APPLE FRITTER CAKE

by Rebecca April 5, 2020
written by Rebecca

An apple fritter in one little box is like a fall celebration. Sweet doughy treat, full of tender apples, also, the sugary glaze on top of the bread adds to its taste. For you, we have an option that hits the same notes, but which is much easier to share and make at home – Apple Fritter Pull-Apart Bread.

Ingredients:

For the Filling:

(1) heaping cup of sliced apples

1/3 cup sugar

1/4 tsp cinnamon

small pinch freshly grated nutmeg

2 tbsp cornstarch

2 tsp water

1/2 cup brown sugar

1/2 tsp cinnamon

For the Cake:

1/3 cup butter

3/4 cup sugar

1/2 cup applesauce

1 tsp vanilla

(2) eggs

2 1/4 cups flour

1 tsp baking powder

1 tsp baking soda

1 tsp salt

1 tsp cinnamon

1 cup greek yogurt, if desired: you can use plain yogurt or sour cream

For the Glaze:

2 cups powdered sugar

1 tsp vanilla

6 tbsp milk

Directions:

For the Filling:

Combine apples, sugar, tea, cinnamon, and cornstarch into a small saucepan to make your fill. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes over low heat, stirring continuously until the sauce is thickened and the apples are a little soft. Set aside and let it rest to cool. Add and mix brown sugar and cinnamon in a bowl until well combined and set aside.

For the Cake:

Preheat oven at about 350 degrees. Grease and flour a baking dish 9×13. Set aside.

Add and cream the butter and sugar for about 3 minutes, until light and fluffy. Add vanilla and applesauce and mix until combined. Beat the eggs, one at a time, and beat well after each addition.

Sift the ingredients together to dry. Add the dry ingredients into the batter in three parts alternating with the yogurt in two parts, starting with the dry ingredients and ending with them. Beat well until combine.

Spoon half the batter into the prepared casserole. Carefully spoon the cooled mixture of apples over the batter and spread as evenly as possible. Sprinkle 2/3 of brown cinnamon sugar mixture over apples and cover with the remaining batter. Sprinkle over top of the remaining brown sugar-cinnamon mixture.

Bake for 45-55 minutes until the toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

For Glaze:

Create the glaze when the cake bakes. Mix the powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk in a bowl, until you reach the consistency you like. When the cake comes out of the oven, pour out onto the hot cake immediately but carefully.

Try pouring in as evenly as possible. Tilt the cake to spread the glaze uniformly. I even poured out a few that pooled at the corners and repoured the top. Let the cake sit there for a while to set the glaze.

BANANA BREAD BROWNIES

by Rebecca April 5, 2020
written by Rebecca

The gratifying volume and moistness of the brownie, the old-mode, homey taste of banana bread, and the high sky of the banana cake. Whenever I’ve got ripe bananas that we don’t immediately use, I peel them, cut and freeze them, and so our freezer’s almost always stashed on them while I don’t always have fresh ripe bananas in hand. See the following tips to cook with frozen bananas when doing the same thing.

Bananas offer baked goods natural sweetness, happiness, family flavors, and humidity. You’ll love how they seamlessly blend in those blondies with the other ingredients. Furthermore, the bananas are packed with fiber and potassium.

Banana Bread Brownies Recipe

Banana Bread Brownies Recipe

Ingredients:

1-1/2 c. sugar

1 c. sour cream

1/2 c. butter softened

2 eggs

1-3/4 (3 or 4) of ripe bananas, mashed

2 tsp. vanilla extract

2 c. all-purpose flour

1 tsp. baking soda

3/4 tsp. salt

1/2 c. chopped walnuts (optional)

Brown Butter Frosting:

1/2 c. butter

4 c. powdered sugar

1-1/2 tsp. vanilla extract

3 tbsp. milk

Directions:

Preheat oven at about 375 degrees. Grease and flour 15 x10-inch jelly roll pan. Add sugar, savory cream, butter, and beat eggs together in a large bowl for the bars. Banana blend and extract vanilla. Combine flour, baking soda, salt, and mix for 1 minute. Stir walnuts.

Spread the batter into a pan evenly. Bake until golden brown for 20 or 25 minutes.

In a large casserole, heat butter for frosting until it is boiled over medium heat. Let the butter becomes brown and immediately remove it from the heat.

Add sugar, vanilla extract, milk, and powdered sugar. Smoothly whisk together (thicker than a glaze, but thinner than frosting). Spread the brown butter over the warm bars with a spatula (it will be easier to frost while the bars remain warm).

Tip:

Store brownies for 4 days at room temperature in an airtight storage container.

In an airtight freezer-safe storage container, place brownie in the freezer until 3 months (frost or unfrosted). Let cool down overnight in the fridge.

LOADED BAKED POTATO SALAD

by Rebecca April 3, 2020
written by Rebecca

Loaded Baked Potato Salad looks like a pleasant summer side dish that is always a hit on vacation! The easy recipe can be made for large gatherings, because during the critical few minutes before serving it does not take a burner on your stovetop or an oven spot and tastes stunning. Moreover, you have no big potato bowl and no five small bowls of cushions to be added to the party.

For two reasons, this recipe differs from traditional potato salad. First of all, the potatoes are baked rather than boiled, making it even easier for you because you don’t have to look at boiling water. Second, this potato salad bakery is more dressed like you would like to top a potato: sour cream, salt and pepper, cheese, ointments, and bacon instead of tossing it in a mayo/mustard, pickles and hard-baked egg, as you would with traditional potato salad.

Baked Potato Salad Recipe

Baked Potato Salad Recipe

Ingredients:

8 medium Russet Potatoes

1 cup sour cream

1/2 cup mayonnaise

1 package of bacon, cooked and crumbled

1 small onion, chopped

Chives, to taste

1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

Salt and Pepper to taste

Directions:

Wash the potatoes and cut them into bite-sizes. Cover with water and boil for 20-25 minutes until fork-tender. Do not overcook it!

Drain the potatoes and let it cool. Once they cooled enough, transfer it in another bowl and refrigerate it to cool completely. This gives the dairy ingredients an excellent texture and prevents it from warming up or melting the cheese. You don’t need to cool potatoes if you serve this salad hot, just skip this step.

In a bowl combine mayo and sour cream. Add the onion, chives, and cheese to the potatoes. Add salt and pepper to taste (I’m using a pepper grinder, a sea salt grinder for ALL. I think the taste is far better than using regular salt and pepper).

Add extra cheese and bacon before serving

Moist Pumpkin Bread

by Rebecca April 3, 2020
written by Rebecca

We are the kind of people that look forward to autumn throughout the year. In fresh-baked treats, we love the bright colors of fall, the crispness to the air, and the warm spices. Of course, we also love anything flavored with pumpkin, which is why this recipe for pumpkin bread does hit the spot. I already made various versions of pumpkin bread in the past, with fruit or nuts baked in the loaves. But the classic moist pumpkin bread doesn’t get any better than any version.

It’s easy to make — just a bit of mixing and stirring, pop it in the oven, and you’ll have a house smelling of sweet autumn spices and two delicious pumpkin bread. The next time you need to heal a pumpkin spice craving, grab a slice of this tasty bread – you will never regret it.

Ingredients:

1 cup brown sugar

(2) eggs

1⁄2 cup vegetable oil

1⁄3 cup water

(1) (15 oz) pumpkin puree

1 3⁄4 cups plain flour

1 tsp baking soda

1⁄2 tsp baking powder

1 tsp salt

1⁄4 tsp nutmeg

1 tsp cinnamon

1 tsp pumpkin pie spice

For the Topping:

1 tbsp butter

1⁄4 cup brown sugar

3 tbsp milk

1⁄4 cup pecans, chopped

Directions:

Add and beat the eggs in a medium-sized bowl and mix them with sugar, butter, water, and pumpkin.

Add and combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, nutmeg, cinnamon, and spice pumpkin pie into another bowl. Just mix wet ingredients with dry ingredients before the merge. Do not overmix.

Pour into a floured, greased loaf pan. This bread recipe fits perfectly in a loaf pan of 8.5 x 4.5. Bake in the oven for 50-60 minutes at about 325-degree.

For the topping: Add and mix the butter, brown sugar, and milk in a small saucepan. Boil only for 2 1/2 minutes, while constantly stirring.

Drizzle immediately over the loaf. Sprinkle with chopped pecans and lightly squeeze pecans into the top.

Wrap in and store for serving until the next day, it will keep the humidity inside. If the bread “sweats” while being wrapped, it is okay.

Sweet Potatoes Recipe

Serves 2 | Prep Time: 5 minutes | Total Time: 45 minutes

INGREDIENTS

2 medium sweet potatoes

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Salt and black pepper, to taste

2 tablespoons butter, melted

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

¼ cup chopped pecans

¼ cup maple syrup

½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract

½ teaspoon kosher salt

DIRECTIONS

Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit (218 degrees Celsius).

Place a sweet potato between two chopsticks for stability and guidance. Every 1/4-inch along the length of the potato, slice 7/8 or until the knife hits the chopsticks. Repeat with the other potato.

Brush the potatoes with the vegetable oil. Place in a very small baking dish and season with salt and pepper.

Now, bake the sweet potatoes for 30 to 40 minutes, or until soft.

Remove the sweet potatoes from the oven, and increase the oven temperature to 450 degrees Fahrenheit (230 degrees Celsius).

In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, ground cinnamon, chopped pecans, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and kosher salt. Stir to mix.

Spoon the maple syrup mixture over and in between the baked sweet potato slices, pushing the pecan pieces in between each slice.

Return the filled sweet potatoes to the oven and bake an additional 8 to 10 minutes.

Remove the baked sweet potatoes from the oven and spoon any cooking liquid over the potatoes. Allow them to cool slightly before serving.

Ingredients

  • 2 medium sweet potatoes
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ cup chopped pecans
  • ¼ cup maple syrup
  • ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit (218 degrees Celsius).

Place a sweet potato between two chopsticks for stability and knife guidance. Every ¼-inch along the length of the sweet potato, slice ⅞ of the way through, or until the knife hits the chopsticks. (The chopsticks will help prevent the knife from cutting all the way through the sweet potato.) Repeat with the second potato.

Brush the sweet potatoes with the vegetable oil. Place in a small baking dish and season with salt and pepper to taste.

Bake the sweet potatoes for 30 to 40 minutes, or until soft.

Remove the sweet potatoes from the oven, and increase the oven temperature to 450 degrees Fahrenheit (230 degrees Celsius).

In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, ground cinnamon, chopped pecans, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and kosher salt. Stir to mix.

Spoon the maple syrup mixture over and in between the baked sweet potato slices, pushing the pecan pieces in between each slice.

Return the filled sweet potatoes to the oven and bake an additional 8 to 10 minutes.

Remove the baked sweet potatoes from the oven and spoon any cooking liquid over the potatoes. Allow them to cool slightly before serving.

How perfect for autumn are these sweet potatoes? Not only are the root veggies just about to come into season, they pair so well with every dish we start craving around this time of year— and in turn, this maple pecan butter pairs so perfectly with them.

Sausage, Onions, Peppers, And Potato Bake

by Rebecca April 3, 2020
written by Rebecca

Reasons why I love this recipe:

Smoked Sausage – If you have never had smoked hotdog (of ANY sort) you are passing up a great opportunity. The taste and kind of smoked hotdog are extraordinary.

Potatoes – Potatoes are my preferred vegetable. They are stacked with potassium and keeps you very full. Potatoes have more potassium than a banana does.

Onions – When cooked onions in the oven they nearly turn out like caramelized onions that you would make in a skillet. These three ingredients are so easy and basic, but they make the most delicious dish!
