Easy Caramel Apple Pie Bread Pudding Recipe

by Rebecca September 13, 2022
written by Rebecca

This is an amazing recipe that combined apple pie and bread pudding. You can also assemble the pudding the night before and bake it the next day for an easy and quick breakfast. This pudding is also great to enjoy as a dessert with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream on top.

Ingredients

2 eggs

8 c. bread – cubed

3 medium apples – peeled, cored, and chopped

1 c. milk

1 c. vanilla yoghurt

2 teaspoons cinnamon, divided

1/2 cup sugar, plus 2 tablespoons

1/4 c. raisins

1/2 teaspoon nutmeg

Sauce:

1 c. heavy cream

1 c. brown sugar

1 c. unsalted butter

How to make Easy Caramel Apple Pie Bread Pudding

Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 350 degrees. Using cooking spray, grease a 9 x 13-inch baking dish.

Step 2: Place the yoghurt, milk, eggs, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, nutmeg, and half a cup of sugar in a large bowl. Mix well until combined. Next, add the apples and raisins. Mix again, then fold in the bread cubes. Into the prepared pan, pour the mixture.

Step 3: Whisk 2 tablespoons of sugar with 1 teaspoon of cinnamon in a small bowl until well blended.

Step 4: On top of the bread pudding, sprinkle the sugar-cinnamon mixture. Place the dish into the preheated oven and bake for about 30 to 40 minutes or until the pudding is puffed and golden brown.

Step 5: In the meantime, prepare the caramel sauce. Place the butter, heavy cream, and brown sugar in a heavy saucepan over medium-low heat. Mix well and bring the sauce to a boil. Once boiling, adjust the heat to low and allow the sauce to simmer for about 5 minutes or until thickened.

Step 6: Over the pudding, pour the sauce.

Step 7: Slice and serve the caramel apple pie bread pudding with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream on top. Enjoy!

Notes:

If time permits, leave the bread cubes out for a couple of hours. This will get the bread cubes nice and dry. Alternatively, you can scatter them on a baking sheet and bake for about 10 to 15 minutes at 350 degrees until dry but not toasted.

You can prep the pudding the night before and bake it in the oven the next day.

OLD FASHIONED SALMON PATTIES

by Rebecca September 13, 2022
written by Rebecca

These are kid-approved salmon patties that you can easily make using just a few basic ingredients. These delicious classic salmon patties are an amazing weeknight entree that you can prep and get on the table quickly. Made with shredded pink salmon, cornmeal, egg, diced onions, buttermilk, and flour. These simple ingredients are combined, formed into patties, and then fried until the crust is browned. To serve, these salmon patties are great to pair with either creamed peas, mashed potato cakes, Grandma’s deviled eggs, buttermilk mac & cheese, or coleslaw. You can also top these salmon patties with your favorite toppings for that extra layer of deliciousness!

Ingredients

2 tbsp diced onions

6 oz. pink salmon

1 tbsp buttermilk

4 tbsp all-purpose flour

2 tbsp cornmeal

Salt and pepper

Canola oil

1 large egg

HOW TO MAKE OLD-FASHIONED SALMON PATTIES

Step 1: After draining the pink salmon, de-bone them and shred using two forks.

Step 2: In a bowl, place the shredded salmons, onions, salt, and pepper. Mix well.

Step 3: Beat the egg and milk in a different bowl, then add this to the salmon mix. Mix well until combined. Next, add the buttermilk, cornmeal, and flour. Mix again until well blended.

Step 4: In a medium-sized iron skillet, heat 1/4 c of canola oil on medium heat. Once the oil is hot, drop spoonfuls of the salmon mix, then slightly flatten them. Fry the salmon patties for about 1 minute per side until the brown crust forms. On a paper towel-lined plate, transfer the fried salmon patties.

Step 5: Serve the salmon patties right away with your favorite toppings. Enjoy!

Tips:

Avoid flipping the patties multiple times when drying them. Cook the first side, undisturbed before flipping. Doing so will keep the patties from falling apart.

Side Dishes:

Pair these salmon patties with creamed peas, mashed potato cakes, Grandma’s deviled eggs, buttermilk Mac & cheese, or coleslaw.

You have tasty, fun, made-from-scratch Payday candy bars!

I love these homemade Payday Candy Bars. In my opinion, they are a million better than the original! If PayDays are your favorite, I am pretty sure that you’ll enjoy this homemade version. This version is almost unfussy, requires little effort to make, and guarantees one of the best candy bars you’ll ever make!

To make these candy bars, we start with peanuts, then the filling, and topping it all off with the remaining peanuts. The filling is made with a combination of unsalted butter, condensed milk, and marshmallows. If desired, you can wrap these candy bars and give them as gifts.

Danish Butter Cookies

by Rebecca September 13, 2022
written by Rebecca

Prep time: 30 mins | Cook time: 15 mins | Total time: 45 mins | Yield: 36 COOKIES

If you love the iconic Royal Dansk, I am sure that you’ll be impressed with these Danish Butter Cookies! They taste the same as the ones in the blue tin. The bonus is this recipe is super simple to make and guarantees delicious piped butter cookies!

Ingredients

1 egg

1 c. (227 grams) unsalted butter, room temperature

½ c. (100 grams) granulated sugar

Granulated sugar, for sprinkling

1 ½ tsp (1.5 tsp) vanilla extract

2 c. (284 grams) all-purpose flour

¼ tsp (0.25 tsp) salt

How to make Danish Butter Cookies

Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 350 degrees F. Using silicone baking mats or parchment paper, line two baking sheets.

Step 2: On medium speed, beat the butter and sugar for about 1 to 2 minutes until fluffy. Then, add the salt along with the vanilla and egg. Beat again for another minute until well blended. Adjust the speed to low and slowly add in the flour, beating until mostly mixed. Then, using a rubber spatula, stir the mixture until completely combined. At this point, the dough should be thick.

Step 3: To a decorating bag fitted with a large open star tip, transfer the dough. On the parchment paper or silicone mats, pipe the dough into 2-inch circles and sprinkle them with sugar.

Step 4: Place the pan into the preheated oven, one at a time, and bake the dough for about 15 to 17 minutes until light golden brown. Remove from the oven when done and let the cookies cool completely.

Notes:

For this recipe, I recommend using good-quality butter.

In place of vanilla extract, you can use an equal amount of vanilla bean paste. This will give the cookies a hint of vanilla.

You can use Ateco #827 or Wilton 1M piping tip.

To portion out the dough, you can also use a cookie press if desired.

Before storing or consuming the cookies, let them cool completely first.

Place the cookies in an airtight container and store them for up to 1 week at room temperature or freeze for up to 3 months.

Classic Shortbread Cookies

by Rebecca September 13, 2022
written by Rebecca

Prep time: 2 hrs 20 mins | Cook time: 10 mins | Inactive: 2 hrs | Yield: 24 cookies

These classic shortbread cookies have a wonderful and delicious flavor that everyone loves! The play between sugar and salt is exciting. And the buttery flavor and crumbly texture of these cookies are to die for!

These crisp-crumbly cookies are incredibly easy and quick to make. You do not need any fancy ingredients. Just mix the simple ingredients, and shape them into your desired form, then bake. For great results, keep the batter in the fridge for 2 hours before baking. If desired, you can also sprinkle the cookies with large crystal sugar before baking.

INGREDIENTS

1/2 c. granulated sugar

1 c. butter, softened

2 c. all-purpose flour

Pinch of salt

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Large crystal sugar for garnish (optional)

1/2 to 1 tablespoon milk, only if needed

How to Make Classic Shortbread Cookies

Step 1: Cream the butter and sugar in a large bowl. Then, whisk in the vanilla and salt. To the butter mixture, add the flour. If the mixture is too dry, add a couple of tablespoons of milk. At this point, the dough should have a dry Play-Doh texture.

Step 2: Roll the dough on a floured surface to half-inch thickness. Then, cut the dough into 2-inch rounds. If desired, you can cut the dough into other shapes with a cookie cutter. Or press the cookies into cookie molds. On an ungreased cookie sheet, place the cookies. Keep them in the fridge for 2 hours.

Step 3: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 350 degrees F.

Step 4: Five minutes before baking, remove the cookies from the fridge. If desired, you can sprinkle each cookie with large crystal sugar.

Step 5: Place in the preheated oven and bake for about 10 minutes or until the bottoms of the cookies are just starting to turn golden. When done, take the cookies out of the oven and onto a cooling rack. Allow the cookies to cool for about 15 minutes.

Step 6: Serve and enjoy!
