Apple Puffed Pancake

Apple Puffed Pancake

This is my a recipe I got from my sister's cooking blog. Jordan and Afton loves it. I try to make it a lot for Sunday breakfast, it is kind of easy. I find that a blender does work the best.

Yummy...I usually tweak the butter & sugar in this recipe. Here's the original.

6 eggs
1 1/2 cups milk
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup flour
1 TBSP sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon
pinch grated nutmeg
1/2 cup butter
4 apples peeled & thinly sliced
1 TBSP brown sugar

Preheat to 425 degrees
Combine eggs, milk & vanilla in a blender
Add flour, granulated sugar, salt, cinnamon & nutmeg
blend
Place butter in 9x13 pan put in oven until melted
Place apples in baking dish & cook for 4 mins
Pour batter over apples & sprinkle brown sugar
cook for 20 mins

Irish Soda Muffins

I made this for St Patty's dinner last week, and Lara requested that I post it. This a really good every day muffin too, I love the flavor that the sour cream gives. Remember this recipe only yield 6, so you might have to double or triple it. Enjoy!

I got this from Taste of Home magazine Fed/Mar 2007 issue

Irish Soda Muffins

1 cup plus 2 tablespoons all purpose flour
1/4 cup plus 1 teaspoon sugar divided
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons beaten egg
1/3 cup raisins

In a small bowl, combine the flour, 1/4 cup sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In another bowl, whisk the sour cream, oil and egg; stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Fold in raisins.

Fill six greased or paper-lined muffin cups half full. Sprinkle with remaining sugar. Bake at 400 degrees for 15-18 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack. Serve Warm. Yield: 6 Muffins.
