Apple Bread

applebread2
Mmmmmm…. nothing says cozy, cold weather fare to me like spicy quick breads with buttery streusel toppings for tea time. This is the moistest, most delicious apple bread I’ve ever had, and once again, proves that when it comes to some foods, less really is more. This makes a beautiful breakfast, lunchbox treat, after school snack, picnic meal (when paired with sharp cheddar cheese), dessert (with a dollop of fresh whipped cream or a scoop of ice cream) or teacher’s gift for Christmas! This bread will keep for a week in an air-tight container in the refrigerator.
for the bread:
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 lb. + 3 Tablespoons real, unsalted butter, softened
1/2 teaspoon pure almond extract
2 large eggs
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tart green apple, unpeeled and grated
1 sweet red apple, unpeeled and grated
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Butter and flour a 12 x 4 inch loaf pan. In a large bowl, beat brown sugar, butter and almond extract until light and smooth. Add eggs, and beat well. Add flour, baking powder, baking soda, cardamom, cinnamon, cloves and salt. Stir until just combined and everything is evenly incorporated. Fold in apples just until evenly incorporated. Using a rubber spatula, scrape batter into prepared pan.
for the streusel topping:
2 Tablespoons real, unsalted butter
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 Tablespoons brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Mix all streusel ingredients together, using a fork, until large crumbs form. Sprinkle them evenly over apple bread batter.
Bake bread for 45 to 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean when tested.
Cool for 10 to 15 minutes before gently turning out onto a plate. Serve slightly warm or at room temperature.
Enjoy!

Fried Bacon Wrapped Eggs

enhanced-buzz-29730-1395861797-15

INGREDIENTS:

4 soft boiled eggs
8 strips of bacon
1 cup of italian seasoning breadcrumbs
1 raw egg

DIRECTIONS:

1. Wrap each egg carefully with two strips of bacon. Make sure to tuck ends in so that the bacon stays secure and covers the entire egg. I found it best to wrap one piece horizontally and the second piece vertically.
2. Heat pan being used for frying with oil, about 1 1/2 to 2 inches deep.
3. Beat raw egg in a small bowl and set aside. Place bread crumbs in separate bowl and set aside.
4. Take bacon egg and dip in raw egg. Then dip into bread crumbs until fully coated. Gently place into hot oil. Cook for a few minutes on each side until breadcrumbs turn brown and bacon is cooked. You may want to do a test egg that you can cut open to check the doneness of the bacon to determine the number of minutes you need to fry your remaining eggs as it is hard to see when the bacon is done cooking. Serve immediately.

Buttermilk Cinnamon Rolls

Buttermilk Cinnamon Pecan Rolls

Author: 
Recipe type: Breakfast
Serves: 8
Ingredients
  • For Cake Pan:
  • 1 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • Butter Pecan Spread Ingredients:
  • 4 Tbsp butter, softened
  • ⅓ cup brown sugar, packed
  • pinch of salt
  • ½ cup pecans, chopped (I chop ours roughly, some very small, some a bit larger. Chop yours to your liking.)
  • Filling Ingredients:
  • ¾ cup brown sugar, packed
  • 3 tsp cinnamon
  • pinch of allspice
  • pinch of salt
  • ⅛ tsp ground cloves
  • 1 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • Dough Ingredients:
  • 2 & ½ cups flour
  • 3 Tbsp sugar
  • 1 & ¼ tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 & ¼ cup buttermilk
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 4 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted (for dough)
  • 2 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted (for rolled out dough)
  • Optional Buttermilk Glaze:
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 3 Tbsp buttermilk
  • ½ tsp vanilla
  • 1 Tbsp butter, softened
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 425°. Melt 1 Tbsp butter and spread it on the bottom of a round cake pan. Set aside.
  2. Make Butter Pecan Spread: Mix butter, brown sugar and salt until thoroughly mixed. Spread on bottom of cake pan. Spread pecans evenly over the mixture. Set aside.
  3. Make Filling: Mix all filling ingredients together and set aside.
  4. Make Dough: Mix the dry ingredients together in a large bowl. In smaller bowl, whisk the buttermilk, vanilla, and 4 Tbsp melted butter. Make a well in the middle of the dry mix and pour the buttermilk mixture in the well. Gently fold together until just combined. DO NOT OVER MIX. Kneed the dough just until it becomes a ball (again, don't over work the dough). Place on floured surface and roll out/spread to a 12 x 8-inch rough rectangle. If it is too sticky just add a bit of flour to it/your hands. Spread 2 Tbsp melted butter all over the rolled out dough. Then spread the filling over the dough leaving about a ½ inch perimeter around the edges of dough. Pack down the filling with your hands.
  5. Carefully roll up the dough starting on the long end (the 12-inch side nearest you), making it as tight as you can. Pinch the seams together tightly and then roll it so seam is down. Cut into 8 equal pieces. Place pieces in the cake pan (with a spiral side facing up)--7 in a circle and one in the middle.
  6. Pour or brush 2 Tbsp melted butter over the rolls and bake for 20-25 minutes. Don't overcook or they will harden. Let cool for about 5 minutes. Serve warm either by scooping out rolls and flipping onto a plate (and drizzling individual roll with glaze if you choose) OR by turning out all rolls onto a platter (and drizzling glaze on all if you choose).
  7. Glaze: Mix all glaze ingredients together and pour over warm rolls.
