So Simple a 6 year Old Could Make These!

Who says you have to make everything from scratch? I am all for making sure I have great food for my family made with fresh ingredients, but I totally remember those days when just getting everyone up and in the car at the same time was a huge feat! Being able to bake a little something yummy to take to early morning soccer games or for a fun alternative to basic toast? Yeah..that is not always an option.

I love being able to have things on hand that I can make up quickly. Better yet, I love having things on hand that my kids could help me with.

Spending time together in the kitchen created some of the most memorable times for us when our kids were growing up. I guess you could say we were very food and family focused!  Being able to have a few things up my sleeve helped me save time as well as money because we weren’t swinging through someplace to grab a snack. And I really love that this recipe is a pretty low mess option! Plus, kids LOVE to eat what they help to create!

So apron up and let’s back something fabulous with those we love.

This is what Tbsp.com has to say about this recipe inspired by Buns In My Oven.

These gooey, sweet little muffins are the perfect cure to a dreary morning. They’re full of a cinnamon and caramel and topped with a simple sweet icing.

Quick Tip: you can also make this in a Bundt cake pan.

These Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls Put Mom’s Diner on the Map

Just the color of these fall cinnamon rolls makes me happy! Everywhere you turn there are pumpkin inspired foods, snacks, and recipe. There is no way I could ever make all the things I want to make, but I will try! I thought at one point during my fall baking I would begin to get tired of pumpkin but I have found the opposite to be true. The more new recipes I try, the more I am in love with the amazing and multifunctional gourd!

I used to think that pumpkins were just for carving or decorating, but now when I go shopping all I can imagine is how many cups of fresh puree can I make. It reminds me of the cartoon when one of the hungry characters sees his friend and all of a sudden they look like a piece of food.
Yeah..that is me looking at a pumpkin. I see the round orange vegetable but what I really am imagining is pumpkin scones, pancakes, or cinnamon rolls.

This is what Christy of The Girl Who Ate Everything had to say about the recipe her friend Ami shared with her.

These Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls With Caramel Frosting are soft and tender pumpkin spiced cinnamon rolls with a sweet caramel icing.

Quick tip: Have a Kitchen Aid? Use the beater for the wet ingredients and switch to the bread dough hook when adding in the flour.

Hot, Spicy, and Loaded With Cheese

Game Night! We loved playing games when I was growing up. Whether is was card games, board games, or party games. Raise your hand if you remember when Pictionary came out! Okay, now raise your hand if you still own an original box of Pictionary. Our kids have loved it when my parents would come over or we would visit them because every night we would play a game. When you are playing games, you have to have good snack food.  It is amazing how much of an appetite you get just shuffling and dealing cards or rolling dice. This is one of those super easy appetizers that you can make ahead so all you have to do is pop in the oven in between rounds of whatever you are playing.

 

If you are out at a bbq, or camping, you can even put a cast iron skillet and set on the grill. Now that would make anyone a happy camper. Leftovers? Just toss into your scrambled eggs first thing in the morning and see how that spices things up!

This is what Sara of Dinner at the Zoo has to say about her fantastic recipe.

“If I’m making this dip for a special occasion, I often prepare the cream cheese mixture in advance, then add the topping right before I’m ready to bake it. Be sure to double the recipe for a crowd because there will be no leftovers!”

GO TO THE NEXT PAGE FOR INGREDIENTS AND DIRECTIONS.

Quick Tip: Instead of just one pan of this dip I usually divide it into two or three smaller ramekins so we can have one dip at each end of the table.

So Good You Might Be Tempted To Lick The Plate

The first time I made this for our kids piano recite dessert table I had a swarm of moms asking for the recipe. It was so yummy, yet it was so simple I was almost afraid to let them in on how easy it was to make. Seriously, I think I saw on of the Grandma’s licking her fork it is that good. You can image my surprise the next time a recital rolled around and the piano teacher gave me the invitation with a yellow sticky note attached asking if I could bring the yummy dessert I had brought before.

I guess you could say it really was my encore performance!

I always thought that if you were going to make a dessert it needed to be labor intensive and time consuming, but this dessert is so easy it is almost a sin to tell people you make it from scratch.

Here is what Lidia of Yummiest Foods.com has to say about her crowd pleasing recipe.

“Chocolate Lush – perfect combination of cream cheese, cool whip and pecans! This recipe is very easy to make and it is so delicious! Layer after layer of chocolate fantasy – Chocolate Lush!”

GO TO THE NEXT PAGE FOR INGREDIENTS AND DIRECTIONS.

Quick Tip. If you are not a huge Cool Whip person feel free to make up whipped cream and sweeten with powdered sugar.

Perfect Fall Dessert and So Easy To Make

I love fall time. Pulling out favorite sweaters, starting a fire in the fireplace, and eating lots of comfort foot. This classic apple dessert is among my very favorite fall recipes. It combines apples, caramel and oats. Our neighbors had an apple tree and I loved getting apples from her. One year the tree was so full of apples that she told everyone she knew if they wanted apples they should come and get them before the deer ate them up. I made sure to head over and Could not believe how the branches were just drooping under the weight of all the fruit.

Since we lived in the Sierra mountains, the apples needed to be a variety that could withstand frost. They were Arkansas Blacks, and let me tell you, those apples were so hard it was almost impossible to take a bite out of them. Not like the Pink Lady of Honey Crisp Apples. These were super hard and kind of tart, but they made the best pies and crisps. They might have taken a little extra work but we ended up gathering about 2 laundry baskets full!

This is what Lauren has to say about her Applicious dessert.

“My traditional apple crisp recipe has received rave reviews, and this Caramel Pecan Apple Crisp takes my old favorite to a whole new level! “

Quick Tip: Want to add a bit of holiday flare? Toss a handful of fresh cranberries into the apple filling.

Ohh Baby, You Are On a Roll. This Pumpkin Dessert Is Addictive

Ohh my goodness! Fall is here and the thought of sipping on hot apple cider with a dash of fresh nutmeg, watching football, and enjoying the cooler weather makes me want to jump into a pile of freshly raked leaves! But the really awesome thing worth FALLing for is this amazing recipe. I have to admit, I had never tried making a roll before.

Sure, I would oh and awe over magazines with pictures of pumpkin rolls, but the thought of actually making one seemed like so much work and something that might only be successful in a “test kitchen”.

I actually read the directions three times just to make sure I understood what I needed to do. The “Roll up in a powdered sugar tea towel kind of stumped me at first. When I rolled up the cake with the filling and it came out perfect I realized the wisdom in letting it cool like that.

Later when I watched a baking show I noticed that several of the contestants just rolled up the cake with the filling after it cooled. Unfortunately, the cake cracked. This method helps you achieve bakery perfection with your very first attempt.

This is what Marci says about this dessert recipe.

-This year I took the challenge. My only thought after finishing up the project was “What took me so long to try it!”

GO TO THE NEXT PAGE FOR INGREDIENTS AND DIRECTIONS.

Quick Tip: You can buy canned pumpkin puree or get a little crazy and make your own from fresh baking pumpkins.

What Happens When A Starbuck Pumpkin Spice Latte Collides With Bread Pudding?

I hadn’t really planned to make a pumpkin bread pudding, but sometimes when you are trying something new and using the ingredients on hand you just stumble across something absolutely mind boggling. That is what happened with this recipe. I had just made some pumpkin muffins the week before and had a half of a large can of pumpkin puree left in the fridge. I also had a loaf of bread that was starting to get a little stale so instead of just chucking it, I made some bread pudding. Pumpkin bread pudding!

It was such a huge hit my family asked me to make it again. This time we had company over and they wanted to know if I would be willing to share the recipe. Yikes! I didn’t even know exactly what the recipe was so I made it again and this time wrote everything down.

Basically, if you have what you need for a pumpkin pie plus some bread you have what you need for this comfort food. And trust me, I have even used day old French baguettes and they worked just fine. Which I think is one of the beautiful aspects about bread pudding. It is simple and resourceful.

GO TO THE NEXT PAGE FOR INGREDIENTS AND DIRECTIONS.

Quick Tip: I love making individual desserts when company comes over. You can divide this into small ramekins or even small wide mouthed canning jars.  For smaller jars you might want to put filled jars or ramekins on a tray and add in ½ inch water to keep from drying out.

And You Thought Starbucks Had The Corner On Pumpkin Latte Flavors

I LOVE pumpkin anything! In fact, I love pumpkin flavors so much I decided to make my own puree by starting out with a fresh pumpkin and let me tell you, it was so good. I ended up going back and getting several more baking pumpkins, cooking them up, and putting the puree in freezer bags. They have been in there since last fall and I an anxious to break out a few new pumpkin recipes to celebrate with comfort food time of year!

My mom is usually our pumpkin pie baker. She has the magic touch when it comes to the perfect flaky crusts. If something happens that she doesn’t make dessert we are kind of up the creek without a paddle because I just don’t know if I could pull it off. But having a different dessert that is a bit easier, well that is okay with me. This is like having pie with whip cream all in one dish.

Whether you are using fresh pumpkin or canned puree, you are sure to be a big fan of this no-bake dessert that just screams “Welcome FALL!”

Sorry, I can barely contain my pumpkin obsession!

This is what Kristyn of Lil Luna has to say about this dessert.

“This next dessert is one that EVERY pumpkin lover will enjoy. It’s one of those Layered desserts that everyone devours during the summer time, and I’m calling it Pumpkin Delight! With a pecan layer, cream cheese layer, pumpkin and pudding layer and a Cool Whip layer on top, it’s sure to be a hit at your home!”

GO TO THE NEXT PAGE FOR INGREDIENTS AND DIRECTIONS.

Quick Tip: You can make this in an oblong pan or divide it into 2 spring form pans. How is that for being as close to traditional pumpkin pie as you can get?

Tricia Yearwood Shares Some Of Her Southern Style Recipes On The Internet

I grew up making cobblers just like my grandmother used to make. She started with a dough that is half biscuit and half pastry, rolled out and then use to line the baking dish. Then she spooned fruit in and piece some of the dough on top. Of course it couldn’t go into the oven until pats of butter and a sprinkling of sugar was added.

Tricia’s  recipe really caught me off guard. I had to read it twice to make sure I wasn’t doing something wrong but I saw such great reviews and, let’s just be honest, Tricia Yearwood is so adorable I just couldn’t resist making one of her recipes.

The reason this crust is so flavorful is that it has peach flavor all the way through. Literally! The batter starts on the bottom and rises to the top as it is baked so you have the taste of fruit in every single bite.

The other thing that surprised me was that Tricia didn’t use fresh fruit for this cobbler! I LOVE fresh fruit cobblers but fruit isn’t always in season and sometimes you have to just use what you have on hand.

GO TO THE NEXT PAGE FOR INGREDIENTS AND DIRECTIONS.

Quick Tip: If you want to use fresh peaches or nectarines go ahead and slice up enough for 4 cups. Make a simple syrup out of ½ cup sugar and 1 cup of water. Let boil then add sliced fruit.

I Couldn’t Believe My Eyes When I saw My Grandmother Pull This From The Oven

I just can’t get enough of baked apples! Anything with baked apples, oats, and cinnamon just reminds me of fall. It is my favorite kind of comfort food and I never get tired of it.. EVER! I know this recipe is supposed to be for a dessert, but with all the apples, eggs, and oats it should count for a breakfast food! Because seriously when I smelled this baking in the oven the last thing I wanted to do was wait until after dinner. I was ready to just grab a fork and cut myself a big piece.

My Great Grandma Upton would have loved this recipe. She cooked a lot of her meals in a cast iron skillet that looked like it could have weighed as much as she did. It had been seasoned from years of use and she was careful to make sure to clean it up and dry it before putting it back in her oven where she kept it.

I love this recipe because it really isn’t a pie or a cake, but can be sliced up in wedges and served with a dollop of Cool-whip, whipping cream, or even a scoop of vanilla ice-cream. Go ahead and serve this right from the skillet onto the plates. That is exactly what my Great Grandmother would have done as well.

GO TO THE NEXT PAGE FOR INGREDIENTS AND DIRECTIONS.

Quick Tip: Make sure you get good baking apple for this dessert. I love Pink Lady and Honey Crisp, but your just can’t go wrong with Granny Smith. And I don’t peel my apples when I bake them. I use the apples skins and all!
