Cheesy Oatmeal Patties

Ingredients

For the Patties:

• • 1 cup (90g) oatmeal – Oatmeal serves as the base for the patties, providing fiber and a wholesome texture.
  • 100g (1 cup) mozzarella cheese, shredded – Mozzarella cheese adds a creamy and gooey texture to the patties when cooked.
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped – Fresh parsley not only adds color but also a burst of freshness.

• • 2 large eggs – The eggs help bind the ingredients together, ensuring the patties hold their shape while cooking.
  • ½ teaspoon salt – Enhances the flavor of the patties.
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper – Adds a mild spice and balances the other flavors.

• ½ teaspoon dry garlic (or garlic powder) – Garlic powder gives the patties a rich savory taste.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients

Start by measuring and preparing all of your ingredients. Shred the mozzarella cheese if it’s not pre-shredded, and chop the fresh parsley finely. If you’re using garlic powder instead of dry garlic, you can measure that as well.

Step 2: Mix the Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, combine the oatmeal, shredded mozzarella cheese, and chopped parsley. Stir to combine them evenly. Add in the eggs, salt, black pepper, and dry garlic (or garlic powder). Stir everything together until the mixture is uniform. You should have a sticky dough-like consistency at this point, with the oats and cheese binding together thanks to the eggs.

Step 3: Form the Patties

Once the mixture is well combined, take small portions of the dough and shape them into round or oval patties. You can make them as thick or thin as you like, but aim for about 1/2-inch (1.25 cm) thickness for even cooking. Use your hands to press them together, making sure they are compact.

Step 4: Cook the Patties

Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Add a small amount of oil, butter, or cooking spray to the pan. Once the pan is hot, carefully place the patties in the pan, ensuring they don’t touch each other. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy. The cheese will melt inside, creating a deliciously gooey center.

If you’re cooking a larger batch, you can cook the patties in batches, adding more oil or butter to the pan as necessary.

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy

Once the patties are golden brown on both sides, remove them from the pan and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil. Serve them immediately, or allow them to cool slightly. These patties can be enjoyed as they are or paired with a dipping sauce like sour cream, tzatziki, or even a tomato-based salsa.

Rustic Apple Puff Pastry Tart with Cinnamon and Nuts

Ingredients:

• • Apples (medium-sized): 2 pcs
  • Juice of half a lemon
  • Sugar: 2 tbsp

• • Butter: 1 tsp
  • Cinnamon: A pinch
  • Savoiardi biscuits: 4–6 pcs

• • Puff pastry (store-bought or homemade): 1 sheet
  • Apricot jam: 3 tbsp (divided)
  • Milk: 2 tbsp

• Chopped nuts (almonds, walnuts, or hazelnuts): 2 tbsp
• Powdered sugar: For dusting

Steps:

1. 1. Prepare the Apples:
      • • Peel, core, and slice the apples into thin wedges.

       

      • In a medium skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the apple slices, sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice. Cook for 3–4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apples soften slightly and the sugar forms a light caramel glaze.
      • Remove from heat and let the apples cool.

1. Prepare the Puff Pastry Base:
   • • Preheat your oven to 180°C (356°F), ensuring it is a static oven.
     • Roll out the puff pastry sheet on a floured surface. Transfer it to a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
     • Crumble the Savoiardi biscuits and spread them evenly across the center of the puff pastry, leaving a 2-inch border around the edges. This layer helps absorb the juices from the apples, preventing a soggy crust.

    

2. Assemble the Tart:
   • • Arrange the cooled apple slices neatly over the Savoiardi layer. Sprinkle the chopped nuts over the apples for added crunch.
     • Fold the edges of the puff pastry over the apples to create a rustic border. Brush the pastry edges with milk to help them achieve a golden-brown finish.

    

   • Warm 2 tablespoons of apricot jam in the microwave or on the stovetop and brush it lightly over the apples and pastry edges for added sweetness and shine.
3. Bake the Tart:
   • • Place the tart in the preheated oven and bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the puff pastry is golden and flaky.

    

4. Finishing Touches:
   • • Once baked, remove the tart from the oven and let it cool slightly. Warm the remaining apricot jam and brush it over the apples for a glossy finish.
     • Dust the tart with powdered sugar before serving.

    

5. Serve:
   • Slice the tart and serve warm or at room temperature. Pair with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra indulgent treat.

TIPS AND SHARING IDEAS

• • Egg Temperature: Use room temperature eggs for better mixing and a smoother batter. Cold eggs can cause the batter to curdle.
  • Cream Consistency: If the cream layer is too thick, add a little more milk to achieve the desired consistency. It should be smooth and spreadable.
  • Butter Substitutes: For a different flavor profile, try using half butter and half cream cheese in the cream layer.

• • Almond Variations: Toast the almond flakes lightly before adding them to the cake for an enhanced nutty flavor.
  • Mascarpone Substitute: If mascarpone is not available, you can use cream cheese or ricotta cheese mixed with a bit of cream for a similar texture.
  • Baking Dish Size: If you don’t have a 24 x 36 cm baking dish, adjust the baking time according to the size of the dish you use. Smaller dishes will result in a thicker cake and may need more baking time.

• Flavor Enhancements: Add a splash of almond extract to the batter for a more intense almond flavor. You can also sprinkle a bit of cinnamon on top before baking.
• Serving Suggestions: Serve this cake with a side of fresh berries or a dollop of whipped cream for added freshness and flavor.
• Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The flavors will continue to develop, making the cake even tastier the next day.

Say Goodbye to Store-Bought Bread: Master the Art of Quick Homemade Bread in Just 5 Minute

Are you tired of running to the store every time you crave fresh bread? Say no more! With this easy and foolproof recipe, you can whip up delicious homemade bread in just five minutes of prep time. No fancy equipment required, just a few simple ingredients and a desire for freshly baked goodness. Let’s dive into the world of baking and discover how you can become a bread-making pro right in your own kitchen.

Importance of Fresh Yeast

Ever wondered why your homemade bread doesn’t turn out as fluffy and delicious as you hoped? The secret lies in the yeast! Using fresh, active dry yeast is crucial for achieving that perfect rise and texture in your bread. Stale or inactive yeast can leave your bread flat and uninspiring. So, always ensure you have fresh yeast on hand and store it properly in the refrigerator to maintain its potency.

Gathering Your Ingredients

• 5.5 cups of flour
• 562.5 ml (2 1/4 cup) of water
• 2 1/4 tsp of active dry yeast
• 1/4 cup of sugar
• 2 tbsp. of olive oil
• 1 tbsp. of salt
• Butter (optional, for topping)

Mixing and Kneading the Dough

Now that we have our ingredients ready, it’s time to get our hands dirty (literally)! Start by dissolving the yeast in warm water with a pinch of sugar. This step ensures that the yeast is activated and ready to work its magic. Once foamy, mix in the flour, sugar, olive oil, and salt until a smooth, slightly sticky dough forms. Knead the dough until it’s elastic and springs back when touched.

Letting the Dough Rise

Patience is key when it comes to bread-making. Allow your dough to rise for about an hour in a warm, draft-free environment. Cover it with a clean towel or plastic wrap to prevent it from drying out. During this time, the yeast will work its magic, causing the dough to double in size and develop those desirable pockets of air that give bread its light and airy texture.

Shaping Your Bread

Once your dough has doubled in size, it’s time to shape it into loaves. Divide the dough into two equal portions and roll each into a rectangle about 20 cm wide. Starting from the shortest side, roll the dough into cylinders to create your loaves. Place them in oiled molds, cover, and let them rise for another hour.

Second Rise and Preparing to Bake

As your loaves undergo their second rise, preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F). Once they’ve doubled in size again, brush the tops with melted butter for added flavor and a golden finish. This step is optional but highly recommended for that extra touch of indulgence.

The Aroma of Freshly Baked Bread

As your loaves bake in the oven, your kitchen will be filled with the irresistible aroma of freshly baked bread. There’s something truly magical about the scent of warm bread wafting through the air, signaling that a delicious treat is on the horizon.

Optional Butter Topping

For an extra indulgent touch, why not slather your freshly baked bread with a generous layer of butter? Not only does it add richness and flavor, but it also gives your bread a beautiful golden sheen that’s sure to impress.

Baking Your Bread

After 30 to 35 minutes in the oven, your bread should emerge golden brown and irresistibly fragrant. Remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly before slicing into thick, pillowy slices. Whether enjoyed warm with a pat of butter or used to make your favorite sandwiches, this homemade bread is sure to delight your taste buds.

Enjoying Your Homemade Delight

Congratulations, you’ve just mastered the art of quick homemade bread in just five minutes of prep time! With this foolproof recipe, you’ll never have to rely on store-bought bread again. So gather your ingredients, roll up your sleeves, and get ready to enjoy the simple pleasure of freshly baked bread whenever you please.
