    Deep Dish Apple Crisp

    Deep Dish Apple Crisp

    The Deep Dish Apple Crisp is really tasty! Over a light pie crust, a thick layer of apples, cinnamon, and sweet oats is cooked. In our home, this pie is a falltime favorite!

    Oh, what a joyous day! I’m excited to spend the weekend with my family and it’s almost Friday! 🙂 But before I do that, I must share this AMAZING recipe that I came up with since I was itching for our beloved apple crisp pizza.

    Halfway through creating this delight, I realized my pizza pan was missing (I still don’t know what happened to it, ugh). So, I grabbed a 9-inch deep dish pie plate, and this deep-dish version was formed.

    Components

    1. For a single crust pie, use one nine-inch pastry.
    2. 1/3 cup of sugar, granulated
    3. Three teaspoons of all-purpose flour
    4. one tsp finely ground cinnamon
    5. Peel and cut four medium red delicious apples (you can basically use any kind of apple you choose). We adore how deliciously tart the red apples taste.

    Topping

    1. Half a cup of all-purpose flour
    2. 1/3 cup of well-packed light brown sugar
    3. One-third cup of traditional rolled oats
    4. one tsp finely ground cinnamon
    5. 1/4 cup softened salted butter
    6. One-fourth cup caramel sauce

    Guidelines

    • Fit the dough into a 9-inch deep dish pie plate by rolling it out; flute or fold the edges under. In a medium bowl, mix sugar, flour, and cinnamon. Diced apples with peels added; toss. Spread the apples evenly across the pie shell as you arrange them.
    • In a dish, combine the first five topping ingredients; sprinkle equally over the apples.
    • Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until apples are soft, at 350 degrees Fahrenheit. (To keep the crust from burning, I place a piece of foil over the top during the final ten minutes.) Take out of the oven and cover right away with caramel sauce. Before slicing and serving, let it stand for 15 minutes.
    • Accompany with additional caramel sauce and vanilla gelato.

    Cream Cheese Mints

    A straightforward recipe for classic Cream Cheese Mints! This is my grandmother’s recipe, modified slightly. I offer directions for putting them in molds for bridal or baby showers, and they can be done in a matter of minutes!

    Ingredients:

    1. 113 grams (4 oz) cream cheese
    2. One tablespoon softened salted butter,
    3. plus four cups (500 g) of powdered sugar,
    4. plus enough for imprinting mints and as needed;
    5. ½ teaspoon peppermint extract
    6. and ⅛ teaspoon vanilla extract
    7. Optional food coloring

    Guidelines

    • Cream cheese and butter should be put in the bowl of a stand mixer (or large bowl and beat with an electric mixer) until well combined and creamy.
    • 113 g or 4 oz of cream cheeseOne-quarter cup salted butter
    • Add 2 cups (250g) sugar gradually while running a low-speed mixer, stirring until well combined.
    • 500 grams, or 4 cups, powdered sugar
    • Mix in the vanilla extract and peppermint.
    • Half a teaspoon each of peppermint and vanilla essence
    • Add the remaining sugar gradually while running a low-speed mixer. Stir until all of the sugar is incorporated, pausing occasionally to scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl. The dough should be extremely stiff and not sticky; if it is, add more powdered sugar until the consistency resembles play dough.
    • If you’re using food coloring, you can beat the color into the dough using an electric mixer if you’re simply using one color. If you want to use many colors, divide the dough into as many bowls as you want to use, then add color to each one separately, stirring thoroughly to fully mix the color.

    condiment coloring

    • Smoothly roll the dough between your palms into portions the size of a teaspoon. Transfer to a baking sheet lined with wax paper. Using a fork dipped in powdered sugar, gently yet firmly press down on each mint.
    • After letting the mints dry for a few hours at room temperature (they should be completely dry and hard to the touch when squeezed), move them to an airtight container and store in Keep chilled until you’re ready to serve. Mints should be stored in single layers with a covering of wax paper between each to reduce sticking.

    Notes:

    • Make sure you use brick-style cream cheese (as pictured in the post photo), not the tubular spreadable variety.

  • Amish baked custard

    Amish baked custard

    Amish Baked Custard

    Of all the traditional desserts, custards are among the tastiest. Thanks to a lot of eggs in the mixture, they are simple to eat and have a richness that no pudding can match. It should come as no surprise that this kind of delicacy is also known as an Amish custard. It is frequently referred to as an egg custard. You will already be aware of the Amish’s reputation for delicious pastries and made-from-scratch snacks if you have ever purchased some during your travels. However, this dish used to be quite well-liked across the nation, especially in farming areas where fresh eggs were widely available.

    This is a simple recipe that yields perfect custard every time.

    You’ll need to mix some hot water with a can of sweetened condensed milk to start this preparation. Next, add a small amount of the heated milk mixture to the beaten eggs to temper them. After a few repetitions, you can fully combine both bowls.

    Vanilla extract should be added just after the eggs have softened. Then, when it’s time for dessert, portion the mixture into individual portions and bake them in ramekins or a 2-quart casserole.

    Ingredients

    1. One can (14 oz) of condensed milk with sugar
    2. Four cups of steaming water
    3. Six eggs
    4. two tsp of essence from vanilla
    5. 1/4 tsp salt with nutmeg as a garnish

    Procedure

    • Turn the oven on to 325°F. In a big glass, mix condensed milk and hot water.
    • In a another bowl, beat eggs until they are frothy and light in color
    • Gently temper the eggs by adding a little amount of the heated milk mixture, then fully combine.
    • Add salt and vanilla and stir. Transfer into ramekins and set over a high-sided baking pan.
    • Alternatively, use a 2-quart baking dish.
    • Place the ramekins in a water bath to bake after adding half an inch of hot water to a separate pan. When baking custard in a larger pan that won’t fit in another pan, you can place a pan of water on a different oven shelf. When a knife inserted in the center comes out clean, bake for one hour. Bake in a bigger baking dish for one hour and forty minutes.
    • Let the custard cool.
    • For sixty minutes. Add dash of nutmeg, then serve warm or cold from the refrigerator.

    No-Bake Fluffy And Moist Milk Cupcake

    I love to bake, but since I recently relocated, I’ve been unable to do so because I still don’t own an oven. I was searching for stovetop cupcake recipes that I could prepare at home. I’m glad I came upon Gabby’s life’s no-bake, fluffy, and moist milk cupcake recipe on YouTube.

    I wasn’t expecting it to be this amazing, but it was really simple and quick to prepare. My friends and family like it as well, after I shared it with them. They insisted that I create more over the weekend. The taste is creamy with a faint hint of vanilla extract, and the texture is flawless. Serve this with juice, tea, or coffee and don’t forget to give it a taste.

  • Best Southern Fried Chicken

    Best Southern Fried Chicken

    Best Southern Fried Chicken

    This traditional dish is the simplest version of homemade Southern fried chicken. It’s juicy and crispy and will become a family favorite. You also don’t have to prepare ahead of time because a lengthy marinate in buttermilk is not necessary.

    Ingredients

    1. half a cup of milk
    2. Two big eggs
    3. two and a half cups all-purpose flour
    4. Two tsp fine salt, or more if necessary
    5. Two tsp freshly ground pepper (black pepper)
    6. Four pounds of skin-on, bone-in chicken pieces
    7. For frying, use vegetable oil

    Procedure

    • Assemble the components. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Fahrenheit and place a rack in the center. Arrange a rack inside a sizable baking sheet with a rim and reserve.
    • Place 2 big eggs and 1 1/2 cups milk in a medium-sized bowl. Mix by whisking.
    • Put 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons fine salt, and 2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper in a big, sturdy, resealable food storage bag. To mix, seal and shake.
    • Four pounds of skin-on, bone-in chicken pieces should be dipped in the milk-egg mixture, with any excess falling into the bowl. Once you have three or four pieces, set the previously dipped pieces aside on a platter.
    • Incorporate the coated chicken pieces into the seasoned flour bag.
    • To completely coat the chicken pieces, seal the bag and give it a good shake.
    • Transfer to a platter and continue with the leftover chicken chunks.
    • In a deep, heavy-duty skillet, heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil to 350 degrees Fahrenheit
    • Fry the chicken a few pieces at a time until golden brown and cooked through, turning occasionally for even color, about 10 minutes per side. Be careful not to put too many chicken pieces in at once, even if they can comfortably fit, since this will dramatically drop the temperature of the oil, affecting the crispness of the chicken. Note that depending on their size, the chicken breasts will take a little less time than dark meat pieces
    • With a slotted spoon, move the chicken pieces onto the prepared paper towel-lined platter to drain as they become done. Sprinkle generously with salt while the pieces are still hot.
    • Fry a few pieces of chicken at a time for about 10 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through, rotating them regularly to ensure even coloration. Even if they fit easily, take care not to add too many pieces of chicken at once since this will cause the oil’s temperature to drop significantly and reduce the chicken’s crispness. Keep in mind that chicken breasts will need somewhat less time than portions of dark meat, depending on their size.
    • When the chicken pieces are done, transfer them with a slotted spoon to a dish lined with paper towels to drain. If the pieces are still hot, then liberally sprinkle with salt.
    • Using a rack, move the drained chicken to the baking sheet that has been prepared. While the remaining chicken is frying, keep warm in the oven. Present and savor

    BAKED CHICKEN CACCIATORE

    An abandoned can of stewed tomatoes in the pantry served as the inspiration for this baked chicken cacciatore. This is very easy to prepare and tastes amazing! This is delicious served over rice or pasta, but my favorite combination is with mashed potatoes. Feel free to “spice it up” in any way you’d like, but we enjoy it exactly this way.

    Set aside fifteen minutes.

    Chicken Francese

    Pan-frie chicken breast with a light batter served with a classy white wine and lemon sauce. It tastes like chicken piccata with a hint of lemon flavor and a thicker, more abundant sauce instead of capers. It has an amazing crust that melts into the sauce! Delicious restaurant-style cuisine that’s easy to prepare at home.

    Has no winey flavor because the alcohol has been boiled away, leaving behind a unique flavor that wine alone can impart to sauces.

    CHICKEN & COATING:

    1. 2 large, skinless, boneless chicken breasts, weighing 250–300g / 8–10 oz each
    2. 1/4 cup all-purpose or plain flour;
    3. 1 tsp kosher or cooking salt;
    4. 1 tsp black pepper;
    5. 2 big eggs;
    6. 1 tbsp milk (any fat percentage);

    COOKING & SAUCE:

    1. 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil;
    2. 1 lemon, thinly sliced (0.3 cm / 1/8 inch);
    3. 50g / 3 tablespoons unsalted butter;
    4. 2 tablespoons All-purpose or plain flour
    5. cups low-sodium chicken broth or stock
    6. 1/3 cup dry white wine (Note 1)
    7. 1/2 tsp kosher salt (no pepper!)
    8. tbsp finely chopped parsley, garnish (optional

    Guidelines

    • To make four thin steaks in total, cut each breast in half horizontally. Beat the eggs with the milk in small bowl. Put aside.

    Coating with flour:

    •  Using my fingertips, combine flour, salt, and pepper on dish.
    • After dusting the chicken with flour and shaking off any excess, place it on plate.
    • In large nonstick pan, heat the oil over medium-high heat.
    • After dipping the chicken in the egg and letting any excess drop off, place it on the pan. Cook till golden, 3 minutes. Turn, reduce heat to medium, and continue cooking until the chicken is browned (internal temperature 68°C/155°F), about 4 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
    • Slices of lemon should be added to the pan. Cook the lemons for one minute, or until they get tender and brown. Then, flip them over and cook for another thirty seconds on the other side. Transfer to a plate. (Note 2) Use paper towels to thoroughly clean the pan.

    White wine sauce:

    • Melt the butter in the pan over medium heat. Add flour and use a wooden spoon to mix for one minute. Slowly pour in half of the stock while stirring.
    • Following the flour’s dissolution in the liquid, mix in the remaining stock, wine, and salt after that. For a tip on lumps, 

    Sauce thickening:

    • Increase the heat a little and simmer the sauce for three to four minutes, or until it thickens and becomes syrupy in consistency.
    • Add some sauce! Spoon the sauce over the chicken when you’ve returned it to the pan along with the lemon slices. Serve the chicken with the sauce (use it all!) after sprinkling it with parsley.
