Homemade Cinnamon Toast Crunch

Homemade Cinnamon Toast Crunch

By: AikoVenus from Shin's Vegan Lovin'

3/4 cup of White Whole Wheat
1/4 or 1/2 cup of Raw Sugar
1/8 tsp Turmeric
1/4 tsp Sea Salt
1 tbl Cinnamon
1/4 tsp Nutmeg
2 tbl Chia Seeds with cold water
3 squeezes Agave Nectar
1 tsp of Canola Oil
Enough (gluten-free) Oat Milk to mix

Mix all of the ingredients together with a spoon, adding the wet ingredients last, then knead about 40 times, let the dough rest for about ten minutes and then roll the dough out as thinly as you like. The more thickness it has, the less crispness and the less time it will last on the shelves. Cut your squares, slather with oat milk and sprinkle on cinnamon and sugar. Bake at 350 degrees for about 25 minutes or until fully browned and crisped then fix your bowl of cereal and enjoy.

Homemade Jell-o Syrup

My mom use to make this for us as kids.  We loved it.
Jell-o Pancake Syrup
(12 servings)   
  • 1 small box Jell-o or other flavored gelatin
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons cornstarch
I should say first that this is a real working recipe. It might seem like a child's experiment, but I'm 52 years old and have used this for many years.

The directions are very simple:
  • Mix the gelatin, sugar, cornstarch and water together in a small saucepan and bring to a rolling boil.

  • Pour into pitcher and let cool until syrup thickens slightly.
Serve over pancakes or waffles while still warm.

You might consider cutting the ingredients in half if you're only serving a small group. This syrup doesn't store well -- it becomes to thick over time.

    ONION FLAT BREAD

    Picture of Grilled Green Onion Flatbread Recipe



    Read more about it at www.cooks.com/rec/view/0,174,132182-246194,00.html
    Content Copyright © 2012 Cooks.com - All rights reserved.
    1 cup warm water
    1 teaspoon salt
    1 tablespoon sugar
    1 tablespoon olive oil
    freshly cracked black (or mixed) pepper
    1/2 ounce dried yeast dissolved in 1 T. warm water
    12 ounces flour
    1 egg, beaten lightly
    coarse sea salt or kosher salt
    chopped onion, for sprinkling

    This flat bread bakes up wonderfully on a pizza stone set on the grill. Be sure that the stone is well heated before placing the onion bread on to bake. A pizza peel or the back of a pizza pan sprinkled with corn meal (so that it slides off easily onto the stone) can be used as a surface for preparing the flat bread while the grill or oven heats up.Stir salt, sugar and olive oil into warm water. Dissolve yeast in one tablespoon of warm water and add to mixture. Add flour gradually, mixing and kneading until smooth and elastic. Cover, and allow to rise overnight in a warm place, free from draft.
    The next day, knead the dough and divide into balls about the size of a tennis ball. Roll each one out to about 1/2" thickness.
    Brush with egg yolk diluted in two tablespoons water and sprinkle with coarse salt and chopped onion, and finally, coarsely cracked pepper. (For an extra kick, hot pepper flakes can also be sprinkled on lightly). Pierce the dough several times with a fork so that it will remain flat.
    Bake on a lightly floured baking sheet in a 400°F oven for about 20 minutes until onions are brown and crust is crisp and golden.
    Variation: Top pizza with a combination of black oil cured olives, sliced onions and anchovies. Drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese, if desired (cheese is entirely optional)!

    7-Up Biscuits



    7-Up Biscuits

    Ingredients:

    2 cups Bisquick
    1/2 cup sour cream
    1/2 cup 7-up (or other similar soda beverage. I used ginger ale)
    1/4 cup melted butter

    Directions:

    1. Preheat oven to 450F. Prepare a 9 x 9 baking pan. If you want taller and bigger biscuits, use a 9 x 5 loaf pan instead or double the recipe ingredients.
    2. Mix Bisquick, sour cream and 7-Up in a large bowl. Melt butter and pour into the baking pan. Press dough into pan, spreading evenly across. For a 9 x 9 pan, it will barely spread across.
    3. Bake for approximately 15 minutes until golden brown. If you use a smaller pan, it will take longer, approximately 20-25 minutes.

    Puffy Apple Pancake

    puffy apple pancakes
    Ingredients

    • 2 tablespoon(s) sugar
    • 1/3 cup(s) flour

    • 1 1/2 teaspoon(s) baking powder
    • 1 egg
    • 1/2 teaspoon(s) vanilla

    • 2 teaspoon(s) butter
    • Powdered sugar

    Directions
    1. Whisk together the cinnamon, sugar, flour, salt, baking powder, egg, vanilla, and milk until combined, but don't worry about lumps. (This is one of those recipes with baking powder, so you need to measure carefully.)
    2. Melt the butter in the skillet on medium heat. Add the apples, and then pour the batter over them. Cover the skillet with the lid and cook for 10 to 12 minutes.
    3. Turn off the stove, take the skillet off the burner, and remove the lid.
    4. Use the spatula to loosen the cake from the sides of the skillet. Next, put the serving plate upside-down over the skillet, and flip the pancake onto the plate by turning the whole thing over. (Use potholders to protect your hands).
    5. Sift powdered sugar over the top (which used to be the bottom). Savor your masterpiece

    New Breakfast Sandwich Uses Waffles as Bread

    July 11, 2012 at 8:04AM by Zoe Bain | 0 Comment
    Breakfast Waffle SandwichCan't decide between a sweet or savory breakfast? Jack in the Box has got that dilemma covered with its new Breakfast Waffle Sandwich.
    According to Burger Business, the new sandwich is a limited-time offering and features an egg, American cheese, and sausage sandwiched between two maple-flavored waffles. Sound familiar? That's because it's very similar to McDonald's McGriddles sandwich, which also forgoes the bread, replacing it with pancakes.
    This isn't the first, or even second, time a fast-food chain has replaced the bread in a sandwich. McDonald's may have been one of the originals with McGriddles, but KFC Philippines recently debuted a fried chicken sandwich with a slice of cheese melted on top of the bun — the "Cheese Top" sandwich. KFC also dreams up inside-out sandwiches stateside. The company's "Double Down" sandwich skips the bread altogether and features bacon, cheese, and sauce between two breaded chicken filets.
    In-N-Out Burger, the West coast burger chain, has long been known for a hamburger without buns. Called a protein-style burger, the buns are scrapped and the patties are wrapped in lettuce instead. The protein-style burger is featured on In-N-Out's not so secret, secret menu.

    This is a delicious lower fat bar if using reduced-fat peanut butter, these are perfect for kid's lunch boxes, feel free to add in some chopped nuts or sunflower seeds or coconut in place of the raisins,

    Ingredients:

    Yield: 16 bars
    Units: US | Metric

    • 1 1/2 cups quick-cooking oats
    • 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
    • 1/2 cup dark corn syrup or 1/2 cup light corn syrup or 1/2 cup honey

    • 1/3 cup mini chocolate chip (to prevent melting refrigerate or freeze the chocolate chips before mixing in)

    Directions:

    1. lightly grease 11 x 7-inch, can use a 13 x 9-inch baking dish but you will have a thinner bar.
    2. In a large bowl combine Rice Krispies cereal, oats and raisins.
    3. In a saucepan stir the corn syrup or honey and brown sugar until just at a boil.
    4. Immediately remove from heat and stir in the peanut butter and vanilla until well combined.

    9. Chill until firm.





    JAM ROLY-POLY

    This is an old favourite from my childhood. My grandma made it using suet, I use butter instead. It's very similar to a scone dough or a rough pastry dough.
    • 2 cups self raising flour OR plain/all purpose flour with two teaspoons of baking powder sifted in
    • 4 tablespoons room temperature butter
    • Pinch salt
    • 2 tablespoons sugar
    • Enough milk to make a firm dough

    Add all the dry ingredients to a mixing bowl and using your finger tips, rub the butter into the flour. When it's combined, add the milk and mix in. When it's mixed, cover the dough with plastic wrap and place it in the fridge to firm up. About 30 minutes should do it.


    Onto a lightly floured board or bench, roll out the dough into a rectangle. Cut off any bits that poke out too far so you have a neat shape. Cover the dough with raspberry jam (or any jam of your liking) and carefully roll the dough into a sausage shape. You might need the help of a pallet knife or egg lifter. Brush with egg wash and place into an oven proof baking dish. You can curl it around to fit the dish. You need a dish with sides because this will spread out if cooked on a flat tray.

    Cook at 180C/350F for about 30 minutes or until golden and bubbly. Serve with warm custard.

    What little tricks and add ons do you turn to when you hear "where's the meat?!!"?
