corn muffins

I made this in a rush for the bake sale, baked under pressure in not a fun thing to do, but the result came out good, especially for the first timer, what a relieve! Mission completed! 

Like the taste of the kernels corn in it, next time I’ll try have some cheese in it.

Ingredients

1/2 cup butter, softened

2/3 cup brown sugar

2 eggs

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 1/2 cups wheat flour

3/4 cup cornmeal

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1 1/2 cup milk

3/4 cup frozen corn kernels, thawed

Directions

Make 12 muffin.

In a large bowl, mix well all the dry ingredients and then add in the rest ingredient one by one; blend thoroughly. Spoon batter into prepared muffin cups.

Bake in preheated oven at 350°F for 20 to 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into center of a muffin comes out clean.

steamed cake

To steam the cake instead of baking, it tastes really good, soft and moist and the bacon is a plus. Anyway, not even get chance to take any picture and it’s all gone in no time.

Strongly recommend that you make your own frizzled green onion and leek and seaweed with sesame seeds yourself, it's not that hard and you house will have that aroma last for days.

Green onion and leek are from the backyard.

Ingredients: 

5 egg (separate egg yolk from egg white)

2 T sugar 

1 1/4 C wheat flour

2 T coconut oil

6 oz. of bacon

4 T frizzled green onion and leek (stir fry with bacon)

3 T Crispy Seaweed with Toasted Sesame Seeds (deep fry seaweed then mix with toasted sesame)

How to:

Have all the ingredients measured and ready for use.

In a clean stainless steel bowel, whip the egg white with sugar until foamy.

Add in egg yolks continue beating until blend well around 30 seconds.

Slowing fold the wheat flour in and then add mix in coconut oil gently.

Pour half the batter into the steamer pot, spread the bacon mix evenly and then pour in the rest of the batter, sprinkle with seaweed sesame.

Steam for 20 minutes or until a skewer inserted comes out clean.

bake apple

Oh! No! It looks easy and yummy, one more recipe that I have to try hard to find time to try it myself.

Baked Bloomin’ Apples

http://tiphero.com/baked-bloomin-apples/

Ingredients:

– 2 Apples (I love Honeycrisp’s)
– 4 Caramels
– 1 TSP Cinamon
– 3 TBS Brown Sugar
– 2 TBS Butter
– 1 TBS Flour

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

2. Cut off the top 1/4 of an apple

3. With a melon baller or spoon scoop out the center/seeds but DO NOT grow through the whole apple like you would with an apple corer.

4. With a small paring knife make two deep circular cuts around the center apple. Next flip the apple over and cut slits through the side to the center, and repeat these cuts around the entire apple.

5. Put apples in a baking safe dish or pan. Place 2 caramels in the cavity of each apple.

6. Heat butter and brown sugar in the microwave for 30 second, stir and pop back in microwave for an extra 15 seconds. Remove from microwave and add in flour and cinnamon.

7. Bake in oven at 375 degrees for 25-30 minutes. If apples still feel hard try baking for additional 5-15 mins.

8. Remove apples from oven and place on plate or bowl. I love to pair this with Vanilla ice cream.

bake sweet potato

I found a new way to bake sweet potato. I’ve trying different ways to cook it, steam, and sweet soup and bake it as the whole sweet potato also thin slice, but didn’t get the approval from the kids.

That’s talking about the successful one. Cut the sweet potato like the French fries, strips, with the nutritious skin on then flavor them with salt, pepper and olive oil. Make sure try to cut into the shapes and flavor them evenly possible.

Bake them at either 350°F or 375°F, until its golden brown and you can even tell when they are done by the nice sweet aroma from the cooked sweet potato.
