French Toast Roll-Ups



FRENCH TOAST ROLL-UP'S
What a great way to change the way your morning starts!

Source: inspired from Cinnamon Spice and Everything Nice
taken from "the girl who ate everything" website!

Ingredients

8 slices white sandwich bread
softened cream cheese, diced strawberries, or Nutella
2 eggs
3 tablespoons milk
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1 heaping teaspoon ground cinnamon
butter, for greasing the pan

Instructions

Cut the crust from each slice of bread and flatten it out with a rolling pin.
Place about 1-2 teaspoons of your chosen filling 1 inch from one end of the bread in a strip. Roll the bread up tightly and repeat with the remaining pieces of bread. I really like cream cheese with diced strawberries as one combination and Nutella with diced strawberries as another combination.
In a shallow bowl whisk the eggs and milk until well combined.
In a separate shallow bowl mix the sugar with the cinnamon.
Heat a skillet set over medium heat and melt a tablespoon of butter.
Dip each bread roll in the egg mixture coating well and then place them in the pan seam side down. Cook in batches until golden brown, turning them to cook and brown on all sides. Add butter to the pan as needed.
Add cooked rolls immediately from the pan to the cinnamon sugar and roll until completely covered in sugar. You can serve with syrup for dipping but I think they're perfectly good all by themselves.

Mini Apple Pies



Mmmm!!! this one's a keeper !!Mini Apple Pies- can be done in your mini pie pans too.

Start by cutting up eight cups of apples into small 1/2 in bits.
Mix the apples with:
12 tablespoons of flour
1 1/2 cup of sugar
4 heaping teaspoons of cinnamon
1/4-1/2 teaspoon of nutmeg (depending on how much you like nutmeg...you could also leave it out)

You will also need:
4 tablespoons of chilled butter cut into 24 equal portions.
two boxes of Pillsbury pie crusts (four chilled NOT frozen crusts)

Unroll your first pie crust and cut several circles out. Continue this until you have enough crusts. I found that a wide mouth mason jar ring worked perfectly. Line each cup of your muffin tin with a tiny pie crust. gently fill the crusts with your apple mixture. You should be able to fill until slightly mounded. and put a dab of butter on each pie. Cover as desired with left over dough. Brush with melted butter and bake at 400 for 18 to 22 minutes. Recipe makes 24 mini pies.

Country Apple Dumplings
2 Lg. Granny Smith Apples~ peeled, sliced
2 (10oz.) Cans Crescent Roll's
1 Stick Butter~ melted
1 1/2 C. Sugar
1 tsp. Cinnamon
1 (12oz.) Can Mountain Dew Soda
Preheat oven to 350

Mix together the sugar, melted butter and cinnamon. this will make a thick sugar "paste". Separate the crescent rolls, spread the sugar onto each triangle, along with 2-3 slices Apple. Roll each apple up starting with the smallest end. Pinch end's to seal. After all the crescent's have been filled and rolled, place them in a baking dish seam side down. Sprinkle the remaining sugar over top on the rolls. Next you will pour the can of soda over the top. Place into the oven to bake for 38-45 minutes. I recommend serving them right out of the oven, along side a big scoop of Vanilla Ice Cream.

Mountain Dew Apple Dumplings




Mountain Dew Apple Dumplings

2 cans crescent rolls. I used Pillsbury 8 count cans in original flava. 8)
2 apples. (green).
2 sticks butter. I don't skimp, the recipe says you can use margarine, but what's the point anyway?
2 cups sugar.
2 tsp. cinnamon.
1 can Mountain Dew.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Core and slice apples (I removed the skins as well). Wrap each in a crescent triangle. I basically just tried my best to get every inch of the apple covered by the dough. Line up in a 9x13 inch pan. Melt butter, cinnamon, and sugar together. I just nuked the butter and then stirred in the sugar and cinnamon until it had a pretty smooth, pourable consistency. Pour the Dew around the perimeter of the pan. Bake 45 minutes. Eat warm with a scoop, or 3, of vanilla ice cream.

Cinnamon Roll Pancakes



Cinnamon Roll Pancakes

Ingredients:

for the Pancakes:
4 cups all-purpose flour
8 tsps baking powder
2 tsp. salt
4 cups milk
4 tbsps vegetable oil
4 large eggs, lightly beaten

for the Cinnamon Filling
1 cup butter, melted
1 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
2 tbsp ground cinnamon

for the Cream Cheese Glaze
1/2 cup butter
4 oz. cream cheese
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1 tsp. vanilla

Directions:

To make the Cinnamon Filling:
Mix the three ingredients together. Place in a disposable piping bag and snip the end off or put in a Ziploc bag and snip the corner off.


To make the Pancakes:
Mix the dry ingredients in one bowl and the wet ingredients in another bowl. Stir them together until everything is moistened leaving a few lumps.

Heat your griddle to exactly 325 degrees. You don't want these too cook too quickly, and you won't want your cinnamon to burn.

Make desired size pancake on greased griddle and then using the piping bag and starting at the center of the pancake, create a cinnamon swirl. Wait until the pancake has lots of bubble before you try to turn it. You will find that when you turn it the cinnamon swirl will melt. The cinnamon will melt out and create the craters which the cream cheese glaze will fill.

To make the Cream Cheese Glaze:
In a microwave safe bowl melt the butter and cream cheese and then stir together. Whisk in the powdered sugar and vanilla. Add a little milk if needed to make
it a glaze consistency.

Place pancake on plate, then cover with cream cheese glaze.
