                            The New Bundt Pan Cookbook

                    Cider Mill Press Book Publishers, 2017

                                             Pages 90-91

 

Featured Ingredient:  BROWN SUGAR

 

1/2 cup unsalted butter, additional for coating the Bundt pan

1 cup brown sugar

2 eggs, room temperature

1/2 cup molasses

1 & 1/2 cups flour

1 Tsp baking soda

1/2 Tsp salt

2 Tsps ground ginger

1 Tsp cinnamon

1/4 Tsp ground cloves

 

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Liberally coat the Bundt pan with butter and lightly flour, taping out the excess to make a thin, even coat.

 

Cream together the butter and sugar until the mixture is fully combined.  Then add the eggs, one at a time and beat until thoroughly incorporated.  Add the molasses and continue beating until well combined.

 

In a separate medium mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and cloves.  Add flour mixture to butter - sugar mixture and mix briefly just until ingredients have been incorporated.

 

Transfer the mixture to the prepared Bundt pan and spread batter evenly throughout.  Bake at 350 degrees for 40 to 45 minutes until an inserted toothpick comes out mostly clean.

 

Let the cake rest for 30 minutes, then turn out of the pan and allow to cool completely on a wire rack.

Cauliflower Crust Grilled Cheese

 

Not as easy as grabbing a few slices of bread but a great alternative  to get more veggies in your diet.

CB5BFD8D-F7CB-41B3-879A-CA57B2B8FA3B.jpeg

Ingredients

Makes 2 grilled cheese sandwiches

 

Cauliflower crust “bread” slices

 

1 small head cauliflower, cut into small florets (should yield 3 cups of cauliflower rice) I just buy fresh pre-riced bag 

1 free-range organic egg, lightly beaten

½ cup / 1.7 oz / 50 gr shredded mozzarella cheese

½ teaspoon fine grain sea salt

¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

 

Grilled cheese

 

1 tablespoon butter, room temperature

⅓ cup / 3 oz / 85 gr sharp cheddar cheese, grated/shredded, room temperature

 

Directions

Cauliflower crust “bread” slices

 

Preheat oven to 450°F (220°C) and place a rack in the middle.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and liberally grease it with olive oil. Set aside.

In a food processor rice the cauliflower florets (it should be evenly chopped but not completely pulverized).

Transfer cauliflower rice (about 3 cups) to a microwave-safe dish and microwave on high for 8 minutes, until cooked.

Place the cauliflower rice in a tea towel and twist it to squeeze as much moisture as you can (I usually squeeze out over a cup of liquid). This is very important. The cauliflower rice needs to be dry, otherwise you’ll end up with mushy dough, impossible to use as slices of bread.

Transfer the cauliflower rice to a mixing bowl, add egg, mozzarella, salt and pepper and mix well.

Spread cauliflower mixture onto the lined baking sheet and shape into 4 square.

Place in the oven and bake for about 16 minutes until golden.

Remove and let cool 10 minutes before peeling them off the parchment paper (be careful not to break them!)

 

Assemble cauliflower crust grilled cheese

 

Heat a pan over medium heat.

Butter one side of each slice of cauliflower crust bread (preferably the top part).

Place one slice of bread in the pan, buttered side down, sprinkle on the cheese and top with the remaining slice of cauliflower crust bread, buttered side up.

Turn the heat down a notch and cook until golden brown, about 2 to 4 minutes.

Gently flip and cook until golden brown on the other side, about 2 to 4 minutes.

This recipe was in my inbox yesterday from TOH and I will be making a smaller quantity of it this weekend.  I love good coleslaw so I know I'll like this version-- sort of a slaw/Waldorf salad in one dish.  

 

Farmhouse Apple Coleslaw


Prep: 20 min. + chilling.    12 servings

 

Ingredients
4 cups shredded cabbage*
1 large APPLE, chopped

3/4 cup raisins
1/2 cup chopped celery
1/4 cup chopped onion **
1/4 cup mayonnaise***
2 TBS lemon juice

1 TBS sugar
1 TBS olive oil

1/2 tsp salt

1/8 tsp pepper
*VaBreeze will substitute packaged coleslaw mix with carrots

**VB will substitute sliced green onions

***VB will substitute bacon-flavored mayo 

VB's add-ons: jicama sticks, pineapple pieces, and walnuts

 

Directions
In a serving bowl, combine the cabbage, apple, raisins, celery and onion. 

In a small bowl, combine the remaining ingredients. Pour over cabbage mixture and toss to coat. 

 

Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Test Kitchen noted: The apple and raisins add a natural sweetness, so there's only a small amount of added sugar.
