The aroma of apples and cinnamon wafting through a home is unmistakably comforting. Steeped in tradition and carrying with it the legacy of the apple harvest festivals in Europe, the Cinnamon Apple Cake has been a staple in many households. Over the generations, families have handed down their versions of this delightful dessert, with each bite transporting you back to simpler times.
Serving Suggestions:
While the cake is a masterpiece on its own, if you wish to elevate it:
Creamy Delight: Serve it with a dollop of whipped cream, its airy texture complementing the dense moistness of the cake.
Cold Contrast: A scoop of vanilla ice cream not only cools the palate but introduces a creamy element that goes wonderfully with the warm spices.
Gourmet Touch: A light dusting of powdered sugar or a caramel drizzle will certainly impress your guests.
Beverage Pairing: An afternoon cup of tea or coffee acts as a perfect beverage counterpart to this treat.
Recipe Breakdown
1 lb ground beef (preferably 80/20 for juiciness)
2 large onions, thinly sliced
Salt and pepper to taste
4 hamburger buns, toasted
Optional toppings: cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickles, mustard, ketchup
Onion Preparation: Begin by thinly slicing the onions. The thinner they are, the crispier they’ll become.
Meat Patties: Divide the ground beef into four equal portions and shape them into loose, thin patties. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
Onion Embedding: Press a good handful of the sliced onions into one side of each patty, ensuring they adhere well.
Cooking: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the patties onion-side-down into the skillet. This will help the onions to caramelize and infuse the beef with their flavor. Cook for about 5 minutes, then flip and cook for another 4-5 minutes, or until the beef is cooked to your liking.
Serving: Place each patty on a toasted bun and garnish with your favorite toppings.
It’s a good thing that I live on the coast and have access to an abundance of fresh seafood because I absolutely looooove it! Today I’m sharing an easy recipe for Catfish Shrimp Alfredo Casserole.

Easy Candied Walnuts that takes 5 minutes and has 5 ingredients. They’re chewy, crunchy, salty, not too sweet and taste heavenly!!!
5 minute caramel walnuts are chewy, crisp, salty and not-too-sweet !!! Highly addictive candied walnuts are perfect for snacking, holiday gift giving or even topped on salads.
I love this easy method of making the candied nuts where everything goes into the pan at once. Other methods I’ve tried left me with globs of candy on the nuts rather than a more even coating.
It also roasts the nuts at the same time so you don’t have to pre-toast them, then add them back to the pan to be coated, blah, blah. Who needs extra steps?
It seriously takes about 5 minutes on the stove and 5 minutes to cool. The finished product is delicious! My husband was sampling them right out of the pan. P.S. This recipe can easily be doubled.
