How To Make Big Apple Fritters

I was trying to replicate the Apple Fritters that the convenience store chain, QuikTrip, used to have. The ones they have now are just not the same. This recipe came darn close with the couple of modifications I made. As suggested, I doubled the nutmeg and added 1 tea. Cinnamon. I also increased the sugar to 1/3 cup. As suggested by another reviewer, I diced the apples and microwaved them for 4 minutes, then put them, liquid and all, into the batter and dropped the batter in 1/4 cupfuls into hot oil. Instead of dusting with sugar when done, I made a glaze of 1 cup confectioner’s sugar, 1 Tbsp. light corn syrup and 2 Tbsp. water, and drizzled that over the fritters. It dries to a sweet, slightly hard and crunchy glaze on the fritter. My husband says these are closer to the old QT fritters than what they have in the store now, but could be fried just a bit thinner and crispier. Next time I’ll add one more apple and see if that doesn’t thin the cakey-ness down just a hair. Great recipe!

Ingredients:

3 cups all-purpose flour

1½ cups sugar

3 teaspoons baking powder

½ teaspoon salt

¾ teaspoon Apple Pie Spice

2 large eggs

1 cup milk

1 teaspoon vanilla

2 Tablespoons butter, softened

1½ cups peeled, chopped apples

Oil for frying

Confectioners sugar

How To Make CHRISTMAS SUGAR COOKIES

Quick and easy Christmas Sugar Cookies are so good either plain or decorated with royal icing!
These Christmas Sugar Cookies are soft and buttery, keep their shape while baking AND everyone loves them. The best part? No big mixer needed!

If you’re looking for a great sugar cookie recipe, whether you’re decorating or not, then this is the recipe for you!

What are sugar cookies made out of?
Simple ingredients you’ll find in your kitchen! You’ll be relieved to know there are no weird ingredients in this recipe. You’re just 5 ingredients away from the best sugar cookies of your life!

Butter ✓
Sugar ✓
Pure vanilla extract ✓
Egg ✓
Flour ✓

How do you get sugar cookies to keep their shape?
What sets this recipe apart from the rest is no baking powder or baking soda. During testing, we found the addition of either of those or a combination of the two ingredients made for puffy sugar cookies that lost their shape while baking from puffing up too much. We also found that we preferred the flavour of these cookies without those two ingredients. They are absolutely not needed in this sugar cookie recipe.

Also, we chill the dough before rolling so that after you’ve cut them out, they’re easier to lift off of your bench and arrange onto your baking sheet, maintaining their shape while baking.

Ingredients:

For the Cookies:

  • ½ C butter
  • ½ C shortening
  • ½ C sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 3 tsp vanilla
  • 3 Tbsp milk
  • 3 C flour
  • ½ tsp baking powder

How To Make Snickerdoodle Muffins Recipe

My kids love these muffins.
-Too dense and very bland. If I make these again, I will add cinnamon sugar and more milk to the batter.
– made these last night, i did add a bit extra cinnamon and i added pecans as well. my kids loved them!! i also put the oats through my food processor to make then more like flour.. they turned out awesome!!!
-Thanks for the recipe, Robyn. I didn’t have any problems following it.

I really like these muffins. They’re great plain, with a little streusel-like layer of cinnamon/sugar and chopped toasted pecans in the center and a baked topping of the same mixture. An icing glaze drizzled on while they’re still warm is nice too.

I use almond milk or coconut milk instead of dairy milk and it works just fine. My oatmeal is old-fashioned organic and it tends to be a bit thick, so I gave it a few pulses in the food processor.

This recipe works well with variations. A now-closed muffin shop in my town used to make oatmeal-peach muffins that were delicious and addictive. The second time I made these I added about a cup of chopped frozen peaches (thawed before chopping of course). They were wonderful and made the muffins more moist. I think the recipe would also be good with apples, blackberries, raspberries, bananas or mangoes but I haven’t tried them yet.

Self-rising flour isn’t readily available in all parts of the country and probably not at all in foreign countries, so it’s not a universal ingredient. That might be why there are so many questions about it. I don’t think I’ve ever seen it in the stores where I live because of altitude.

Ingredients:

For The Muffin:
½ cup softened unsalted butter
⅔ cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1½ teaspoons vanilla extract
½ cup milk
¼ cup sour cream
1⅔ cups all-purpose flour
1½ teaspoons baking powder
¼ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon salt
For Topping:
3 tablespoons melted butter
⅓ cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

This Recipe Does Not Take Much Time, Only 5 Ingredients

If you need a quick and easy dessert, look no further than Grilled Peach Ravioli. Using refrigerated croissants as a base, these dumplings come together in no time.
The dough is rolled around portions of canned peaches and drizzled with peach syrup, butter, and cinnamon sugar before baking to perfection.
When I was a kid, my grandmother would make these peach ravioli for me every summer.
She had a peach tree in her garden, and when the fruit had ripened, we would spend hours together in the kitchen, peeling and slicing peaches and rolling them in croissant dough.
The warm, cinnamon scent that filled her home was simply wonderful. To this day, the scent of peaches and cinnamon takes me back to the lazy summer afternoons I spent with my grandmother. That’s why this recipe is special to me – it’s not just dessert, it’s a connection to the past.
While these peach muffins are delicious on their own, adding a creamy filling takes them to the next level. Whether you prefer vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or even sour cream, cold cream perfectly balances the warm, sticky sweetness of dumplings.

Trust me, once you take a bite of these hot and crunchy dumplings filled with peaches with a scoop of cold melty ice cream on top, you’ll know why this dessert has been a family favorite for generations.
