Recipe Tuesday!! Puffed Apple Pancake!

Good Morning everyone!  I wanted to post some of my favorite recipes on this blog, so Recipe Tuesday it is!!

 About a year ago I was at my Grandma's house and she was searching for a recipe.  She knew what it was supposed to be but didn't know the exact ingredients, we spent a couple hours combing through her recipes until I finally thought to google it and we came up with something very similar.  The end result was amazing, she always make food 10 times better than anyone else, but this is actually one recipe of hers that I can replicate and it comes very close.  This recipe is very easy and anyone can make it!

 Puffed Apple Pancake
  • 2 Apples(I like to use Gala, because they are my favorite to eat, but Granny Smith or Golden Delicious would work very well)
  • 4 TBSP (1/2 stick) Butter (original recipe calls for unsalted, but I wouldn't ever have that in my house, haha)
  • 1 Cup Milk
  • 4 Large Eggs
  • 3 TBSP Sugar
  • 1 TSP Vanilla Extract (I just use a lid full of it)
  • 1/2 TSP Salt
  • 1/4 TSP Ground Cinnamon (I use a little bit more)
  • 2/3 Cup All-Purpose Flour 
  • 3 TBSP Brown Sugar
Preheat oven to 425°F
Melt butter in the microwave
Peel and cut apples into thin slices and place in 9 x 13 pan 


Pour melted butter evenly over the apples, making sure to cover each one

Place in oven for 10 minutes or until apples are tender
While the apples are in the oven we will assemble the pancake part of the meal.
Mix the milk, eggs, sugar, vanilla, salt, and cinnamon in large bowl until well blended. 
Next add flour and whisk until batter is smooth.
At this point it should have been about 10 minutes, so pull the apples out of the oven and evenly pour the batter over the apples.  After the batter is on the apples, sprinkle the entire top with the brown sugar. Place back in the oven for 20 more minutes.


Voilà!  The perfect puffed apple pancake!  Sprinkle with powdered sugar or add maple syrup  This meal is great at any time of day

TV Shows that I don't care for, but I have tried really hard...

Image
I did a post on my favorite TV shows of all time, so now I am going to talk about TV Shows that I just don't care for, but have tried really hard to like.  These shows fall under a subcategory of "shows that people my age tend to like."  Many of the actors in these shows I like in other tv shows or movies, but I just don't like or am disappointed by these shows in particular.  Another thing to note is I have seen many episodes of each one of these shows and have given them all a fair shot.  Also, these are not in any particular order. Please don't be offended by this post as it is completely opinion based: Friends (1994-2004) - Most girls my age were and still are obsessed with this show.  I watched it in high school and college along with everyone else, but when I step back and actually think about the show, I never really liked it at all.  The characters were always making really bad decisions, acting slutty and not really caring about people around them; th

How did it get to be 2018?

Happy New Year!! I know I am 19 days late on the well wishes but 2018 was a rough start in my household. We got the flu and my husband and I were down for the count. We realized by the end of it that we haven't spent that much time together in our home since we first got married; but instead of it being a fun honeymoon busily settling into our new home it was a lot of cough syrup, chicken soup and video games.  The bright spot was I was able to introduce my husband to SNES' Zelda a Link to the Past. He had never played it!!  I know that game better than I know most things (I am a huge video game nerd) so it was fun playing it with him for the first time. I love making New Years resolutions, and I still did that this year but I am starting them a little late.  I decided the best way to get going with my resolutions is to share them on my blog.   1) Continue to Choose Happy:  A few years ago, I made some changes in my life and I decided to be happy and enjoy life.

New Years Resolution or Goal Setting?

Image
Every year I make the same resolutions; eat healthier, read my Bible daily and save more money.  Some years I have kept these going throughout the year and have done quite well but some years not so much.  This year I am not making resolutions but starting goals.  I know you may think that is the same thing but the difference is I am not going to hold myself to just this year, or if I fail in my goal I will just pick right up again and not wait until the end of a month or year.  Each day is a new day and if one day I fail, I will just pick up where I left off.   Here are some goals I am setting starting in this new year! 1) Eat/Live Healthier - This one is pretty self explanatory.  I need to stop all of my crazy eating habits.  I am not 18 and a distance runner anymore.  I cannot eat a pint of ice cream in one sitting.  (not that I have done that in many years, but you know what I mean.  I did eat 3 donuts in one sitting very recently.)  I am going to set the goal to work out as ma
