Apple Walnut Muffins

Apple Walnut Muffins

Keep me as the apple of the eye,
hide me under the shadow of thy wings.
Psalm 17:8

This is always a hectic time of year, as we get started back with our school work. Although this often brings about a good many changes in our planned menu, I have found it better to not exactly follow the plan, as to have no clue what's for supper. We had enough leftovers for supper tonight, so I didn't cook. I may make the pizza I had planned for tonight for our lunch one day.

I did make these Apple Walnut Muffins for Larry to take to "The Crew" this morning. There were enough for our breakfast, too. We all liked them, and it was a great way to use more of Mr. Willie's apples! I didn't add the cinnamon, because Larry doesn't care for it. They were still very yummy - and moist!

Apple Walnut Muffins

2 cups chopped apples
3/4 cup sugar
1 1/2 cups self-rising flour
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
2 large eggs, beaten
1/2 stick butter, melted and slightly cooled

Chop apples and stir in sugar. Sit aside about 10 minutes to let apples release their juices.

Sift the dry ingredients together. Add nuts, stirring to coat. Set aside.

Whisk together eggs and butter; fold egg mixture and apples into dry ingredients.

Spoon into muffin pan that has been sprayed with cooking spray. Bake until golden brown, 10 - 15 minutes.

Condensed Cheddar Cheese Soup Substitute - Regular and Reduced-Fat Versions

Although very convenient, commercially prepared condensed soups are expensive and may contain additives and ingredients you'd prefer to skip. You can use these condensed soup substitutes in dishes instead of commercially prepared condensed soups. These homemade substitutes are very easy and quick to make! They taste much better, too. I have almost stopped purchasing the canned versions. Using heart-healthy butter spreads, low-fat or fat-free milk, and low-sodium broth allows you to make these recipes more healthful. You can customize with these simple recipes by adding other seasonings such as garlic powder, celery salt, onion powder, etc. Condensed Cream of Celery Soup Condensed Cream of Chicken Substitute Condensed Cream of Mushroom Substitute Condensed Cheddar Cheese Soup Substitute 3 tablespoons butter 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour 1 cup milk 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese salt, to taste Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat; add flour and whisk until s...

Dough Burgers

  Dough Burgers Dough burgers are popular in our neck of the woods. Phillips Grocery in Oxford has received national acclaim for their top-secret-recipe dough burger. I ate two while I was staying at the hospital with my dad recently! It is the nearest restaurant!  When Larry and I were newlyweds and living in New Albany, we loved going to Latham’s for their yummy version of this delicious sandwich. Several other area cities also offer well-known versions of this unique burger. Tupelo’s Johnny’s Drive-In has the "Johnnieburger," and Corinth even has a festival named in honor of their dough burger, affectionately known as “The Slugburger.” Here in our own dear Pontotoc, we love the "Wonderburger" at Butcher Block! Dough burgers supposedly originated during the Great Depression. Adding flour was a great way to stretch hamburger meat. While possibly born out of necessity, it has remained a part of the Southern diet due to its delectable taste. I’ve eaten my share ...
