Applesauce Breakfast Cake

Keep me as the apple of your eye, hide me under the shadow of thy wings.

Applesauce Breakfast Cake

 This little cake was well received in Sunday School this morning. It was a snap to put together and had a nice, moist texture. I will add the photo when I find my cord. Unfortunately, it is still missing!

Topping:
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons butter
½  teaspoon cinnamon
½ cup chopped pecans

Cake:
2 cups self-rising flour
1 cup sugar
½  teaspoon cinnamon
½ cup chopped pecans
2 eggs
1/2 cup cooking oil
1 cup applesauce
1 teaspoon vanilla

Optional Glaze:
1¼ cups confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon melted butter
3 tablespoons milk or apple juice

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Coat a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
Make topping by mixing together the brown sugar, butter and cinnamon. Stir in nuts and set aside.

For cake, whisk together flour and sugar.  Stir in nuts, tossing to coat well.
Add well-beaten eggs, applesauce, oil and vanilla; mix well.
Pour batter into prepared pan.
Sprinkle topping over batter.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, until done.
Remove from oven.

For an extra special treat, drizzle cake with a glaze made by combining glaze ingredients.

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 ...
