Easy Bananas Foster
Ingredients
- Butter: 4 tablespoons (60g)
- Dark brown sugar: 8 teaspoons (34g)
- Cinnamon: 0.8g
- Bananas: 4 bananas
- Dark rum: ½ cup (114ml)
Instructions
- Melt the butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon in a frying pan over medium heat and then add the bananas, cut side down.
- When the bananas are brown and caramelized, flip them over and brown the other side.
- Turn off the heat and let the pan cool for a minute or two.
- Slowly add the rum. Return to the heat and let the rum simmer for a minute or two, then evenly divide the bananas and sauce into your serving bowls.
- (Had to simmer this quite a while to cook down and thicken up, even a little. I was thinking of throwing in a little corn starch to see if that would bring it together. I chickened out.)
- Serve straight away topped with scoops of vanilla ice cream.
King Arthur Vegetable Quiche
From King Arthur
Ingredients
Crust
- pastry for 9" single-crust pie
Filling
- 1 cup (113g) grated cheese (such as cheddar, Gruyère, or Swiss)
- 3 large eggs (used 4)
- 3 tablespoons (21g) King Arthur Unbleached All-Purpose Flour
- 1/2 teaspoon table salt
- 1 1/2 cups (340g) buttermilk or milk (I used a cup of half and half and 1/2 cup milk)
- 1/2 to 1 teaspoon dried herbs, such as basil, thyme, oregano, marjoram (would probably either omit this or just use a little thyme)
- 1 teaspoon garlic, minced, optional (I used a bit of garlic powder as I was in a hurry)
- 2 cups sautéed or roasted vegetables*
*See "tips," below.
*We used roasted red peppers, marinated artichokes, sauteed mushrooms and onions, and sauteed spinach.
Topping (optional)
- 1 cup (113g) cheese, grated
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 425°F with a rack at the bottom.
To prepare the crust: Roll the pastry into a 13" circle and fit it into a 9" pie pan or 10" round tart pan. Trim the edges so there’s a 1" overhang all around, and crimp as desired.
(We used our all clad 9 inch round cake pans and this worked well. The plopped right out with the nonstick spray.)
Sprinkle the bottom of the crust with a thin layer of the cheese. This seals it, preventing it from becoming soggy. Set aside.*
*we just added the cheese into the filling, like a traditional quiche.
To make the filling: In a medium bowl, beat the eggs, flour, and salt until smooth. Whisk in the buttermilk.
Stir in the herbs, garlic, vegetables, and
remainingcheese.Pour the filling into the prepared crust. Sprinkle with additional cheese, if desired.
To bake the quiche: Bake the quiche on the bottom rack for 15 minutes, then reduce the heat to 350°F and bake for an additional 35 to 40 minutes, until the crust is golden brown.
Remove the quiche from the oven and place it on a rack to cool completely before serving.
We did not put on the bottom rack and had to recook the crust on the cooktop! So don't do that!
Easy Baked French Toast Casserole Recipe
From Kindly Unspoken website.
Ingredients
FRENCH TOAST
- 1 loaf of bread (Brioche or French recommended)
- 8 large eggs
- 1 1/2 cups milk
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 tbsp orange juice (optional)
BROWN SUGAR CINNAMON TOPPING
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tbsp light brown sugar
- 1 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/8 tsp salt
OPTIONAL TOPPINGS
Instructions
- Start by spraying a 9×13 baking dish (we did this in our large oval corning wear) liberally with non-stick cooking spray.
- Next, cut or tear your bread into cubes or small pieces and place into a large bowl. Set aside.
- In a separate large mixing bowl combine eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and
orange juiceand whisk until combined. - Pour the mixture over your bread cubes and gently fold until combined.
- Transfer coated bread to the prepared glass baking dish, cover, and refrigerate for a minimum of 2 hours or overnight.
- Once ready to bake, remove the casserole dish from the refrigerator and preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Prepare your brown sugar cinnamon topping by combining melted butter, brown sugar, sugar, cinnamon, and salt in a mixing bowl. Whisk until smooth.
- Spoon mixture evenly over the top of your French toast casserole and bake in the oven for 35-45 minutes or until it is a light golden brown and your desired level of crispiness.
- Place on a wire cooling rack to cool for 10 minutes. (It came out bubbling and I thought it wasn't done, but letting it cool firmed it up nicely)
- If desired, top with sifted powdered sugar or a drizzle of this maple syrup and enjoy!
