Dutch Puff

Dutch Puff

Dutch Puff

(This is one of those recipes that I really don’t remember where I got it from.)

Ingredients:

  • 1 stick butter
  • 8 eggs
  • 2 c. milk
  • 2 c. all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 t. salt. optional
  • 1 T. vanilla, optional

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400.

Put the stick of butter in a 9×13 pan or a 12-inch castiron skillet and place it in the oven to melt while you prepare the puff.

Beat eggs, milk, flour, and salt until smooth and then another minute more, stir in the vanilla.

Remove pan from the oven and pour the mixture into the melted butter.

Bake for 20-30 minutes, until golden brown.

When you get the puff out of the oven it will be golden and puffed, lovely.

Serve immediately. If you wait it will deflate.

Top with molasses, honey, fresh fruit, confectioners sugar or maple syrup. Maybe even try it with Blueberry Syrup or one of the homemade fruit pie fillings found HERE.

For a special change try making individual servings of dutch puff in oven-safe ramekins. Again this is fun for the company. You can prepare ahead of time and then pop them in the oven as each person wakes.

For Sourdough Dutch Puff:

decrease the milk to 1/3 c. and use 2 c. sourdough starter in place of the flour.

Deviled Eggs

Published on by Susie @ Pollywog's Place Blog25 Comments

We love eggs, as I’ve said many a time before, and deviled eggs usually show up on the holidays or any special occasion. This is just a basic version of deviled eggs. I have seen others that use relish and hot sauce, even one that was called a ‘Sanctified Egg’.

This is one of those recipes that I really don’t measure at all. I just add and taste. I’ve tried to get the amounts as close as possible but you can adjust them to your taste.

Boiled Eggs

Published on by Susie @ Pollywog's Place Blog10 Comments

We like eggs no matter how they are cooked. I love them in salads, deviled, and even pickled. All of these recipes call for boiled eggs though. That elusive boiled egg that seems like it should be so easy but can make even the calmest cook lose patience when the eggs refuse to give up those shells without making a mess of the egg beneath.

One of my fondest memories revolves around my mom-mom, my mom, and me in the kitchen trying to peel eggs. My mom-mom had her way to do it and my mom had her way. Me, I hadn’t a clue and we laughed so much at each of our attempts. It was a wonder that we managed to have enough eggs to make the deviled eggs that day!

There are a million and one, at least, ways to make a boiled egg. We can make them on the stove, in the microwave, in the oven, and I think there are gadgets to make the perfect boiled egg. I don’t know about all the other methods but this is the tried and true method we use here.

I recently found an even easier way to boil eggs using my Power Cooker. Check out this method HERE. Continue reading “Boiled Eggs” →

My kids love grits, buttered grits, cheesy grits, and especially bacon grits! This is a super simple way to prepare them when you are short on time. My kids usually eat these served over their scrambled eggs with some jelly toast on the side. Continue reading “Bacon Grits/Cheesy Grits” →

Hash Brown Breakfast Casserole

I’m thinking that I may try adding some cooked bacon the next time. This would also be good with some sautéed onions and/or bell peppers. Continue reading “Hash Brown Breakfast Casserole” →
