I found this recipe a few years ago in Family Circle. This time of year we are obsessed with all things apple. This is a winner in our book.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cup Flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup butter salted (divided)
2/3 cup sugar
2 eggs
1tsp vanilla
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
2 large granny smith apples, peeled, cored and cut into 1/4 inch slices
1. Heat oven to 375. Mix flour, baking powder and salt in a medium size bowl. Set aside.
2. With a mixer beat on high speed 1/2 cup butter for one minute until creamy. Add sugar and continue to beat until light and fluffy.
3. Add eggs, vanilla and beat until blended. Reduce speed to low while gradually adding in flour, then sour cream.
4. Melt remaining butter in a 10 inch skillet (oven proof). Add brown sugar and stir for 2 minutes. Add apple slices to the pan and reduce heat to medium low. Cook for about 10 minutes or until tender. Let sit for 5 minutes. Spoon batter over the apples and spread to the edge of the pan. Bake at 375 for 30 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on a rack for 20 minutes. Run a knife around the edge and slide onto a plate.
****A cast iron skillet work wonderfully for this recipe. Yummy and so rustic. :)
A place to capture the sweet memories with the people I love doing what we love the most...so could you pass the taters please...

Ham and Broccoli Quiche
I love breakfast food...not the pancakes, waffles and such but the meat, eggs and potatoes. I just can't get enough of it. This is an easy and delicious fav in our house. It can also be frozen. So make one for dinner and freeze a second. :)
Ingredients:
1 pie pie crust- we use Pillsbury refrigerated.
1 1/2 cups ham, cubed
1 1/2 cup shredded swiss
1 cup chopped broccoli
4 eggs
1 cup milk
1/2 tsp salt1/2 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp dry mustard
Preheat oven to 375 and place pie crust in the baking dish. Layer the ham, cheese and broccoli. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and milk. Then stir in the remaining ingredients. Pour over the broccoli. Bake for 30-45 minutes or until knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Let stand for 5-10 minutes.

Cinnamon Bun Cake- Easy Peasy!
Give me butter, cinnamon and sugar and I am in heaven. FOR REAL! I love all things cinnamon. This recipe is fab-fab-fab! Fully loaded to the max with fat and calories and worth every single pound!! :) I have eaten this whole cake by myself..over 2 days of course.:) This is a great substitute for cinnamon buns---that experiment was a major flop in our house. I am not a gifted bread maker...at all.
Ingredients:
Cake:
3 cups flour
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup sugar
4 tsp baking powder
1 1/2cups milk
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla
1/2 cup butter, melted
Topping:
1 cup butter, softened
1 cup brown sugar
2 tbsp flour
1 tbsp cinnamon
Glaze:
2 cups powdered sugar
5 tbsp milk
1 tsp vanilla
Mix together dry ingredients, then add the wet ingredients---make sure you add the butter last. Pour the batter into a greased 9×13 pyrex. In a separate bowl, mix the topping ingredients. Drop onto cake batter and use a knife to swirl it through the cake (marble like). Bake for 25-30 minutes at 350 degrees. Mix together glaze ingredients, whisking until smooth. Drizzle over warm cake, and serve.

Sausage Gravy
I love the sausage gravy at Bob Evans. I was browsing the internet a few years ago to find a comparable recipe and I do believe that this one is better, plus I don't have to travel to Ohio to eat it!
ingredients:
1 lb sage flavored sausage
1/4 cup finely chopped yellow onion
6 tbsp flour
4 cups whole milk---this does make a difference
1/2 tsp poultry seasoning
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp salt
2 dashes worchestershire sauce
2 dashes tabasco sauce
2 tbsp butter
1. In a 4 quart sauce pan, heat over medium high heat. Crumble sausage and let brown for 2 minutes, the turn down to medium heat, cooking until there is no pink. stir in onions and cook until they are transparent.
2. Turn pan back to medium high heat and add flour slowly and cook for 6-8 minutes until the mixture is golden brown and starts bubbling.
3. Stir in pultry seasoning, nutmeg, worchestershire sauce, tabasco and salt. Cook for 1 more minute. Slowly add milk and cook over medium heat until thick, about 15 minutes. Stir occasionally.
This feeds about 10 people unless I am there, then it will feed about 5. :)
