Breakfast (17)
Bagels are easy to make. This easy recipe can produce a finished Bagel in less than 1 hour. This recipe makes 1 single bagel.
Dutch Baby is the sweeter, more pancaker version of Yorkshire pudding. The batter can be made as much as 3 days in advance. The finished Dutch Baby can be topped with fresh fruit, maple syrup, or even powdered sugar.
This easy to make semi-flat bread recipe is ready to go in only 15 or 20 minutes. It will add a rustic dimension to any meal.
/Fuwa fuwa/ is Japanese for "light and fluffy". /Pankēki/ of course, is the Japanese word for "Pancakes". Surprisingly, this Japanese breakfast treat originally came from the United States. Fuwa fuwa Pancakes originated from a restaurant in Waikīkī Hawai'i. In order to achieve the tall cakes, you will need Pastry Rings or Ceramic Ramekins. I prefer to use pastry rings that are about 2.5 inches across and at least 2.5 inches tall. In order to cook the center without burning the bottom, Pankēki should be cooked with relatively low heat.
This simple recipe provides a tangy yogurt that is great for tzatziki or to eat plain. You can use any fat content, from Skim to Whole Milk. I prefer a lower fat yogurt, with Skim Milk. This recipe yields about 4 Cups of Greek Yogurt.
Polenta is a dish from Northern Italy, similar to Grits from the US South. Polenta (and Grits) are made from coarsely ground yellow corn. Polenta can be cooked, poured into a mold and shaped. Refrigerating the polenta for a few hours, or overnight, will set the shape. Then, you can grill or pan sear the Polenta and serve it warm.
These single serving quiche cups use baked Hash Browns for the crust. This quiche can be easily made in a single large pie tin, however, the individual cups provide a convenient way to accommodate for "less adventurous" eaters: each eater can choose their own ingredients.
For this recipe, I use large (12 oz) silicone Cupcake Baking Cups. You could also use a large muffin pan, with disposable paper muffin pan inserts.
This recipe is currently written to make One (1) 12 oz. serving, but it can be easily scaled.
The filling can include any ingredients from your favorite omelet recipe.
Koláč or Kolach /kəˈläch/ (the singular form), meaning a "cake", is a traditional Czech pastry, filled with fruit compote and/or quark cheese or soft new cheese. Koláčé or Kolache /kəˈlächē/ (the plural form) was brought to the United States during the European Texas migration of the late 1800's. Contrary to the menu at any donut shop in Texas, there is no dish called a savory Kolach. A savory Kolach should be called a Klobásník /kləˈbäsnik/ (the singular form), meaning a "small sausage" or Klobásníky /kləˈbäsˈnik ē/ (the plural form). Surprisingly, the Klobásník is not a traditional Czech dish, although it was invented by a Czech immigrant, living in Texas. This dough recipe can be used to make both Kolache and Klobásníky.
Leftover Mashed Potatoes are often left to sit in the refrigerator for a few weeks until they are eventually discarded. This is an easy, tasty, and fun way to use the leftovers that might ordinarily go to waste. Eat warm or drizzle with leftover gravy.
Menemen (Turkish Eggs) is a made with tomatoes and scrambled eggs. The pan roasted tomatoes from the bottom of the pan provide a beautiful presentation and the smokey flavor of the Aleppo peppers, paired with the Jalapeño pepper, provides the perfect amount of heat. This quick and easy dish provides a single serving. To make multiple servings, just wipe out the inside of the pan with a paper towel and start again.
Quiche Meringue is a unique breakfast dish that is relatively easy to make. Phyllo Dough is available from most grocery stores, in your refrigerated section. To reduce preparation time, you an replace the Phyllo Dough with Canned Refrigerated Croissant dough.
You can replace the Ham with Chicken cubes or even Steak cubes. Additional vegetables could be added, like grilled tomatoes or chopped peppers.
Dutch Baby Pancakes are a fun and tasty breakfast treat. But adding a drizzle of Raspberry Syrup, just before it goes in the oven will create the perfect sweet breakfast. A proper rise is accomplished by cooking the Dutch Baby rapidly. For best results, ensure that the pan is well heated, and that the batter is room temperature, before it is poured into the pan.
This is a fun and tasty frittata that is easy to make. For a little variation, you can add finely chopped onions, tomatoes, and peppers, or baby spinach.
Shakshouka (sometimes called Saksouka) is a staple of Tunisian, Libyan, Algerian, Moroccan, and Egyptian cuisines. It is also a common breakfast and dinner food in Israel and often eaten with bread to soak up the sauces. The word "Shakshouka" comes from Arabic and means "to mix or shake"
Shakshouka (sometimes called Saksouka) is a staple of Tunisian, Libyan, Algerian, Moroccan, and Egyptian cuisines. It is also a common breakfast and dinner food in Israel and often eaten with bread to soak up the sauces. This recipe is specialized to make in a slow cooker.
These oven-baked sheet pan Pancakes are the perfect versatile breakfast treat. If you are using Blueberries, mixing them into the batter will dye your batter a blueish-gray color. This can be prevented by dropping in each Blueberry after all the mixing and pouring is complete. The Flavorings in this recipe can be replaced with any other Pancake add-in: Strawberries, Chocolate and Caramel, Candies, whatever you like.
Toad in the Hole is a traditional British dish where sausages are cooked in Yorkshire pudding. The various steps required to successfully create Yorkshire pudding are oftentimes approached with all the fervor of religious dogma. However, good Yorkshire Pudding is actually quite easy to make. The batter can be made 30 minutes to 3 days in advance. The heated oven and preheated pan causes the Yorkshire pudding to rise and then crisp, as it turns a golden brown color. As a side note, if the pudding fails to rise properly, the dish is called "Toad in the Bog". Toad in the Hole is traditionally topped with grilled onions and a few scoops of beef or chicken gravy.
