Something different with coffee or tea or for a special brunch.
Pastries
Maple Bacon Monkey Bread
Sweet and salty monkey bread with a delicious twist – bacon! This recipe was created from two existing recipes, with the idea courtesy of the St. Louis Post Dispatch.
Cinnamon Pretzels
My favorite food? Soft gooey cinnamon pretzels! The only problem, I can’t always drive to the mall to get them, so here is a solution! Best when served warm.
Grandma Georgie’s Cardamom Rolls
They take awhile to make, but these rolls are a family favorite through 4 generations. Gramma Georgie made these for every family get-together for at least 50 years. They’re perfect for sandwiches, dinner rolls, or toasted for breakfast. These can rise overnight in the fridge.
Florence’s Famous Cinnamon Rolls
This is Florence Hendrickson’s recipe for light, airy, delicious cinnamon rolls. She baked them often, and friends and family all raved about them. Florence will be remembered in our hearts, and she would have loved to share this recipe for you all to enjoy!
Mom-Mom’s Sticky Buns
Famous in my family and always looked forward to when being prepared by my grandmother. My father demands that it is made for his birthday breakfast each year. Best enjoyed warm out of the oven.
Healthier Clone of a Cinnabon
Who doesn’t love a Cinnabon? These taste so yummy but I always look for a way to make things a little healthier without changing the taste. I just spread a little less butter and use Neufchatel cheese and this recipe still tastes great.
Amazing Monkey Bread
This recipe is a big treat, and I often make it at our lake house when we takes guests there. Use the maximum amount of brown sugar listed and all of the pudding package for a sweeter dish. The corn syrup makes it gooey! Make sure you plan ahead – this recipe needs to sit overnight.
Pistachio Hazelnut Baklava
Making Baklava is a long process, but you will find the results of your labors rich and rewarding with this wonderful recipe.
Overnight Cinnamon-Raisin Swirl Bread
This yeast bread is a cold-rise version. The good thing about it is that you can make plain yeast rolls out of it, or make it into a cinnamon-raisin swirl loaf. Plus, this dough will last about 1 week, if you keep it wrapped in plastic wrap in your refrigerator.
German Apple Strudel
This recipe was handed down to me by my Austrian-born Grandmother and I make it all the time, so please do trust me! I am sincere!
French Short Pastry
This recipe was given to me by a woman that makes savory tarts in a small town in the south of France. I found her crust and process to be the most delicious, simple and logical of all the crusts I’ve ever made.
Easy Cinnamon Rolls
The first time I made these, I made a mess and they STILL turned out! They are gone in 2 days at my house. Simple to make and super yummy.
