Monkey Bread Kabobs

Monkey bread on a stick! My granddaughter and I were looking for a new way to make monkey bread when we came up with this idea. Fresh pineapple chunks may also be added.

Apple Strudel Dessert

This apple dessert is really delicious and so easy. It actually does taste like the old apple strudel my grandmother made. Hope you enjoy it.

Gluten-Free Cinnamon Rolls

From the Kitchen of Janae at Pink Dandy Chatter (http://www.pinkdandychatter.com/).

Pumpkin Cream Puffs

Impressive, but surprisingly simple to make. A classic puff recipe with a delicious variation in the filling for your fall and winter table.

Cheater’s Apple Strudel

Using prepared puff pastry makes baking this apple strudel a little easier and quicker than some of the more ‘traditional’ recipes! You can serve this hot or cold. It’s delicious topped with cream!

Sticky Buns I

Yum! What can be better than a hot sticky bun for breakfast-or a late night snack? Pop one (leftover) into the microwave for a few seconds to make them taste fresh from the oven.

A great substitute for those heavy, buttery cinnamon roll recipes. This one will blow you away. Just remember that the dough before the first rising may be a bit sticky, but not adding any more flour at this point guarantees a fluffy masterpiece.

Mom’s Jiffy Cinnamon Rolls

This is my favorite recipe because it is so quick. Frost if desired.

Chinese Cocktail Buns

These cocktail buns are like the ones you get at Chinese bakeries. They are filled with a creamy coconut filling. Yum!

Apple Strudel

Use ready made phyllo pastry and homemade apple filling.

Apricot Kolaches

Kolaches are a Czech recipe that are traditionally made with a yeast dough and fruit filling. In this version a non-yeasted dough is used. Variations include: cottage cheese, prune and apricot. All are somewhat sweet and can be drizzled with a light powder sugar/milk frosting, but traditionally kolaches are not frosted. I hope this is what you were looking for !! If ever in Oklahoma, check out the Czech Festival in Yukon, OK. The ladies of the community make about 2000 plus dozen Kolaches for sale during the festivities !!!

Blitz Puff Pastry

Classical puff pastry has close to a thousand separate layers of butter and dough. Blitz puff pastry doesn’t puff as high, but it sure is easier to make at home!

Cinnamon Buns

Nothing beats cinnamon buns on a cold morning.

Almond Bear Claws

These flaky Danish pastries are a time-consuming project, but they’re a perfect way to show people how much you love them! I like serving them at special brunches. The puff pastry dough and almond filling can be made ahead of time, and the pastries can be frozen before baking.

Basic Sweet Dough

I have made plenty of sweet breads, and I always favored the Hungarian Coffee Cake and Swedish Tea Ring. This sweet dough recipe is my mother’s, and this works out really well because it is an old recipe. I have also used others which were more recent and still turned out well, but this one is the best I have found. Use this recipe for the basis of your sweet breads.

Cinnamon Rolls From Frozen Bread Dough – EASY

Made with frozen bread dough, these cinnamon rolls are super-easy to make and super-tasty without all the work.

Grandma’s Yeast Rolls

I have adapted these yeast rolls from my grandmother’s yeast bread recipe. I have increased the sugar to create a little sweeter roll than Grandma used to make and replaced her refrigerated cake yeast with dried (easier availability). They are delicious served with Danish Lurpak® butter (it’s a little tangy, just like Grandma’s)! Rolls can be made the night before and reheated, covered in foil, at 300 degrees F for about ten minutes.
