Mention the concept of a baked doughnut to any self-professed doughnut connoisseur, chances are you'll take some heat. The idea that a baked doughnut can match up to its deep-fried brethren is laughable in some circles. I'll concede they aren't the same, but baked doughnuts can be just as delicious - delicious yet different.
They get bonus points for being healthier and for not making the house smell like a greasy fry station. I spent the better part of Sunday trying to get the dough for these yeasted baked doughnuts right. Broadly speaking, if you can make pizza dough, you can make these. Many recipes call for water as the base liquid, I opted for milk (I like the softness of the milk-based rolls I've made in the past) and I baked batches at 375, 400, and 425. You can glaze these the way you would any other doughnut, but because I knew these were going to be at their pinnacle of taste minutes after coming out of the oven, I opted for a simple, classic, sugar dusting.

The first edition of this post was so popular last year, and is still bringing me search traffic (hi Googlers! Welcome to MomCooks!) That I am reposting the recipes along with some new information. Ever since my oldest son started all-day kindergarten, I’ve been on a quest to find brown bag lunch ideas that are tasty, fun, and provide servings from different food groups.
These are some of my boys’ favorite lunches, and the recipes come from a printout dated 08/19/04, with the URL 8 whole wheat crackers (My boys like the whole wheat Ritz) 8 ham squares (buy low fat ham slices, cut into a shape small enough to fit the cracker) 8 cheese squares (cut two 2% milk cheese slices into quarters) 8 grapes, or a small apple cut into 8 slices 8 baby carrots 8 celery sticks, or 8 small broccoli florets 8 animal crackers Notes: This always seems like a lot of food to me, but the lunch bags come back empty!

Anyway, I was in search for a great couscous recipe for our dinner party. I love couscous but lately have found it can be a bit bland and I was worried my old stand by recipes would be too bland paired with our pork. So I searched and asked on the cooking board I frequent and was given this recipe! It was great! Paired very very well with our pork tenderloin and roasted asparagus! Ingredients: 1 cup couscous-I used ww 1 cup boiling water-I used chicken broth to up the flavor 3 tablespoons olive oil 1 clove garlic, minced 1/4 cup diced red bell pepper 4 green onions, sliced 1 cup cherry tomatoes 1 cup fresh basil leaves 1 pinch salt 1 pinch ground black pepper 1 dash balsamic vinegar 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese Directions: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Not Quite Nigella » Food Processor Mayonnaise (to rival S&W!) My husband and I used to go through whopping great jars of S&W mayo. I admit I was a tad unhealthily obsessed with it, in both mind and body. I used to literally dip crackers in it and use it as a dip. Yes seriously. Until I tried making my own. The secret is good, fresh eggs and a mild flavoured oil. I made this once with a really strong fruity Greek olive oil and we couldn't eat it. Something like a Grapeseed oil or mildly flavoured Olive oil is ideal. Forget hand whipping and beating which will only give you a sore wrist and arm. 1 teaspoon seeded mustard lemon juice 1 teaspoon vinegar 1 whole egg 1 egg yolk 1 1/2 cups of mild flavoured oil (grapeseed or mild olive oil) in a pouring jug salt Step 1 - In food processor, blitz mustard, lemon juice and vinegar for 3-4 seconds until combined.
First adding the oil in, a runny yellow consistency 1/8 cup of oil left in the jug, now a thicker paler shade Step 2 - Through the pouring funnel, pour olive oil in a thin, steady stream. 3 . Honey-toasted Fruit Muesli Recipe. I've been wanting to dive into new muesli recipes recently. We've had an endless supply of homemade yogurt here at home ever since I bought Wayne a yogurt maker for his birthday a few months back. Some guys want watches or BBQ accessories for their birthdays, Wayne wanted a yogurt maker.
I waited until the last minute to track one down, and knew I was in trouble when the clerk in one kitchen appliance department looked at me and said they hadn't carried yogurt makers in over ten years. Of course they haven't. So, like I said - I've had my eyes peeled for an inspiring recipe that would pair well with the daily influx of new yogurt in our refrigerator. I have Michele's food + drink book. Her Honey-toasted Muesli caught my attention right off the bat. The dried fruit punctuates the seed and oat mixture and gives this muesli bursts of flavor and a beautiful appearance. Enjoy! HS notes: Michele's recipe calls for triticale. Preheat the oven to 300F degrees. Makes 12 servings.

Anghelika's Tsatsiki (Tzatziki) A few weeks ago, Tina and I went to a garden party hosted by our friends. A variety of authentic Greek foods were available for tasting and enjoyment as we had a good time chatting with friends, meeting new people, and watching children play. In particular, we found that we kept going back to the blend of spicy garlic and cool cucumber in the tsatsiki.
We asked Anghelika for the recipe, and she related the procedure to us as taught to her by her grandmother, Anghelika. The ingredient ratios are pretty flexible with this recipe. Start with 1 pint (470 mL) Greek-style yogurt, 2 cloves garlic, 1 medium cucumber (we'll actually only use half a cucumber), 1 tablespoon (15 mL) red wine vinegar, and 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil. Anghelika says her grandmother kept telling her to make sure to remember the vinegar (as if it was the secret to her tsatsiki recipe). The amount of garlic used in this recipe is up to the individual's taste. Peel the garlic cloves and cut off the woody ends. How to master the gentle art of braising – even for vegetarians. Back during my month of being a vegetarian, I remember feeling a little antsy. And it wasn’t that I was missing eating meat.
You see the leaves were well and truly past turning brown and I was hanging out in the snowy mountains. And while it hadn’t actually snowed yet, Winter was well on it’s way – just the weather for hearty braising. I was aching for a long leisurely afternoon, hanging out on the couch with a pot of something gently bubbling away in the oven. Rewarding with rich wonderful aromas every time the oven is opened for a little peek and a little stir. What is braising? Braising is basically slow cooking food, usually meat with some liquid, at low temperatures for a long time.
Tips for successful braising lower temperatures for longer time are best You can’t rush a good braised dish. Aromatic veg make a difference I pretty much always start a braise by softening some chopped onion. If you don’t have an flame-proof casserole dish, just allow an extra half hour.

There are few things tastier than golden, crusty, pan-fried chickpeas - and this is where we start. It also features chopped kale, summer squash, and a bit of tofu.

28 Cooks - Spicy Italian. Just Because It's Vegan - Spicy Italian Sauzage It's been quite some time since we've had a "Just Because It's Vegan" recipe. The premise of the JBIV recipes is that vegan food is quite delicious, despite the stereotype that all vegans and vegetarians eat is cardboard and salad.
So this is a recipe that's been floating around the Internet for quite some time, sort of like Susan V's Ribz. I've had a few recipes and variations printed out to try for quite some time, but I just never got around to it. Thankfully I gave it a try. I'm not kidding you when I say these are absolutely delicious. This variation came from "Don't Eat Off the Sidewalk," and it's pretty much true to the way she made it.
