Cannelle et Vanille Resepi Raidah Simple Simon (pie in a jar) | LloydAndLauren.com The idea of ‘how clean is your house’ has been making the rounds on the sites, and Deanne commented that her house is her playpen – clean but not neat. Beth’s is her castle – tidy, but not overly clean. My house is my lab – always in a state of disarray. It’s not that I don’t clean, it’s that a clean room invites some sort of project to take place. Case in point. (Don’t fret – I cut off the yucky parts.) So, lids on and in the freezer. I love you, tiny pie in a jar! UPDATE: For Deanne (I wish I had a giant quarter, because that would be so funny!) On the off chance that anyone is reading this anymore, let me answer a few questions that came up in the comments. I can’t remember the recipe for this dough – it had shortening, water, flour, salt and I subbed out some vinegar and vodka for the water. I tried several ways of rolling out dough and trying to piece it in, but it actually worked best to just put chunks of dough in the jar and smash it around inside. I bake these at about 375 – 400.

Pie Crust Cinnamon Roll I love pie crust as evidenced here and here. I also love cinnamon rolls. So, naturally, I wanted to try and combine the two into a giant pie crust cinnamon roll. Flaky, buttery, cinnamon, brown sugar, raisins, no kneading, easy peasy. Pie Crust Cinnamon Roll Ingredients 1 recipe your favorite pie crust (enough for a single crust, nine-inch pie) Filling: 1/2 cup raisins 3/4 stick (6 tablespoons) butter 1/3 cup sugar 2 tablespoons cinnamon Topping 1/3 cup brown sugar 1/3 cup butter, melted More brown sugar for sprinkling (if desired) Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Roll out pie crust. Now, take one strip and start rolling it up, set roll on the next strip, pinch dough together at seam, and keep rolling, continue with the other strips of dough until the roll gets too big to roll. Transfer roll to pie pan, continue adding on strips of dough by rolling them around the already formed roll. Sprinkle with more brown sugar (optional, depends how sugary you want it!) Flip over onto a plate or serving tray.
