Caramel baked apple

Posted by

Ingredients for 2:

  • 2 crisp apples
  • 2 tablespoon butter
  • 3 tbsp brown sugar, packed
  • 1 tablespoon flour
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 4 caramels

Instructions:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
  • To get the blooming apple look, you need to cut the apples. Slice off the top ¼ of the apples. Scoop out the core. Then, use a thin knife to make two deep circular cuts around the center of the apple. Next, turn the apple over and make narrow cuts all the way around the apple. Flip it back over and you can see all of the cuts.

  • Place the apples in an oven safe dish and put two caramels into the center of each apple.

  • Remove from the oven and use a large spoon to move the apples into bowls.

How to make mini corn dogs

Posted by

What you’ll need:

2 cups all-purpose flour (plus a bit extra for coating the hotdogs before dipping in batter)

3/4 cup ground yellow cornmeal

1/2 cup white sugar

2 tsp salt

1 tsp baking soda

1-1/2 cups milk

2 eggs

2 packages hot dogs (beef, chicken or pork, your choice!)

Directions:

In a large bowl, combine the flour, cornmeal, sugar, salt and baking soda. Add in the milk and eggs and mix well until no lumps are remaining.

Cut hotdogs into 1/3 (thirds). Coat in flour and shake to remove excess.

In a saucepan, heat oil to 350°F. Dip the hot dogs into the batter and carefully put into the hot oil. Fry for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown. When done, place onto a paper towel lined plate or wire rack. Serve with ketchup, mustard, cheese or whatever dipping sauce you prefer. Makes 48 mini corn dogs. Enjoy!
