Wow, fall is setting in and instantly taste buds are perking up for something warm, fluffy, soft and easy...
I came across recipes for Sandwich pillow cakes online by some talented cooks. Quick and easy cooking has been my passion and yeah ! I wanted to try this.... with a twist.
My hubby and me have always wanted to fix breakfast at home, that is not store bought.
So here I was, with my experiemental hat on...viola - Breakfast /Dessert Energy Cake made in Sandwich maker.
Ingredients:-
1/2 cup all purpose flour
1/2 cup powdered oatmeal (can powder quaker oats in coffee grinder or blender)
1/4 cup powdered nuts (any nuts)
5 or 6 dates (pitted and chopped)
2 eggs (can substitute mashed bananas for eggs)
1 cup milk
2 tsp baking powder
Honey (or raw sugar) - per taste
Method:-
Whip all the ingredients into a liquidy mix (not too runny nor thick, just enough to be liquidy)
Warm up Sandwich maker
Spray oil once warm
Pour batter in sandwich maker and serve when cooked
(with or without sugar syrup, dusted cinnamon powder, whipped cream, jello and/or icecream for dessert)
I can think of numerous recipes with the same technique (yippy... so excited).
Can add cheese to mix, with finely chopped veggies, salt, any other desired seasoning (minus sugar) for cheesy breakfast.
Can add fine chopped fruits in place of dates.
Can use chocolate and fruits in place of nuts and dates.
Can use flax seed powder in place of oatmeal
No need for pre-heated oven, NO-BAKE cake traingles is a possibility with instant cake mix too.
Get creative....
