Spiced Peach Muffins

January 28, 2014 by A Savory Feast 4 Comments

Breakfast is definitely my favorite meal of the day. Pancakes, omelets, muffins, you name it, I love it. The only problem is there aren’t enough Saturday mornings to make breakfast! This morning I wanted some fruit muffins but the only thing I had in the house was canned peaches. It turns out, they work great!

I couldn’t find a recipe using canned peaches so I found a few that used fresh peaches and modified them a bit. Most of them called for oil but I decided to use the syrup from the canned peaches instead. I added cinnamon, nutmeg and all spice to give the muffins more flavor. The best part is how great the house smells while they are cooking!

Here’s the recipe:

2 1/4 cups flour
3 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp all spice
1/4 tsp nutmeg
3/4 tsp baking soda
3/4 tsp salt
2 eggs
1/2 cup sugar
1 (15.25 oz) canned peaches in syrup

1. Preheat the oven to 400.
2. Mix together the flour, cinnamon, all spice, nutmeg, baking soda and salt.
3. Stir in the eggs and sugar.
4. Add the peaches with syrup and sliced them as you stir.
5. Divide into 12 muffins. Bake for 25 minutes.

Quick Amish Cinnamon Bread

November 29, 2013 by A Savory Feast 1 Comment

I have many fond childhood memories of helping my mom making Amish Cinnamon Bread. While it was fun, it was a never-ending process, adding this ingredient and that ingredient to bags of dough and baking bread once a week. Eventually, it would get exhausting and we would stop making it.

Recently, I stumbled across a quick version of the recipe. I was excited to be able to make the bread again without having to wait a week, adding and mixing and repeating it all over the next week!

The result was just what I was hoping for: the distinctly sweet flavor and moist texture of Amish Cinnamon Bread without all the work! It made a delicious breakfast for the next few days; I just warmed up a piece in the microwave and ate it with my morning coffee.

Cinnamon/sugar mixture:

1 cup sugar
3 teaspoons cinnamon

Batter:

1 cup butter, softened
2 cups sugar
2 eggs
2 cups buttermilk (or 2 cups milk plus 2 tablespoons vinegar or lemon juice)
4 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking soda

In a small bowl, mix together the 1 cup of sugar and cinnamon. Butter or grease 2 loaf pans. Use some of the cinnamon sugar mixture to coat the pans. Next, cream together butter, 2 cups of sugar, and eggs. Mix in the milk, flour, and baking soda. Pour ¼ of the batter into each loaf pan. Sprinkle about half of the remaining cinnamon and sugar mixture on top of the batter. Add the rest of the batter to the pans and sprinkle the rest of the cinnamon sugar mixture on top. Bake at 350 degrees for 45-50 min. or until toothpick tester come clean.
