Finally... The recipes! (Breakfast)

Hey - so there a week later than planned... anticipation is sometimes a good thing right?  I know there were a few requests for those Apple Pancakes so we'll start there :)

Apple Pancakes (Tackmann Family Recipe)

1 dozen eggs
1  1/2 cups flour
1  1/2 cups milk
5-6 apples (your favorite)
(I also recommend cinnamon)

Pour all into a blender and mix.
Butter the bottom of a 12" frying pan and pour batter to cover - place sliced apples on top (be generous and add some cinnamon), check the bottom until cooked (very similar to an omelet)  when cooked, FLIP (it can be done - promise! or you could have a second pan ready to go) - when finished serve on a very big plate or plan to split it :)   I would imagine cooking in a small true omelet size frying pan would work too.  Top with syrup if you'd like!


Fruit Croissants

2-3 tubes of pillsbury croissants
pie filling, your choice (apple was my favorite)
sprinklings of sugar and cinnamon

Super simple - preheat oven as directed.  simply layer the croissant pieces with filling and roll up as normal.  Sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon and bake - cool on a cooling rack.  You could let them cool then partial freeze on the pan then throw them in a big freezer bag or container.  Thaw them over night and bake as directed the morning of hosting guests or just wanting something delicious :)

Egg Sandwiches

12 eggs
splash of milk or water
chopped ham, turkey or sausage
fresh veggies (your favorites)
shredded cheese
whole wheat english muffins

again, super simple.  Preheat oven to 350.  Mix 12 eggs and about 1/3 cup water.  Divide mixture between a very WELL buttered cupcake pan.  fill remainder of the cups with your meat and veggies if you'd like.  Bake for 20-22 minutes.  Remove them from the pan and let them cool a bit.  Place each individual egg on an english muffin and top with shredded cheese.  Wrap tightly in foil (don't forget to label the outside if you make different kinds).  Then place in a large freezer bag.   Grab your desired amount out the morning you want them.  Place them in the oven at 350 on a cookie sheet (still wrapped) for 30 minutes.  The BAM a healthy egg sandwich to start your day :)
