Buttermilk Yeast Rolls
Monday, January 4th, 2010
I hope everyone had a wonderful New Year’s Day. We enjoyed a wonderful ham, turnips, buttermilk mashed potatoes, and spicy black-eyed peas. I also made these yeast rolls for the first time. They were the most delicious rolls I have ever had. The buttermilk makes them so tender. The small amount of added sugar makes [...]

Tuesday, November 24th, 2009
Happy Thanksgiving everyone. I will just be making this one post this week, and taking the rest of the week off from blogging to spend time with family, cook, fall cleaning, shopping, and decorating for Christmas.

Apple bread is a quick and delicious baked good for fall. Quick breads are perfect for breakfast, snacks, or dessert. They also make wonderful gifts and are great for bake sales. Apples and caraway seeds are a perfect match in this bread, and a wonderful alternative to apple and cinnamon. For this recipe, I used [...]

Butter Palm or Appalachian Biscuits
Saturday, June 13th, 2009
These are a delicious family recipe. This is the method that my mom, grandmother, granny, and her mother, and her mother made biscuits. I can only assume that this method that has been passed down in my family came from a time when no one had rolling pins, or thought to cut a biscuit out [...]
Blueberry Muffins
Friday, May 29th, 2009
I tried several blueberry muffin recipes, before coming up with this one. I noticed that recipes for blueberry muffins in old cookbooks have about half the amount of sugar as modern cookbooks and recipes. So I compromised, so the muffins aren’t too sweet or sour. However, if your blueberries are super sweet, you may want [...]
