For those of you who are “Kansas City friends”… You are probably aware of the fact that I have a booth out at Trendz Market. Well, I have to let you in on some breaking news. This week (thru next Tuesday), I have the “item of the week” (big gasp; then silence…) Yes. It’s true. While you are sitting here reading my blog post, you could be up at Trendz saving 20% on anything french…! Oooo la la, my friends. (Click on my Facebook page if you want a “sneak peek” at some of the featured items! For store hours and info, click on “shop with me at Trendz” link at the top of my blog site) OK. Maybe you are not here in Kansas City, or you are a new reader of my blog, and therefore have no idea what Trendz is… No worries. Simply click on the links at the top of this blog page…”who is creations by cathy” and “shop with me at trendz”. That should get you up-to-date. So now you’re sad. You wish that you lived here so that you could stop by Trendz and check it out. I’m sorry. I do, however, have two bits of good news that might cheer you up a bit.
Number one; I am working on getting a little shopping page together so that I can share some of my Creations goodies with all of my friends, near or far. It will be the “shop now” link at the top of this blog site. I will keep you posted.
And reason number two (the more delicious of the two); I found this yummy looking recipe at Camille Styles blog site. (Thank you, Camille!) Indulge and enjoy…
Baked French Breakfast Donuts
Adapted from Cooks.com
- 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 1/2 cups flour
- 2 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoons salt
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/2 cup milk (I used whole milk)
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Coat donut pan generously with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
- Cream together butter and sugar until fluffy. Add egg; mix well.
- Sift flour, baking powder, salt and nutmeg together. Add dry ingredients alternately with milk.
- Fill donut tins half full. Bake 15-20 minutes. Take out of pan immediately and swirl tops into melted butter, then sugar and cinnamon mixture. Makes 6-7 big donuts.
*Note: These work just as well in a muffin tin, too!
