Cherry Muffins

 This recipe makes either one large cherry muffin or two small cherry muffins.

  • 3/8 egg or 4 1/2 teaspoons egg substitute
  • 2 tablespoons and 2 teaspoons white sugar
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons butter, softened
  • 2 tablespoons and 2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
  • 1/8 teaspoon baking powder
  • a pinch of salt (just pinch a few grains between your forefinger and thumb)
  • 1 tablespoon and 1 teaspoon milk
  • 2 tablespoons chopped, fresh bing cherries (not canned)
  • 2 tablespoons chopped pecans

    1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
    2. In a small bowl, beat egg (or egg substitute) and sugar together using a fork; add butter and beat well.
    3. Using a fork, whisk together flour, baking powder and salt. Add the flour mixture to the egg mixture, along with the milk. Fold in the cherries and pecans; stir just until moistened.
    4. Spoon the batter into a greased or paper-lined muffin pan and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

    Impossible Coconut Pie for 1

    Image
    Sweet little snack for 1! Great for portion control. I never had an Impossible Coconut Pie so I decided to go through my first batch of non picture posts and start testing those recipes out. One obstacle is finding a reasonable egg substitute. Some have very unorthodox egg measurements for a small batch recipe so I will have to figure that out. This was the first easy recipe I saw.  Made with this 10 oz square ceramic . Enjoy!  Ingredients:  1/4 cup milk 2 tablespoons flaked coconut 2 tablespoons applesauce (see notes) 1/8 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour 2-1/4 teaspoons margarine (see notes) 1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon sugar 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees 2. Mix milk, coconut, eggs, vanilla, flour, margarine, and sugar in blender.  3. Pour into a greased, single-serving custard dish. Sprinkle nutmeg on top.  4. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. 5. Allow ...

    Small Batch Snickerdoodle Cupcake Crumbl Cookies

    Image
      I am totally late to the Crumbl crowd but hey better late than never. I LOVE snickerdoodle cookies but Crumbl are known for oversized cookies that have a cakey texture to it and today I thought I'd share a recipe to make half a dozen cookies! It sucks that my family does not have a sweet tooth like me which is why I sought out small batch recipes and ultimately to creating this blog.  Not recommended to eat in one sitting or even for 1 person at all! I think 1 cookie per person is best due to all the sugar. If you got at least 5 more friends then by all means, bring this to your next potluck. Bigger recipe listed in my sources. Ingredients : Cookie Dough: 1 ¾ cups flour 1/2 cup butter 1/2 cup brown sugar ¼ cup white sugar 1 egg ½ tsp vanilla ½ tbsp corn starch ½ tsp baking soda ½ tsp salt Cinnamon Sugar: ½ tbsp white sugar ½ tsp cinnamon Cream cheese frosting: 4 tbsp butter 4 oz cream cheese 1 ½ cups powdered sugar ½ tsp vanilla Directions: 1. Preheat oven to 350...
