Course: Bread
Cuisine: American
Keyword: Outback Steakhouse Bushman Bread
Servings: 6
Calories: 365 kcal
Ingredients
Dough
  • 1 1/2 cups warm water
  • 2 tablespoons butter softened
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 2 cups bread flour
  • 1 2/3 cups wheat flour
  • 1 tablespoon cocoa
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons instant coffee
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons yeast
Coloring
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 75 drops red food coloring
  • 45 drops blue food coloring
  • 30 drops yellow food coloring
  • cornmeal for dusting
Instructions
  1. Combine the flours, cocoa, sugar, coffee and salt in a large bowl. Make a depression or"well" in the middle of the dry mixture. Pour the warm water into this"well," then add the butter, honey and yeast.
  2. Combine the food coloring drops with ¼ cup of water and add that to the"well".
  3. Slowly mix the ingredients with a spoon, drawing the dry ingredients into the wet.
  4. When you can handle the dough, begin to combine it by hand, kneading the dough thoroughly for at least ten minutes, until it is very smooth and has a consistent color.
  5. Set the dough into a covered bowl in a warm place for an hour, to allow it to rise.
  6. When the dough has risen to about double in size, punch it down and divide it into 8 even portions.
  7. Form the portions into tubular shaped loaves about 8" long and 2" wide.
  8. Sprinkle the entire surface of the loaves with cornmeal and place them on a cookie sheet, or two.
  9. Cover the cookie sheet (s) with plastic wrap and let the dough rise once more for another hour in a warm location.
  10. Preheat the oven to 350° degrees F.
  11. Uncover the dough and bake it for 20-24 minutes in the hot oven. Loaves should begin to darken slightly on top when done.
  12. Serve warm with a sharp bread knife and butter on the side.
  13. If you want whipped butter, as you get at the restaurant, just use an electric mixer on high speed to whip some butter until it's fluffy.

Easy Pizza Muffins – Oh So Good!

These Easy Pizza Muffins are the quickest and easiest pizza to make and oh so good. Even the kids can make them.

 

My favorite snack as a kid and one of my favorite snacks today!

They also make a nice lunch with a side salad.

The toppings are a matter of choice. Pepperoni is more traditional but the ham and pineapple are nice. For a crisper crust toast the English muffins before topping.

A keeper for sure!

Course: Main Course
Cuisine: American
Keyword: Buttermilk-Honey Fried Chicken Fingers
Servings: 6
Calories: 325 kcal
Ingredients
  • 4 teaspoons honey
  • salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
  • flavoring of choice (see below)
  • 1 1/3 cups buttermilk
  • 2 1/2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breast halves each cut crosswise into 8 to 9 strips (about 6 large)
  • 1 quart canola oil
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
Classic Flavoring
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
Maryland-Style Flavoring
  • 1 tablespoon Old Bay Seasoning
Curry Flavoring
  • 1 tablespoon curry powder
Cumin Flavoring
  • 2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 2 teaspoons paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
  1. In a large bowl or shallow baking dish, mix the honey, 1 teaspoon salt, pepper, and flavoring of choice into the buttermilk. Add the chicken and turn to coat.
  2. Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Heat the oil in a large (12-inch) skillet over high heat until it reaches 375 degrees.
  3. Meanwhile, mix the flour and 1 tablespoon salt in a doubled paper bag (I've also used a large Ziploc bag). Drop about 8 chicken strips into the flour, close the bag, and shake to coat the chicken. Place the chicken pieces on a wire rack set over a baking sheet (or newspaper for easy cleanup). Repeat with the remaining chicken.
  4. Working in 4 batches, drop the chicken pieces into the hot oil and fry until golden brown, turning if necessary to ensure even browning, about 3 minutes.

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 15 ounce can tomato sauce or 1 (15 ounce) can low-sodium tomato sauce
  • 1/2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  2. Remove from heat & stir in the sour cream.
  3. Preheat the oven to 375°F Lightly spray an 8x8 baking dish. Pull the crescent rolls apart but leave them in rectangle shape. (There should be 4 rectangles).
  4. Lay 2 of the rectangles in the bottom of the pan, side by side. Gently spread out to fit the bottom of the pan.
  5. Cover the crescent rolls with 4 slices of provolone cheese. (The cheese on the bottom helps keep the crescent rolls from becoming soggy from the sauce).
  6. Next add the beef mixture & then 4 more slices of cheese. Take the remaining 2 rectangles on top of the last layer of cheese.
  7. Lightly brush the melted butter over the crescent rolls & sprinkle the remaining parmesan cheese on top.
