Honey Nut Scones

One of this weeks picks for Tuesdays with Dorie was Honey Nut Scones and it was chosen by Jeannette of Whimsical Cupcake.  Honey, nuts, (I used pecans) and whole wheat flour give these scones a slightly different taste and texture.  They are best served warm, with lots of butter and jam.  Happy Baking.

GingerJazzed Brownies

This weeks recipe for Tuesdays With Dorie is Ginger Jazzed Brownies and it was chosen by Hindy of Bubie’s Little Baker.  Brownies are always a favorite and here at Tuesdays with Dorie we have made brownies just about every way imaginable. These brownies are very fudgey and and have a slight ginger flavor.  I added some ginger whipped cream and a few chocolate chips.  These are nice for a change to regular brownies.  Thanks to Hindy for hosting this week.

Basic Biscuits

               Biscuits, hot out of the oven, dripping with butter.  It's a great way to start the day.

                                  I love opening the oven door to see lightly browned biscuits.

I served these with sausage gravy.  Yummy.  It doesn't look pretty but, boy does it taste wonderful.  Thanks to Jennifer of Cooking for Comfort for hosting this week.

Flip Over Plum Cake

Flip Over Plum Cake is this weeks selection for Tuesdays With Dorie  You really can't believe how easy this is.  It mixes up in record time but, it tastes wonderful.  I have made this for many years but simply called it a cobbler. I usually make it with blackberries or peaches.  Making it with the plums was a delightful change.  I loved it. Add a scoope of vanilla ice cream and it doesn't get it any better .Thanks to Becky of Project Domestication for hosting this week.

Classic Brownies

Brownies are amazing.  They are simply chocolate, butter, eggs, and a little flour. Here at Tuesdays With Dorie we have made brownies many ways, but these may be the easiest ones that we have baked. Our brownies today are made special by adding nuts (I used pecans) and espresso powder.  It really doesn't get any better. Thanks to Anne of Anne Strawberry for hosting this week.  Please go over and check out all the great brownies that have been made this week.

 My husband just couldn't resist taking a picture of his brownie with ice cream and chocolate sauce.  Yummy.

Cornmeal and Fruit Loaf

Cornmeal and dried apples are staples in the southern cooks pantry but I don't believe that before this week I had ever thought of combining them.  I trust Dorie but I was very skeptical of how this would turn out. It turned out to be quite nice.  Different but nice.  The cornmeal made it slightly crumbly and crunchy and the apples made it moist. I enjoyed it as an afternoon snack.  I wish that I had some apple butter to spread on but it was fine plain.  Oh, I almost forgot to tell you how wonderful it smells baking. Thanks to Caitlin of Engineer Baker for picking this recipe.

Tropical Crumble

Tropical Crumble might be described as summer on a plate.  Mango, banana, brown sugar, pecans, and butter ( maybe a bit to much) go together to make this weeks dish for Tuesdays with Dorie.  It's different but really quite tasty. My family enjoyed it.  Thanks to Gaye of Laws of the Kitchen for hosting this week.
