Cinnamon Pull Apart

In this house, we love anything that includes cinnamon, sugar and bread. So when I saw this pin I knew that a Cinnamon Pull Apart needed to be put at the top of the “to bake” list.

The original pin from Deanna uses an amazing looking homemade dough recipe. As you may have realized already ~ I like to take shortcuts in my cooking adventures. So I grabbed a container of pizza dough and a mixture of cinnamon and sugar.

I rolled our the dough and coated it liberally with cinnamon and sugar.

Then I rolled it all up…

cut it into two inch sections and placed the sections in a medium, greased baking dish.

Then I topped the whole thing with more cinnamon and sugar goodness.

After baking in the oven for 20 minutes at 350 they turned out crispy and golden.

This was a quick, fun take on the cinnamon pull apart recipe. Drizzle with icing sugar and you have the perfect breakfast/dessert/snack?!

Next time I would use homemade dough or maybe biscuit dough? The pizza dough was a bit blah. So I give this recipe three spoons out of five.

Apple Turnover

This recipe?

Amazing!

When I spotted this pin I don’t even think that I went to the original post {until now and found that it linked to a site where I can buy handbags and not apple turnovers}. On my next shopping trip I picked up a container of Pilsbury crescent rolls and I was set.

I simply shaped the rolls into rectangles, placed two tablespoons of applesauce in the center, folded up the edges, rolled them in a cinnamon sugar mixture and baked according to the package directions.

These were

good!

My husband loves apple turnovers so these have been added to the “must make again list”.

This recipe gets FIVE SPOONS!

Zucchini Bites

Zucchini has been in abundance this year so I have been on the lookout for fabulous zucchini recipes.

I found this pin for Zucchini Bites and thought that I would give it a try.

The recipe can be found here from Curious Country Cook. Just looking at this pin I knew that it had to contain zucchini, cheese, egg and breadcrumbs. You could experiment with all sorts of combinations yourself… the possibilities are endless!

I used one cup of shredded zucchini, one egg, two tbsp breadcrumbs, one quarter cup of grated cheddar cheese and one tbsp of Parmesan cheese.

I mixed it all up and put it into mini muffin cups as recommended.

Bake for about 20 minutes at 350°.

They were…. interesting. Nothing like tater tots {which the writer and pinners suggested}. They were more like mini zucchini quiches. And while I thought that they tasted good and were a pretty healthy appetizer alternative, the family as a whole turned up their noses.

So this recipes gets two spoons.
