Mock Apple Fried Dough Made With Pillsbury Grands

These are so simple it is disgusting, but so amazingly delicious it is fattening...HEHEHEHE!

Mock Apple Fried Dough

Ingredients:

10 medium Macintosh apples pealed and sliced

2 cans (16 bisquits total) Pillsbury Grands Bisquits

1 cup brown sugar

2 heaping tbsps flour

1 tsp. ground allspice

Directions:

Peal and core the apples, then slice into pieces

Use a chopper and chop until a medium dice

Roll out each bisquit into a 6 inch circle (shown here by my sous chef Sam)

Mix all the ingredients together in a medium size bowl

Preheat the oven to 375 F, and place each circle on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet

Place a generous amount of mixture in the center of the circle, and spread out till almost to the edge

Hayden enjoyed teething on one of the extra apples

Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until edges are golden brown, allow to cool for 10 minutes, and then dust with confectioners sugar if you desire...I DESIRE! I also would suggest serving with a heaping scoop of vanilla ice cream!

Some new patterns in the shop!

So, having Hayden and him being so freaking adorable...If I do say so myself...has refired my design fire and I am crocheting like a crazy woman.  Here are the three newest patterns I have just stocked our shop with:

Adirondack Patterns

The Turtle Shell Hat (3-6 MOS)

The Blue V Neck Textured Pullover Vest (6-9 MOS)

And last but not least, the Fall Crochet Sweater Vest Pattern for 3-6 Month Old

The big boys have been thankful I am no longer having them model things as poor Hayden has been subjected to, and they are pictured here having a BLAST on Poppy's newest toy!

Pillsbury Grands Cheesy Hotdog Rollups

5 hotdogs of your choice

1 cup shredded cheese of your choice

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 375 F

Roll out each grand bisquit to about a 5-6 inch round

Score each hotdog as shown, and place on dough

Sprinkle with cheese

Roll starting at the hotdog side

Finish rolling all the way

Place on a parchment paper covered cookie sheet about 1 inch apart

Bake for 20 minutes

Cool for 5 minutes, and serve with your favorite sauce, we, excuse me, I, am partial to honey mustard
