Oh, I missed that!  I use 1% milk, since it's what's in the house. I did use real butter, though. I'm thinking about making another one with apples, since we have some in the house. If I do, I'll let everyone know how that turned out.

Yum.. Thank you for the lovely recipes, they sound delicious.
Here's a fried pickle recipe that's great!
Ingredients:
3/4 to 1 cup of beer
2 eggs
1 -2 cups of flour
Cholesterol free oil
Directions:
Pour oil in a large skillet until the oil is about 1-2 inches up the side of the pan. Heat oil to 350 degrees.
Strain pickles in a small colander.
In a mixing bowl, whisk the yolks and 3/4 cup of the beer. Season the mixture with salt and pepper. Whisk in enough flour to form a batter. If the batter is too thick add the remaining beer to thin the batter.
Dip pickles one at a time using tongs into the batter and then place in the heated oil
Fry pickles for about 2 minutes flipping the pickle after about 1 minute
Place pickles on a plate lined with paper towel and then season with salt. Serve with Ranch Dressing.

The french toast looks a lot like bread pudding when it's done but tastes like, well, french toast. It's an easy and quick breakfast or snack. It's one of my favorites.
Here's a great one:
Lemon Loaf
1˝ cups flour
˝ teaspoon baking powder
˝ teaspoon baking soda
˝ teaspoon salt
3 eggs, room temp
1 cup sugar
2 tablespoons butter, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 teaspoon lemon extract
⅓ cup lemon juice
˝ cup oil
zest of one lemon
Glaze:
1 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons whole milk
˝ teaspoon lemon extract
Preheat oven to 350. Grease and flour a 9 × 5 loaf pan. In a large bowl, combine flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
In a medium bowl, combine eggs, sugar, butter, vanilla extract, lemon extract and lemon juice with a mixer until blended.
Pour wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and blend until smooth. Add oil and lemon zest and mix well. Pour into loaf pan and bake for 45 minutes until toothpick comes out clean. (It took an hour in my oven). Remove from oven and pour glaze over it, then cool in pan on a rack. Glaze – whisk to combine
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Edit~ Had to share since I was browsing my recipes, sounded good but I don't have anything to make so here's for those of you who can. X
Salted Caramel Mug Cake
What you’ll need: {makes 1 mug cake}
4 tablespoons all purpose flour
4 tablespoons sugar
3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 egg – beaten
3 tablespoons skim milk
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 salted caramels
What to do:
1. Into a small bowl add: flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder, salt, egg, milk, and vegetable oil. Mix to combine.
2. Pour mixture into a regular sized coffee mug. Drop caramels into center of mixture one at a time.
3. Microwave on high for one minute and 30 seconds. If needed {if cake batter is still gooey}, microwave on high for up to an additional 30 seconds.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And just if you'd like to make your own caramel sauce..
Caramel Sauce:
1 cup packed brown suger (Light brown)
1/2 cup heavy cream
4 tablespoons butter
Pinch of sea salt
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
Melt butter in pot, mix in brown sugar, cream and salt.
Cook over medium-low heat and whisk gently
for about 7 minutes or longer if you doubled.
Remove pot from heat, add vanilla and return to
cook for another minute or so to thicken up a bit.
Take it off the stove and pour into a jar then store in the fridge.
(Yields 1-1/2 cups so you might want to make a double batch)!

Took cook pizza when you oven kickes the bed.
grab an iron skillet if you have one. if not, break your pizza down into quarters.
Mine happened to be thawed out for about 20 minutes because I didn't realize my overn kicked it. so with a thawed pizza it wont take as long.
Get your skillet and make sure to have a cover. If no cover is available, use a pizza pan as a top.
Set burner to a low heat, so low that it is just barley coming out, a bit more flame could probably be used as well. (I have a gas oven)
Place your pizza in the skillet and cover. walk away and find something to do for a bit. Do check on the pizza every once in a while. )But do not let the heat escape too often or the crust will take longer to cook and the bottom will be a bit blackened.)
When you crust is nice and firm is when you want to turn the stove off and let the left over heat cook it the rest of the way.
When done right the bottom will be golden colored. your crust will not be as golden as if it were in the oven.

Thanks, I got tired of the face that this is the second time the oven has done this to us. In like a weeks worth of time I think. I happened to buy pizza too and didn't want it to go to waist, so I made sure it got cooked.

Hey there.  I made the blueberry crumble cake with apples instead of blueberries, and it turned out pretty good. Use 2-3 medium apples, pared, cored, and chopped up into small pieces. I think you should add about a Tablespoon of cinnamon to the batter, as well. (I didn't this time, but I think it could have used it.) I did add a little nutmeg to the topping, and that was pretty good.
I think I'm going to try it with peaches next, since it's that time of year.

Here's one that's great:
French Toast Casserole
1 c. brown sugar, packed
1/2 c. butter
2 c. corn syrup
1 loaf French bread, sliced
5 eggs, beaten
1 1/2 c. milk
1 t. vanilla extract
Garnish: powdered sugar, maple syrup
(We added 1 1/2 cups chopped pecans to our recipe)
Melt together brown sugar, butter and corn syrup in a saucepan over low heat; pour into a greased 13" x 9" baking pan. Arrange bread slices over mixture and set aside. Whisk together eggs, milk and vanilla; pour over bread, coating all slices. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Uncover and bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes, or until lightly golden. Sprinkle with powered sugar; serve with warm syrup. Makes 6-8 servings

It really is, I made a small one via microwave. I let it set in the fridge for about thirty minutes. And made it like the mug french toast~
Here's one I really like:
Egg Nog Mug Cake
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
4 tablespoons sugar
1 egg
3 tablespoons eggnog
3 tablespoons oil
Whipped cream
Nutmeg
1. Stir the flour and sugar together in a mug. Add the egg and mix well. Then stir in the eggnog and oil and mix everything well with a fork.
2. Microwave the mug for 2 minutes. Top with whipped cream and a sprinkle of nutmeg and serve!
