¾ cup buttermilk
1 ½ cup sugar
½ cup butter
2 Tbsp corn syrup
1 tsp baking soda
Choose a pot that is twice the size as you think you will need, as this recipe foams and triples in volume while cooking.
Mix ingredients in a pot and bring to a boil. Reduce to medium heat and stir for 8 minutes. Do not look away, just diligently stir as this can boil over easily or harden if neglected.
Enjoy pouring it over pancakes, waffles, fruit, cake, pie, anything and everything or even eat it with a spoon.

1 cup milk
2 Tbsp butter
½ tsp salt
½ cup sugar
1 egg, beaten
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 Tbsp yeast
1 tsp sugar
¼ cup lukewarm water (110 degrees)
4 to 4½ cups flour
3 Tbsp melted butter
1 Tbsp orange zest
Sauce:
1 cup orange juice
¼ cup sugar
1 Tbsp cornstarch
Heat milk with butter, salt and ¼ cup of the sugar. Heat until butter melts, but do not boil. Let cool to lukewarm. Whisk in egg and vanilla.
Dissolve yeast in water with 1 tsp sugar. Combine 3½ cups of flour with yeast mixture and milk mixture, stirring to form dough. Turn dough onto lightly floured board. Spread a thin layer of butter inside the bowl.
Knead dough about 8 minutes until smooth and resistant, adding flour if necessary.
Return to bowl. Cover and place in warm place to rise until double in size, 1 to 2 hours.
Punch down dough. Roll out on lightly floured board to a large rectangle about ½” thick. Brush with melted butter. Mix ¼ cup sugar with orange zest and sprinkle on.
Roll dough like jelly roll. Use a sharp knife to cut thick slices to make the rolls. Place in a greased cake pan.
Mix together the sauce ingredients and pour over the rolls. Cover and let rise in warm place until nearly doubled in size.
Heat oven to 325° F. Bake rolls 45 minutes, until light golden brown.

½ cup sugar
½ cup maple syrup or corn syrup
½ cup butter
½ Tbsp vinegar
1 egg
1 tsp ground black pepper
½ tsp ground allspice
½ tsp ground ginger
½ tsp ground nutmeg
½ tsp baking soda
2 ½ cups flour
Cook the sugar, maple/corn syrup, butter and vinegar in a pot over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the butter is melted and it boils. Pour into a bowl and chill down to room temperature. Beat in all the other ingredients. It will make a smooth paste.
Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and freeze for 20 minutes or chill longer. It rolls out much easier when it is hard/cold.
Preheat oven to 350° F, and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
On a floured surface, roll the dough to about ¼” thick, then cut out shapes. Place them in the baking sheet with about 1” in between, because they do expand a little.
Bake for 7 minutes. (If they are thicker, or the pan is too crowded, they will require a few more minutes.) They should be slightly golden brown around the edges and look puffed up. Let them repose on the baking sheet until they are relaxed and more cool, then transfer cookies to a cooling rack. They should be thin and hard enough to snap, but slightly chewy when eating.
Makes about 36 cookies.

4 eggs
½ cup flour
½ cup milk or orange juice
2 Tbsp butter
Preheat oven to 425° F. Put the butter in a cake pan (8”×8” for a thick pancake, bigger for a thinner one) and put in the oven to melt.
Beat eggs until light. Add flour and milk and mix until smooth.
Pour the batter into the cake pan with the melted butter, and bake for 20-25 min. until brown.
Serve immediately. Top with what you prefer, such as maple syrup, powdered sugar, jelly/jam, warm applesauce with cinnamon, any kind of fruit topping, whipped cream, etc.

2 cups flour
½ cup oats
4 tsp baking powder
½ cup honey
¼ cup apple sauce
1 ¼ cup milk
¾ cup peanut butter
Preheat oven to 400° F. Mix the dry ingredients together, then add the wet ingredients, excluding the peanut butter, and stir until just mixed. Let the batter sit for a minute or so, so the baking powder can start working it, then stir in the peanut butter. Spoon into greased muffin tins and bake for 15-20 minutes. Makes 12.
The peanut flavor is not overpowering, nor is it grossly sweet. The texture is light and fluffy, and perfectly moist. They kept the moisture for a number of days after baking them (store in an airtight container).
Variations:
Add 2 Tbsp cocoa powder.
Use any kind of nut butter you want.
Use flavored apple sauce.
Use a fruit butter instead of applesauce.

+ Pear & Rosemary
2 cups flour
½ tsp salt
¼ cup butter
¾ cup apple, grated or finely chopped
3 Tbsp honey
1 cup sour cream
1 egg
1 tsp baking powder
cinnamon and sugar
Preheat oven to 400° F.
Stir together flour, salt, and baking powder. Cut in butter until crumbly and there's no more dry powder. Stir in apple, honey, sour cream and egg until combined.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, or grease the sheet. Use a dough scoop to make round, small scones. Gently press down the tops of each scone to make them flat. Sprinkle the tops with cinnamon sugar.
Bake in preheated oven for 12 to 14 minutes until the bottoms of the scones are light brown.
Remove from oven, cool slightly on the sheet pan and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Variation:
Use pears instead of apples, add ¼ tsp dried rosemary to dough, and exclude the cinnamon sugar.

2 cups warm herbal tea
¼ cup honey
2 Tbsp yeast
4 cups white wheat flour
1 tsp salt
1-2 Tbsp edible flowers, dried or fresh
Dissolve the honey in the tea and sprinkle the yeast in. When the yeast is foamy, add it to 2 cups flour. Let rise until about doubled.
Add the rest of the flour, the salt, and the flowers. Knead for about 10 minutes, with more flour as necessary.
Coat the bowl and dough with a thin layer of oil and let rise, covered, in a warm place until about doubled again, but not for too long.
Form into a loaf. Spray the inside of your oven or put in a pan of water.
Put loaf in oven while it's preheating to 350° F, and bake for about 1 hour.
Some flowers, like lavender, are available as a culinary herb. Fresh edible flowers can sometimes be found at grocery stores in the refrigerated section with the fresh herbs. Also look for herbal teas that are made with flowers. Small, aromatic seeds such as fennel seeds are a good addition, or seeds from flowers like poppy seeds.
You can also harvest flowers and blossoms from your garden. Not all of them are sweet. I like chive flowers and squash flowers. Be sure you look up your flowers online to see if they are edible.

Knead the dough gently and form into a smooth loaf. Place in a bread pan. Coat the top of the dough with oil and cover loosely with plastic wrap. Let rise for 30-40 minutes. Preheat oven to 350° F. Bake for 1 hour.
