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.

2 tsp yeast
2 tsp sugar, brown sugar, honey, molasses, or maple syrup
1 cup warm water
1 cup warm milk or nut milk
4 Tbsp butter
1 ½ cups rolled oats
¾ cup chopped nuts (optional)
3 tsp salt
3 cups flour
In a large bowl, combine yeast, sugar, and warm water.
When the yeast becomes foamy, stir in the warm milk and butter. Stir in the oats, then the nuts if using, then the salt. Stir in the flour one cup at a time.
Knead the dough, using more flour as necessary, until the dough is relatively smooth, not sticky, and resistant. Coat the dough with oil, place in a large oiled bowl, and cover it with plastic wrap. Let rise in a warm place for 30-40 minutes.
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.

Old favorite from an Amish cooking book.

1 ham hock
1.5 cups dried apples (or chopped fresh apples if you don't have the former)
2 Tbsp brown sugar
Place ham hock in heavy saucepan. Cover with 2 quarts water and boil 2 hours. Add apples and brown sugar. Add an additional 1.5 quarts water and cook until apples are soft. Add knepp.
Knepp:
2 cups flour
3 tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
1 egg, beaten
2 Tbsp melted butter
1/3-½ cup milk
Mix flour, baking powder, and salt. Add beaten egg, butter, and milk. Use only enough milk to make a sticky dough that will drop easily off a spoon. Drop by spoonfuls into boiling ham and apple mixture. Cover tightly and boil for 15 minutes.
