Banana Fosters Pancakes

Bananas Foster Pancakes

Andy loves this! 

Pancakes

Ingredients:

 

2 cups baking mix

2 eggs

1 cup milk

2 tablespoons powdered sugar

2 teaspoons of baking powder

1 tablespoon of vanilla


 

Directions:

Mix all ingredients until blended.  Pour about a ¼ cup onto hot greased pan.  Cook until edges are golden and pancake mix is bubbling.  Turn and cook until golden brown.

 

Banana Fosters

Ingredients:

 

1 stick butter

¾ cup brown sugar

½ teaspoon cinnamon

¼ cup banana liqueur

6 bananas cut in half lengthwise, then halved

¼ cup dark rum


 

Directions:
Combine the butter, sugar, and cinnamon in a skillet. Place the pan over low heat on top of the stove, and cook, stirring, until the sugar dissolves. Stir in the banana liqueur, and then place the bananas in the pan. When the banana sections soften and begin to brown, carefully add the rum. Continue to cook the sauce until the rum is hot, and then tip the pan slightly to ignite the rum (if using a gas stove).

When the flame goes down, lift the bananas out of the pan and place four pieces over each pancake. Generously spoon the warm sauce over the top of the pancakes. 

 

In the Kitchen

Last fall I fell in love with Star Bucks pumpkin bread.  I never knew that I loved pumpkin so much.  I started experimenting in the kitchen and came up with my own recipe for pumpkin bread.  I made so much pumpkin bread, pumpkin cheese cake, ooey gooey pumpkin cake and muffins that it was ridiculous.  Now that fall is here again I wanted to try some new pumpkin desserts.  Sister and I have been on a pound cake kick for a while now and I thought about a pumpkin pound cake.   unfortunately, I wasn’t impressed with the recipe I came up with.  It wasn’t bad but it wasn’t great either.  I will not be posting that recipe. If you should have a good recipe for a pumpkin pound cake or any other pumpkin dessert please share it with us. 

I also made a vegetable Quiche that was out of this world.  It was fluffy,cheesy and so yummy.  It was very easy and I had everything I needed in the fridge.  You can use all different kinds and combinations of vegetables. I had mushrooms, asparagus, spinach and onions in my fridge but you could use  artichokes, tomatoes, squash, etc. I hope you will enjoy it as much as Andy and I did.  I served mine with toast and mayhaw jelly.
