Home Tour Tuesday and Kitchen Recipe Swap... Sponsored by:


First a HUGE shout out to

Flip Flops and Pearls for my trash bags

Yes, I live near FF&P and she

was out and about {No kidding}

yesterday during ALL the rain

and I begged her with

BEIGNETS

to pick up some trash bags for me

and LITERALLY throw them at my

front door so she wouldn't

even get wet...

I smell beignets in the FUTURE!!


One of my MOST favorite things...

See, I do still have some

Thanksgiving out!!




As you enter my kitchen... notice the

MacKenzie Childs loaf pan in the back right of the pic

I had to make homemade bread for a luncheon

the JA's are sponsoring this am at the

hospital.


More MacKenzie Childs....




And more....




Now for the recipe which i am TOTALY copying from my friend at

Jumpin' In...

{ I made this last week and it is DELICIOUS!!!}


Dutch Apple Cake
3 eggs

3 cups plain flour

1 tsp. soda

1 tsp. salt

2 cups sugar

1 1/4 cups canola oil

2 Tbsp. water

2 tsp. vanilla

3 cups chopped Golden Apples

1 cup pecans, chopped

12 oz. Butterscotch morsels


Beat 3 eggs in small bowl and set aside
Sift flour, salt, soda and set aside
In a large mixing bowl combine sugar, oil, water and vanilla
Add flour mixture and blend low speed
Add eggs and mix well on higher speed
Remove from mixer and fold in apples and nuts by hand (batter will be thick)
Spoon into a 9 x 13" pan; sprinkle top with butterscotch morsels then using back of spatula gently pat the morsels down into the batter
Bake on 325 degrees for 65 minutes {my cake was not done in the center at this time--definately jiggle it for doneness and also test the center area then add 10 minutes and check again}
