These Apple Crumble Muffins are a delightful combination of soft, moist muffins, infused with juicy apple pieces topped with a crunchy, buttery crumble. These treats begin with a tender muffin base, flavored with cinnamon and packed with juicy apple chunks. The muffins are made even more irresistible with the addition of a golden-brown crumble topping made from flour, sugar, butter, and a touch of cinnamon, adding a crisp texture that contrasts beautifully with the soft interior.

Perfect for breakfast, a snack, or dessert, these muffins capture the essence of autumn in every bite. The apples bring natural sweetness and moisture, while the crumble topping offers a satisfying crunch. They can be made with a variety of apples, from tart Granny Smith to sweet Gala, depending on your flavor preference. Serve them warm, fresh out of the oven, or store them for later enjoyment. Pair them with a hot cup of coffee or tea for a cozy treat.

Easy to make and loved by the whole family, these Apple Crumble Muffins are a comforting treat perfect for any occasion.

How to make apple crumble muffins

Begin by preheating the oven to 375°F (190°C) and lining a 12-cavity muffin pan with paper liners. Peel, core, and chop the apples into small pieces, tossing them with a tablespoon of flour in a medium bowl. This little trick will help keep the apples from sinking to the bottom of the muffins. Set aside.

In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. In a large bowl, mix eggs with sugar and vanilla extract. For the best results, make sure the eggs are at room temperature. Start mixing slowly at first, then increase speed until the mixture becomes creamy and fluffy. Gradually, begin to incorporate the oil, pouring it in a slow, steady stream while you continue to mix.

Next, slowly alternate adding the dry ingredients and buttermilk into the wet mixture, a little at a time. Be careful not to overmix, as we want to keep the batter light and airy. Once everything is just combined, go ahead and add the apple pieces. Using a spatula, gently fold them into the batter. Take your time to ensure the apple pieces are evenly distributed throughout, so every bite is packed with juicy apples.

Divide the batter evenly into the muffin cups, filling them just below the top.

How to make the crumb topping

For the crumb topping, combine sugar, flour, cinnamon, and melted butter in a medium bowl, until the mixture forms a nice, crumbly texture.

Sprinkle the crumbs on top of each muffin, ensuring they’re all well-covered for that perfect crunchy finish on every bite.

Bake for about 25 minutes, or until golden and a toothpick comes out clean. Once done, let them cool slightly, just enough so they’re warm but not too hot.

Now it’s time to enjoy these delicious apple crumble muffins! Give them a try, I’m sure you’ll fall in love with them just like we did. If you do, don’t forget to tag me in your Instagram stories or posts. Enjoy!

Blueberry Oat Crumble Bars

Ella - Home Cooking Adventure — Fri, 26 Jul 2024 04:23:09 +0000

These Blueberry Oat Crumble Bars are a delightful treat perfect for breakfast, a snack, or dessert. These bars feature a luscious blueberry filling sandwiched between layers of crumbly, buttery oat mixture.

The base and topping are made from a blend of rolled oats, flour, sugar, and butter, creating a rich and crispy crust that pairs perfectly with the juicy fruit center. The blueberry filling enhanced with lemon juice is bursting with flavor and balances perfectly the sweetness.

Easy to prepare, these bars come together in a few simple steps. First, press the oat mixture into a baking dish to form the crust, followed by a generous layer of blueberry filling. Crumble the remaining oat mixture on top before baking to golden perfection.

These Blueberry Oat Crumble Bars are not only delicious but also nutritious, providing a good source of fiber and antioxidants from the oats and blueberries. They are perfect for any time of day and are sure to satisfy both kids and adults alike.

How to make Blueberry Oat Crumble Bars

Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (180°C). Slightly grease a 9×13 inch (23×33 cm) pan and line it with parchment paper, ensuring that the edges extend beyond the sides of the pan to make it easier to lift the bars out.

In a bowl, combine the flour, oats, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the butter and vanilla extract, stirring until the mixture combines well and crumbly. Press ⅔ of this crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan to form the crust.

Next, place the blueberries into a separate bowl. Add the sugar, lemon juice, and cornstarch, then toss to coat the blueberries evenly. Spread the blueberry mixture over the crust in the pan.

Sprinkle the reserved ⅓ of the crumb mixture over the top of the blueberries.

Bake in the preheated oven for 40-50 minutes, or until the top is lightly browned.

Allow the bars to cool completely in the pan before cutting them into squares. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature or refrigerate for up to 4 days.

Caramel Panna Cotta

Ella - Home Cooking Adventure — Fri, 19 Jul 2024 10:04:34 +0000

This Caramel Panna Cotta is a sophisticated and delicate Italian dessert that combines the creamy elegance of panna cotta with the rich, deep flavor of caramel. It is a delectable finish to any meal, whether it’s a casual dinner or a special occasion.

This eggless and gluten-free treat begins with a simple caramel made from sugar and water, which is carefully cooked until it reaches a golden amber hue. The caramel coats the bottom and sides of the ramekins, creating a beautiful, glossy layer that will crown the dessert when inverted.

The vanilla panna cotta mixture is poured over the set caramel in the ramekins. After chilling for several hours, the panna cotta firms up to a perfectly silky texture.

When ready to serve, invert the ramekins onto plates, revealing the delightful caramel layer now sitting atop the panna cotta. This dessert is not only delicious but also looks beautiful, especially when garnished with fresh berries and sprigs of rosemary or mint. The freshness of the berries and herbs adds a vibrant contrast to the rich, creamy caramel panna cotta.

How to make Caramel Panna Cotta

Begin by preparing the caramel. Place the sugar and water in a saucepan over medium-high heat, and cook without stirring until the sugar dissolves and takes on a caramel color. Immediately divide the caramel among 4 ramekins, each with a capacity of 4-5 oz (120-150ml). Rotate the ramekins to coat the bottoms and sides with the caramel, then set them aside.

Next, prepare the panna cotta. Dissolve the gelatin in 2 tablespoons of cold water and let it swell for 5 to 10 minutes. In a medium saucepan, bring the cream, milk, sugar, salt, and vanilla to a simmer over medium-low heat, ensuring it does not boil. Once the sugar has dissolved, remove the mixture from the heat and let it cool for 5 minutes before adding the bloomed gelatin. Stir until the gelatin has completely dissolved.

Evenly divide the panna cotta mixture into the caramel-coated ramekins. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the panna cotta to set.

When ready to serve, dip each ramekin into a bowl of hot water for about 30 seconds to loosen the caramel. Run a sharp knife around the edges of the panna cotta, then invert each ramekin onto a plate. Garnish with fresh berries and sprigs of fresh rosemary or mint.

First, you need to bake e a dense, brownie layer that serves as the cake’s base. You can also consider making an Oreo crust for a no-bake dessert.

Once the brownie cools, spread a layer of smooth homemade chocolate ice cream over it. After freezing the chocolate layer until slightly firm, add a refreshing layer of homemade strawberry ice cream, followed by another round of freezing. The final layer, a creamy homemade vanilla ice cream, tops the cake, creating a visually stunning dessert.

The brownie’s deep chocolate flavor and texture perfectly balance the lightness of the ice cream layers, making each bite a delightful contrast of textures and tastes. Garnishing the cake with fresh strawberries and chocolate candies adds an extra touch of indulgence.

Chocolate Dutch Baby Pancake

Ella - Home Cooking Adventure — Thu, 13 Jun 2024 16:14:53 +0000

This Chocolate Dutch Baby Pancake is a delightful chocolatey treat, elegant and indulgent, perfect for breakfast or dessert. This baked pancake is known for its dramatic rise and fluffy texture, similar to a popover or Yorkshire pudding.

To make this pancake, pour the batter into a hot, buttered cast-iron skillet and bake it in the oven. Watch as it puffs up and forms a crisp edge with a tender, custardy center.

The addition of high-quality cocoa powder transforms a classic Dutch baby into a chocolate lover’s dream. It adds depth and a rich, chocolatey flavor. We like to serve it with a dusting of powdered sugar and fresh berries on top. You can add chocolate syrup or different toppings, making it as versatile as it is delicious.

You can serve this Chocolate Dutch Baby Pancake straight from the oven, for a warm and comforting experience. Its impressive appearance and decadent taste make it perfect for special occasions or simply for a weekend brunch.

How to make Chocolate Dutch Baby Pancake

Begin by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C). Place a 9-10 inch (23-25 cm) cast iron skillet into the oven for at least 8 minutes to heat.

In a bowl, whisk the eggs with sugar, vanilla extract, and salt. Add the flour and cocoa powder, stirring until well combined. Gradually add the milk and stir to combine.

Once the skillet is hot, add the butter and return it to the oven for 1 minute, or until the butter completely melts.

Remove the skillet from the oven and pour the batter into the hot skillet. Return the skillet to the oven and bake for 15-17 minutes. The Dutch baby will puff up around the edges and develop a crisp edge. It will deflate slightly after removing it from the oven.

Top the Dutch baby with quartered strawberries and cherries, and dust with powdered sugar. Cut into wedges and serve immediately.

Blueberry Cream Cheese Buns

Ella - Home Cooking Adventure — Thu, 30 May 2024 11:55:38 +0000

These Blueberry Cream Cheese Buns are a delightful treat that combines soft, fluffy dough with sweet blueberries and creamy cheese filling. Inside each bun, you’ll find a rich filling with a smooth cream cheese topped with juicy blueberries. The blueberries add a burst of color, flavor and sweetness with a slight tang.

These Cream Cheese Buns are beloved worldwide and are known under various names. One of the most well-known names for these delightful buns is Vatrushka. Vatrushka is enjoyed throughout Russia and other Eastern European countries. Today, you can find variations of these Cream Cheese Buns/Vatrushka in bakeries and cafes across the globe, each offering its unique twist on this classic delight.

Making these buns is easy and fun. First, you shape the dough into buns and let them rise until they are light and airy. Then you need to create a well in the center of each and divide the cream cheese filling evenly. Then, you sprinkle the blueberries over the top. Finally, you bake them until they are golden.

The result is a warm, fragrant bun with a deliciously sweet and creamy center. These Blueberry Cream Cheese Buns are perfect for breakfast, a snack, or even dessert. They pair wonderfully with a cup of coffee or tea, making them a great choice for a cozy morning or a special afternoon treat.

How to make the blueberry cream cheese buns

To create a batch of delightful cream cheese and blueberry buns, start by preparing the dough. In a large bowl, combine yeast with 1 teaspoon of sugar and 1/4 cup of lukewarm milk. Let this mixture rest for 5 minutes to activate the yeast.

Next, add the remaining ingredients to the bowl: flour, sugar, salt, the rest of the milk, an egg, vanilla extract, and softened butter. Knead the mixture for about 5 to 7 minutes until the dough is smooth and slightly pulls away from the sides of the bowl. Transfer the dough to an oiled bowl, cover it with plastic wrap, and let it rest in a warm space for about 1 hour until it has doubled in size.

Once the dough has risen, divide it into 12 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a bun and place them on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Cover the buns with a kitchen towel and let them rest for another 15 to 20 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C).

Prepare the cream cheese filling, by whisking together cream cheese, powdered sugar, an egg, and vanilla extract in a medium bowl until smooth. Transfer this mixture to a piping bag fitted with a plain tip.

How to shape the final buns

To shape the buns, press each one with a glass dipped in flour to create a well in the center. Fill the wells with the cream cheese mixture and top each bun with fresh blueberries. Brush the edges of the buns with beaten egg.

Bake the buns in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes or until they are nicely golden. Once baked, transfer the buns to a wire rack to cool slightly. For the finishing touch, dust the buns with powdered sugar before serving.

Hope you will try these these delicious blueberry cream cheese buns and enjoy them either for breakfast or as a sweet treat. If you do, don’t forget to tag me in your Instagram stories or posts.

How to make the buns in advance

By preparing the dough in advance and refrigerating it, you can enjoy freshly baked cream cheese buns with minimal effort on the day you plan to serve them.

To make these buns in advance you will need to prepare the dough and let it rise until doubles in size. After shaping the buns and placing them on the baking tray, cover them loosely with plastic wrap. Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator and let the dough rise slowly overnight. The cold temperature will slow the yeast activity, allowing the dough to develop more flavor.

When you’re ready to bake, remove the buns from the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before filling them.

Easy Strawberry Pound Cake

Ella - Home Cooking Adventure — Wed, 15 May 2024 14:37:29 +0000

This easy Strawberry Pound Cake is a delightful and moist dessert that perfectly blends the rich, buttery traditional pound cake with the fresh, vibrant flavor of ripe strawberries. This cake has a dense yet tender crumb, which is beautifully complemented by the juicy bursts of strawberries throughout.

It’s a versatile treat that can be enjoyed on its own, dusted with powdered sugar, or paired with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Ideal for spring and summer gatherings, this strawberry pound cake offers a sweet, comforting flavor that’s refreshing and simply irresistible.

Whether served at a picnic, a family gathering, or as an everyday trear, this cake is sure to please with its simple yet irresistible combination of flavors.

How to make strawberry pound cake

Begin with preheating the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease and line a 9×5 inch (23×13 cm) loaf pan with parchment paper to ensure easy removal of the bread after baking.

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and baking powder. Set this dry mixture aside.

In another large bowl, combine the sugar, butter, and vegetable oil. Mix until the mixture becomes creamy. Incorporate the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. With the mixer on low speed, gradually add the flour mixture alternating with buttermilk, until everything is well incorporated

In a medium bowl, add the strawberry cut in smaller pieces and a tablespoon of flour. Toss to coat the strawberries evenly with flour, which helps to prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the loaf during baking.

Gently fold the coated strawberries into the cake batter until they are evenly distributed.

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.

Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean. Allow the bread to cool slightly in the pan before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Before serving, dust the top of the bread with powdered sugar. Slice and enjoy this delicious, fruity bread with your favorite cup of tea or coffee!
