Two weeks ago, Margaret requested a recipe for a fresh apple cake. We
published three receips last week, and here's another.
>From Sue and Walt N:
Not exactly as requested but guaranteed delicious.
Chopped Apple Cake
2 sticks margarine
2 cups sugar (or a little less - like 1 1/2 cups - especially
if apples are sweet)
2 eggs
2 cups flour
2 tsp each baking soda, cinnamon and vanilla 4 tsp lemon juice (which you can
put on the apples as you cut
them up to keep them from discoloring)
4 cups finely chopped, peeled eating apples (about 6 medium)
Combine first 3 ingredients and beat one minute. Mix dry ingredients and add to
creamed mixture about one third at a time. Batter will be very stiff. Add
remaining ingredients and mix well. Pour into greased and floured 13 x 9 x 2
pan and bake at 350 for one hour. Stays fresh; can be frozen.
Here's a recipe from one of our regular contributors:
Loaded Mashed Potato Cakes
Mashed Potatoes 2 1/2 cups
1 1/2 cups shredded mild cheddar cheese
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
3 strips bacon, cooked crisp and crumbled
1/2 cup all purpose flour
1 tsp garlic powder
1 green onions, chopped
1 large egg
1/2 cup Italian breadcrumbs
3 to 4 tablespoon vegetable oil, for frying
Optional toppings:
Sour cream
Ranch Dressing
Chopped green onions
Instructions
Combine the mashed potatoes, both cheeses, crumble bacon,
flour, garlic powder, onions and egg in a large bowl and stir to combine.
Chill the mixture, covered, for about 15 minutes, up to 24 hours.
Use an ice cream scoop with a trigger release handle to
scoop potato mixture into small 2 inch rounds. Shape the rounds into 1/3 inch
thick patties using your hands. Place the breadcrumbs in a shallow bowl and
coat potato patties on both sides with breadcrumbs.
Lightly oil the bottom of a cast iron or non-stick pan with
the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Cook the potato patties for 3 to 4
minutes per side, until golden brown, and then place on a paper towel lined
plate. Let cool slightly before enjoying. Dip in either sour cream or ranch
dressing.
