2 Tbsp sugar

1/2 tsp salt

1 tsp baking soda

1 tsp baking powder

1 egg, separated (VERY IMPORTANT)

4 Tbsp, melted and cooled

1/4 cup whole milk

In a medium bowl, whisk flour, sugar, salt, soda and baking powder.  In a separate bowl, whisk egg yolk, butter, buttermilk and milk.  Add yolk mixture to dry mixture and stir until barely combined.  Beat egg white until fluffy.  Add egg white to batter and stir until combined.

Baked Omelette

2 c. cottage cheese

8 oz diced ham

1/2 tsp pepper

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

In a large bowl, beat eggs with a hand mixer on medium speed for 3 minutes or until light and lemon-colored. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt in a different bowl. Gradually add eggs and mix well. Stir in cheeses and ham.

Expert Tips

If you'd like to lighten this up a bit, substitute some of the egg yolks by adding additional egg whites in their place. It results in a lower-calorie and lower-fat meal.

You'll get the best result if you use milk with a higher fat percentage like 2% milk, whole milk or cream. The fat gives you the best texture.

Prep it the night before! After pouring it in the pan, cover and place in the refrigerator. The next more pull out of the refrigerator, stir to make sure the ingredients are all on the bottom and then bake. We recommend baking it within 12-16 hours of prepping it.

Got leftovers? Reheat the slices by placing on a microwave safe plate and heating for about 1 minute. You can also reheat the leftovers in a pan at 325 degrees F for 10-15 minutes.

Want to mix things up? Change up the ingredients for different flavor profiles. A few different ideas are bell peppers, onion, ham and cheese for a "Denver" omelette. You can really add any type of vegetable, just make sure to finely chop them so they bake quickly.

Frozen vegetables will also work in this recipe, but make sure to saute them before adding them to the egg mixture.

If you'd like to change the meat up by adding bacon or sausage make sure to cook it before you add it to the egg mixture.

Another way to change things up is to use different cheeses!

French Toast Sausage Roll Ups

Ingredients

• 8-10 slices bread  , white or wheat sandwich bread
• 8-10 sausage links , cooked
• 3 eggs
• 1/2 cup milk
• 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1 tablespoon flour

Instructions

1. Slice crust off of bread. Use a rolling pin or your hands to flatten the bread. 
2. Place a sausage link on the front edge of the bread and roll up tightly like a taquito. 
3. Preheat griddle or skillet over medium heat. Grease well with butter.
4. To a shallow dish add the eggs, milk, sugar, cinnamon, vanilla, and flour.
5. Dip sausage roll ups into the egg mixture, rolling gently to coat all sides, and place on hot griddle.

Crockpot French Toast

Breakfast French toast

-1 whole loaf of bread

--1 dozen eggs
--2 t vanilla
--4 cups of milk (1 used 3 cups of soy, and 1 cup of heavy cream)
--1/4 t salt
--2 t cinnamon
--1/4 cup brown sugar
--1/4 cup walnuts, or other desired nuts (optional. I did not use nuts this time.)

The Directions

I used a 6 qt Smart-Pot Crock-Pot for this. I'd recommend a 5 or 6qt for this dish. If you have a smaller crock pot, scale back a bit. Maybe only use 1/2 a loaf of bread.

Grease the inside of your crock pot very well with butter, shortening, or cooking spray. Slice your bread into large slices (if it's already sliced, just dump it in) and place the bread into the crock pot.

In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, brown sugar, salt, cinnamon, and vanilla together. Pour on top of the bread.

Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours. This is done when the bread has soaked up all of the liquid and the egg has cooked (you can tell because you'll see bits of cooked egg stuck to the bread). The bread will expand---it's like one of those spongy foam things that come in the capsules and turn into a dinosaur. Very cool.

After 8 hours, I had a bit of liquid left in the crock pot, but the bread on top was browned nicely and the egg was done. I took the lid off and went hunting for the camera, and then checked email, and then watered the garden. 30 minutes had passed before I remembered that I had left the lid off of the crock pot, and that it was still plugged in. BUT! all the moisture was gone and the French toast was perfect.

so there you go. I'd give that a try.

The Verdict.
Very good! We ate this for dinner, but I will most definitely make it again for a nice family breakfast or brunch.

Breakfast Casserole

1 cup milk

Add 2 cups water.  Cook on low 6-8 hours or on high for 2-4 hours.

Breakfast Burritos

Ingredients:

1 lb. Pork Sausage (I use Jimmy Dean)

1 Pkg. Hash browns (I use Simply Potatoes)

8 to 12 Large eggs

1/4 cup milk

1 pkg. shredded cheese (I use cheddar today, but I have used a Mexican blend)

salt and pepper to taste

1 to 2 pkg. flour tortillas (I used the soft taco size tortillas)

That's it.

All the ingredients (except the milk.)

Let's go through the steps.

1. Brown sausage - drain on a paper towel.

Cook hash browns in the same pan.

(I use a non-stick electric frying pan)

While the hash browns are cooking - 

In a large mixing bowl, whisk eggs, milk, salt and pepper.

Add browned sausage back to the pan with the cooked hash browns.

 Silly me, I forgot to take pictures of the next step - but it isn't hard. 

 Add the eggs to the sausage mixture and cook until the eggs are done, stirring gently.

After eggs are done - lay a tortilla on counter.  Place egg mixture on tortilla.  Top with cheese.  Roll into a burrito.

Depending on how many eggs you use and how large you make each burrito,  will determine how many burritos you will end up with.  On the day I fixed these I used ten eggs and made twenty-two burritos.

Wrap the burritos in plastic wrap.

Then place the wrapped burritos in freezer zip-lock bags.

I put four burritos in a small zip-lock bag and then place several of the smaller bags into a larger zip-lock bag.

Place in freezer.

When you are ready to eat - take the number of burritos you want out of the freezer (we usually only do two at a time) - unwrap  (yes, I am making a big deal about this - if you have wrapped the burritos in plastic wrap you MUST unwrap them!) - place in a paper towel and warm ONE of the burritos for 45 seconds - take out - warm the second ONE for 45 seconds.  Then put the first one back in the microwave for another 30 seconds. Repeat for second burrito. 

I know this method of warming sounds strange, but we have found to be able to heat the burrito all the way through, this is the best way.

Serve with salsa, sour cream, or plain.  Your choice.

Homemade Waffles

• 1 1/2 cups (375 ml) flour
• 2 Tbsp (25 ml) sugar
• 2 tsp (10 ml) baking powder
• ½ tsp (2 ml) baking soda
• ½ tsp (2 ml) salt
• 1 1/4 -1 1/2 cups (300- 375 ml) milk
• 2 eggs

Preheat your waffle iron before making the batter.

Mix together ingredients making the batter slightly runny, it will puff up as you cook the waffles.

Spray waffle iron with cooking spray and ladle batter into the iron. Close lid and cook as directed for your waffle iron. The waffles should be lightly golden brown on both sides.

Spray between each batch of waffles and repeat until you use all the batter.

To keep waffles crispy as they cool place them on a cooling or baking rack in a single layer. Stacking them will cause them to soften because of the heat and steam

Freezing Homemade Waffles

Place cooled waffles on a cookie sheet and put in the freezer until firm. Pack into freezer bags, label, date and add to your freezer inventory sheet.

Serve Frozen Waffles

Waffles can be baked in the oven or cooked in the microwave until warmed through.

For a single serving of crispy waffles reheat them in the toaster once or twice until heated through. If they stick up past the toaster then flip them and re-toast.

1/2 tsp. baking soda

1 Tbsp. white Karo

French Toast in Crockpot!

Place a loaf of bread in a well-greased 6-quart slow cooker. Use a half loaf of bread for a smaller slow cooker and adjust the other ingredients accordingly. Whisk together 1 dozen eggs, 1 quart of milk, 1 tbsp. vanilla, 2 tsp. cinnamon, 1/2 tsp. salt and 1/4 cup honey. Pour this over the bread. Sprinkle 1/3 cup chopped pecans over everything. Cook on low for 6 to 8 hours until the bread has absorbed all of the liquid.

**I cooked mine for 5 hours on high. The house smelled wonderful when we came home from church!

***My family liked this. It kind of turned out like a casserole. Jared suggested putting sausage inside it and adding maple syrup to make this just a bit different. Overall I give it 3 stars.
