Apple Pfannelkucken ($0.35 per Serving)

I was first introduced to this delectable dish by The Frugal Girl.    I enjoyed her
recipe but modified it to suit my family’s preferences.  


Now whenever we need a little pick me up or a special breakfast, we will make
a few of these pancakes and enjoy.    (I must confess we need to make
multiples because my son will eat an entire pancake himself.)    


Ingredients: 
4 Tablespoons of Butter
3 Tablespoons of Brown Sugar
2 Eggs 
6-7 Tablespoons of Flour
¼ Teaspoon of Salt
6-7 Tablespoons of Milk
1/2 Teaspoon Vanilla 
1 Medium Apple 
2 Tablespoon of Sugar 
½ Teaspoon of Cinnamon 


Instructions: 

Place butter in a 9 inch pie plate and
place in the oven.   Heat oven to 400 degrees F. 

In a medium bowl, beat eggs, flour, salt, milk and vanilla until smooth.  

In a separate bowl, combine sugar and cinnamon.  

Remove pan from oven when butter is melted and
add brown sugar.   Stir until combined.   

Peel and slice apples.  
Then place in the pan in a decorative manner.   

Sprinkle it with sugar and cinnamon.   

Pour batter over the top and bake in the oven for
18-20 minutes or until puffed and brown.  

When finished flip onto a cutting board
and cut like a pie.    Enjoy.

  The news is full of headlines indicating that energy shortages are on the horizon for most of the world. Over the decades, we have become reliant on the coolness of our air conditioners and have forgotten how we survived without them. It is now time to rediscover how to stay cool without our AC. Our 5 part series provides ideas on how to beat the heat this summer without the AC.     House Adjustments- Part 2 By placing house plants, such as English ivy, ficus, and spider plants, throughout your home, you can drop the overall temperature of your house by 10 degrees. In addition, house plants are air purifiers and add oxygen to your home.     For quick relief, create a personal mister to help drop the temperature of your skin: thus making you feel colder. Some people combine a spray bottle and a fan to create a cooling effect. However, I use just the spray bottle with cold water throughout the day and it keeps me cool. In addition, we use coo...

Frugal Five: #73

  The Frugal Five: #73 With inflation on the rise and salaries not increasing, our ability to make ends meet keeps going down.    Therefore, we must be more careful with our money.   The Frugal Five is a series where we celebrate the daily or weekly activities that help us live a frugal life.     1- “Potluck” lunch At work this week, we are having a potluck appetizer/dessert party for a colleague’s 60th birthday.  Everyone is expected to bring an appetizer or dessert for the party.    Since there will be a lot of food provided by everyone, I am not bringing my lunch that day and will eat from whatever people have brought.   In addition, on Friday, our social committee is providing us with a turkey lunch feast.     2- Picking up a Cheap Turkey This week at Kroger, if you spend $25.00, then you can purchase a Kroger turkey for just $0.49 per pound.  Although we do not prefer dark meat, we decided to take ...
