Maple Pecan Blondies

Here’s a blondie recipe that I have made many times!  Mine are never as gooey as Gemma’s and that’s probably because I over-bake them. I should keep a better eye on them next time. I like to brown the butter first but it’s not necessary. Enjoy!  Maple Pecan Blondies Makes 9-12 servings Original recipe from Bigger Bolder Baking Ingredients ¾ cup butter, melted or browned 1¼ cups dark brown sugar ½ cup maple syrup 1 large egg  2 teaspoons vanilla 1/2 teaspoon salt 2 cups all-purpose flour ¼ teaspoon baking soda I ¼ cups pecans, toasted and chopped  Directions   Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease and line a 9x13” baking pan with parchment. Gemma used 8x8 but I like my bars thinner. Whisk together the butter, brown sugar, maple syrup, egg, vanilla, and salt. Stir in the flour and baking soda just until combined.  Stir in the pecans. Pour mixture into prepared pan and bake for 30-35 minutes. They middle should be slightly jiggly but they still taste yummy if you over-bake them. Allow to co

Quiche With Ham & Cheese

 







Quiche is my favourite way to use leftover ham from Easter, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. I cut the ham in chunks and freeze it. 

You can make a pie crust or use a frozen one like I do.  If your crust is frozen, be sure to thaw it first. Cooking it from frozen will make your quiche soggy.

Some people use evaporated milk in their quiche but I don’t like the taste of that. Milk works just fine. Use what you have.

You can use Swiss cheese in this recipe to change it up a bit.
