One Bowl Berry Coffee Cake

I had some berries they weren’t being eaten so I made this delicious berry cake. I had fresh berries but you could also use frozen. This cake is so easy to make, and you only need one bowl. I think it would also taste great with cranberries and lemon extract instead of almond.  One Bowl Berry Coffee Cake Makes 1 11x7” Cake Ingredients 2 cups fresh berries (I used blueberries and strawberries)  1/4 cup brown sugar 3/4 cup white sugar 1/4 cup butter, melted 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1/2 teaspoon almond extract 2 large eggs 3/4 cup sour cream 1/4 cup milk 2 cups all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon baking powder 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/3 cup sliced or sliced almonds Brown sugar for topping Directions Preheat the oven to 350F and grease an 11”x7” baking dish.

Beef Satay with Peanut Sauce

Another adaptation on a recipe from The South Beach Diet's Taste of Summer cookbook. I ate it all myself, but you can share if you're in the mood.



 Beef Satay with Peanut Sauce
Makes 1 -2 servings.

 Ingredients
  • 6oz grilling steak
  • 2 cloves minced garlic
  • juice of 1 lime
  • 1 teaspoon fresh grated ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
  • salt
  • pepper
  • 1 tablespoon peanut butter
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 1 teaspoon low sodium soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon red wine vinegar
  • red pepper flakes to taste
Directions
  1. Slice steak in 1/4" strips.
  2. Combine garlic, lime juice, ginger, sesame oil, salt and pepper. Add steak and mix. Set aside on the counter for about 20 minutes.
  3. Mix remaining ingredients together and set aside.
  4. You can put the steak strips on skewers if you wish, but I found it easier just to leave them as they were. Preheat a nonstick pan over high heat. Once the pan is hot, add the steak strips. You may have to do it in batches.
  5. Cook for 1-2 minutes then flip. Cook for another minute or two then remove from the pan. Let rest for a few minutes then serve with peanut dipping sauce.
Tip: This recipe would also work with chicken breast.
