  • Save this post if you're a pumpkin lover! 🎃 You HAVE to try these rich and flavorful Pumpkin cupcakes! 🧁 Save this post! Full recipe below! 👇 (For Printable Recipe Card and Notes: https://www.chewoutloud.com/pumpkin-ginger-cupcakes/) Ingredients: 2 cups all purpose flour 3.4 ounce package instant vanilla pudding mix 2 tsp baking soda ¼ tsp table salt 1 TB ground cinnamon 2 tsp ground ginger ½ tsp nutmeg ¼ tsp ground cloves 1 cup salted butter, room temp 1 cup granulated sugar 1 cup light brown sugar, packed 4 large eggs, room temp 1 tsp pure vanilla extract 15 oz pure pumpkin puree Stabilized Whipped Cream 1 recipe stabilized whipped cream Ginger-Sugar Sprinkle 4 tbsp coarse sugar 1 tsp ground ginger Instructions: Preheat oven to 350F with rack on lower middle position. Line muffin tin with liners and set aside. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, pudding mix, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves. Set aside. In the bowl of a stand mixer with paddle attachment, beat the butter and both sugars on medium-high until light and fluffy, about 3-4 min. Mixture should look pale yellow and texture should be airy. Add eggs one at a time, incorporating into mixture individually. Add vanilla and pumpkin, beating until incorporated. Using rubber spatula, fold the dry flour mixture into the wet butter mixture. Fold gently until just incorporated, with a few little streaks of flour here and there remaining. Distribute the batter evenly into lined muffin cups. Bake until golden brown and toothpick inserted in center comes out with a few tender crumbs attached, 20-25 min. Do not over bake. Cool in pans 10 minutes and remove to wire rack to cool completely. Frost as desired with Stabilized Whipped Cream. Sprinkle liberally with coarse ginger-sugar for garnish. Cupcakes keep well in airtight container at a moderate room temp; leftovers may be frozen. #bakingfromscratch #bakingfun #f52grams #kitchn #feedfeedbaking #bakemyday #baketheworldabetterplace #bakinglove #bakingwithlove #bakersofinstagram #abmfoodie #tastemade #tryitordiet #eatfortheinsta #sweeeeets #forthemaking #rsloves #thekitchn #dessertoftheday #shareyourtable #makemore
  • Our favorite Dim Sum = Chinese Scallion Cakes 😋🙌🏼 They’re crispy, with tender flaky layers. YOU CAN make them right at home, only 5 ingredients!! Save this Post: Recipe Below 👇🏼 (For printable recipe card: https://www.chewoutloud.com/scallion-pancakes-green-onion-cakes/) 3 cups all purpose flour 1 cup boiling water ⅓ cup cold water 6 T salted butter, softened 6 T chopped green onions table salt and oil Place flour in a large bowl. Add boiling water and mix with wooden spatula (will be thick and rather dry.) Let cool a few minutes. Add the cold water and knead the dough 5 minutes, until it is smooth. If dough is too sticky, add a bit more flour. Dough should be pliable and smooth, a bit tacky (like play-dough) but not sticky. Cover with cling wrap and let rest 1 hour at room temp. Transfer dough to a floured working surface. Divide into 6 even pieces and roll each piece of dough into a 10-inch round. Spread about 1 TB of butter on top of each round. Sprinkle each round evenly with 1/4 tsp table salt, followed by about 1 TB green onions evenly over the surface of each. Roll each round tightly up like a jelly roll (think taquito.) Then take one end and roll it up to the other side into a wheel (think cinnamon bun.) Secure ends tightly pinched. Let the buns rest, covered, for 15 minutes. On a floured surface, gently press bun down to flatten (swirly side up) and roll out to 1/4 inch thick pancakes. Butter may seep out a bit during the rolling. Heat 2 TB oil in a large nonstick pan, over medium-low heat. Once oil is hot, gently place one cake into pan and fry until crispy and browned, shaking pan often. Flip over and fry other side the same way. Repeat with remaining pancakes. Pancakes can be kept on a paper towel lined baking sheet in a slightly warm oven, until all are prepared. #appetizers #dimsum #scallionpancake #fromscratch #recipeoftheday #chinesefood #asianfood #easyrecipes #tasty #delicious #cooking #homecooking #cookingtime #huffposttaste #buzzfeast #eater #foodblogger #feedfeed #todayfood #nytcooking #f52grams
  • Send this recipe to a Fall loving friend! 🍁💛 Tender juicy Fall apples covered with sugary, crispy streusel topping! 🍎 Save this post! Full recipe below! 👇 (For Printable Recipe Card and Notes: https://www.chewoutloud.com/moist-apple-fritter-bread/) Ingredients: Streusel Topping ⅓ cup light brown sugar ½ cup chopped pecans or walnuts 2 tsp ground cinnamon ¼ tsp ground nutmeg Apple Bread ⅔ cup granulated sugar ½ cup butter, softened to room temp, but not at all melted 2 large eggs ½ cup milk 2 TB canola oil 2 tsp pure vanilla extract 1 ½ cups all purpose flour 2 tsp baking powder 1 tsp ground cinnamon ½ tsp ground ginger ¼ tsp table salt 3 Granny Smith apples, peeled and chopped Glaze ½ cup powdered sugar 1 TB milk, more or less Instructions: Make the streusel topping by combining all topping ingredients in a bowl; stir to combine well. Set aside. Preheat oven to 350F with rack on lower middle position. Grease a 9×5 loaf pan. Set aside. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with paddle attachment, beat sugar and butter on medium-high speed until smooth and creamy. Beat eggs in 1 at a time until combined. Beat in milk, oil, and vanilla until incorporated. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, and salt until well combined. Add flour mixture into the butter/egg mixture. Beat on low speed just until combined. Do not over-mix. Use a rubber spatula to scrape down sides and fold batter just until no flour streaks remain. Pour half of the batter into greased loaf pan. Add half of the apples in an even layer and press down on them so they “stick” to batter. Sprinkle half of the Streusel Topping over apples. Pour remaining batter evenly on top. Press in the remaining apples, followed by the remaining Streusel Topping. Bake 60-70 minutes or just until a toothpick inserted in center of loaf comes out with a few tender crumbs attached. Cool loaf in pan completely before removing from pan. While loaf is cooling, make the glaze. Mix powdered sugar and milk together until it is a drizzle consistency. Drizzle glaze over cooled bread. #bakingfromscratch #bakingfun #f52grams #kitchn #feedfeedbaking #bakemyday
  • Homemade Naan (Indian flatbread) is SO much better than store bought! Warm, pillowy, and chewy! Save this Post; Recipe below 👇🏼 (For printable recipe card: https://www.chewoutloud.com/grilled-flatbread-like-naan/) 1 package, 2 1/4 tsp instant yeast 2 tsp sugar 1 ½ tsp salt, plus more for sprinkling ¼ cup 1 3/8 oz whole wheat flour 2 ½ cups 13 3/4 oz bread flour, plus more for dusting 1 cup room temperature water ¼ cup plain whole yogurt 1 TB olive oil, plus more for oiling bowl 4 TB melted butter for brushing on flatbreads kosher salt garlic powder In a standing mixer, combine yeast, sugar, salt, whole wheat flour, and bread flour in the bowl of mixer. Mix with paddle attachment until blended, about 15 seconds. Add water, yogurt, and olive oil. Mix on low until a shaggy dough forms, about 30 seconds. Replace the paddle with the dough hook and knead the dough on medium speed until smooth and glossy, about 8 minutes. Add more flour, only 1 TB at a time, if needed in order to get a dough that clears the sides of the bowl. Be careful not to add too much dough. It should still stick to the bottom of the bowl. (If mixing by hand, knead dough until smooth and elastic, 12-15 minutes.) Transfer dough ball to well oiled bowl. Turn dough in bowl, so surfaces of dough are protected by oil. Cover with plastic wrap and place in draft free, warm spot until dough has doubled in bulk. About 1 hour. #indianfood #naan #flatbread #bread #healthyfood #healthyeating #healthyrecipes #foodvideo #realfood #eatwell #fromscratch #recipeoftheday #easydinner #easyrecipes #dinnerideas #tasty #delicious #cooking #homecooking #cookingtime #huffposttaste #buzzfeast #eater #foodblogger #feedfeed #todayfood #nytcooking #cookinglight #f52grams

  • Who's a chocolate lover?? ✋🍫 Indulgently rich, this chocolate zucchini cake is surprisingly healthy too! It has the perfect balance of moisture and rich chocolate flavors that satisfy your sweet tooth! ✨ Save this post! Full recipe below! 👇 (For Printable Recipe Card and Notes: https://www.chewoutloud.com/chocolate-zucchini-cake-8/) Ingredients: 2 cups all purpose flour 2 ½ cups granulated sugar ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder 2 tsp instant coffee granules, decaf is fine 2 tsp baking soda 1 tsp baking powder ½ tsp table salt 4 large eggs 1 ⅓ cups canola oil 3 cups zucchini, finely grated and loosely packed 1 cup mini chocolate chips, semi-sweet (mini's are best, as they melt into the cake well) Optional: powdered sugar for dusting or frosting of your choice Instructions: Preheat oven to 350F, with rack on lower middle position. Grease and flour a 9×13 baking pan. Set aside. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, coffee granules, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Whisk to combine well. In a separate bowl, lightly beat the eggs. Add oil, zucchini, and mini chocolate chips. Stir to combine well. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold together the flour mixture with the egg mixture. Fold gently just until no more dry streaks of flour remain; do not overmix. Bake 40-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few tender crumbs attached (be sure to test in a cake-only spot; cracked spots tend to be misleading, since melted chocolate chips sit in those cracks.) Cool cake completely in pan before slicing and serving. If desired, decorate cake with powdered sugar or frosting of your choice #freshlybaked #bakinglove #foodphotography #bakersofinstagram #eaaaaats #bakingclass #bakingaddiction #bakingday #bakingisfun #bakingcookies #bakingcooking #baking101 #bakingislove #feedfeed #feedfeedbaking #feedfeedchocolate #bakersgonnabake #appetitejournal #bakeandshare #chocolatelover #chocolovers #tastingtable #thebakefeed
