I'm about half done with my Christmas shopping! I'm also half way done with Insanity, but I seem to have pinched a nerve in my back, again =( I hope it gets better before Saturday. I'm running in the Color Vibe 5k, but at this rate I may be hobbling. What else have we done??? Hmm... I started preschool home-school. Mr.M seems to enjoy it, Mr.R likes listening in and jumping in the jumperoo that he's technically is too heavy for (25lb 7m2d old=beast). Two Mama Owls has been going well! We're starting to pick up again. I only work at night when they're sleeping, so I have learned to pick up the pace for sure. Check out our Fall stuff @ Two Mama Owls!
For the exciting part of this post, FOOD!
Today I made something delicious and 2yr old helper friendly! I made this because I needed something and seriously did not feel like going to the store!
Pancake Batter Monkey Bread!
You'll need
- 1 box pancake batter
- Approx. 1 1/2c milk
- 1c sugar
- 1tsp cinnamon
- 4 small apples
- 6tbs melted butter
- Pour the batter in a large bowl and slowly add milk while mixing. When it is all blended and before it's sticky stop with the milk. On a floured surface roll out the "dough-like-batter" until it's about 1/2in thick. Using a circular cookie cutter or cup cut as many circles as you can and then cut them in half.
- Core and dice the apples. In a small bowl combine the sugar and cinnamon. Place half the apples in a bowl and coat them with 1/4 of the sugar mixture. Place them at the bottom of a well greased/sprayed bundt pan. Place half pancake half circles in a bowl, coat with 1/4 mixture and then put them on top of apples....do the rest of the apples and then the rest of the pancake.
- Pour the melted butter over the top. Bake it on 375 for about 40 min
- Enjoy!
I must run off to bed! 6am comes wayyy too fast!
