Banana Cake (or bread)
1/2 C margarine (I use Gold n Soft or Blue Bonnet)
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
( 1 tsp pure vanilla if desired)
3-4 smaller bananas - mashed
1/4 cup milk
1 tsp lemon juice
2 cups Flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
chopped pecans or other nuts if you desire 1/2 cup or so- I don't measure, just throw in a handful or two.
Cream margarine and sugar. Add eggs and beat well. Add bananas (confession- I just throw them in and let the mixer mash them) vanilla if desired, milk, and lemon juice. After those ingredients are mixed in well, add the baking powder, baking soda, and salt. I add these separate from the flour so that they get a better chance to fully incorporate instead of using the sifting method. Then, add the flour and nuts (if you are).
Bake in a 8 x 8 cake/brownie pan- at 350 degrees for approximately 45-50 minutes. Or you can bake in a loaf pan for banana bread and you would need to bake it for an hour.
For a 9x13 pan, double the recipe.

German Pancakes
German Pancakes:
For 8x8 pan:
3 TB butter
- place in baking dish and put dish in oven while it preheats. do not let the butter burn- just melt!
3 Eggs
1/2 C Milk
1/2 C flour
1/2 tsp salt
Beat eggs. Add remaining ingredients and blend well. Remove preheated pan from oven and pour batter into pan with the melted butter. DO NOT STIR. Return pan to oven and bake for 15 to 20 minutes at 400 degrees until puffy and lightly golden brown (the puffy will fall somewhat after it leaves the oven. Serves 4
Serve with maple syrup, the fabulous buttermilk syrup, fresh fruit, powdered sugar, whatever pancake topping floats your boat, but you shouldn't need any additional butter on them :)
For a 9x13 pan- double the recipe, and bake for 20-25 minutes- it will serve 6-8 (depending on how big of eaters you have).

Easy Quiche
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 C evaporated milk (make sure it is evaporated milk)
1 pkg crescent roll dough
1/2 - ground sausage ( 1lb if not using mushrooms)
2-3 green onions, sliced
1 C chopped mushrooms (optional)
1/4 lb cheddar cheese, grated
1/4 lb Monterey Jack cheese, grated
Heat oven to 325 F
Brown sausage (and mushrooms) and drain. Line bottom of pie plate with crescent roll dough sections, covering all the inner surface and up the sides, pinching together to make a crust. Put drained sausage(mushroom) and green onion slices in bottom of crust and level. Mix together beaten eggs and evaporated milk and pour over the mix in the crust. Meat mix should be barely covered. If needed, you can add more egg/milk mixture by an egg and 1/4 C of milk at a time. Top the mix with the grated cheeses and bake for 40-45 min.
This fits a standard pie pan- if you use a deep dish pan or larger round pan- then you may need to double the recipe.

Favorite Aunt's Cinnamon Rolls
Favorite Aunt's Cinnamon Rolls
1 C lukewarm water
2 TB yeast
1/2 C sugar
Add together and let sit until bubbly.
3/4 C lukewarm milk
1 egg
1/3 C margarine (or butter)
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp lemon extract
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
1 tsp salt
5-6 cups of flour- or until you can handle the dough but it's still slightly sticky.
Add these to the yeast mix.
Place in a greased bowl and let rise until double.
You will also need brown sugar, cinnamon, powdered sugar, milk, and more butter.
Meanwhile- slightly grease a baking sheet, then dot with small pats of butter. Sprinkle with brown sugar.
Once dough has raised, preheat the oven to 400-F.
On a greased counter, roll out dough into a large rectangle- the wider the rectangle, the bigger the rolls- I usually go about double the length as the width- so my rolls are about palm size. Spread the dough with softened butter, sprinkle generously with cinnamon (or to taste) until dough is covered, then cover with brown sugar. You can get creative with orange rind, and or chopped nuts at this point, too.
roll up dough from the wide side, then cut into 1" to 1 1/2" thick slices. Place on prepared pan and bake for 12 to 15 minutes- until light golden brown across the tops.
Make glaze- melt 2/3 C or so of butter. Add small amount of vanilla if desired. Then add enough powdered sugar to make a thick paste. Dilute with milk until it makes a thin icing. Once the rolls are baked, remove from oven, and drizzle with the icing.

Crepes- sweet- breakfast/dessert style
Crepes:
1 1/2 C flour
1 TB Sugar
1/2 tsp Baking Powder
1/2 tsp salt
2 C Milk
2 Eggs
1/2 tsp Vanilla
2 TB melted Butter or Marg. (plus more for the pan)
I double this for my family- but then I have yet to conquer my heavy hand.
Now- if you are looking for a tutorial on crepe making, you have come to the wrong place. I just wing it the best I can, and I promise my crepes are too thick for some people, but oh well.
Combine all ingredients in a blender, mix well, then refrigerate for 30 minutes at least. Have butter available near your pan. Making sure pan is hot and greased, pour enough batter to lightly coat the bottom of the pan, swirling the batter around to coat. Cook until firm, then carefully flip and cook slightly on the other side if desired, I usually just take them off and stack them on a plate. Repeat until batter is gone, or the pigs are done eating- which ever comes first.
