Recipes Cookbook - Fresh Cherry Cake Recipe From Scratch

Fresh Cherry Cake Recipe From Scratch |#Pumpkindonutsbaked #Falldesserts #Falltreats #Bakingvideos #Fallbakingrecipes #Piecrustdesignseasy #Cherrycobblerwithfreshcherries #Cherrypiefillingrecipeshomemade #Frozencherryrecipes #Cherrycrumbbars #Cherrycrisprecipewithfreshcherries #Sweetcherryrecipes

Ingredients

    vanilla cake
  • 3 vanilla beans* (or 3tsp=1tbsp vanilla extract)
  • 1/2 cup canola oil or mild vegetable oil (120ml)
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated white sugar (300g)
  • 1 1/2 cups buttermilk, room temperature (360ml)
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, room temperature (113g)
  • 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled (420g)
  • 4 large eggs, room temperature
  • 2 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • cherry pie filling
  • 1 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice (15ml)
  • 2 cups fresh cherries, pitted (1 lbs / 450g)
  • 1/2 cup granulated white sugar (100g)
  • 1/4 cup water (60ml)
  • 1 1/2 tbsp cornstarch (12g)
  • vanilla buttercream
  • 2-4 tbsp heavy whipping cream (30-60ml)
  • pinch of salt
  • 4 cups powdered sugar, sifted (480g)
  • 1 1/4 cups unsalted butter, room temperature (284g)
  • 2 vanilla beans* (or 2 tsp vanilla extract)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F / 175°C. Line the bottom and the sides of two 8" (20cm) baking pans with parchment paper. Set aside.
  2. Vanilla Cake Layers In a medium bowl combine flour, baking powder, and salt and stir to combine. Set aside. In a large mixing bowl with a stand or handheld mixer fitted with a whisk or paddle attachment, beat butter, oil, and sugar until creamy for about 2-3 minutes. Add 1 egg at the time and mix until fully incorporated. Add vanilla* and stir to combine. Alternately add dry ingredients and buttermilk, beginning and ending with dry ingredients. Stir just until combined. Divide batter into the two prepared baking pans equally. Bake for 30-33 minutes or until a toothpick in the center comes out clean. Don't overbake or the cake will be dry. Let cool to room temperature.
  3. Cherry Pie Filling Place all ingredients in a large saucepan and bring over medium heat to a boil. Cook for 5-8 minutes until the cherries get soft. Stir constantly. Blend cherries with an immersion blender. Cook another 5-8 minutes or until the filling has thickened and reduced by about 1/3. Stir constantly. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature. It will thicken as it cools.
  4. Vanilla Buttercream In a large mixing bowl beat butter on medium speed until super creamy, about 2-3 minutes. Add 1 cup powdered sugar at the time and beat on low speed until combined. When all the sugar is in, beat on medium speed until the sugar is dissolved. Stir in vanilla*. Mix in 1 tbsp heavy cream at the time until you reach your desired consistency. The buttercream should be creamy and fluffy but firm enough to spread. I added exactly 3 tbsp. Add a pinch of salt and stir to combine.
  5. Assembling Cut a thin layer off the tops of your cakes to create a flat surface. Then cut each cake in half horizontally. Place one cake layer on a cake stand or serving plate. Spread 1/4 of the buttercream over the cake. The buttercream should be higher around the edges that it holds the cherry filling inside the cake. Layer with 1/3 of the cherry filling (where the buttercream is lower). Repeat two more times. Place last cake layer on top and lightly frost the outside and the sides of the cake with the remaining frosting. Chill 4 hours in the fridge. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge up to 2 days.

Recipes Cookbook - Italian Lemon Almond Flour Cake

Italian Lemon Almond Flour Cake |#Almondflourrecipes #Glutenfreebaking #Glutenfreerecipes #Glutenfreesweets #Dessertrecipes #Foodswithgluten #Glutenfreebaking #Almondflourcakes #Foodswithgluten #Cupcakecakes #Italianlemoncake #Glutenfreesweets

Ingredients

  • 320 grams (this is about 3 cups + 3 tablespoons) almond flour (not almond meal) or blanched almonds, ground into almond flour
  • 200 grams (1 cup + 3 tablespoons) white chocolate, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons whipping cream or milk (I used 1.5% milk)
  • 180 grams (3/4 cup + 1 tablespoon) unsalted butter, softened
  • 130 grams (about 2/3 cup) granulated sugar or coconut sugar1
  • zest of 4 lemons, about 2 tablespoons
  • 4 large eggs, separated
  • 1 teaspoon lemon extract
  • 40 grams (about 2 tablespoons) of limoncello or lemon juice
  • berries and powdered sugar as garnish, optional

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F / 176°C and grease a 10" / 26cm pan or line it with parchment paper. If using blanched almonds instead of almond flour, process them in the food processor until they're pretty finely ground. If you grind them too much, they'll release oil and become almond butter.
  2. Combine the white chocolate and milk / cream in a microwave safe bowl.
  3. Heat in 30 second increments and stir after every 30 seconds. Set aside to cool while you prepare the rest. Beat the butter with 100 grams of sugar and beat until fluffy.
  4. Add the lemon zest, egg yolks and lemon extract and beat until well combined. Then add the almond flour / ground almonds and the melted chocolate. Add the limoncello / lemon juice and beat until combined.
  5. In a separate bowl with spotlessly clean beaters, beat the egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually add the remaining 30 grams of sugar to the egg white mixture. Fold the egg whites into the almond batter until well combined. Spoon the batter into the greased pan and bake for 40 - 45 minutes. If making half the cake, use a 7" / 18cm pan and bake for 30 minutes. The cake will puff up in the oven, but when cooling, it'll fall back down.
  6. Let it cool completely in the pan and then invert the cake onto a plate, and then flip that back into the pan or onto another plate (so that it's not upside down). Sprinkle on some powdered sugar if desired and top with berries, but only before serving. Cake can be stored at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerated (I think it's best that way) for up to 5.

Recipes Cookbook - SKILLET CHICKEN IN BALSAMIC CARAMELIZED ONION CREAM SAUCE





SKILLET CHICKEN IN BALSAMIC CARAMELIZED ONION CREAM SAUCE |#Chickenvesuviorecipe #Neworleansrecipes #Chickenbreastrecipeseasydinners #Chickenandonionrecipes #Chickentenderloinrecipes #Smotheredchicken #Groundporkrecipesfordinner #Creamydijonsauce #Chickenandonionrecipes #Frenchonionchicken #Chickentenderloinrecipes #Chickenbreastrecipeseasydinners









Ingredients

  • 4 small boneless, skinless chicken breasts (or thighs)
  • salt and pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped onions
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh thyme
  • pinch of red pepper flakes
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream






Instructions

  1. cook the chicken: season both sides of the chicken breast with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chicken all the way through. Remove the chicken to a plate.
  2. caramelize the onions: add the butter to the skillet along with the onions. Push the onions around the pan so they pick up all the flavor bits left behind by the chicken, lower the heat to medium-low and allow the onions to cook for 12-15 minutes, stirring them as needed to prevent from sticking. The onions are done when they soften completely and deepen in color. Add the thyme, red pepper flakes, sugar, and balsamic vinegar, let the vinegar cook out for a couple of minutes.
  3. make the sauce: Grab a whisk for this next step. Slowly pour in the chicken broth in a steady stream while you whisk, this will help deglaze the pan. Kick the heat up to high and let the sauce reduce for 2-3 minutes or until it thickens a bit. Once the sauce reduces, lower the heat again, and add in the cream. You don’t want the cream to start boiling immediately as it will cause the sauce to split. Let the sauce come to a gentle simmer, once it does, add in the chicken breasts and spoon the sauce on top. Serve immediately. The sauce will thicken as it sits so you may need additional broth to thin it out.
