More suited to a cocktail party than a baseball game, this riff on Cracker Jack by Atlanta pastry chef Taria Camerino is sweetened with agave nectar and spiked with tequila. Slow-baking turns the popcorn-nut mix fabulously crunchy.
The noodles strike a satisfying note thanks to a garlicky Thai-inspired sauce and toppings of warm tofu and vegetables that shift with the seasons. The salad-like garnish is precisely the cool, crunchy counterpoint those chewy noodles need.
OPB's Kate Clause offers this reprieve from the classic pumpkin pie — a pumpkin bread with a heavy dose of concentrated, freshly brewed chai tea topped with a crunchy, sweet streusel including Oregon hazelnuts and walnuts.
The loaf is made of small pieces of dough rolled in a garlic herb butter and sprinkled with freshly grated Parmesan cheese before heading to the oven to bake. When it emerges, the bread is so soft, tender, and packed with flavor.
The toppings make this soup fun for both kids and adults to eat. Crunchy tortilla strips, avocados, and cheese offer something for everyone. Even kids who typically resist vegetables are sure to gobble this veggie-rich soup right up.
Use peaches that aren't superripe for this recipe so they'll hold their shape when cooked. The baking dish will be brimming with fruit and topping, so it's a good idea to place it on a foil-lined baking sheet before putting it in the oven.
Imagine a big wedge of the Cheesecake Factory's Oreo Cheesecake that you can hold in your hand. Sure, it's not the classiest thing to ever come out of my oven... but who cares. Warm one (or two) up in the microwave, top with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream, and enjoy a filthy good treat.
You can essentially turn any leftover meat into a frittata. All you do is dice up the meat, chop up some veggies (frozen veggies are perfect), sauté them in an oven-safe skillet,...
These spicy pumpkin muffins are good for a quick breakfast on the run or to include in bag lunches. A combination of brown sugar and granulated sugar in the recipe creates a crunchy topping that contrasts with the moist, tender muffins.
Crunchy, sweet and addictive. I have suggested the 24 oz size package of tortilla, however, any size package may be used depending on the size and amount you would like to make. Therefore, cooking times will vary.
It couldn't be easier to get an enjoyable dinner on the table...simply combine the ingredients in a baking dish and pop the dish in the oven. In less than an hour, you have a savory pork chop and rice dinner.
Pulled from the oven on a weekend morning, these rolls are an absolute show-stopper. And that's even before you dip them in melted butter and roll them in cinnamon and sugar! We love to eat them slowly, pulling off one tender piece at a time and taking sips of coffee in between. Pure buttery bliss.
These roasted edamame are completely and utterly addictive, which is trouble if guests are coming in an hour and you can't stop nibbling on them. They're crunchy on the outside and chewy in the middle. The sweet flavor of the edamame is balanced by sea salt and freshly-cracked black pepper. You might want to make a double batch.
The most time-consuming step in this dish is broiling the tomatoes to reduce their liquid and intensify their flavor. Since the 20 minutes they need in the oven is hands-off, however, you can easily get the rest of the ingredients ready to go so that the entire dish clocks in at just about 25 minutes.
Sometimes you just need a biscuit. One that's warm from the oven and pillow-soft in the middle. These particular scruffy-looking biscuits have become a recent obsession of mine, owing in great part to the fact that they're incredibly easy to throw together. They're also studded with bits of smoky bacon and flavored with sharp cheddar cheese - who can resist that?
This colorful hash turns out like a casserole after it’s topped with polenta and cheese and warmed in the oven. Spring Leek Hash with Polenta and Goat Cheese, 3.0 out of 4 based on 5 ratings
A banana cream pie with a twist: an almond crust, with a thin layer of dark chocolate, a single layer of fresh sliced bananas, and a sweetened condensed milk custard. This is a nearly no-bake pie. The only time you have to turn on the oven is to bake the crust for 12 to 14 minutes.
Dear ErinCooks: I have a chocolate chip cookie conundrum: try as I might I can't get my cookies to the consistency I like. I am a fan of chewy chocolate chip cookies, not cakey or crunchy, just chewy. I think
