  • 3/4 tsp. baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1 tsp. cinnamon
  • 1 C sugar
  • 1/4 C butter, softened

  • 1/4 C pecans, chopped
  • 1/4 C brown sugar
Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 350. Line a muffin tin with liners.

Add the mashed banana, yogurt, and vanilla. Slowly add the flour mixture and beat until just combined (don't over-mix).

Double-Chocolate Zucchini Muffins

Ingredients:
  • 1-1/2 C coarsely grated zucchini
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/3 C nonfat or low-fat plain yogurt
  • 1/3 C canola oil
  • 1 C sugar
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 3/4 C whole-wheat pastry flour
  • 3/4 C flour
  • 1/3 C unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp. baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 C semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • Confectioners' sugar for dusting
Instructions:

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line 1 dozen regular-size muffin tins or 36 mini muffin tins with paper liners or generously grease with oil or butter. If you want to bake this in a loaf pan, generously grease a 9x5-inch pan well with oil or butter.

Put the grated zucchini in a colander set over the sink and use your hands to squeeze out some of the liquid. Leave in the sink until ready to use.

In a large bowl, beat the eggs with an electric mixer on high until foamy and light yellow, a minute or so. Add the yogurt, canola oil, sugar, and vanilla and beat again on medium until one even color and consistency, another minute. Set aside. You can also do this with a whisk and a little elbow grease.

In a medium bowl, combine the whole-wheat pastry flour, all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. Stir well with a fork to blend all the ingredients.

Add the dry ingredients to the wet and beat on medium just until evenly mixed together, scraping down the sides as needed.

Add the zucchini and chocolate chips to the batter. Mix until just combined.

For full-size cupcakes, fill each tin with a scant ¼ cup of batter. For mini cupcakes, figure about 1 ½ tablespoons of batter each (although this can vary depending on the size of your muffin tins).

Put into the oven and bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 25 to 28 minutes for full-size cupcakes, closer to 20 minutes for minis, and about an hour for a loaf.

Remove from oven and leave on the counter until completely cool. Finish with a light dusting of confectioners' sugar, your favorite chocolate frosting, or 1/4 cup of melted chocolate chips (in the case of the loaf).

Cabot Cheddar Soda Bread

Ingredients:
  • 2-1/2 C flour
  • 2 tsp. baking powder
  • 1 tsp. baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 4 Tbs. cold unsalted butter, cut into pats
  • 8 oz. Cabot sharp or extra-sharp cheddar, grated; about 2 cups, lightly packed
  • 1-1/4 C buttermilk*
  • 1 egg
  • *Don't have buttermilk? Substitute 3/4 cup plain yogurt + 1/2 cup milk
Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly grease an 8' square or 9' round pan.

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add the butter, working it into the flour until the mixture is crumbly. Toss in the grated cheese. Mix the buttermilk and egg, and add to the dry ingredients, stirring just until everything is moistened.

Scoop the sticky dough into the pan, using your wet fingers to spread it to the edges of the pan. Bake the bread for 40 to 45 minutes, until a cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean. Its internal temperature at the center will be close to 200°F.

Remove the bread from the oven, and loosen the edges with a table knife. Wait 5 minutes, then gently turn it out onto a rack to cool. It's tempting, but wait about 20 minutes before cutting the bread, if you can; it's a bit crumbly when hot.

Cinnamon Streusel Coffecake

Ingredients:
  • Streusel Topping:
  • 1-1/4 C sugar
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • 1-1/2 C flour
  • 1 Tbs. cinnamon
  • 6 Tbs. butter, melted

  • Filling:
  • 1/3 C brown sugar
  • 1-1/2 Tbs. cinnamon
  • 1 tsp. unsweetened cocoa powder

  • Cake:
  • 3/4 C butter
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 1-1/2 C sugar
  • 1/3 C brown sugar
  • 2-1/2 tsp. baking powder
  • 2 tsp. vanilla
  • 3 eggs
  • 3/4 C non-fat sour cream or plain yogurt
  • 1-1/4 C non-fat milk
  • 3-3/4 C flour (for half; 1-3/4 C plus 2 Tbs.)
Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray a 9x13-inch pan (or two 9-inch-round cake pans) with cooking spray.

Make the topping by whisking together the sugar, salt, flour, and cinnamon. Add the melted butter, stirring till well combined. Set the topping aside.

Make the filling by mixing together the brown sugar, cinnamon, and cocoa powder. Set it aside.

To make the cake: In a large bowl, beat together the butter, salt, sugars, baking powder, and vanilla until well combined and smooth. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. In a separate bowl, whisk together the sour cream or yogurt and milk till well combined. You don't need to whisk out all the lumps. Add the flour to the butter mixture alternately with the milk/sour cream mixture, beating gently to combine.

Pour/spread half the batter (a scant 3 cups) into the prepared pan(s), spreading all the way to the edges. If you're using two 9' round pans, spread 1 1/3 cups batter in each pan. Sprinkle the filling evenly atop the batter. Spread the remaining batter atop the filling. Use a table knife to gently swirl the filling into the batter, as though you were making a marble cake. Don't combine filling and batter thoroughly; just swirl the filling through the batter. Sprinkle the topping over the batter in the pan.

Bake the cake until it's a dark golden brown around the edges; medium-golden with no light patches showing on top, and a toothpick or cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean, about 55 to 60 minutes for the 9' x 13' pan, 50 to 55 minutes for the 9' round pans. When pressed gently in the middle, the cake should spring back. Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool for 20 minutes before cutting and serving. Serve cake right from the pan.

Notes:

2009…2021
Tips from our bakers: *It's easy to spread half the batter in the pan when you know how much it weighs. If you have a kitchen scale, half the batter weighs about 28 ounces. * Want to prepare this coffeecake the night before, then bake in the morning? It's easy; simply cover the unbaked cake with plastic wrap, and refrigerate overnight. Next morning, bake the cake as directed. Start testing for doneness at the end of the suggested baking time; you'll probably have to add 5 minutes or so to the total time, to account for the batter being chilled.

Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla. Reserve 1 tablespoon dry ingredients. Mix remaining dry ingredients into butter mixture alternately with buttermilk in 3 additions, beginning and ending with dry ingredients. Mix dried cranberries with reserved 1 tablespoon dry ingredients in small bowl. Fold dried cranberries into batter.

Transfer batter to prepared pan (batter will come only about halfway up sides of pan). Smooth top. Mix walnuts, cinnamon and remaining 1/4 cup sugar in medium bowl. Sprinkle over batter.

Whole Grain Pancake Mix

Ingredients:
  • Mix:
  • 4 C white whole wheat or whole wheat flour
  • 1 C flour
  • 3-1/2 cups old-fashioned oats
  • 3 Tbs. sugar
  • 3 Tbs. baking powder
  • 1 Tbs. salt
  • 1 Tbs. baking soda
  • 1 C canola oil

  • Pancakes:

  • 1 C homemade mix
  • 1 C buttermilk, or a combination of plain yogurt and milk; or 3/4 cup liquid whey
  • 1 egg
Instructions:

To make the mix: Grind the oats in a food processor until they're chopped fine, but not a powder.

Put the flour, oats, and all other dry ingredients into a mixer with a paddle. Mix on slow speed, and drizzle the vegetable oil into the bowl slowly while the mixer is running.

Store in an airtight container for up to two weeks at room temperature, or indefinitely in the refrigerator or freezer.


To make pancakes: Whisk together 1 cup of mix, 1 cup of buttermilk (or alternative), and egg. Don't worry if it seems thin at first: the oats will soak up the milk, and the mix will thicken a bit as it stands. Let the batter stand for at least 20 minutes before cooking.

Heat a lightly greased griddle to 350°F (if you've got a griddle with a temperature setting; if not, medium-hot will do). Drop the batter onto it in 1/4-cupfuls (a jumbo cookie scoop works well here) to make a 4' diameter pancake.

When the edges look dry and bubbles come to the surface without breaking (after about 2 minutes, if your griddle is the correct temperature), turn the pancake over to finish cooking on the second side, which will take about 2 minutes.


Yield: a batch using 1 cup of the mix will make about 5 to 8 pancakes, depending on size.

Cran-Orange Scones

Ingredients:
  • 1/2 C chopped fresh or thawed frozen cranberries, drained
  • 1/4 C plus 2 Tbs. granulated sugar
  • 2 C flour
  • 2 tsp. baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 C unsalted butter, chilled
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 Tbs. orange juice
  • 1 tsp. vanilla
  • 1/2 tsp. grated orange peel
  • 1/2 C chopped pecans
  • 1 egg white mixed with 1/2 tsp. water for glaze (optional)
Instructions:

Preheat oven to 400. Lightly butter a 10-inch-diameter circle in the center of a baking sheet.

In a small bowl, stir together the cranberries and 2 Tbs. of the sugar. Let stand about 5 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a large bowl, stir together the flour, remaining 1/4 cup sugar, baking powder and salt. Cut the butter into 1/2-inch cubes and distribute them over the flour mixture. With a pastry blender or two knives used scissors fashion, cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In a small bowl, stir together the eggs, juice, vanilla and orange peel. Add the egg mixture to the flour mixture and stir to combine. The dough will be sticky. With lightly floured hands, knead in the cranberry mixture and nuts until evenly distributed. With lightly floured hands, pat the dough into a 9-inch-diameter circle in the center of the prepared baking sheet.

Brush the egg white mixture over the top and sides of the dough, if desired. With a serrated knife, cut into 8 wedges. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until a cake tester or toothpick inserted into the center of a scone comes out clean.

Remove the baking sheet to a wire rack and cool for 5 minutes. Using a spatula, transfer the scones to the wire rack to cool. Recut into wedges, if necessary. Serve warm, or cool completely and store in an airtight container.

Pumpkin Scones

Ingredients:
  • 2 C flour
  • 2-1/2 tsp. baking powder
  • 1 tsp. cinnamon
  • 1-1/2 tsp. pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 C butter
  • 1/3 C plus 2 Tbs. heavy cream, divided
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 C canned pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 C light brown sugar
  • 1 tsp. vanilla

  • 1/4 C unsalted butter
  • 1/4 C pure maple syrup
  • 1 C confectioners' sugar
  • pinch salt, to taste
Instructions:

Preheat oven to 400. Line 1 or 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mat(s). Set aside.

Make the scones: Whisk the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, and salt together in a large bowl. Cut the butter into small pieces and add to the flour mixture. Combine it with a pastry cutter, a fork, or your fingers until the mixture comes together in pea-sized crumbs. Set aside.

Whisk 1/3 C heavy cream, the egg, pumpkin, brown sugar, and vanilla together in a small bowl. Drizzle it over the flour mixture and then mix it all together until everything appears moistened.

With floured hands, work the dough into a ball as best you can and transfer onto a floured work surface. Press into a neat 8-inch disc and, with a very sharp knife, cut into 8 equal wedges.

Place scones at least 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet(s). Using a pastry brush, brush scones with remaining heavy cream.

Bake for 18-20 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes as you prepare the icing.

Make the glaze: In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter and maple syrup together, whisking occasionally. Once the butter has melted, remove from heat and whisk in the sifted confectioners' sugar. Taste and add a pinch of salt if desired. Drizzle over warm scones.

Rosemary Focaccia

Ingredients:
  • 1 1/4oz. pkg. (2-1/2 tsp.) active dry yeast
  • 1/2 tsp. sugar
  • 1 C lukewarm water
  • 3-1/2 C flour
  • 1 tsp. table salt
  • 5 Tbs. olive oil, divided
  • 1/2 tsp. minced garlic
  • 1 Tbs. finely chopped fresh rosemary leaves, or to taste, plus sprigs for garnish
  • 1 tsp. coarse salt, or to taste
Instructions:

In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment proof the yeast with the sugar in water for 5 minutes, or until the mixture is foamy. Add the flour, table salt and 3 tablespoons of the oil, and combine the dough well. With the dough hook knead the dough for 2 minutes, or until it is soft and slightly sticky. Form the dough into a ball, transfer it to an oiled bowl, and turn it to coat with the oil. Let the dough rise, covered with plastic wrap, in a warm place for 1-1/2 hours, or until it is double in bulk. The dough may be made up to this point, punched down, and kept covered and chilled, overnight. Let the dough return to room temperature before proceeding with the recipe. Press the dough evenly into an oiled jelly-roll pan, 15-1/2x10-1/2x1-inches, and let rise, covered loosely, in a warm place for 1 hour, or until it is almost double in bulk.

In a small brown stir together the remaining 2 tablespoons oil, the garlic, and the chopped rosemary. Dimple the dough, making 1/4-inch deep indentations with your fingertips, brush it with the oil mixture, and sprinkle it with the coarse salt. Bake the focaccia in the bottom third of preheated 400 degree oven for 35 to 45 minutes, or until it is golden brown. Let it cool in the pan on a rack and garnish it with the rosemary sprigs. Serve the focaccia warm or at room temperature.
