Mimi's Giant Whole-Wheat Banana-Strawberry Muffins

Reviewed: Sep. 3, 2008
Changes made: substituted regular vanilla yoghurt for applesauce, added 1 cup of chopped pecans, 1/2 cup of oatmeal, omitted cinnamon, and only used 2 largish bananas. Great results! I love allrecipes.com because I get to read all the ratings and adjust accordingly. Thanks all!

Pizza Dough I

Reviewed: Aug. 30, 2008
Good, easy recipe. I dissolve the yeast in the warm water before adding the rest of the ingredients. I also prefer whole-wheat flour and I cook the rolled out dough for 10 mins. before adding the toppings and cooking an additional 10 or so minutes.

German Apple Pancake

Reviewed: Aug. 23, 2008
Tasty, but eggy - more than normal "German" or Dutch-baby pancakes I've had before. Also way too much nutmeg! Probably won't make again unless I cut back on both the egg and the nutmeg.

Hamburger Vegetable Soup

Reviewed: Aug. 23, 2008
Great starter recipe. You can do so much with it and not mess it up! I used ground turkey instead of hamburger. My whole family really liked this recipe.

Bacon Gravy for Biscuits

Reviewed: Aug. 23, 2008
This was okay and I did appreciate the idea, however my gravy was lumpy when I followed the directions as cited. I usually mix a little milk with the flour before I add it to the drippings when I make regular gravy. I do think this is a more "by feel" recipe as others have stated. Also, make sure you have lots of grease, four strips might not be enough.

Wonderful! I won't make it often however because I ate most of it by myself. . .

Perfect White Bread

Reviewed: Sep. 12, 2007
I've made other types of breads before (like sweet breads/rolls and pizza crusts), but this is my first attempt at an everyday loaf of plain bread... and I've gotta say, this is fantastic! I used just shy of the entire 6 cups of flour, and it came out perfectly. Like another reviewer, though, after the second 1 hour raise, during which I left the rising dough in the oven (off, of course), I turned the oven on, just leaving it in there, to 375F. I baked for approximately 28 minutes, and it was perfectly cooked. I'll be making this a LOT more! Thanks so much!

Whipped Shortbread Cookies

Reviewed: Dec. 29, 2006
This is the easiest recipe I've pulled from here by far! I got a little side tracked, and I left my Kitchen-Aid going for about 20 minutes on setting 4, and my batter came out lighter than most icings I make. The cookies are delicious and buttery, and they're incredibly delicate. I made these to send to a friend to put my homemade lemon curd on, and I have no doubt he will LOVE them. Thanks so much! ***Edit*** PS: I've read some people have problems with them not puffing up in the oven. Mine had no problem, and, while they weren't perfectly round like in the photo, they got significantly taller, and even more airy. Perhaps it was my unintentional extra whipping?

Easy Lemon Cookies

Reviewed: Dec. 28, 2006
This is DELICIOUS! I made these this evening to ship to a friend, and, I have to say, these might not make it! My friend LOVES lemon flavoured things, so, to kick it up a bit, I added very fine zest from 2 lemons. Also, after they were baked, I sifted more powdered sugar on top. Again, these are wonderful! Thank you so much for clue-ing me in to how these delicious cookies are made!

Mom's Yeast Rolls

Reviewed: Jan. 4, 2007
This recipe is, by far, the worst recipe I've pulled from this site. These rolls are NOT light and fluffy, and they will NOT melt in your mouth. Twice I tried to this recipe today. Once I followed the recipe precisely as written, the second time, I allowed the rolls to rise for 45 minutes after they were placed on the pans to bake. Both times I came out with rocks.
