Houghton Fruit Cobbler
Recipe submiAed by Lauren Fry and Mark Rowe
Crisp top: 1 cup oats 1 cup brown sugar 1/2 cup flour 1/2 tsp cinnamon 1/2 cup buCer 1/2 cup nuts Cake boAom: 2 2/3 cups flour 1 1/3 cups white sugar 4 tsp baking powder salt to taste 1 1/3 cups milk 1/2 cup buCer 2 eggs 2 tsp vanilla Fruit filling: Apples and lemon juice Mix the dry cake ingredients. Add milk, eggs, and melted buCer. Beat some. Pour into a greased 9x13 pan. Put fruit filling on top, and then add the topping. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes. An alternaNve approach we also invented was to subsNtute buCerscotch brownies for the cake dough, but maybe that was going too far.
Biker Dude's Jackfruit Cobbler – SubmiAed by Paul Den Uyl 2 cups fresh or frozen jackfruit, 2 cups fresh pineapple, half a lime, juiced. 2 cups sugar (preferably a liCle less), 1 cup all-purpose flour 1 cup dairy milk 1 sNck of buCer 1 tsp baking powder pinch salt (x2)
Direc`ons: Combine jackfruit, pineapple, lime, one cup sugar (a liCle less), and a pinch of salt then bring to a quick simmer, cooking uncovered unNl the pineapple starts to turn clear, 10 to 15 minutes. Meanwhile melt a sNck of buCer. I put buCer in a 9 by 13 baking dish and turn on the oven to 350. Remove when melted. Meanwhile you have your one cup all purpose flour, one more cup sugar (a liCle less), one teaspoon baking powder and a pinch of salt. Mix dry ingredients with your whisk, then whip in a cup of milk. no need to use an electric mixer. Pour in the baCer on top of the buCer. Do not mix it! just pour on top of the melted buCer evenly....then spoon in your fruit. Do it in big spoonfuls, juice and all. Do not try to put it in evenly. Maybe four big globs that kind of run together. Dust the top with cinnamon before baking. Cook for 1 hour at 350. The baCer will rise up here and there to the top of the cobbler. Let cool a liCle so the juice firms up. PreCy standard recipe for peach cobbler, it was just tweaked here and there. I tried to translate the recipe in easier to read terms. You should see the original :)

Gary’s Favorite Cheese Cake No Bake Handed down from Laura Newlin’s mom. In an 8” x 8” pan: Make graham cracker crust according to direcNons on the box of crackers or crumbs. Baking crust works best. Mix in separate bowls: 1 8 oz cream cheese ¾ C powdered sugar
Beat unNl smooth and creamy. 1 pkg Lucky or Dream Whip Mix according to package direcNons. Blend cheese mixture with Lucky Whip; mix well. Pour on the crust. Top with a can of favorite pie filling. Our favorite is blueberry! Notes: This recipe does not work well if Cool Whip is subsNtuted for Lucky Whip. If making a 9 x 13, double everything except the pie filling topping. One can is sNll enough and two is too much. Can also leave plain and have toppings for guests to choose favorite.

Karaage (Japanese Fried Chicken from Just One Cookbook hCps://www.justonecookbook.com/karaage/ SubmiCed by: Ayumi Fujisaki-Manome (this recipe is two pages long) INGREDIENTS
1.5 lb boneless, skin-on chicken thighs (680 g or 4-6 pieces; Read the blog post) ½ tsp kosher/sea salt (I use Diamond Crystal; Use half for table salt) freshly ground black pepper 2 Tbsp potato starch/cornstarch (Add more if necessary; Read blog post) 2 Tbsp all-purpose flour (plain flour) (Add more if necessary) neutral-flavored oil (vegetable, canola, etc) (for deep frying)
SEASONINGS:
1 knob ginger (You'll only need ½ tsp grated ginger) 1 clove garlic ½ Tbsp soy sauce ½ Tbsp sake (Sub: dry sherry or Chinese rice wine or skip) ½ tsp sesame oil (roasted) GARNISH (OPTIONAL) Lemon (for taste and garnish) Japanese mayonnaise (opNonal for dipping) Shichimi Togarashi (Japanese seven spice) (opNonal for spicy taste)
Karaage (Japanese Fried Chicken from Just One Cookbook: Instruc`ons con`nued PAGE 2 1. Gather all the ingredients.
2. Cut each chicken thigh into 2-inch pieces and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. 3. Grate the ginger (you will only need ½ tsp) and mince the garlic (I use a garlic presser). 4. In a large bowl, combine ginger, garlic, ½ Tbsp soy sauce, ½ Tbsp sake, and ½ tsp sesame oil. Whisk all together. 5. Add the chicken to the bowl and mix with your hands. Cover and keep in the refrigerator to marinate for 30 minutes. 6. Pour the oil to a heavy-boAomed pot (I used a Dutch oven) and heat the oil to 325 ºF (163 ºC) on medium heat. 7. Meanwhile, prepare potato starch and all-purpose flour in a separate pile. 8. First, lightly dredge each chicken piece in the flour and dust off the excess flour. Then dredge the chicken in the potato starch and remove excess starch. 9. Con`nue with the remaining chicken. 10. When the oil temperature has reached 325 ºF (163 ºC) (insert a wooden chops`ck in the oil and see if small bubbles appear around it) gently submerge each chicken piece into the oil. Do not overcrowd; add 3-5 pieces at a `me. If you put many pieces in the oil, the oil temperature will drop quickly and chicken will end up absorbing too much oil. 11. First Deep Frying: Deep fry for 90 seconds, or un`l the outside of the chicken is a light golden color. If the chicken changes color too quickly, then the oil temperature is too high. Either put a few more pieces of chicken in the oil or lower the heat. Controlling oil temperature at all `mes is very important for deep frying. Transfer to a wire rack to drain excess oil. 12. The chicken will con`nue to cook with the remaining heat on the wire rack. Con`nue with the remaining chicken. Between batches, pick up crumbs in the oil with a fine-mesh sieve. This keeps the oil clean and prevents it from becoming darker. 13. 2nd Deep Frying: Now heat the oil to 350 ºF (177 ºC). Deep fry for 45 seconds, or un`l the skin is nice golden color and crispy. Transfer to a wire rack to drain excess oil and con`nue with the remaining chicken. 14. Chicken on the lek is aker the 1st frying and one on the right is aker the 2nd frying. You can see the chicken is slightly darker in color. TO SERVE AND STORE: Serve the chicken hot. Karaage is oken served with a wedge of lemon and Japanese mayo (sprinkle Shichimi Togarashi for a bit of spice). To store, deep fry all the chicken, let cool completely, and keep in an air`ght container. You can store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and in the freezer for up to a month.

Cornbread (The Best) And goes with the Cider Day Chile SubmiAed by Lacey Mason Ingredients for Cornbread: ½ cup cornmeal 1 ½ cups flour 2/3 cups sugar 1 tablespoon baking powder ½ teaspoon salt 1/3 cup oil 3 tablespoons buCer, melted 2 eggs, beaten 1 ¼ cup milk

SNr unNl just mixed (baCer will be runny-don’t be alarmed!) Bake in an 8” square pan at 350 degrees for 35 minutes. This doubles perfectly for a 9x13-inch pan, bake for 47 minutes. 2.

Over the last few years of making the, I’ve toyed with the sugar amount and almost always end up decreasing it (ofen cuung it in half). The cornbread is sNll plenty sweet and delicious.
