7Up Bread (quick recipe!)

7Up Bread.

It's so delicious! Me and my mom sat around this pan of bread, and shamelessly ate a row of it.

Ok, so that wasn't healthy. But, I this recipe is great, and even better, it's sweet! It's almost a breakfast bread.

Here is what you need besides an oven, pan and bowl:

  • 1/4 Cup of butter (usually half a stick)
  • 1/2 Cup 7Up
  • 1/2 Cup Sour Cream
  • 2 Cups Bisquick Mix


Instructions:

preheat oven to 450 degrees (um, does anyone know where the degree symbol is on a PC?)

Melt butter and mix ingredients and spread in pan. (mine was 9x9x11) spread the dough as far as you can.  (It will be really thin, but don't worry, it fluffs up like you wouldn't believe!)

Optional: you can use extra butter and just run it over the top of the bread to give the crust and extra flavor oomph.

The recipe that was given to me didn't have a time. It ended up being around....15 minutes? Start with seven minutes and go from there. Sorry for the vague time, I just went minutes my minutes and checked on it.

Either way, this bread is delicious! Now, if you use Bisquick for pancakes, the bread at first will taste like pancakes, but eventually that flavor seems to fade and it just tastes fabulous!

You could do so many things with this recipe. You could use it with jam, or spread for breakfast....you could use it with soup....anything!

Southern Style Honey Butter




Guys,

I adore honey butter....but the only time I really had it, was at my local Roadhouse Grill.

Which is all well and good but that means I also have a lot of other food.

So what if I had a healthy meal, with a little bit of indulgence in the form of a roll/piece of bread and honey butter?

This recipe is SO EASY.

All you need:

  • Blender
  • 1/2 cup (usually one stick) of butter
  • 2 Tablespoons Honey (or until taste)
  • 2 Tablespoons of Sweetened Condensed Milk
The Butter is easiest to work with when its softened and chopped. (if you use microwave, make sure it doesn't liquify.)

Add Sweetened Condensed Milk and Honey (you may want to start with 1 Tablespoon. 2 Tablespoons might be too sweet for some people's tastes.

Blend.


VOILA!
