Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Cream scones

    • MarciK on April 27, 2020

      These had a crisp exterior and a pleasantly moist interior, which I prefer over the dry scones you find around here. I added instant espresso powder and chocolate chunks to mimic the mocha scones I buy at my local coffee shop. Also, I was a little short on cream, so I added milk, which had no negative effect. This recipe contains no butter, and it certainly isn’t needed here. If you want to make this for breakfast, plan ahead. It needs to be froze a couple hours so that you can cut them.

  • Chocolate chip pancakes

    • JKDLady on August 31, 2015

      I needed to add a lot more flour to make this into a batter that wouldn't run together. The taste was good, and they were fluffy, but something just wasn't right. I should try this again.

  • Caramelized onion quiche

    • Rinshin on January 09, 2024

      Creamy textured quiche using only 3 eggs . We loved this texture compared to more firm quiche. Added few pieces of cooked applewood bacon pieces and asparagus cooked in bacon fat. Used already cooked and frozen caramelized onion I normally keep in portions so very little cooking was required. Photo added. Recipe found at https://www.ciafoodies.com/caramelized-onion-quiche/

  • Semolina pizza dough

    • Shewi128 on July 16, 2022

      Nothing memorable, but a decent pizza crust. I let it rise in the fridge overnight, and I took it out a few hours to warm up on the counter. The dough was a little bready after cooking on a baking stone. I don't know if I'd make it again as it caused my stand mixer to overheat while kneading.

  • Chilled asparagus with mustard herb vinaigrette

    • Shewi128 on April 06, 2021

      The vinaigrette was too thin and didn't cling to asparagus. Will not make again.

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Yet, for many people breakfast consists of a cup of coffee and a donut on the way out the door. The CIA's Breakfasts and Brunches shows you how to prepare everything from classic favorites such as Buttermilk Pancakes, Banana Bread, and Biscuits with Sausage Gravy, to sumptuous brunch fare like Smoked Cheddar and Thyme Muffins or Grilled Quail with Avocado, Tomato, and Corn Salad. Chapters on sweet and savory breads and pastries, egg dishes, grains and legumes, even breakfast drinks, help you handle any meal situation from family breakfasts on a weekday morning to the most elaborate Sunday brunch.
