It’s always been one of my New Year’s Resolutions to learn to cook, to cook more meals for my family, to try and make new things for dinners . . . this year my resolution is a bit different.
This year, I say, to heck with that resolution and just embrace the fact that my cooking skills are limited to those of a third grader.
It’s a good thing that I subscribe to some fabulous food blogs that from time to time feature recipes for amateurs such as myself.
Last month, uber-food blogger Smitten Kitchen, blogged a recipe for Cinnamon Brown Butter Breakfast Puffs.
In the intro, she states that she made these in 7th grade Home Economics class. That was all I needed to read. I figure that if a bunch of twelve years old can bake these things, than I can too.

It’s an easy recipe to follow and result is dangerously tasty. I had to impose a one-puff maximum on myself, or else I could have easily eaten the entire batch. The boys enjoyed them as dessert because I think that they are a little too decadent for breakfast. Paired with a vanilla ice cream, they are a winning combination for your next dinner party.
Next time I make these I am going to add a dollop of sour cream to the batter. Or maybe even some cut-up apple. I imagine that variations to the simple batter can be easily executed.
On second thought, maybe I should just stick with the recipe.
