This Baked Pumpkin Custard is quick and perfect to serve during Christmas party or other functions as well. 

You could make your own pumpkin puree by boiling  peeled pumpkin pieces for 8-10 minutes then immediately mash while still hot.   If you are pressed for time just get a can of pumpkin puree from supermarket.

If you are not keen to use fresh milk, replace with coconut milk instead.

PUMPKIN SWEET POTATO GALETTE

 

Pumpkin Sweet Potato Galette Recipe @ treatntrick


Tender, flaky crust and savory, this Pumpkin Sweet Potato Galette can be served as an appetizer or main course for small gatherings.  However, it is served, it is sure to be loved by all.

CRUST

I used all purpose and whole wheat flour for added health benefits.  You could you use all purpose flour entirely for the crust. Replace butter with oil for vegan.

TOPPINGS

The pumpkin and sweet potato  should be sliced thinly so it cooks faster.  They need to be cooked before putting on top of the galette either using microwave for 1 minute or steam for 2 minutes as we need to bake them again for 40 minutes.  After cutting, soak sweet potato in water to avoid discoloration. Create a beautiful pattern for pumpkin and sweet potato atop the sauce if you like.

SAUCE

The mixture of mayo and cream cheese together with paprika, salt, lemon juice and black pepper yield a mild tangy taste and it was seriously delicious.  Add honey if needed but mine done without it.  Use vegan mayo and vegan cashew cream cheese or tofu sour cream if you are a vegan.

My family devoured this rustic Pumpkin Sweet Potato Galette in no time, am so glad there is no leftovers.

MOIST LIGHT FRUIT CAKE

Moist Light Fruit Cake  Recipe @ treatntrick.blogspot.com

After long time, I have baked this Light Fruit Cake  for my family.  As requested again, by  my son, am going to bake his favorite cake.   

Always prefer less sweet and light fruit cake and this Moist Light Fruit Cake has a right balance of mixed fruit and sweetened with brown sugar.   

It is quite easy to make and a real crowd pleaser.  You can eat it anytime of the year not only for Christmas.

Used store bought dry fruit mix or mix your own dried fruit,  coated the fruit mix with flour before adding to the flour mixture. 

As am running out of fruit juice, have added half a cup of isotonic drink.

For eggless version, replace an egg with 1/4 cup plain yogurt or 1/4 cup apple sauce.

Moist Light Fruit Cake bake perfectly for flat 45 minutes and my son can't wait to devour after it came out of oven.  My family gave a thumbs up to this beautiful cake.

HOW TO MAKE CHOCOLATE BROWNIES RECIPE

How to make Chocolate Brownies Recipe @ treatntrick.blogspot.com


How to Make Chocolate Brownies  combine rich cocoa powder with  milk chocolate  to create a  irresistible treat.

It has been months I bake brownies for my family.  They are simple to make by combining dry ingredients in one bowl while whisking the wet ingredients in a separate bowl.

For non cake like brownies, always undercook them a bit so they are moist and gooey.

Let the How to Make Chocolate Brownies  cool  completely before slicing with a thin knife dipped in hot water then wiping dry or use a plastic one to get a smooth evenly cut brownie.   I usually  don't go for all the trouble  since people eat brownies too quickly to care what they look like.

CHOCOLATE CHIP BANANA CAKE RECIPE

Chocolate Chip Banana Cake Recipe @ treatntrick.blogspot.com

Quick and easy Chocolate Chip Banana Cake - thick, moist and loaded with chocolate chip.  I used oil in this recipe to make it lighter.

It uses self rising flour, ripened banana and oil.  In absence of self rising flour, add a teaspoon of baking powder and  half teaspoon of baking soda to plain flour.

Beat the eggs, oil  with sugar using a whisk, no mixer needed.   Add in  banana and vanilla, beat until well incorporated. Gently fold in flour and chocolate chips.

Used  11 x 7 in pan instead of 8 in cake pan.  Chocolate Chip Banana Cake turns out perfect  with  well distributed chocolate chips throughout.

CRISP CHOCOLATE COOKIES RECIPE

Crisp Chocolate Cookies Recipe @ treatntrick.blogspot,com

I always love a simple dessert to go with my cuppa like this Crisp Chocolate  Cookies,

This recipe contains least butter or oil yet they turned out crispy but soft inside.

You can use brown sugar instead of white sugar.   It yields a soft and sticky dough so it requires chilling it for 1 - 2 hours.  Once it became firm,  much easier to  shape them.

It is important to place  Crisp Chocolate Cookies at least 2 inches apart on greased  baking sheet. They really spread and become thinner so adjust the thickness  you want them to be..

PERFECT OATMEAL QUICK BREAD RECIPE

Perfect Oatmeal Quick Bread Recipe @ treatntrick.blogspot.com

Top post on IndiBlogger, the biggest community of Indian Bloggers
This Perfect Oatmeal Quick Bread  is a  super easy, slightly sweet bread loaded with  nutritious rolled oat.

Added just a  quarter cup of sugar since I intend to add dried cranberries.  You may add more if you are not adding any  dried fruit.

Firstly,  I intend to make just a plain oatmeal bread but my hubby requested to add dried cranberries in the dough.

Am so glad this Perfect Oatmeal Quick Bread turned out perfect in texture and sweetness.

In fact the addition of cranberries  eliminate the use of extra butter and jam since this is great to eat on its own.  It is actually a lot easier then what  you think to make your own.   And the results are delicious.

BROKEN GLASS COFFEE JELLY RECIPE

Broken Glass Coffee Jelly Recipe @ treatntrick.blogspot.com

Top post on IndiBlogger, the biggest community of Indian Bloggers
After many years, I have prepared this cold dessert but this time with different flavor. .

Using agar agar powder, this Broken  Glass Coffee Jelly was fun to make with proper planning.

It consists of 2 parts, coffee jelly that uses instant coffee in it.  This  coffee part must be prepared first as to allow it to cool and cut into 1/2 in cube.

Used a pack of agar agar powder, divide equally to make this Broken Jelly Coffee Jelly.  Once you have  coffee jelly ready. proceed to make milk mixture.

You can always opt for 2 or more flavors like orange, strawberry, pineapple instead of coffee

During the process, I have discovered a vital step to remove the jelly smoothly.   The secret was to apply a thin coating of vegetable oil before pouring over the cubed jelly.  The 10 x 6 in glass tray was perfect for this recipe.

Cranberry Bread Recipe @ treatntrick.blogspot.com
Top post on IndiBlogger, the biggest community of Indian Bloggers
Enjoy freshly baked Cranberry Bread  in this tender quick bread.

This delicious bread is made with plenty of dried cranberries and nut free.  Like most of quick bread recipe,  no mixer is needed, it is simply mix and stir all the ingredients.

For successful  quick breads. DO NOT OVER MIX.  Once they are combined,  mix as little as possible.  The mixture will contain some lumps.  The result is a soft, tender, cake-like texture.

Added half a cup of sugar and that was sufficient to sweeten this bread.  You  may add more if you like.  Just add one large egg instead of 2 small one.

Cranberry Bread turns out  wonderfully soft with right amount of sweetness.  It was a cross between cake and bread.  It does not need any frosting, we love to eat them just it is with  a cuppa.
