Tasty Treat Tuesday: Quick Version Amish Friendship Bread

CinnamonBread2I am so excited about this recipe!  I was in college the first time I tasted Amish Friendship Bread and I was hooked from the start.  For those of you familiar with this kind of bread, you know what a lengthy process it is to make.  If I remember correctly, it is a two week process involving daily squishing, mixing, and separating.  Let’s also not forget all the extra starter bags it yeilds that you then have to find to share with others.  The end result is worth all of that, really it is, but I just don’t have that kind of time right now nor the mental capacity involved in remembering to follow the daily steps for two weeks.  My kids and their schedules occupy pretty much all of my brain power these days.  It is for all these reasons that I am so excited about this recipe for cinnamon bread that tastes just like Amish Freindship Bread!  The best part… it takes less than 2 hours to make it.  Thanks for sharing Redfly Creations!

Here’s what you need to make this:

Batter:
  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 cups buttermilk or 2 cups milk plus 2 tablespoons vinegar or lemon juice
  • 4 cups flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
Cinnamon/sugar mixture:
  • 2/3 cups sugar
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon

Easy Chicken Enchilada Casserole Recipe

easy-chicken-enchilada-casseroleWhen it comes to cooking, I love recipes that are easy and kid friendly and this one definitely fits in both areas!  We love enchiladas, but sometimes I don’t have time to actually roll them and wait for them to cook.  This is a great quick fix for busy nights!  I sometimes will cook the chicken overnight and assemble the casserole before I go to work in the morning so I just have to throw it in the oven when I get home!

Quick and easy enchiladas!
Ingredients
  • 2-3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 large can red enchilada sauce
  • 12 corn tortillas
  • shredded cheese – I use reduced fat

Instructions
  1. Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of a slow cooker and cover with enchilada sauce. Cook on low for 6-8 hours.
  2. Shred chicken breasts.
  3. Pour some enchilada sauce along the bottom of a casserole dish.
  4. Cut corn tortillas in quarter-size pieces (I use a pizza cutter to do this). Place a layer of corn tortillas along the bottom, cover with the sauce and chicken mixture, and then add cheese. Continue layering until you have used all of your tortillas and cheese.
  5. Bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes until the cheese is bubbly. When you remove it from the oven, allow it to set for about 5 minutes and then cut and serve.
