We made these for Halloween last year, but we have also made them as bread sticks since and they are yummy! It is my experience that the bread sticks are more bread-ish than crisp but they are really nice with dinner or as a pre-dinner snack
Baked goods
Spider muffins
For years by sister and I has hosted Halloween parties for a group of friends. I love to cook for people so I tend to bake party snacks. Among those are these scary spider muffins. They are muffins with raisins, nuts and apples made to look like spiders by adding licorice strings as legs. They only take half an hour to make and they are yummy. I like the mix of soft and crunchy bits that the apples and nut bits provide.
American Pancakes
American Pancakes are really good, and easy to make! And great for brunch as well as breakfast. I make them when I want to spoil people around me. It takes about 20 minutes to bake the pancakes, so go wake the person you want to spoil up once the batter is ready and you cook them while they are in the shower – perfect.
Easy oatmeal cookies
These oatmeal cookies are the snacks I make when I have nothing in the house and a craving for sweet. Or if friends come over for tea and we need snacks. And they only take 20 minutes to make – start to finish!
You can add nuts, raisins or chocolate chips to the recipe, if you feel a bit more decadent.
Custard filled buns for Carneval
Fastelavnsboller
Fastelavnsboller are traditional buns that are baked for Shrovetide/carnival or “fastelavn” as it is called in Danish. They are supposed to be the part of the big party before lend. Even though nobody upholds lend anymore these buns are widely available in stores and are baked and eaten in February. It is a soft bun filled with custard.
