So Easy Sopapillas

More often than not, I find myself having a leftover sheet of puff pastry in the freezer, lonely and sad just waiting to be used. Lonely puff pastry, meet cinnamon and sugar. Taste buds, meet delight. There couldn't be anything easier to bake up in a pinch or just because.


So Easy Sopapillas

1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon cinnamon
honey to drizzle

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Unfold puff pastry on a lightly floured surface. Using a pastry cutter or knife, cut pastry into squares. The squares can be as big or small as you like. Place cut squares on baking sheet. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes or until golden brown.

Meanwhile, combine sugars and cinnamon in a shallow dish. When golden brown, remove squares from oven and coat each with cinnamon sugar mixture while warm. Drizzle with honey and serve!

Baked Sunday Mornings: Farm Stand Buttermilk Doughnuts

Well I hope you have a cup of coffee handy. You're going to need it. And by need it, I mean crave it. Its the perfect sidekick to this week's Baked recipe, Farm Stand Buttermilk Doughnuts. Surprisingly, these breakfast treats were a cinch to make. The only thing missing was a long conveyor belt that drops the doughnuts into the fryer oh so gently, ala Shipley's Donuts. If you don't have a Shipley's near you, I'm gravely sorry.


Since this recipe results in a cakey doughnut, I decided to go with the cinnamon-sugar topping. Its a personal favorite. These were really good just a few minutes out of the fryer. They weren't as great the second day though, so make sure you have a few people around to help you eat them.

Check out the Baked blog for the recipe!
