Any Last-Minute DCB Brunch Recipes?

[esavvymom]

I know it's probably too late for my show tomorrow- but I had a last-minute thought about if there are any DCB Brunch recipes. I couldn't find any in the DCB recipe collection.

I've already got a menu in mind- but this host really wants the DCB, so thought it'd be NICE to showcase the DCB in some way besides "take my word for it!"

What about an apple crumb cake? add a little extra cinnamon and it reminds people of cinnamon buns. I'm doing it tomorrow with the ham and cheese brunch squares. I wanted to do something extra to showcase the DCB.

What recipe is that? I can't find it in my usual repertoire of PC recipes/sites. Sounds yummy.

I just preheat oven to 450, pour the dry cake mix on the bottom of the DCB spread a can of apple pie filling on the top, sprinkle with cinnamon, then cut 1 1/2 sticks of butter up and put the pieces all over the top. Microwave for 10 min. Pull it out stir it up mixing thoroughly then cover and microwave for another 3 minutes. Pull out and serve.

Got this from a cluster mate. I've heard it is very good and versatile:

BUILD YOUR OMELETTE
Deep Covered Baker
2 small potatoes
3 pats of butter
Salt and Pepper to taste
8 eggs
Heavy whipping cream or milk
Shredded Cheddar and Monterey Jack Cheeses
Optional: sausage, bacon, ham, onions, peppers, mushrooms, chorizo, asparagus, green chilis, etc.
Toppings and/or Sides: Diced tomatoes, sour cream, etc.

Mince 2 small potatoes into small pieces using Food Chopper.
Place potatoes into the DCB with 3 pats of butter, salt and pepper. Put on the lid and cook for 3 minutes.
Whisk eggs with heavy whipping cream or milk.
When potatoes are fork tender, sprinkle shredded cheddar and Monterey jack cheese on them.
Bake in the microwave for 13 minutes. As soon as it comes out, sprinkle more shredded cheese and put the lid back on to let it melt.

Linda, this sounds great! When would you add the sausage or bacon? I'm thinking with the potatoes so they have time to cook thoroughly?

And I am thinking the eggs go in after the 3 minutes? You say whisk eggs but not when to add them.

Sorry, I haven't made it - it was passed to me, but I heard it was really good. I would think that you would need the meat already cooked before you add it. Yes, the eggs go in after the 3 minutes.

I will ask a few clustermates about this and see who has made it and get their feedback and tips.
