I have a host that wants a brunch theme. I found a flyer for a Pancake & Mimosa Theme Party. She loves that idea. I need some recipe ideas. Side items to go with the pancakes. Some sort of dip maybe. On the flyer is Chocolate Coffee Latte from Casual Cooking. If someone has that recipe can they post it? Thanks Laura
 
I did the caramel pecan pull apart bread for a brunch show I did a week ago. Its a nice way to show off the cookware. I also did an omlet in the rectangular baker to go with it.

Would you please share BOTH recipes?
 
I've done 2!1 had the Bountiful Brunch pizza and the other had the Ham-cheddar croissant bake and fruit coffee cake. They were all hits!
Next weekend I am doing the Fluted Cinn bread and the ham cheddar bake again! I also did the cinn. bites as a side kick to the first one and everyone raved about them!

I love brunch shows!

Preheat oven to 350. Melt butter in Small Sauté Pan on stovetop, over medium heat—add ingredients, except biscuits, and sauté until softened, 1 to 2 minutes. Using Utility Knife, cut biscuits into quarters. Add all the biscuits to the pan, toss with butter mixture, immediately put in oven and bake 18-20 minutes.

7 large mushrooms, sliced with egg slicer
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

Apple Ring Pancakes
Ingredients:
1 Granny Smith apple
1 cup pancake mix (any type)
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup milk
1 egg
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Butter and maple-flovored syrup

Directions:
1. Peel, core, and slice apple using Apple Peeler/Corer/Slicer. Cut into rings; set aside. Combine pancake mix, cinnamon, milk, egg, and oil in Classic Batter Bowl, mixing just until moistened.

2. Heat Square Griddle over medium heat until hot; grease lightly. Place one apple ring on griddle. Slowly pour scant 1/4 cup batter over apple ring, starting in center of apple ring. (Use just enough batter to cover each ring.) Repeat with additional apple rings and batter.

3. Cook until bubbles begin to appear on surface. Turn with Nylon Turner; cook other side until golden brown. Serve pancakes with butter and maple-flavored syrup.

Yield: 10-12 pancakes
