Syrup -- Buttermilk

Ingredients ½ cup butter 1 cup sugar ½ cup buttermilk ½ teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Instructions Melt butter in a medium-large saucepan on low-medium heat. Add sugar, buttermilk, vanilla and mix well and cook for a few minutes. Add baking soda and stir until all combined. Mixture will get foamy and bubble up when done.
Notes STORE buttermilk syrup in an airtight container in the fridge for about 2 weeks. FREEZE. Make a double batch and you'll always have some on hand when you want it. Thaw in the fridge before reheating. To reheat. To make reheating super easy I like to store the syrup in mason jars. Simply remove the lid and microwave for 30-60 seconds. For larger portions, reheat in a saucepan on the stove.

Mother's Day Brunch Eggs

Ingredients Deselect All 6 slices thinly sliced white bread 6 tablespoons unsalted butter Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper 3 tablespoons whole milk 10 large eggs 4 slices bacon, cut into 1/2-inch pieces 4 slices American cheese, roughly chopped Hot sauce, for serving Directions Food Network Kitchen’s Bacon, Egg and Cheese Toast Bowls for Food Network One-Offs, as seen on Food Network. WATCH Watch how to make this recipe. Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F. Roll each piece of bread to thinly flatten. Microwave the butter with a large pinch of salt in a small microwave-safe bowl until melted, about 1 minute. Brush both sides of each slice of bread with the butter. Make the toast bowls: Gently press a slice of bread inside a cup of a 12-cup muffin tin. The bottom and sides of the bread should be flush against the cup; pleat the sides of the bread as needed to fit. Repeat with the remaining bread, filling every other muffin cup so that the bread bowls do not touch. Bake, rotating about halfway through, until lightly browned and crispy in spots, 12 to 15 minutes. Meanwhile, whisk together the milk, eggs, a large pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl. Put the bacon in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the bacon is crispy, 12 to 15 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate. Keep the bacon drippings in the skillet and adjust the heat to low. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Cook the eggs, stirring and scraping the sides of the skillet as needed, until small curds form and the eggs are just set, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and fold in the cheese until almost completely melted. Divide the hot eggs among the toast bowls and top with the crispy bacon. Serve with hot sauce.

Lemon Blueberry Muffins

THE VERY BEST BLUEBERRY MUFFINS yield: 16 MUFFINS prep time: 20MINUTES MINScook time: 16MINUTES MINStotal time: 36MINUTES MINS INGREDIENTS 1 cup (212 g) granulated sugar ½ cup neutral-flavored oil (like vegetable, canola, grapeseed) ½ cup milk or buttermilk 2 large eggs 1 tablespoon fresh lemon zest (see note) 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 2 cups (284 g) all-purpose flour 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder ½ teaspoon salt ¼ teaspoon baking soda 2 cups (340 g) blueberries, fresh or frozen (don't thaw if frozen) 1-2 teaspoons all-purpose flour ⅓ to ½ cup coarse sugar, for topping (optional) INSTRUCTIONS Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line two muffin tins with paper liners or lightly grease with cooking spray (the recipe makes 16 muffins). In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, oil, milk (or buttermilk), eggs, lemon zest, and vanilla until well-combined. Add the flour, baking powder, salt and baking soda and mix until a few dry streaks remain. Don't over mix. Toss the blueberries with the 1-2 teaspoons flour and then add the blueberries and flour to the batter. Stir and fold gently so as not to crush the blueberries. Mix until the batter is just combined. Don't over mix. Fill muffin liners about 2/3 full and sprinkle each muffin with coarse sugar (optional). Bake for 16-18 minutes until the tops spring back lightly to the touch. Remove from the oven and immediately remove the muffins from the tin to cool completely on a wire rack. NOTES Lemon zest: you can leave out the lemon zest if you don't have it on hand, but if you do have it, I encourage you to use it! It adds a very subtle bright lemon note to the muffins. Coarse sugar: the coarse sugar for topping is also optional. I love the craggy/crackly top it gives the muffins. You can use turbinado or regular granulated sugar in place of the coarse sugar.
