breakfast goodies for united church

Every year, Paul's preschool hosts a thank-you tea for the congregation of the church that allows the preschool to use their space. This year, I am making the goodies!

I was going to bake a bunch of cupcakes, but then I thought, "Who wants to eat cupcakes at 9 in the morning?" Well, I actually have eaten cupcakes at 9 in the morning...but isn't it tastier to have some breakfasty goods?? (I did make some cupcakes though, ha ha!)

You betcha!
On with it!

Started with an empty cupcake liner.


I made two kinds of cupcakes. Brown velvet (which is red velvet without the food coloring!) and sour cream apple cinnamon. OK so that one is kind of my own creation.

Brown velvet just out of the oven:

Apples & Cinnamon in a frying pan:


Apples & Cinnamon frying in a pan can you smell it:



Oh! I also bought a new baking pan. It's a muffin pan but it makes only muffin tops! (in more ways than one, ha ha)


here are the muffin tops before the oven:


just baked:


and the side view so you can see how tall they are:


I also made mini-cinnies! (miniature cinnamon rolls)






mmmmmmmmmm I love cinnamon rolls!




Here is a pic of the box I am sending to the church. It has the mini-cinnies and also some single serving coffee cakes. I didn't take any other pics of the coffee cakes but you can get the gist...moody shot.


I haven't frosted the cupcakes yet. Or the muffin tops. Will take pics of those after I'm done! I hope everyone likes them and they get eaten! :)

The best part? Seeing my boys enjoying them!




Here are pics of the frosted cupcakes & muffin tops. I just finished frosting them this morning so that they were freshly frosted. This caramel glaze is delicious!
