Hollieanna Groves Key Limes

I have been making these for years but just recently discovered our local Central Florida Maitland grove store – Hollieanna Groves – carries their own fresh key limes. So, I now use these wonderful little fruits in this very popular and yummy recipe -

Key Lime Muffins

2C flour, 1C sugar, 1T baking powder, 1/3C milk, 2 eggs, 1/4C oil, 1t lime rind grated & 1/4C fresh key lime juice

Combine dry ingredients; make a well. Combine wet ingredients; pour into the dry ingredients well. Stir until just moistened and mixed….don’t over mix! Bake in muffin tins at 375 degrees for 15-18 minutes…..ENJOY!

Book your room now and request this special breakfast treat, or stop by Holieanna Groves where they proudly give out recipe cards with this on it.

I was going to blog something else today, but I received a call last night from a friend of over 50 (yikes!) years. His Mom just passed away from a massive stroke. She was a tough old Swede and went out fighting for sure. They were our next door neighbors in Massachusetts for many years. Anyway, I often make her recipe for omelet and will do so this morning for my Thurston House guests – lucky them!

Stina’s Omelet

4 eggs, 3/4C flour, 2C milk or 1/2+1/2, various meats, various veggies, shredded cheese

Spray a 10″ cast iron pan with PAM. Sprinkle a variety of cubed meat and/or veggies on the bottom of the pan. Sprinkle shredded cheese over, to taste. Whisk the eggs, then the flour; whisk until well blended. Add the milk and whisk until blended. Pour over the other mix. Bake 400 degrees for 30 minutes, or until puffed and slightly browned. Best right out of the oven. ENJOY! I better get going in the kitchen now….
