Brownies

In a blender add, the eggs, sugar, oil, vanilla, and apples. Blend until smooth.
In a bowl, sift the flour, cocoa powder, salt, baking soda, and baking powder.

Crunchy Sweet Dumplings
23
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon sugar
1 tablespoons corn starch
1 teaspoon oil
1/2 teaspoon cardamom powder
3/4 cup warm water (you may need less, depends on the flour you’re using)
1/2 teaspoon dry yeast
Pinch of saffron
** 2 cups oil for frying
In a blender, add water and then the rest of ingredients. Blend well until you get a combined smooth batter.
Pour in a bowl, cover, and let it double in size in warm place. May take an hour.
In a deep frying pan, add oil and when hot reduce to medium heat.
To test how hot the oil is, take a teaspoon from the batter, and carefully drop it in the oil, if it floats quickly, the oil is too hot.
Dip a spoon in separate oil, then take a heaped teaspoon from batter, push the batter off it using another spoon. Careful while
dropping the batter in oil.
Move the dumplings around using a wooden spoon or spatula, this will make them cook evenly.
When the dumplings are light brown, remove from oil, and place them on kitchen paper.
Pour your favorite syrup on top (I’ve used date syrup). The syrup should be at room temperature.
You should serve these dumplings the same day you make them.
Note: If your dumplings didn’t turn out round shaped, don’t be discouraged, keep on trying and you’ll eventually have round ones.

Orange Waffles
43

In a bowl, add the flour, baking powder, and salt. Whisk well and keep aside.
Beat the egg with oil, vanilla, orange juice, milk, and sugar.

if there were any.
Preheat waffle maker. Use a cooking spray, pastry brush or a paper towel to oil both the top and bottom plates of the waffle
maker. Do so before making each waffle, to prevent it from sticking.
Depending on your waffle machine, pour enough batter, when done serve hot.
