Pizza is an all-time favorite of mine, because there are so many different combinations you could have. I have wanted to make a breakfast pizza for a while and knew #BrunchWeek would be the perfect time to post. This pizza had to be extra special for this week, and luckily we have Michigan Asparagus and Red Star Yeast as sponsors this year.

Asparagus, Egg & Prosciutto Brunch Pizza from LoveandConfections.com #BrunchWeek #sponsored

I used an ricotta with herbs and cheese as a base, sliced asparagus, eggs and prosciutto to top it off. It is the perfect bite of crunchy, creamy, salty, gooey – basically everything you want in a good pizza. The crust uses Red Star Yeast Platinum Yeast, which gives it a great rise. The recipe I used makes enough dough for 2 pizzas, so I froze the second one for later.

When I brunch, I love having mimosas. Endless mimosas are great when I brunch out, but mimosa bars at home are even better. I love having options to pair with champagne, and mimosa bars are the best way to please everybody.

My favorite flavors are “Flamingo” – orange juice, cranberry juice and champagne, pineapple juice and champagne, or peach juice and champagne. A variety of juices is key, as are a variety of fruit garnishes. I almost always have orange slices, berries, and peach slices. Any combination of fruit is guaranteed to look gorgeous.

Mimosa Bar from LoveandConfections.com #BrunchWeek #sponsored

Whether you like champagne, prosecco, or any other variety of sparkling wine, make sure it is nicely chilled and you have enough on hand. I usually keep a few in a large ice bucket once my brunches start, and guests can help themselves.

Mimosa Bar from LoveandConfections.com #BrunchWeek #sponsored

Glassware is important. I love champagne flutes, and prefer stemless for parties – I think it’s just easier both for display, ease of use and in cleaning. You can use real glass or nowadays get some pretty real looking plastic ones too. I always have fun straws on hand to add to my mimosa bar. Straws are a great way to tie in your theme or color scheme. Whichever you prefer, always keep it classy, and have fun!

Today is day 6 of #BrunchWeek – the final day to enter our huge BrunchWeek giveaway! I have had so much fun creating delicious recipes for you for this year’s BrunchWeek. Thank you to my co-hostess Christie from A Kitchen Hoor’s Adventure! I hope you had a chance to take a peek at my recipes this past week. I made a Green Tea Mojito, Lemon Meringue Angel Food Cake, Everything Bagel Rolls, Blueberry Salad with Green Onion Poppy Seed Dressing, The Perfect Cheddar Cheese Board with Balsamic Onion Jam, and today’s recipe Oatmeal Walnut Waffles with Fried Apples.

Oatmeal Walnut Waffles with Fried Apples by LoveandConfections.com #BrunchWeek

My mom suggested I make this recipe, because she fell in love with an oatmeal waffle recipe on a trip to New York. We made a few tweaks and added walnuts, and these are pretty darn good. I love the crunch from the walnuts, and the fried apples on top are such a treat.

Sage Fruit sent me some of their delicious Breeze apples, which is a new variety that originated in New Zealand. Sage Fruit is exclusively growing them in Washington State and introducing them to the US markets.

Oatmeal Walnut Waffles with Fried Apples by LoveandConfections.com #BrunchWeek

I also used my handy tools from KitchenIQ when making this recipe. The Better Zester is one of my favorite microplanes. It creates such a fine and delicate grate, and I used it to zest an orange for the apples. I also used my Nesting Measuring Spoons. I am always using multiple measuring spoons in recipes, or misplacing them, and I love that these stack perfectly and are narrow enough to fit into tiny spice jars. I could probably use a couple more sets, just to make sure I always have them ready for a recipe.

The Perfect Cheddar Cheese Board with Balsamic Onion Jam #BrunchWeek

Create an unforgettable appetizer or snack with my instructions on how to make the perfect cheddar cheese board. Plus, I created an amazing Balsamic Onion Jam that pairs nicely with the cheeses.

The Perfect Cheddar Cheese Board with Balsamic Onion Jam by LoveandConfections.com #BrunchWeek


Welcome to day 5 of #BrunchWeek! The week is almost over, so I had to share one of my favorite appetizers – a cheese board. Cheese boards can be glamorous, elegant, and over the top, or simply styled and satisfyingly delicious. There is such a variety of ingredients that there is something for everyone. An assortment of cheeses, meats, spreads, crackers, fruits, nuts, and much more come together to form a delicious appetizer or snack.

The Perfect Cheddar Cheese Board with Balsamic Onion Jam by LoveandConfections.com #BrunchWeek

Cheese: I had so much fun making this cheese board! Cabot Cheese sent me so many different and delicious cheddar varieties that I had a hard time deciding what I wanted to use. I chose Seriously Sharp Cheddar, Tomato Basil Cheddar, and Chipotle Cheddar – a little something for everyone – and they all were different colors for variety. Three cheeses is a good starting point, since you want to leave room for all the other goodies.
Crackers: Next, I wanted different textures for the crackers so I chose a traditional water cracker, a wafer cracker, and thinly sliced crusty bread. You can toast your bread to give it a nice char. Grissini breadsticks are also a fun addition to boards.
The Perfect Cheddar Cheese Board with Balsamic Onion Jam by LoveandConfections.com #BrunchWeek

Spreads: Spreads are always fun for a cheese board, and when presented in jars or bowls, it gives height and color to your board. A mix of sweet and savory is good, so it appeals to different guests. Jam, compote, and marmalade are good options, and readily available at stores. Balsamic Onion Jam is absolutely delicious, easy to make, and perfect for a savory addition to some crusty bread. I use a mandolin to evenly and quickly slice the onions, and the KitchenIQ Better Zester to grate the garlic right into the pan.

The Perfect Cheddar Cheese Board with Balsamic Onion Jam by LoveandConfections.com #BrunchWeek

Honeycomb is a must for me when it comes to cheese boards. Once you have honey with cheese, you never go back. It is delicious, and pairs beautifully with many different kinds of cheeses.

Fruit and Nuts: I made a sweet nut recipe and a savory nut recipe, because I like variety. Spiced pecans are a family favorite and made constantly during the holidays. Thyme fried almonds are a twist on my favorite wine bar snack of salted marcona almonds. Salty, crunchy and herbaceous is a great blend of flavors for any cheese board.

Blueberry Salad with Green Onion-Poppy Seed Dressing #BrunchWeek #FWCon #BlueberryToss

Blueberry Salad with Green Onion-Poppy Seed Dressing is a family favorite. The salad has bright, bold flavors and colors, and the tangy dressing pairs perfectly with the sweet blueberries and oranges.

Blueberry Salad with Green Onion-Poppy Seed Dressing by LoveandConfections.com #BrunchWeek #FWCon #BlueberryToss


Welcome to day 4 of #BrunchWeek. My aunt introduced me to this salad. It is usually present at family gatherings, including brunch, and I love its versatility. You can definitely customize it with different fruits, vegetables and nuts, depending on the season. Blueberry season just started here in Florida, and we have already been out in the field picking blueberries. Well, I did the picking, #ToddlerLnC showed me every blueberry she picked, faked me out thinking she would put it in our bucket, then popped it into her mouth. Every. Time… toddlers…

Blueberry Salad with Green Onion-Poppy Seed Dressing by LoveandConfections.com #BrunchWeek #FWCon #BlueberryToss

What I love most about this salad is that I am able to enter it into the #Blueberry Toss contest for the Food Wine Conference. The conference is less than 2 weeks away and I can hardly wait. One of the conference sponsors is Wish Farms – a Florida Strawberry and Blueberry grower. They tasked us to create an original recipe that includes at least 1 serving of blueberries.

Blueberry Salad with Green Onion-Poppy Seed Dressing by LoveandConfections.com #BrunchWeek #FWCon #BlueberryToss

I know that this recipe is a favorite in my family, and with some tweaks of my own, this is the perfect salad for any family event – especially brunch. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

Everything Bagel Rolls #BrunchWeek

Everything Bagel Rolls are a perfect brunch accompaniment. The everything bagel spice mix is delicious on the soft homemade rolls. Serve warm with whipped cream cheese for a spin on the classic.


Welcome to day 3 of #BrunchWeek! I am co-hosting this year’s #BrunchWeek with A Kitchen Hoor’s Adventures, and the brunch recipes keep getting better by the day! When I brunch, there is usually a carb involved – I’m a total “carbivore”. Sometimes it’s in the form of pancakes, waffles, toast, etc. While I do love bagels, they sometimes are too heavy when accompanied by a variety of food for brunch. These Everything Bagel Rolls are my answer to wanting the delicious everything bagel taste, but in a soft, pillowy roll.

Everything Bagel Rolls by LoveandConfections.com #BrunchWeek

I have a mason jar with my everything spice mix and I plan on baking a few different kinds of bread so I can use it all. Speaking of bread, I love Red Star Yeast. It is my favorite yeast to use – I have used it in culinary school, in my home kitchen, and in the bakery. It is high quality and consistent, making bread-baking a whole lot easier. RedStarYeast.com has so many delicious recipes and I want to bake every one!

Everything Bagel Rolls by LoveandConfections.com #BrunchWeek

When these rolls were baking, the whole house smelled delicious. I had to have one while it was warm, and smeared on some whipped cream cheese. It would also be great with butter and your favorite jam! These rolls are sure to be a hit at your next brunch!

5. Grease 2-3 9-inch cake pans and arrange the dough balls in them. Cover with a tea towel and let it rise for 1 hour. Near the end of the rise, heat the oven to 425F.
6. In a bowl or jar, combine all the ingredients for the spice mix. Lightly brush the tops of the rolls with the egg wash and sprinkle the everything bagel spice mix on.
7. Bake the rolls for 20-25 minutes, until golden brown on top, and cooked inside. If necessary, place a piece of foil over each pan, halfway through baking, to prevent topping from burning. Enjoy

Until next time,
LOVE & CONFECTIONS!

Lemon Meringue Angel Food Cake #BrunchWeek

Light and lemony angel food cake with fresh lemon curd and lemon-scented meringue is the perfect addition to any brunch or Mother’s Day menu!

Lemon Meringue Angel Food Cake from LoveandConfections.com #BrunchWeek


Welcome to day 2 of #BrunchWeek! My family has a love of lemon desserts. My mom’s favorite is lemon meringue pie. Instead of creating a pie, I opted to make an angel food cake, which was one of my grandmother’s favorite desserts – creating a delicious combination of the two.

Lemon Meringue Angel Food Cake from LoveandConfections.com #BrunchWeek

My mom and grandmother have been an inspiration to me throughout my whole life. I learned to love cooking from being in the kitchen with them. We baked bread, made cookies, and cooked meals together. I am fortunate to be able to cook with my mom on a near daily basis. I miss my grandmother terribly, but she is still with us in spirit – especially since #ToddlerLnC is named after her.

Angel food cake is very easy to make, even though lots of people think otherwise. The hardest part is sifting the ingredients – and that isn’t hard at all. Homemade lemon curd makes all the difference – fresh, sweet, and slightly tart, I use this curd in parfaits, crepes, or just eat it with a spoon.

My friends over at Nielsen-Massey Vanillas gifted me with a bottle of their Pure Lemon Extract and Pure Orange Extract. I used the lemon extract in both the cake and meringue. The hint of lemon in fluffy, toasted meringue is subtle and luxurious.

Cake adapted from Allrecipes
Lemon Curd and Meringue a Love and Confections original recipe

Lemon Meringue Angel Food Cake Ingredients:
For the Lemon Curd :
– 100 grams Lemon Juice
– 60 grams Unsalted Butter, room temperature
– 60 grams Dixie Crystals Granulated Sugar (first measurement)
– 60 grams Dixie Crystals Granulated Sugar (second measurement)
– 12 grams Corn Starch
– 150 grams large Eggs, roughly 3

Angel Food Cake Ingredients:
– 1 & 1/4 cups Cake Flour
– 1 & 3/4 cups Dixie Crystals Extra Fine Granulated Sugar
– 1/4 teaspoon Salt
– 1 & 1/2 cups Egg Whites, liquid measure roughly 10-11 large eggs
– 1 teaspoon Cream of Tartar
– 1/2 teaspoon Almond Extract
– 1/2 teaspoon Nielsen-Massey Pure Lemon Extract

Lemon Meringue Ingredients:
– 4 large egg whites
– 1 cup Dixie Crystals Extra Fine Granulated Sugar
– 1/8 teaspoon Cream of Tartar
– 1/4 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
– 1/4 teaspoon Nielsen-Massey Pure Lemon Extract


Lemon Meringue Angel Food Cake Directions:
Lemon Curd Directions:
1. In a medium saucepan, combine the Lemon Juice, Unsalted Butter and first measurement of Sugar. Whisk to combine and cook on medium to medium-high until sugar has dissolved and mixture is just simmering.
2. Right before the liquids boil, whisk together the second measurement of Sugar, Corn Starch and Eggs in a bowl big enough to hold the liquid and egg mixtures.
3. Temper the eggs: slowly pour the hot liquid, in a small stream, into the bowl while constantly whisking the eggs. Pour the mixture back into the pan and heat on the stove until it is thick and almost boiling.
4. With a sieve, strain the curd into a clean bowl to insure no overcooked eggs get into the curd. Place plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the curd and let it cool for 30 minutes on the counter, then refrigerate it until it is thoroughly chilled. Can be made a day before use. Can be stored for up to 3 days in the refrigerator. Makes 2-3 cups.


Angel Food Cake Directions:
1. Sift together Cake Flour, Sugar and Salt. Repeat 5 times.
2. In the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with the whip attachment, beat the Egg Whites until foamy. Add the Cream of Tartar, Almond Extract and Lemon Extract and whip until medium peaks. Gently fold in the dry ingredients, making sure it is all combined without deflating the whites
3. Pour batter into an ungreased 10-inch tube pan and place in a cold oven. Heat oven to 325F and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until golden brown and skewer comes out clean when inserted into the center of the cake.
4. Invert cake, while in pan, and allow it to cool completely upside down. Once cool, remove from pan.


Lemon Meringue Directions:
1. Create a double boiler by placing a saucepan with water on the stove, making sure the bottom of your stand mixer bowl does not touch the surface of the water.
2. Place egg whites and sugar into the bowl of your stand mixer and whisk almost constantly while on the double boiler, until the eggs are warm and the sugar has completely dissolved.
3. Place the bowl on the mixer and whip until foamy. Add in the Cream of Tartar, Vanilla Extract and Lemon Extract. Whip on high until stiff peaks form.

Assembly:
1. With large serrated knife, cut cake in half horizontally. Spread an even amount of lemon curd on the cut surface, then place the top layer back on.
2. With an offset spatula, spread the meringue over the cake, covering it completely. With a kitchen torch, carefully toast the meringue. Serve immediately or refrigerate up to one day. Enjoy!

Green Tea Mojitos #BrunchWeek

Green Tea Mojitos are a refreshing twist on the classic sweet tea and traditional mojito. Mint, simple syrup, and lime juice blend perfectly with the green tea for a fabulous cocktail, or mocktail

Green Tea Mojitos by LoveandConfections.com #BrunchWeek

Welcome to day 1 of #BrunchWeek! My co-hostess, A Kitchen Hoor, and I are so excited for all the Brunch recipes this week. We have a great group of bloggers, amazing sponsors, and fabulous prize packages! all 37 bloggers are sharing delicious recipes today, and you can see them all at the end of the post. Apparently it has become tradition for me to start of #BrunchWeek with a cocktail, so I created these Green Tea Mojitos for the occasion.

Green Tea Mojitos by LoveandConfections.com #BrunchWeek

I love mojitos, and it’s always fun to put a twist on the classic and glam it up a bit. I was inspired to create this recipe from a little Cuban food truck at my local farmer’s market. They serve the best Cuban Sandwiches and Tea Mojitos. I searched and searched for a recipe so I could re-create it at home, but had no luck; so I created my own.

Green Tea Mojitos by LoveandConfections.com #BrunchWeek

This mojito is very easy to make and perfect for a warm day. During the Spring and Summer, I have a small herb garden on my patio, and using fresh mint is the key. There is so much flavor and brightness that fresh mint adds to any dish or drink. This would be the perfect drink for a beverage dispenser at a party, just keep the rum on the side as an option, in case there are kids or party-goers who don’t want it.

Prize #4 Vidalia Onion Committee is giving one winner a Martha Stewart Knife Set, cast iron fry pan, cutting board, and fresh Vidalia Onions

About Vidalia Onions: Vidalia onions are unique to a very small region. In fact, they only grow within 20 counties in Georgia (which is also why they are the official state vegetable of Georgia)! Vidalia onions were discovered back in 1930’s, and just like back then, they are still planted, transplanted and harvested entirely all by hand! Vidalia onions are grown during the winter months, and are only available in stores between April and September, making them a true seasonal specialty. In order to grow great tasting Vidalias, and to give them their characteristic sweetness, they must be grown in a sandy soil mixture that is low in sulfur (sulfur in soil is what gives onions their hotness). Because of this sweet flavor, Vidalia onions are incredibly versatile and can be used in any sort of dish; grilling, baking, appetizers, sandwiches, casseroles, and yes, even sweet desserts. Each year, approximately 5-million 40-pound boxes are shipped out around the entire country – now that’s a lot of onions!
