Equipment

Making a delicious batch of salted pecan brownies doesn't require a lot of fancy equipment. All you need is an 8 x 8-inch baking dish, a mixing bowl, a whisk, a rubber spatula, a wooden spoon, a baking sheet, parchment paper, an oven mitt, and an oven.

To begin, preheat the oven to 350°F. Then, you'll need to prepare the ingredients for the salted pecan brownies. Start by mixing all of the dry ingredients in a bowl with a whisk. Once the dry ingredients are blended, add the wet ingredients and mix them all with a wooden spoon.

Next, you'll need to get the baking dish ready. Line it with parchment paper and lightly grease it with butter or cooking spray. Pour the brownie batter into the 8 x 8-inch baking dish and spread it out evenly. Sprinkle a generous handful of salted pecans over the top of the batter, and then place the baking dish in the oven. Bake the salted pecan brownies for 15-20 minutes, or until they are golden brown.

Once the brownies are done, it’s time to make the topping. Start by melting the butter and brown sugar together in a small saucepan. Add the pecans and stir until the caramel is thick and bubbly. Pour the topping over the brownies and sprinkle with sea salt. Let the brownies cool before cutting into slices and serving. Enjoy your Salted Pecan Pie Brownies with a scoop of vanilla or your favorite ice cream or a drizzle of chocolate syrup. Enjoy!

Which yeast is best for cinnamon rolls + how to know when yeast is activated

The key to success is using the right type of yeast. Active dry yeast is the best choice for this recipe. To ensure that the yeast is activated, look for bubbles forming on the surface of the mixture. You will pre-check this after adding the yeast to water in this recipe. Once the yeast is activated, the mixture will expand and become foamy. If your mixture does not foam, the yeast may be old or not activated properly. To avoid disappointment, always check the expiration date on your yeast package before using it. With the right yeast and a few simple steps, you can enjoy delicious pumpkin cinnamon rolls with cream cheese icing in no time.

Making Ahead, Storing, and Freezing Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls:

Allow the rolls to cool completely before freezing. Wrap each one individually in plastic wrap and place them in a freezer bag. When you’re ready to enjoy them, thaw the rolls overnight in the refrigerator. To reheat, place the rolls in the microwave for 15-20 seconds or in the oven at 350°F for 5-10 minutes. If you want to freeze the rolls for later, wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and aluminum foil, then place them in a freezer-safe container or bag.

To make the brown butter glaze, you will need to first make brown butter. If you haven't done this before let me explain to you just how easy it is. Soon, you'll be doing this to your butter for many recipes you make. First, you will need to melt the butter in a small saucepan over a medium-low heat. Let that cook, stirring occasionally, until the butter is a light golden brown color and has a nutty aroma. Then remove from heat and let cool. Depending on the recipe you will let it come to room temp and place it in the fridge, let come to room temp alone with no fridge, or use right away. Any way you choose to use the butter, it takes every recipe to the next level. The combination of sweet apple cider and nutty brown butter makes for a truly indulgent treat. Brown butter glaze is the perfect finish to this autumnal delight.

How to Store This Cake

After baking the cake, allow it to cool completely before storing. To ensure the cake stays fresh, wrap the cake tightly in plastic wrap, foil, or place it in an airtight container or cake carrier. Store at room temperature for up to 3 days, and in the refrigerator if you plan to keep the cake for longer than 3 days. If freezing, wrap the cake tightly in plastic wrap and then in aluminum foil. Feel free if necessary to store in the freezer for up to 3 months. To thaw, remove from the freezer and place in the refrigerator overnight.

Why is this apple cider bundt cake so good?

If you’re looking for the perfect Fall dessert, look no further than this delicious apple cider loaf with brown butter glaze! The addition of apple cider in the batter makes the cake incredibly moist and fluffy, and the warm Fall spices, such as cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice, give it an unmistakable seasonal flavor.

Not only does it add flavor, but the brown butter glaze also adds a beautiful glossy finish to the cake, making it look as good as it tastes. The classic combination of apple flavor and cinnamon in this cake is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.

What’s the difference between apple cider and apple juice?

Apple cider and apple juice are both popular drinks enjoyed by many around the world, but they are not the same. Apple cider is made by pressing and fermenting apples while apple juice is made from the juice of apples that have already been pressed. Apple cider is slightly tart and usually contains less sugar than apple juice. Additionally, apple cider is often enjoyed warm and spiced while apple juice is served cold. Furthermore, apple cider has a shorter shelf life than apple juice, as it is not pasteurized. Apple cider is usually darker in color than apple juice. If you can't find fresh apple cider, store-bought apple cider will work just as well. For a sweeter loaf, opt for unfiltered, preservative-free apple cider. This will make the loaf more flavorful and give it a richer sweetness.

Using these flavorful ingredients, you can easily whip up this delicious apple cider loaf with brown butter glaze. This delightful loaf is perfect for a light breakfast or as an afternoon snack. Enjoy it on its own or with a side of Greek yogurt and fresh berries. The possibilities are endless!

Can the brown butter glaze be prepared ahead of time?

The brown butter glaze gives this cake a rich, nutty flavor and a creamy texture. Conveniently, the glaze can be prepared ahead of time. Up to one day ahead for best results. To prepare the glaze ahead of time, simply melt the butter, whisk in the spices, and then let cool to room temperature. When ready to use, whisk in the powdered sugar and apple cider until it's smooth and creamy. Refrigerate the glaze until ready to use, and then bring to room temperature before pouring over the loaf. The glaze will add a beautiful sheen to the loaf and a wonderful flavor that will make your taste buds sing. Serve this apple cider loaf with brown butter glaze at your next brunch gathering, holiday celebration, or any day you're looking for something sweet and special.

Can I substitute or omit any ingredients in the apple cider loaf with the brown butter glaze recipe?

There are always substitutions you can find to better suit your diet. Here are a few that are easy for this recipe. Know that these substitutions can alter the flavor and cook time, however. Instead of using butter, you can substitute applesauce to cut down on the fat content of the recipe. Omitting the nutmeg and cinnamon will still yield a tasty loaf, but adding raisins, dried cranberries, or chopped walnuts to the batter will give the loaf some extra texture and flavor. For an even more unique taste, you can substitute apple cider for apple cider vinegar. This will give the bread a slight tangy taste that will be sure to tantalize your taste buds.
