Kringlar Sweedish pastry

From Grandma Candy <3

Cut flour and butter together with water like pie crust. Pat mixture together on cookie sheet - 2 long strips 3" wide.

Part 2
In a sauce pan

1 cup water
1/2 cup butter
heat together until boiling, remove from heat. As you remove from heat add 1 cup flour and stir until smooth.
Beat in 3 eggs on at a time. Then stir in 1 1/2 teaspoons almond flavoring.
Spread this gooey mixture over the 2 long strips of crust (not easy)

Bake 375 for about 45 minutes - don't let it get too dark.

French toast baked with honey pecan sauce


French toast:
5 large eggs

3/4 cup 1/2 & 1/2
1 tbs brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
6 slices french toast bread

Sauce: 1/2 stick of butter cut into pieces
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup honey

1/4 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup chopped pecans

Combine eggs, 1/2 & 1/2, brown sugar and vanilla in a small bowl.
Pour half of the egg mixture into a 13 x 9 inch glass dish. Place all bread slices in dish, then pour the rest of the egg mixture over the top - making sure all parts of the bread are saturated. Refrigerate, covered, overnight.

In the morning preheat oven to 350 degrees. Melt butter in sauce pan. When melted, stir in brown sugar, honey, maple syrup, and pecans. Drizzle this sauce over slices of bread then bake for 35 minutes or until golden brown.

*If you have an extra sugar craving make whip cream or honey butter for the top.

1/2 cup heavy whipping cream 1 tsp vanilla beat on high until fluffy

Honey butter:
1/2 stick soften butter
1 cup honey 1 cup brown sugar beat on high until smooth and creamy.
