Dutch Oven Scrapple

Dutch Oven Scrapple

Ingredients:
2 lbs of your favorite flavor of "Little Smokies".
Three large apples (red delicious seem to be our favorite)
One package (can) of Marie Callendars Corn Bread Mix
Water for the Corn bread mix
1/2 cup of brown sugar
Butter
Syrup

Directions:
Put Little Smokies in the bottom of the Dutch oven (If you substitute pork sausage, brown it first and drain off the fat).
Core and slice the apples into 3/8-1/2 inch thick slices and layer them on top of the Little Smokies.
Sprinkle the brown sugar on top of the apples. Mix the cornbread mix per instructions. Over 5000 ft. altitude add a few
extra tablespoons of water. Pour the mix on top of the apples. Cooks in about 45-55 minutes.
Note: Recipe is for 12" diameter, 4" deep (baking) Dutch ovens. Use 15 coals on the top and 10 on the bottom to produce
about a 350 degree oven.

potatoes. Crack one or two eggs in to each of the depressions. Cover the Dutch Oven. Add heat to the top to cook the
eggs. When the whites are white, sprinkle cheese over the top and return the heat to the top of the Dutch Oven long
enough to melt the cheese. The yolks should be liquid.

Breads & Muffins
Lemon Poppyseed Rolls
5 1/2 cups bread flour 1 3/4 cups scalded milk; 125° F.
2 Tbs. yeast 1 1/4 tsp. lemon extract
1/2 cup sugar 1 tsp. vanilla extract
1/3 cup instant potato flakes 2 eggs; beaten
1 Tbs. salt 2 Tbs. melted butter
1/2 cup butter; melted poppy seeds
In a mixing bowl combine 2 cups flour, yeast, sugar, potato flakes, and salt; blend well. Stir in milk, melted butter,
extracts, and eggs. Mix thoroughly. Stir in remaining flour 1 cup at a time until dough pulls away from sides of bowl.
Turn dough out onto a floured board and knead it for 5 minutes until dough becomes elastic and sticky. Roll dough
generously in flour, then cover and place in a warm area free from drafts to raise until double in size.
Place raised dough on a floured board and divide into halves. Divide each half again into halves. Roll each piece of
dough into equal length rolls about 8 inches long. Cut each rope into fourths to make sixteen rolls. Flatten each piece
of dough into a flat circle about 3" in diameter than pull on the edges and fold them underneath to the center to make
a nice ball with a tight round top. Place each formed roll round side up into a warm greased 12" Dutch oven; twelve
around the outside edge, five in a cicle inside the outer ring, and one in the center. Cover the oven and let rolls raise
for 20 minutes.
Brush top of rolls with melted butter and sprinkle with poppy seeds. Bake using 10 coals bottom and 16 coals top for
30-40 minutes. When top of rolls starts to brown, remove the Dutch Oven from all heat and let rest with the lid on for
about 5 minutes. The residual heat from the oven will finish baking the rolls. Serve warm with fresh honey butter.
Yield: 16 rolls

7 minutes until dough becomes elastic and sticky. Roll dough generously in flour, then cover and place in a warm
area free from drafts to raise until double in size.
