Introducing the Icon One-Fourth Amish Half-and-Half Milk Pie (almonds, optional)

Posted by Fred Steiner on Sunday, March 9, 2014

Some pie lovers call this Amish milk pie. Since the Icon never follows a pie recipe properly, we’ll call this the Icon One-Fourth Amish Half-and-Half Milk Pie.

That’s primarily because we cut out lots of the sugar. You’ll notice one-fourth in lots of places in the list of ingredients – thus the renamed pie. We'll get to the half-and-half shortly.

In fact, we cut out one complete cup of sugar and this pie was devoured in the same amount of time as any previous pie from the Icon’s oven. So, who needs all that sugar?

4-Her Megan Light likes 4-H food projects

Posted by Fred Steiner on Sunday, March 9, 2014

My name is Megan Light and I am 11 years old.

This is my third year in 4-H and I am in the Liberty Belles & Boys 4-H club. One of my projects last year was called “Fast Break For Breakfast.” It taught me a lot about how breakfast is a very important meal and how fast and easy breakfast is to make.

My favorite nutritious breakfast recipe to make and eat was called the break-away bars. I liked it because it was a healthy, but delicious snack to eat. My favorite ingredients in the break-away bars were the chocolate chips and peanut butter.
