That looks FABULOUS! I love the combination of flavors and textures.

Just a humble PB & J
I had a peanut butter & jelly sandwich on Oopsies today. This is probably the best batch I've ever produced so far. The buns are very fluffy, bready, and firm enough to not fall apart when you spread something as thick as peanut butter on them.
With these ingenius creations (thanks again, Cleo!!!), a lower-carb diet is easy to stick with. |

Has anyone fabricated an oopsie pig in a blanket? I'm thinking it might be fun but wondering how to do it. I guess I'd have to whip it super stiff so the final mix will stand up. then I could put a tiny plop of mustard, a tiny spinkle of cheese and a mini-weiner in the middle and plop another spoonful of batter on top.
Hee Hee, my kitchen is still a wreck, so I cant try this yet but it would be a weird experiment to try. Added: Duh, or I could do it like the danishes and par-bake em till just stiff enough then just put the dog in the center covered with cheese. It'd be an open faced pig-in-an-oopsie. ( I got a bag of Mini Oscar Meyer weiners and trying to come up with something to do with 'em.

Also a heads up for everyone, I saw muffin top pans at Bed, Bath and Beyond this week, I haven't seen them there in a long time so maybe they are starting to carry them again.

Now I do remember someone making pigs in a blanket with them for the SuperBowl at this board but can't at all remember who it was. She had pictures, too!

Could you put something in them and then bake them? I am not eating pork (saw how pigs are treated at the slauter house, etc. and cows) so I am eating fish, chicken and turkey right now (somehow this is better in my mind) and perhaps turkey sausage in the center?

You could do that if you carefully fold it in. I chop meat and shred cheese and then carefully fold those in. The lesser weight of chopped/minced items keeps them from falling to the bottom of the batter.

So you're renaming oopsie rolls to souffle buns? I'm trying to keep up here (and I checked your blog).

JosieK,
How did you get your oopsies to look like "bread" like in your picture of the PB&J sandwich? They look more dense than the recipe I use. Could you PM me and let me know? Thanks. |

Mine look like that as well. I think the secret is the muffintop pans and sufficient batter. My ratio is 8oz of cheese and 8 eggs to 2-muffintop pans = 12 nice bread thick Oopsies. |

Yeah I use those. She has a picture in her blog of a PB&J sandwich and it looks like bread.

I doubt those are oopsies. The texture is very much like Kevin's gluten-free bread, as opposed to the oopsies. The texture is too tight.

Jenna's right about how to make Oopsies more bready. The buns are firmer and tighter when use more eggs and more cheese. The only difference is 8 oz cheese and 8 eggs yield 24 muffin tops for me instead of 12. So I think Jenna's results must be even better than mine.

Well, I'm confused. What happened to your blog, Josie? Where'd it go?

That's weird.
We were having positive dialog in an email, and then suddenly she shuts the email address down and the blog disappeared. I also received a tersely-worded threat off-site which curiously appears to be from the same person threatening retribution. For what? Being nice? Engaging in dialog? ![]() |

Was there an "oopsie" war that I missed somewhere in here????? I'm confused.
What's going on? |

Incidentally, picture this: A reader just told me she's had oopsies with turkey and real cranberry sauce as a sandwich.
I am drooling over here.I love Thanksgiving and I LOVE turkey and cranberry sauce. |

We cooked two turkeys over the Mother's Day weekend - and I made homemade LC cranberry sauce - and you can BET I had me some sammies with Oopsies, turkey, mayo, Vidalia onion, and cranberry sauce!
I just said to DH last night it's about time to cook another turkey.... |

That stinks! Thanks for the update, Linda. Here's hoping Blogger will be able to rectify these situations in short order.
