Ingredients

Directions

1. Heat griddle or skillet over medium to low heat.  In a large bowl combine flour, salt, baking powder, & sugar.
2. In another bowl, combine evaporated milk, lemon juice, & lemon zest.  Let rest for 4-5 minutes.  Add egg, vanilla, & melted butter.  Lightly stir to blend.
   
3. Gently combine wet & dry ingredients (wet into dry).  Stir to blend ingredients.  Add more milk if batter seems too thick.  Do not make too thin of a batter.
4. Melt a dab of butter on heated skillet/griddle.  Drop batter by ¼ cups & cook until golden (approximately 1-2 minutes per side).  Serve with softened butter & syrup of choice.

Chef’s Note: You can substitute buttermilk for the evaporated milk & lemon juice & zest.

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray an 8″ square pan with olive oil. Set aside.
2. Place the honey in a large glass measuring cup. Microwave on high power until the honey is runny & just bubbling, 45 to 60 seconds. Add cocoa & stir with a fork until well combined. Let cool to room temperature.
3. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, place the flour, baking powder, baking soda, & salt. Whisk until well combined.
4. In a large bowl, combine the applesauce, oil, egg, & vanilla. Whisk together until well blended. Add honey, cocoa mixture & whisk until smooth. Add the flour mixture to the liquid mixture & stir until no traces of flour remain. Scrape the batter into the prepared pan.
5. Bake until the surface looks dry around the edges of the pan & a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs clinging to it, about 25 minutes. Do not overbake. Place the pan on a cooling rack & let cool completely before slicing into 16 squares. (Store the brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days)
6. Cover pot & let soup simmer on low for 30 minutes.
7. Serve in a bowl, top with spoon full of sour cream & shredded cheese.
