The Journal-World is sharing recipes for the top baked goods, as submitted by the Douglas County K-State Research and Extension office. Below, find recipes for the winners in the open class, plus 4-H grand champions, reserve grand champions and class winners.

Open Class Foods Champion

Peach Pie

Winner: Mary Ann Tindell

2 cans (29 ounce) peach pieces in light syrup, drained

1/4 cup quick cooking tapioca

1 cup sugar

1 or 2 tablespoons lemon juice

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1/8 teaspoon almond extract

2 tablespoons butter

For the crust:

2 cups flour

3/4 cup butter flavored Crisco

Dash of salt

6-8 tablespoons ice water (it has to feel right)

Drain the peaches, and add the lemon juice, tapioca, sugar, cinnamon and almond extract. This should set in about 20 minutes. During that time you can make the crust. Put the above mixture in the crust and dot with the 2 tablespoons of butter, cut in small pieces. Put on the top crust and bake in 400-degree oven for 45-50 minutes or until juices form bubbles that burst slowly.

Open Class Foods Reserve Champion

Whole Wheat Bread

Winner: Tom Sloan

Note: This recipe makes 6-7 loaves but can be reduced.

3 eggs

1 1/2 cups scalded milk

1 1/2 sticks melted butter

1/2 cup honey, plus 1/4 cup honey

Zest from 4 large lemons

2 cups sunflower seeds

Pinch of salt

3 or 4 cups whole wheat flour

10-12 cups white flour

Mix 6-7 tablespoons of yeast with 1/4 cup honey and 3/4 cup warm water.

In a large bowl, to slightly cooled scalded milk, add salt, butter, 1/2 cup honey, beaten eggs, sunflower seeds, lemon zest, and whole wheat flour. Mix ingredients. When yeast has risen, mix into the ingredients.

Gradually add and mix white flour into the other ingredients and knead dough. When sufficient flour has been added to make dough non-tacky and smooth, cover with a towel and let rise for one hour or until doubled in size.

Grease 6-7 baking pans. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

When dough has risen, punch down, roll out into loaves, and place in pans. Allow to rise again for one hour or until doubled in size.

Bake loaves for 35 minutes. I cover them after 10 minutes because the honey in the bread will burn more than sugar. Remove from oven and cool.

Grand Champion, Non-Perishable Food

Fruit Hand Pies

Winner: Colton Horne, 15- to 18-year-olds, Non-Perishable Food Product, Champion

1/2 cup butter, cut into 1/2 inch pats

1/2 cup shortening, cut into 1/2 inch pats

1/2 cup sour cream

2 egg yolks, lightly beaten

2 teaspoons lemon juice

2 3/4 cup all-purpose flour

2 tablespoons sugar

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon baking powder

1 egg, lightly beaten

1 tablespoon water

Fruit filling:

2 tablespoons coarse sugar

Place butter and shortening on a baking sheet lined with wax paper; freeze for 30 minutes. In a small bowl, combine sour cream, egg yolks and lemon juice; chill.

In a food processor fitted with the blade attachment, combine flour, sugar, salt and baking powder. Add butter and shortening. Pulse until butter bits are pea size. Drop spoonfuls of the sour cream mixture over the flour mixture. Pulse until the pastry comes together but is still crumbly with visible butter bits.

Transfer dough to a large bowl and gently knead into a ball using floured hands. Divide dough into four portions; pat each into a 4-inch square and wrap in plastic wrap; chill 45 minutes or overnight.

When pastry has chilled, combine egg and water in a small bowl for egg wash.

On a lightly floured surface, roll a dough portion to 1/8 inch thickness, leaving the rest in the refrigerator. Cut four circles using a 4-inch cookie cutter.

Place two pastry circles on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Spoon 1 1/2 tablespoons fruit filling onto center of each circle, leaving a 3/4 inch border. Brush border with egg wash. Prick remaining circles with fork or design of your choice. Place pastry tops over filling; crimp edges with fork to seal.

Repeat with remaining dough to make eight round pies. Brush pies with egg wash and sprinkle with coarse sugar.

Bake in a 375-degree oven for 16-18 minutes until golden brown, rotating sheets once.

Strawberry-Rhubarb Filling

3 cups strawberries

2 cups rhubarb

1 cup sugar

1/4 cup corn starch

Fruit should be cut into like-size pieces and then lightly tossed with other filling ingredients.

Note: Can substitute sliced frozen rhubarb, thawed and well-drained.

This makes enough filling for the hand pies and an additional 8-inch pie.

Grand Champion, 100% Whole Grain Non-Perishable Food

Cinnamon Swirl Whole Wheat Bread

Winner: Ashton Temple, 15- to 18-year-olds, 100% Whole Grain Non-Perishable Food Product, Champion

1/3 cup honey

1/3 cup oil

2 1/2 cups warm water (110 degrees)

1 1/2 tablespoons SAF instant yeast

2 1/2 teaspoons salt

6-7 cups whole wheat flour

1 1/2 tablespoons dough enhancer (optional)

1/3 cup vital wheat gluten (optional)

Cinnamon Filling

2 tablespoons butter, melted

1/3 cup sugar

1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

Combine warm water, 2 cups whole wheat flour and yeast in a large mixing bowl. Allow to sponge for 15 minutes. Add honey, oil, dough enhancer, salt and 4-5 cups additional flour until the dough begins to clean the sides of mixing bowl. Knead the dough 7-10 minutes or until smooth, elastic and small bubbles or blisters appear beneath the surface of the dough. Place dough onto a lightly floured surface and divide in half. Roll each portion into a rectangle (approximately 10 by 8 inches) and brush with butter. In a separate dish, combine sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle evenly over dough. Form dough into two loaves by tightly rolling up “jelly roll” style from the short side. Gently seal ends and place seam side down into greased bread pans. Allow the dough to rise in a slightly warm oven or other warm place until doubled in size, about 30-60 minutes. Bake the loaves for 25-30 minutes at 350 degrees. Bread is done when the top, sides, and bottom are nicely browned in color, or 180 degrees to 200 degrees is reached on an instant-read thermometer.

Yield: 2 loaves

Grand Champion, Modified Non-Perishable Food

Red “Velbeet” Cupcakes

Winner: Tristan Kramar

Ingredients:

1 1/4 cups sorghum flour

1 cup granulated sugar

3 tablespoons cocoa powder

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 cup beets, canned or cooked

1/3 cup canola or grapeseed oil

2 tablespoons lemon juice

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 cup water

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Sift flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt together in a large bowl.

Pour the beets into a food processor and process until the beets look like red applesauce. Add in the oil, lemon juice and vanilla extract and continue to process until everything is incorporated. Do not overmix in order to retain the consistency of the beets.

Add the processed ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir with a spoon until dry ingredients are no longer visible.

Distribute the vegan red velvet batter throughout the cupcake tins using an ice cream scooper to ensure equal size.

Start testing for doneness after baking the cupcakes for about 20 minutes. Because of the natural moistness of the beets and lightness of the sorghum flour, they may take longer to bake than other cupcakes. They will not rise very much. To check for doneness, insert a toothpick in the center of a cupcake. If it comes out without moisture or sticky crumbs, then the cupcakes are done.

Allow the vegan red “velbeet” cupcakes to cool to room temperature. This recipe is also gluten-free.

Yield: 1 dozen cupcakes

Croissants

Callie Enick, 15- to 18-year-olds, Non-Perishable Food Product, Reserve Champion

1 1/2 cups butter

1/3 cup flour

2 pkgs yeast

1/2 cup warm water (110-115 degrees)

3/4 cup milk

1/4 cup sugar

1 teaspoon salt

1 egg

3 3/4 to 4 1/4 cups flour

1 egg yolk

1 tablespoon milk

Cream butter with 1/3 cup flour. Roll butter mixture between two sheets of waxed paper into a 12-by-6-inch rectangle. Chill at least 1 hour. Soften yeast in warm water. Heat 3/4 cup milk, sugar, and salt until sugar dissolves. Cool to lukewarm; turn milk mixture into a large mixing bowl. Add softened yeast and 1 egg; beat well. Stir in 2 cups of the flour; beat well. Stir in as much of the remaining flour as you can mix in with a spoon. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead in enough of the remaining flour to make a moderately soft dough that is smooth and elastic (3 to 5 minutes). Let rest 10 minutes. Roll into a 14-inch square. Place chilled butter mixture on one half of dough; fold over other half and seal edges. Roll into a 21-by-12-inch rectangle. Seal edges. Fold into thirds. Roll into a 21-by-12 inch rectangle. Fold and roll twice more; seal edges. Chill after each rolling. Fold into thirds to 12-by-7 inches. Cover; chill several hours or overnight. Cut dough crosswise into fourths. Roll each fourth into a 12-inch circle. Cut each circle into 12 wedges. Roll up each wedge loosely, starting from the side opposite the point. Place on ungreased baking sheets, point down; curve ends. Cover; let rise until double (30-45 minutes). Beat egg yolk with 1 tablespoon milk; brush on rolls. Bake in a 375-degree oven for 12-15 minutes. Remove from baking sheets.

Unbaked Blueberry Pie

Winner: Cade Grosoehme, 9- to 11-year-olds, Non-Perishable Food Product, Reserve Champion

1 prebaked 10 inch cornmeal pie shell (recipe below)

7 cups fresh blueberries washed, well drained, stems removed (6 cups for 9-inch pan)

1 1/4 cups sugar (1 cup for 9-inch pan)

1/4 cup cornstarch (scant 1/4 cup for 9-inch pan)

1 tablespoon lemon juice, freshly squeezed

Prepare the pie shell.

Arrange half the blueberries in the baked pie shell.

In a large non-aluminum saucepan, stir together the sugar and cornstarch.

Stir in the lemon juice and the remaining blueberries.

Bring the berries to a simmer over medium heat. Cook them until they pop and the juices thicken slightly, about 5-6 minutes.

Pour the cooked berries over the raw berries in the shell, spreading them as evenly as possible.

Refrigerate the pie for at least two hours before serving to set up.

Makes one 10-inch single crust pie.

Adapted recipe for 9-inch pan:

Cornmeal Pastry

1 cup plus 5 tablespoons all-purpose flour

3 tablespoons yellow cornmeal

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup very cold, unsalted butter, cut into small pieces

3-4 tablespoons very cold water

Mix dry ingredients (flour, cornmeal, and salt).

Cut in butter.

Add cold water and stir. Gently pat into ball and flatten into disc.

Wrap in plastic wrap, put into plastic bag, and chill for at least 20 minutes (and up to one hour).

(Note: can roll out on parchment paper, waxed paper, or plastic wrap, but not necessary.) Sprinkle flour on rolling surface and on rolling pin. Roll dough from center out. Turn it every now and then. Can sprinkle flour under dough to prevent it from sticking.

When it measures about 2 inches larger than pie pan, lift and place in pan. Be sure not to pull and stretch dough, or it will shrink as it bakes. Trim dough to 1/2 inch beyond edge of pan. Crimp. Chill again for 20 minutes before baking. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line pie crust with parchment paper or aluminum foil, fill with weights (beans or rice) and bake until edges are light tan (about 8 minutes). Remove from oven. Remove paper with weights. Prick bottom and sides of crust with fork.

Bake for about 8 minutes more, until crust is light golden. (Note: if edges are browning too fast, place foil ring on top.)

Remove from oven and place on rack to cool. Note: while still hot, brush with beaten egg white.

Note: Remember, for flaky pie crust, place hot filling into hot crust or cool filling into cool crust.

Tomato, Basil, and Garlic Filled Pane Bianco

Winner: Ashley Gilges, 12- to 14-year-olds, Non-Perishable Food Product, Champion

1/2 cup warm water (100-110 degrees)

1/4 cup granulated sugar

4 teaspoons Fleischmann’s Active Dry Yeast

1 cup warm low-fat milk (100-110 degrees)

1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil

2 large eggs

2 teaspoons salt

5-5 1/2 cups King Arthur Unbleached Bread Flour

1 (8.5 ounce) jar oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, well-drained

3/4 teaspoon granulated garlic or garlic powder

1 1/2 cups shredded Italian blended cheese, divided

2/3 cup chopped fresh basil

In a small bowl, add warm water, sugar and yeast. Stir and let sit 10 minutes. In the bowl of a stand mixer, add milk, oil, yeast mixture, eggs and salt. Mix until well-combined, about 2 minutes.

Stir in enough of the flour to make a soft dough. Knead on a lightly floured surface or with a dough hook 6-8 minutes, or until smooth and elastic. Place dough in a greased bowl, turn to grease top. Cover, let rise in a warm place until double, about 45 minutes.

Meanwhile, thoroughly drain sun-dried tomatoes; lay on paper towel to absorb moisture. Using kitchen shears, finely chop tomatoes. Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.

Punch down dough, divide in half. Roll one piece into a 22-by-8 1/2-inch rectangle. Sprinkle on half of the garlic, cheese, basil and tomatoes. Starting with 22-inch side, roll up (jelly roll fashion) tightly. Pinch edges to seal. Place roll seam-side-down on baking sheet. With scissors, cut lengthwise down center of roll, about 1-inch deep to within 1/2 inch of the ends. Keeping cut-side up, form an “S” shape. Tuck both ends under center of “S” to form a “Figure eight”; pinch ends to seal.

Cover; let rise in a warm place until double, 45-60 minutes. Repeat with the remaining dough.

Bake the first loaf in a preheated 350-degree oven 35 to 40 minutes. Tent loaf with foil after 15-20 minutes to prevent overbrowning. Bake remaining loaf. Remove from pan; cool on wire rack.

Yield: 2 loaves, 20 slices each.
