First had this dish at an Amish church in rural Ohio. I will never forget the delicious smell of that church kitchen! After a little questioning, a kind woman gave me the recipe. Great for a plan-ahead meal.

Time 9h25m

Yield 5

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 pound ground beef
1 cup milk
1 cup crushed saltine crackers
1 onion, finely chopped
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 (14.5 ounce) can cream of mushroom soup

Steps:

  • Mix ground beef, milk, saltine cracker crumbs, onion, salt, and black pepper in a bowl. Shape mixture into a narrow loaf and place onto a baking sheet; cover and refrigerate 8 hours to overnight.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cut loaf into 1-inch-thick slices and sear the 'steaks' in the hot skillet until browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Insides will still be pink. Arrange slices in a roasting pan. Spread mushroom soup over steaks.
  • Bake steaks in the preheated oven until mushroom soup is bubbling and meat is no longer pink inside, about 1 hour. An instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the center of a meat slice should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).

AMISH STEWED CRACKERS

Another simple recipe I am almost embarrassed to post. My Amish mother-in-law passed this on, as my husband was raised with this one. It's STILL a favorite of his today! He prefers his eggs over top the crackers - you can eat it as you wish! This was also a treat served when someone was feeling ill - fairly easy on the stomach.

Time 15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 tablespoons butter
2 cups milk
1 (4 ounce) package Ritz crackers (1-2 sleeves depending how thick you want it, we use about 1 1/2)

Steps:

  • Brown butter in a pan, then add milk.
  • When hot, pour over crackers & let milk soak inches.
  • Serve with eggs for breakfast.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Crackers: Use unsalted crackers that are sturdy enough to hold their shape in the stew. Good options include Ritz crackers, saltine crackers, or oyster crackers.
  • Use a Variety of Vegetables: Don't be afraid to experiment with different vegetables in your stew. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, and peas.
  • Cook the Stew Low and Slow: The longer you cook the stew, the more flavorful it will be. Aim to simmer the stew for at least 1 hour, or longer if you have time.
  • Season to Taste: Be sure to taste the stew as you cook it and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or herbs to taste.
  • Serve with a Side of Bread or Crackers: Amish stewed crackers are typically served with a side of bread or crackers. This helps to soak up the delicious broth.
