1950's Breakfast Ideas!
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Hello Darlings! In this weeks video I spent the week trying out and thoroughly enjoying some 1940's and 1950's breakfast recipes! Breakfast can easily become mundane when you always eat the same old thing, so it was nice to spice up the breakfast game and try out some new ideas! I will be adding these into my breakfast rotations because yummmoo they were good! Let me know if you try any of these out, I would love to hear your thoughts!
Lots of love,
Sage Xx
Recipes Below!
Tomato and Egg on Fried Bread:
4 Tomatoes
2 Thick Slices of Bread
2 Eggs
2 or 3 ozs. Beef Dripping
Salt and Pepper
Method:
Stalk, wipe and halve the tomatoes. Fry them gently till they are tender, in half an ounce of dripping. Melt the remainder of the dripping in another pan. Add the bread and fry it slowly until it is beginning to brown, turning it over once or twice. When the bread is ready, lift it on to a hot dish and top it with the fried tomatoes. Sprinkle these with pepper and salt and keep the tomatoes on toast warm, while the eggs are frying. Then top each tomato toast with a fried egg.
For a change, the fried egg can be served on the fried bread without the tomatoes; or the fried tomatoes can be served alone on the fried bread.
Griddle Cakes:
1 1/4 cups sifted enriched flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 beaten egg
1 cup milk
2 tablespoons salad oil or melted shortening or bacon fat
Sift flour with baking powder, sugar, and salt. Combine egg, milk, and shortening. Add to dry ingredients, stirring just till flour is moistened. Batter will be lumpy. Bake on ungreased griddle.
When underside of griddle cakes are nicely browned, sprinkle about 2 tablespoons of washed and drained blueberries over each cake. Turn and brown. Makes 6 to 8 cakes.
Baked Apples:
Select large, good quality baking apples. Wash; remove core. Place in baking pan. In centre of each apple, place 1 to 2 tablespoons brown or granulated sugar and 1/2 teaspoon butter.
Pour 1 cup water around apples and bake uncovered in moderate oven (375 F / 190 C) for 45 - 60 minutes or until tender. Baste apples several times while they are baking.
Apple centres may be filled with chopped dates, raisins, mincemeat, or cranberries.
Fritter Batter:
1 1/3 cups sifted enriched flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup milk
1 well-beaten egg
Sift together flour, baking powder, salt and pepper if desired. Blend milk and egg; add gradually to dry ingredients. Stir in desired fruit, vegetable, or meat. Drop from tablespoon into deep, hot fat (365 - 375 F / 185 - 190 C) Fry 2 to 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
Use 1 1/2 cups drained; whole kernel corn. Serve fritters with maple syrup.
(I served my corn fritters with avocado and kewpie mayonnaise)
Crispy-crumb Eggs:
6 slices bacon, chopped
1 cup soft bread crumbs
1/2 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon salt
Dash pepper
5 well-beaten eggs
Fry bacon till crisp; remove bacon.
Add bread crumbs to drippings and heat until crumbs are crisp and brown; remove crumbs.
Add milk and seasonings to eggs; scramble in bacon drippings. When nearly set, add crumbs and bacon. Makes 4 servings.

When I was a child in the 50's we lived on a farm. My grandpa had a huge garden and we had some chickens so we had eggs with fried tomatoes, corn fritters ( though my Mom always used Bisquick instead of making it from scratch), and a dish Mom called scrambled mess - which was similar to your fluffy eggs. She would scramble the eggs with ham or sausage or bacon - whatever she had, potatoes, onions , green peppers or any combo of those she had available, and just before serving put some chedder cheese on top. However, we had this for supper, not breakfast. Served with sliced tomatoes and dill pickles.

My youngest introduced me to this channel. She is 15 and loves the hair tutorials and cooking. I myself have always loved everything about the 1930's-1940's since I was a kid, so perhaps she was 'infected' on one of my cleaning days when I tend to turn on some Vera Lynn or Dina shore. Either way we have even more we get to do together each time a new video comes up.

Congratulations on your engagement. I wish you both much happiness. I'm 56 and my mom has that Betty Crocker cookbook. I've always loved how it's got great basics in it. I enjoy your channel ma'am. I wish young ladies really knew just how much was expected from previous generations. Knowing the career and financial limitations even my mother had needs to be taught to kids today so they're thankful for those freedoms they have now.
That first dish got my belly to growling. Seriously, tomatoes and eggs fried up is pure bliss.
We had a tomato that we needed to eat so I made tomato and egg breakfast. I decided to toast the bread instead of frying. The bread was toasting while the tomato and eggs and buttered the toast. My husband and I decided this is one of our favorite breakfast now. Thanks for sharing!

My mum grew up in the 50s and corn fritters were one of her absolute favourites - especially with some leftover corned beef (or roast lamb), mixed into the batter before frying. Thanks for reminding me.

You could chop the baked apples into the fritter batter, deep fry them in 1/4 cup amounts, drain on paper towels, dust with powdered sugar. Slightly sweet treat!!
Every Sunday morning, my grandma would fried chicken with gravy along with her homemade buttermilk biscuits 😋. This was early supper before church meetings and visiting other relatives for the day.
I have one of the same cookbooks she has. My grandma gave it to my family because she used to bake Christmas cookies from it so my sister and I use her mom’s, my great grandma’s, old kitchen aid mixer and make those same cookies every year and give them to our grandma. The cookies do take a while, but are very much worth it in the end. I do recommend.

In large mixing bowl beat butter on medium to high speed for 30 seconds. Add sugar. Beat until combined, scraping sides of bowl as necessary. Beat in egg, milk, vanilla, and lemon peel. Beat in as much flour as you can with the mixer. Stir in any remaining flour. Divide dough in half. Cover and chill 1 hour or until easy to handle. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Roll half the dough at a time, between sheets of waxed paper, to 1/4-inch thickness, sprinkling bottom sheet of waxed paper with flour if cookie dough sticks. Cut with desired cutters (if dough becomes too soft, return to refrigerator). Place 1 inch apart on ungreased cookie sheets. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until edges are firm and bottoms are barely light brown. Transfer to wire rack to cool. Makes about 2-1/2 dozen (2-1/2- to 3-1/2-inch) cookies.

Wonderful. 1950's and 1960's are for me the best ages. All is perfect: music, movies, fashion, cartoons, products, commercials, life style at all. Only cars I prefer in the ages 1920 - 1950.
Fried tomato on bread is my absolute favourite weekend brunch meal
I don't comment very often. In fact, I'm not sure I've ever comment...but I really enjoy your videos so very much! I was born in 1963. Your videos really take me back. I love it! Beautiful channel!

I watched this video with my almost 2-year-old and he loved it! He got especially excited at the Griddle Cakes. When I asked him if Mama should make them one of these days he started wiggling around and repeated "gwi cake" several times. So I guess we are having a new breakfast tomorrow :) Thank you!!
My grandmother used to make baked apples. She would leave just a bit of the bottom of the apple so there wasn’t a hole straight through. That helped the stuff inside not leak out, especially when you move it for plating. So yummy!
I had to revisit your old videos ,I miss the beautiful home you created.
Love hearing your "Hello Darlings" as know to settle in to visit with you! You reminded me of childhood cooking in the the '50s. We used bacon grease so much & velveeta cheese (which really isn't a cheese but so yummy) all the time. My Dad's speciality was scrambled eggs fried in bacon grease with cut up bacon, diced tomatoes, chopped green peppers & velveeta cheese. We called it Lewy-Lewy after his name. Served with peanut butter toast. Happy memories! Your other 2 recipes look yummy! TU, Sage! 🥰

I like breakfast for dinner so I will be making tomato egg on toast first. The baked apples would make a yummy winter or fall dessert.
I was born in 1960 but have always loved everything about the 1940s-50s. Years ago I started collecting vintage cookbooks and have used them in my everyday menus. So enjoy your videos.
I grew up on n the 50s, 60s and 70s and this all looks delicious! We are oldsters now, but this does remind me of growing up.
I can pretty much cook all breakfast I love this!
Your videos are such a breath of positivity and overall feelgood in otherwise troublesome/depressing times. It makes me happy to do chores and it motivates me to finish my school assignments! Thank you dearly!

I am a breakfast person and love making breakfast. Thanks for these recipes Sage, they look delicious.
I'm Japanese,but I love movies from the 1950s and am very interested in the fashion, home interiors,and especially food from that time. sage is also very nice with her hairstyle and fashion from that time.
I watched this video a few days ago, and I already eat tomatoes with eggs and toast. An old friend ordered his food at Waffle House (US) with tomato slices instead of hash browns, so I started doing that at home. However, ever since I saw this video I’ve been eating my toast/eggs/tomatoes with a fork and knife as shown here and I swear it just changed my life. My hands are no longer covered in butter and yolk and crumbs. My sensory overload weight has been lifted and adhd satisfied because of cutting toast and I thank you lol
It's just gone 8pm here and this is a wonderful thing to do for the evening! Plan out what to eat in the morning 😂, thank you Sage, and great luck with your nursing! I'm greatly inspired by you 💛
Love the music, the aesthetic, history and the tradition of these recipes! I feel like I’m back in time for all the good parts of it. My favorite memories of meals from mom, they really do taste different than anyone else! ❤️
I love your channel Sage, honestly my favourite channel on KZread. Love how you live, your clothing, cooking , decorating ideas is just marvellous.

Momma used to make baked apples in the 1940s & ‘50s. Sometimes she would wrap each apple completely up in pie crust for Apple dumplings. We had an apple tree so this was a frequent treat.
Hi Sage! These recipes took me right back to my childhood & the kind of breakfasts my mother made! Hope all is well for you! Love from Arkansas ♥️

My Mother had a recipe for corn fritters that used a can of creamed corn instead of fresh corn. Came out great. Usually served with applesauce and sour cream if you like sour cream.

Yes! Or unsweetened grass-fed yogurt which tastes similar to sour cream, and apple butter for a pioneer Southern American touch? 😋 (for anyone who doesn't know, apple butter is very brown and spreadable, it looks a bit like vegemite: apples cooked down with cinnamon and possibly other sweet spices. Very old fashioned & good!)

I so love your content! Your videos are so relaxing and I feel as if I'm getting a glimpse into history! The egg scramble is very similar to what I do, but I haven't used bread bits cooked in the bacon fat. I definitely will try this! I don't know why I haven't thought of frying tomatoes like that, super yum.
Thank you very much, Sage They look delicious. I've made one similar to your eggs and tomatoes on toast. I scramble the eggs with chopped tomatoes and sliced mushrooms and then put it on toast. I like it but my boyfriend doesn't. He doesn't like mushy food.
Absolutely love this! Definitely one of my fave breakfast recipes videos. 9.23 pm and I now have to get up and whip up some eggs, tomato and fried toast 😋
My Grandmother made many things ,when I was growing up ( she came to stay with us often ) and I adored the Baked Apples she would make . ... she would pour a little bit of warm milk over them, in the little serving bowls, add a sprinkling of sugar . She also added fresh grated nutmeg ,with the brown sugar mixture. The tomatoes and egg ,on toast, I will sometimes make that for supper, I add sliced cooked bacon over top of the tomatoes. Yummmm.. lol.. Always enjoy seeing what's on Sage Lilleymans Channel!
I have a version of the egg/tomato one that I do that starts with putting fried eggs on a piece of toast, then adding some provolone cheese, then a bed of sauteed spinach, then the tomatoes. So delicious!
