How to make Pumpkin Pie

Mark E.

Ingredients:

  • 1 (9-inch) unbaked pie crust
  • 1 1/2 cups canned pumpkin puree
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups evaporated milk
  • Whipped cream (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Roll out the pie crust and place it into a 9-inch pie dish. Trim and crimp the edges as desired.
  3. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and salt.
  4. Beat the eggs in a separate bowl, and then whisk in the evaporated milk.
  5. Add the egg mixture to the pumpkin mixture, and whisk until everything is thoroughly combined.
  6. Pour the mixture into the pie crust.
  7. Bake the pie for 15 minutes, then reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (180°C). Continue baking for an additional 40-50 minutes or until the filling is set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the pie cool to room temperature before serving. Optionally, serve with whipped cream.

How to make Pancakes

Mark E.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • Cooking spray or additional butter, for cooking

Instructions:

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract (if using).
  3. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and whisk until just combined. Do not overmix. The batter will be lumpy, and that's okay.
  4. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Spray with cooking spray or melt a small amount of butter in the pan.
  5. Use a 1/4 cup measuring cup to scoop the batter into the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges are set, about 2-3 minutes.
  6. Flip the pancake and cook until the other side is golden brown, about 1-2 minutes.
  7. Repeat with the remaining batter, spraying the skillet with more cooking spray or adding more butter as needed.
  8. Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream. Enjoy!

How to make Bread Crumbs?

Mark E.

Here's a simple way to make bread crumbs:

  1. Choose the bread: You can use any type of bread for making bread crumbs, but stale bread works best. Bread that is a little past its prime will be easier to crumble and will make for better breadcrumbs.

  2. Cut the bread: Cut the bread into small pieces or cubes. Remove the crusts if desired.

  3. Dry the bread: You can dry the bread in the oven or on the counter. To dry it in the oven, preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C). Spread the bread pieces out on a baking sheet and bake for about 10-15 minutes, or until the bread is completely dry and crisp. To dry it on the counter, simply leave the bread out on a plate or tray for a few days until it is completely dry and hard.

  4. Blend or crush the bread: Once the bread is completely dry, use a food processor, blender, or a rolling pin to crush the bread into fine crumbs.

  5. Store the breadcrumbs: Store the breadcrumbs in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a few weeks, or in the freezer for up to 6 months.

That's it! You now have homemade bread crumbs that you can use for breading, coating, or topping your favorite dishes.

Javascript code for Clock with am or pm

Mark E.

Here's an updated version of the previous example that includes AM/PM notation:

HTML:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Digital Clock</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <h1 id="clock"></h1>
    <script src="/script.js"></script>
  </body>
</html>

JavaScript:

function updateTime() {
  // Get current date and time
  let now = new Date();
  
  // Extract hours, minutes, and seconds
  let hours = now.getHours();
  let minutes = now.getMinutes();
  let seconds = now.getSeconds();
  
  // Determine AM/PM notation
  let ampm = hours >= 12 ? 'PM' : 'AM';
  
  // Convert hours to 12-hour format
  if (hours > 12) {
    hours -= 12;
  } else if (hours === 0) {
    hours = 12;
  }
  
  // Add leading zeros to minutes and seconds
  if (minutes < 10) {
    minutes = "0" + minutes;
  }
  
  if (seconds < 10) {
    seconds = "0" + seconds;
  }
  
  // Format the time
  let time = hours + ":" + minutes + ":" + seconds + " " + ampm;
  
  // Update the clock
  document.getElementById("clock").innerHTML = time;
}

// Update the clock every second
setInterval(updateTime, 1000);

This code gets the current time using the Date object, formats it in a human-readable way, and updates an HTML element with the formatted time every second using setInterval(). You can customize the appearance of the clock by modifying the CSS for the clock element. This code adds some additional logic to determine the AM/PM notation based on the current hour, and formats the time string to include the notation.
