My family is from Goshen, Nappanee Indiana area and we miss our Amish church spread! We have been in San Antonio for 12 years now and have been missing this for some time. I was SOOOO EXCITED to see this recipe and couldn’t wait to make it for my grandbabies!!! They are 2 and 4 and I can tell you it was a Hit!! Thank you so much for sharing this. Just like I remember it growing up

I was born and raised outside of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, Amish Country. As a young girl, I was mesmorized by their lifestyle. My family would take Sunday car rides, basically just to catch a glimpse of the Amish men working the fields and the kids running and playing in their yards. Sometimes my mom and dad would stop at an auction. I can remember my mom telling me how bad the men smelled, because they didn’t wear Deoderant. We’d stop at their roadside stands that were scattered up and down Rt. 30. These farmstands sold everything from pickles and pickled vegetables to Shoo Fly Pie, Whoopie Pies and homemade bread & rolls. The food was the best part!
Now that I’m married and a mom of 2, I try to pass these German, PA Dutch influences onto my girls. Things like chicken corn soup, Pork & Sauerkraut, Whoopie Pies, and Sugar Cakes. I’ve searched & searched the web for some authentic recipes. And FINALLY, I’ve found some! Many, in one place! Thank you!
