- Hey, y'all.
0:01
I am fixing to whip up the most incredible little pecan...
0:08
They're not pies.
0:10
Little pecan muffins.
0:12
They're mini muffins, and they will melt in your mouth.
0:17
Well, so, let me tell you why I'm making them.
0:21
The corporate office got a call here in town
0:24
from the team,
0:27
Savannah Bananas,
0:29
and they are a semi-pro team that we have here,
0:34
Ed, tell me, help me fill in
0:36
the blanks on Sava-- - [Ed] They're baseball.
0:38
- Yeah, it's baseball, did I not say that?
0:40
Theresa, what are you doing that you ain't answering me?
0:43
- [Theresa] I don't know, I mean, I don't really, I mean,
0:45
(laughing)
0:46
Jesse contacted me, is who we contacted.
0:49
- Jesse, Jesse owns...
0:50
- Jesse Colt...
0:53
- [Ed] Cole.
0:54
- Cole. I couldn't remember what his last name was,
0:56
but a very nice guy.
0:57
And he's owned it now for about four or five years?
0:59
- [Theresa] Five.
1:00
- Five years. He has done an incredible job,
1:04
and the stadium is located on victory drive.
1:07
And I'm telling you what people really turn out.
1:11
Don't they Theresa?
1:12
- [Theresa] And this is the big deal,
1:14
because they won the very first year they were ever,
1:17
they went to the championship game and the won,
1:21
and this is the fifth year,
1:21
and they're going back to the championship.
1:24
- Oh good.
1:24
- [Theresa] That's why they've invited you.
1:25
- Oh, oh, okay.
1:27
- I hope everybody heard that.
1:30
This is their first.
1:31
Did you say this was the first?
1:33
- [Theresa] This will be their fifth year,
1:34
and they're going back to the championship.
1:36
They won it their first year.
1:38
- Oh, okay.
1:39
So five years ago they won it and now they're going back
1:42
- [Theresa] Yeah!
1:43
- to try to win it again and tonight is, is it the finals?
1:49
- [Theresa] This is a second game. So it's the best...
1:51
It's the best
1:52
- Okay, cause last night they won.
1:54
- [Theresa] two out of three so that if they win tonight,
1:55
they won, but it could go to the south.
1:58
It could go tomorrow.
2:00
The outcome.
2:01
- So I'm so excited.
2:03
I have worked with Jesse before.
2:07
I know I remember doing a Christmas video with the,
2:12
with the team a few years ago,
2:14
and I've dressed up like Ms. Claus,
2:16
and it was like in July,
2:18
I thought I was going to die from the heat,
2:20
but these guys are so cute and they're very, very good.
2:25
So anyway, the person that called the corporate office,
2:29
I don't know if it was JC or not,
2:30
but they said they've got some big Paula Deen fans
2:34
on the team, and would I possibly come and just speak
2:40
to them tonight before the game and give them an attaboy?
2:43
Well, of course I am honored and delighted to do that.
2:48
And I called all around to see how many grandchildren would
2:53
want to go, because I'll actually be in the dugout, I think,
2:57
right, Theresa?
2:59
- [Ed] We're going to go to the locker room.
3:03
- Oh, we're goin into the locker room y'all!
3:05
- [Ed] Just ahead of the game,
3:06
and then we'll go to the stadium
3:09
- Good! Well, all the,
3:11
all the grand babies already have some plans,
3:14
but Jamie is bringing Maddie and Jack.
3:18
So I'm hoping that they'll go into the locker room with me
3:23
and get to meet these guys,
3:25
because they are good and they're dedicated.
3:28
So we can't go empty handed. We have to take them a treat.
3:32
Don't we?
3:33
Well, Eddie and I decided to make them our little, pecan,
3:39
let's just call them tarts.
3:41
It's not really a tart, but it's in the mini muffin pan.
3:48
And cause Eddie said something about
3:50
taking a banana nut bread, but you know what?
3:53
I just have had these little things on my brain and I said,
3:57
oh, let's make those, and Eddie said okay!
4:00
And we can make a buttercream icing,
4:03
and get some banana chips and stick a banana chip
4:06
on top of our muffin to let them know
4:09
that we're really thinking about the Savannah Banana team.
4:12
So that's what we're going to do. And this is so simple.
4:16
You want some don't ya Mike?
4:17
- [Mike] No.
4:19
- You lyin! Haha! You lie!
4:22
You lying.
4:24
All right, I'm gonna take my flour
4:28
and my brown sugar.
4:29
And this is one cup of packed brown sugar and a half a cup
4:33
of all purpose flour.
4:36
And I'm just going to mix those two things together
4:40
real well.
4:41
We don't have to pull out a mixer for this one y'all,
4:44
and when I don't have to use a mixer,
4:48
oh, it's a good day.
4:52
It is a good day. So I'm going to get,
4:59
I'm going to get my whisk.
5:02
The reason Michael said he didn't want one,
5:05
He's been doing so good on his diet.
5:09
He went to key west to the Ernest Hemingway look alike and
5:14
he kind of fell off the wagon and he's had trouble crawling
5:18
back up the wagon. Hadn't you?
5:21
Michael? Oh he's crying y'all.
5:24
(laughing)
5:26
Hims crying.
5:28
(laughing)
5:29
- Don't cry. Big fat baby.
5:32
(cackle laugh)
5:36
Did you hear me, Michael?
5:37
- [Mike] No.
5:38
- He has so got me tuned out y'all
5:41
Alright now,
5:45
you need two eggs that are slightly beaten,
5:53
alright I'm going to get a spatula,
5:57
and get every bit of that out.
6:03
(dish clashes in sink)
6:06
- And then we've got two thirds of a cup of melted butter.
6:11
Now, you know, it's good.
6:14
That's flour, butter,
6:16
(spatula taps on bowl)
6:18
- sugar, and eggs.
6:22
(dish clashes in sink)
6:26
- And then we gonna top these puppies off with,
6:29
like a cup of chopped nuts.
6:36
Where are you going?
6:40
Crazy.
6:44
You can have one muffin.
6:47
Okay. So let's just review.
6:49
It's one cup of packed, brown sugar,
6:52
a half a cup of all purpose flour,
6:55
one cup of chopped pecans,
6:58
two thirds a cup of melted butter, and two eggs.
7:03
That is it y'all.
7:08
And Eddie, Eddie makes these a lot
7:13
for us when we need a quick snack.
7:16
If I'm, if I don't have time,
7:20
Eddie will jump in here and make these,
7:25
and Eddie cooks his
7:29
about 13 minutes, Eddie?
7:31
- [Ed] Yeah. It doesn't take, it doesn't take very long.
7:35
- So I liked them where they'll they they'll fall and then
7:40
they'll get like a gooey center to them.
7:44
So I don't want them to have the texture of a cake.
7:47
- [Ed] Yeah. I think if you start checking it with,
7:49
if the rim starts turning brown, that's,
7:53
- Yes!
7:53
- [Ed] that's just about it.
7:55
- So you want to make sure that you spray your
7:59
mini muffin tan and you know,
8:01
it's hard to spray little mini muffins.
8:07
So this is what I do.
8:10
(grease can sprays)
8:17
- [Ed] You know, Jesse.
8:19
- I'm about out.
8:21
- [Ed] Jesse reminds me of a modern day PT Barnum
8:25
(cackle laugh)
8:26
- [Ed] out of the greatest showman.
8:28
I mean, he does such a great little act
8:31
throughout the whole show.
8:33
I mean, or gain.
8:35
So call it a shack.
8:37
(laughing)
8:38
- No, it's for real.
8:39
The game is for real.
8:41
What does he do? Where are you going Mikey?
8:44
You go and take your records and go home.
8:47
- [Mike] Nope.
8:48
- What are you going to do?
8:50
- I'm making a wasp trap
8:52
- Oh. And show us what you doing.
8:56
- I got jelly and water mixture,
9:01
and that's my wasp trap
9:04
- [Paula] And where's your wasp trap?
9:06
- This is going to be over on the other end of the house
9:08
- [Paula] Oh, haha! You know,
9:10
Bobby's got wasp out here in this back porch y'all,
9:14
and it's a kind of wasp that they drill holes.
9:18
It looks like a woodpecker doesn't it?
9:20
Has been out there. Doesn't it Mikey?
9:25
All right. Now I'm gonna just grease my dipper
9:36
and just scoop these right on up.
9:48
To me, that's the perfect, perfect size.
9:53
Is that about what you do, Eddie?
9:54
- [Ed] Yeah.
9:56
- Okay. So I'm fixing to run these in the oven.
10:00
I've got them dipped and we'll see you back
10:03
in like 10 or 12 minutes.
10:06
All right. I told y'all it was going to be really quick,
10:09
and 350, I don't know if I told you a preheat temp,
10:14
but it's 350 and this is how they turn out y'all
10:22
They are incredible.
10:31
See all the pecan?
10:37
Got that wonderful gooey center.
10:41
It's just like a little bite of heaven, and I'm not kidding.
10:46
- And all these need is my teeth,
10:53
but because this is a gift,
10:57
we're gonna do a little pretty pretty to them.
11:07
Savannah Bananas.
11:13
The guys are gonna love them.
11:18
So there you go. Just that easy.
11:23
And I'll be back with y'all for another video
11:26
once I get to the stadium and you can see all the guys,
11:33
they're just neat guys.
11:35
Hey, y'all I'm here in Savannah, Georgia
11:40
at the Savannah Bananas stadium and everybody is hyped up.
11:45
If they win the game tonight,
11:47
that means they win the championship.
11:50
So I'm going to go surprise the boys,
11:52

13:17
