Weekend eating – eggs, fresh fruits and veggies and a buttery biscuit! That’s my kind of weekend eats. What about you? Are you more of a cereal eater, smoothie maker or a no-breakfast eater? I was looking to make a really flaky, but fast buttermilk biscuit and I came across this recipe. Basically a formed […]
This morning, Amelia woke up and asked me to bake banana muffins. Since we always have overripe bananas frozen in the freezer, we had our morning activity planned! We mixed everything together and 25 minutes later had some tasty, NO SUGAR muffins ready to devour. I just love that these don’t have any added sugar […]
Where I grew up, there was an amazing pizza place a few minutes down the road from us. I passed it on the way to to school everyday and I seriously loved it. We went to pickup pizza from there every Wednesday night. Most of the time, it was just plain cheese pizza. But as […]
With little kids, I tend to make A LOT OF MUFFINS. Anyone else? 🙂 Some have veggies hidden in them/some don’t, some have sugar/some don’t, some have fruit in them/some don’t… they are just the perfect little snack – they fit great in lunch boxes, they’re compact for on-the-go eating and they’re healthy! Today’s muffins […]
Hush Puppies – deep-fried balls of cornmeal. They’re a Southern staple and usually served with some kind of seafood dish or along side other fried foods. These are not healthy in any way and are a very extra special treat that I loved eating tonight with my Cajun Shrimp Étouffée. I was craving something crunchy […]
Does anyone else have an absurd amount of overripe bananas frozen in their freezer? No, just me?? HA! Well, I can only make so many banana muffins and banana bread. I needdddd to change it up sometimes, so in today’s muffin addition, I channeled some yummy fall flavors (maple and cinnamon) to mix in. I […]
It’s muffin day! I’m channeling my inner muffin making skills to make these yummy holiday muffins. They’re so moist, a little bit healthy (and a little bit decadent) and so so delicious! I make TONS of muffins for the girls and I’m always trying to combine different flavors together to make new ones. Today’s is […]
In England, there is a snack/dessert called Flapjacks. These are very similar to granola bars but sweeter. You can mix any kind of add-ins you want, like chocolate chips, nuts, dried fruit, etc… or just eat them as is. Golden Syrup is where a lot of the sweetness comes from – it’s a cross between […]
It’s beginning to feel a lot like fall these days – Halloween decorations, pumpkin candles burning in the background, Nora Jones playing in the kitchen…. Fall! I knew I wanted a little treat to go along with all Autumn sites and smells. So when Tieghan Gerard of halfbakedharvest posted this ‘bread’ (aka, cake), this was […]
I bake a LOT of muffins… a LOT! Here, you can take a look for yourself. The girls love them, I love them, so, we bake them a lot. And to be honest, we just throw what we have laying around the house into them. Sometimes they’re healthier than others. These are more on that […]
