This quick bread is a great way to use up some of the last zucchini of the summer, and mixes in carrots and apple, making a nice tender crumb. I left out the chocolate chips to keep this more of a breakfast bread, and it’s just lightly sweetened. If you prefer a sweeter bread feelRead more
These muffins are fantastic. I doubled the original recipe (because 9 muffins that the original made is way too few), and then as Mom and I helped ourselves to a second, and Dad said he liked them. We decided we needed to make more. So I made another batch, this time tripling the original soRead more
I made these muffins for breakfast on Thanksgiving, and my family devoured the first batch so quickly that I made a second batch. These are tender and toothsome. The cranberries are bright, tart bursts surrounded by just sweet enough crumb. The oats and walnuts keep them chewy and filling. I used chopped black walnuts thatRead more
My favorite Finn, who introduced me to Finnish Oven Pancakes, makes fantastic Finnish Cinnamon Rolls. These rolls are delicate and lightly sweetened, the dough is spiced with cardamom and the middle is spread with cinnamon. While these aren’t nearly as sweet or decadent as your typical American sticky buns, they’re light and doughy and utterlyRead more
Yesterday we had a fellowship lunch at church and I made vegetarian chili. This chili is such a crowd pleaser. It’s hearty, stick-to-your-ribs, comfort food that’s healthy too! So to change things up a bit, I decided to make this pumpkin cornbread to go with my traditional chili. I also served up my grandma’s deliciousRead more
I have a horrible habit of checking my email on my phone before I even turn on a light in the morning. I put off getting out of bed as long as possible. Last week I saw this recipe from one of my favorite bloggers, and I immediately knew that this was my breakfast. IRead more
I don’t usually make muffins because they tend to be a bit indulgent, but aren’t quite indulgent enough to feel like a dessert. Well, these muffins are the perfect solution. I loved these because they’re just the right amount of sweet and are full of good-for-you ingredients. These muffins are perfect for breakfast with theirRead more
I’ve been getting tons of zucchini and summer squash from my CSA. It’s a challenge to keep up with them all, but these muffins are definitely going to be made again. After my cousins came over for an impromptu sleepover, I made these in the morning to give them a healthy treat for breakfast. EveryoneRead more
I made these waffles at the same time I was making the savory cheddar scallion waffles. I had a ton of ripe bananas and figured that if I was getting out the waffle iron I might as well get twice the use out of it. I don’t frequently get to try new things with myRead more
It’s always great to find another use for a waffle iron, and these savory waffles are fantastic! I made these for brunch this past weekend, and while my friends were dubious about savory waffles, they were convinced by these. They’re crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, with salty cheese and bright scallions throughout.Read more
