A blog full of sweets and treats that are delicious, fun and simple to create.
Can I tell you a secret. Before this weekend I had never, ever, made sweet potatoes from anything other than a can. Hanging head in shame. I grew up on the canned variety, so I just stuck with those. Little did I know how much I was missing out! As part of McCormick’s Seasonal Seven Program, McCormick asked if I would like to make their Roasted Sweet Potatoes With Cinnamon Pecan Crunch and share it with you. I am so {Read More}
I’ll be honest, more than once (or twice), I’ve found myself on websites on Thanksgiving day, frantically looking for cooking times, recipes and how to tell if my turkey is done. You always want that big gathering to go off just right, so I thought I would put together some resources for Thanksgiving tips, tricks, advice, help & even hotlines. From buying your bird, how to prepare and carve it, the stuff on the sides (both light and gluten {Read More}

First of all, even the box it comes in is {Read More}
While I love me some pumpkin recipes any time of the year, I know that it’s not everyone’s thing. I also know that sometimes you get asked to bring a “non-pumpkin” dessert to a Thanksgiving get-together. I thought it would be good to find some festive, full of fall flavor options for Thanksgiving desserts that are not made with pumpkin. So here are over 40 non-pumpkin dessert ideas from other bakers and bloggers for you to whip up for {Read More}
Can I interest you in a cinnamon roll? How about a gingerbread cinnamon roll? This recipe is amusing to me because my husband actually had quite an opinion about it. In his mind gingerbread and cinnamon were not friends. Then we both started proving each other wrong by finding recipes and products that did or did not contain cinnamon. Apparently neither of us likes to be wrong. And I wonder why we have such stubborn kids. But we both love {Read More}
Stopped in to Trader Joe’s for a few things yesterday morning and spotted some new items and a few favorites. Here’s what was in my store, which is ready for all of the Thanksgiving Shoppers… Peppermint is in store, but no Peppermint Joe Joe’s to be found just yet. These Chocolate Peppermint Cupcakes look like they could hold one over until the Joe Joe’s arrive. Or maybe some Chocolate Peppermint Brownies. Chocolate Blizzard Cookies. Trader Joe’s Candy Cane Green Tea {Read More}
I am so excited to have a guest post today from one of my favorite bloggers, Hayley from The Domestic Rebel.

Yeah, those sound right up my alley! Today she is going to share a recipe that is perfect for this time of {Read More}
I hit Trader Joe’s this morning and have to say I was a bit surprised that it wasn’t packed full of Christmas goodies. Trader Joe’s is however ready to celebrate Thanksgiving and I have to say it was a bit refreshing to not have Thanksgiving skipped over. Though I really would have liked some Peppermint Joe Joe’s. Just saying. So here’s what was in store at Trader Joe’s… Trader Joe’s Pumpkin Pie Trader Joe’s Pumpkin Macarons The one Peppermint find {Read More}
I mentioned in my last post that Tuesday mornings are my errand running time, so in addition to Target I hit Walmart and Michaels (lucky for me these are all in about 1/8th of a mile of each other!). I found some really fun stuff to share, things like Gingerbread Oreos and Eggnog Candy Melts… WALMART – I was on the hunt for Gingerbread Oreos. They were not in the holiday section or the cookie section or any of the {Read More}
I whipped up these cookies to bring with us on our recent vacation over in San Diego. As I often try and do, I replaced the all purpose flour with white whole wheat flour, replaced some of the butter with Greek yogurt and added in some oatmeal from an extra whole grain kick. They were fantastic. I kept them in the fridge in San Diego, mainly because leaving anything out seemed to result in the kitchen becoming a bit too {Read More}
One of the most popular giveaways I’ve had here on Love From The Oven was the Fun Fall Flavors Giveaway I did last year. I bought fun fall stuff and gave it away, what’s not to like about that? So let’s do it again this year. I’m all about an excuse to shop for anything Halloween related. I love, love, LOVE fall (hey, the end of summer in Arizona is a very good thing, especially since summer is 11.5 months {Read More}
First, I promise not every post for the rest of the year will include pumpkin. I go a little bit crazy when fall is near, as it’s my absolute favorite time of the year. So pumpkin fans, I’ve got you covered. Non-pumpkin fans, I promise lots of chocolate and caramel and pretzels soon. For today though, it’s cinnamon rolls. Pumpkin Whole Wheat Cinnamon Rolls. These are so. flipping. good. As often as possible I try to substitute white whole wheat {Read More}
