A blog full of sweets and treats that are delicious, fun and simple to create.
I’m getting ready for a busy weekend wearing my “dance mom” hat, so I needed to whip up something that is delicious, full of whole grains, has some protein and tastes good enough that my dancing daughter will be more than happy to start her day with it (extra point if it travels well for mid-day snacks). Muffins for the win! Peanut Butter Banana White Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Muffins! I wasn’t completely sure how this combo of flavors would work {Read More}
I talked last week about some of the things I use in place of all purpose flour in my baked goods and one of the ingredients I sometimes use is oats. I have often replaced part of my flour with ground oats, but have never swapped it out completely. I decided it was time to try making muffins only using oatmeal – no flour at all. While the result probably won’t be winning any beauty contests, they are darn {Read More}
It’s no secret I’m a huge muffin and quick bread fan, and today I have a great recipe for you. A super delicious Pumpkin Banana Walnut Bread – and it’s packed full of good stuff! Made with white whole wheat flour it provides whole grains, using a bit extra pumpkin and banana lets you cut way back on oil while providing Vitamin A and Potassium, and Diamond Walnuts provide protein, fiber and vitamins and minerals. Such a great way to {Read More}
I love muffins. They are quick and easy to make. You can pack a nice amount of nutrition into them. They freeze well. They are portable. They are perfect portions. They make for a super fast breakfast. Really, what’s not to love? We almost always have some Banana Chocolate Chip & Pumpkin Muffins in our freezer. With some fresh blueberries in my fridge, I decided it was time to make some Blueberry Muffins. Since my Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins are {Read More}
Without a doubt the recipe I make the most often is my chocolate chip banana bread muffins. They are quite possibly my proudest creation as a baker, because my kids love them and they are pretty darn healthy for being a tasty muffin. Well, at least until you slather butter all over them (the things you’ll do for a photo…). As I was mixing up a batch this morning I realized that I had yet to try muffins in my {Read More}
While one may think that we eat chocolate covered pretzels and cake pops morning, noon and night around here, the reality is a little bit healthier. I have some very picky eaters, so I’m always trying to find recipes that blend child friendly taste and some healthy mom approved goodness. And when I say I have picky eaters, I mean PICKY. My eight year old will spend 15 minutes looking over a food before trying it. I like to think {Read More}
The banana chocolate chip muffins at Paradise Bakery are one of my all time favorite muffins. They are insanely good. While ignorance is bliss, it’s safe to assume they are also insanely high in fat and calories (though really super duper extra yummy ones). Because I can never leave well enough alone, I had to come up with a copy cat Paradise Bakery muffin recipe. This banana chocolate chip muffin recipe, or banana chocolate chip bread recipe if you are {Read More}
