A blog full of sweets and treats that are delicious, fun and simple to create.
I make a lot of muffins. No, really, a LOT. They are a staple in our home for breakfast and snacks and are hands down my favorite way to pack some whole grains, fruits, veggies and even protein into the morning, while pleasing some incredibly picky eaters. While my daughter could probably eat the same muffin for months at a time, I get bored making the same muffin over and over. This weekend I decided to take the same ingredients {Read More}
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 always like to do something fun for birthday breakfasts. And since we pretty much see cinnamon rolls as the greatest breakfast food ever, I usually end up with some sort of celebratory cinnamon rolls. For my little one’s birthday this weekend, I decided to kick up my typical ‘sprinkles on the top’ thing and go all out. Funfetti Cinnamon Rolls! Yeah, that’s totally not a bad way to start the day. Add some cute little flags or candles, and {Read More}
Any time I can bring the flavors of a cookie, to a muffin, I pretty much consider that winning. Especially if I can do it with whole wheat and a little kick of protein from Greek yogurt. These Peanut Butter Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookie Muffins are basically awesome. And who doesn’t want awesome for breakfast??? After recently discovering The Sneaky Chef’s No-Nut Butter, my daughter has been asking me to create a variety of muffins using it (muffins are her {Read More}
Clearly, given all of the muffin recipes I’ve shared on here, we love muffins. Such a great breakfast or snack, they freeze incredibly well and I’ve found them so easy to make over from the calorie and oil laden ones at the bakery into something that packs a nutritional punch, while keeping them completely delicious and acceptable to picky eaters. Today’s recipe certainly fits that bill. Chocolate & Peanut Butter (or No-Nut Butter if you have a nut allergy in {Read More}
Wow, do I have tasty muffin recipe for you today. Peanut Butter Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins – made safe for those with nut allergies thanks to The Sneaky Chef’s No-Nut Butter, a fabulous peanut butter alternative. If you are fine with nuts, this recipe can be made with regular peanut butter, but I am so excited to a great option for those with nut allergies (like my kiddo). These muffins are SO good. Seriously, make them, be it with peanut {Read More}
So I didn’t plan on making whole wheat cinnamon rolls. Really. I really just planned to make some regular cinnamon rolls for a friend for her birthday. But as soon as I put my little one down for her nap I realized I was severely lacking in all purpose flour (yeah, that’s kind of a baking blogger sin). So, with a brand new bag of my much loved white whole wheat flour in the pantry I said what the heck, {Read More}
So I think that I might have found the most incredible recipe ever. And I do not say that lightly. Let me just show you. Caramel Pecan Rolls anyone? The recipe for these over the top delicious rolls comes from folks over at the Become A Better Baker. They asked if I would like to check out their series of videos and possibly share one, along with a recipe, with my readers. Um, yes, I think I would be {Read More}
I stand by my theory that muffins are the ultimate for quick weekday breakfasts. Especially when you manage to get a fruit, a veggie and whole wheat into those muffins. As I prefer my muffins to be, this recipe is simple and straight forward. Also, while I have used half pumpkin and half banana, you could easily only one or the other. You could also switch out walnuts for the pecans. This recipe makes 12 large muffins or you could {Read More}
I make a lot of muffins. I share a lot of muffins here on the blog. I have a lot of muffins in my freezer. They are one of my go to foods for my picky eaters for breakfast, and for years I’ve been playing with muffin recipes to create muffins that are yummy enough to be eaten without a second thought, but also have whole grains and at least half the fat of standard muffins knocked out of them. {Read More}
Another new muffin recipe for you today. And wow do I LOVE this one. I’ve been making muffins that are inspired by chocolate chip cookies, but these muffins follow the lead of another great cookie – the Oatmeal Scotchie. Oh how I love the combo of oatmeal and butterscotch. Such a yummy way to start the day that would be perfect with a nice cup of coffee (head over to this post to enter my awesome Millstone Coffee giveaway). If {Read More}
Who says that Halloween sweets and treats have to be all about the after dark fun? How about starting the day with some Halloween Donuts? I think yes! If you haven’t made homemade donuts, they are really simple. I use this donut pan, but if you do not have a donut pan, you could certainly make them in a muffin pan. These are baked, so while they don’t have the exact same taste/texture as the ones from the donut shop, {Read More}
