These donuts are an explosion of color. They have a soft, cakey inside with a crisp glaze to crackle when you bite into them. We like using a metal donut pan for these, but a silicone one will work as well. They are a favorite birthday breakfast around our house, but I recommend making them…

Cherry Smoothie
This smoothie is as easy as it is delicious. My littlest likes smoothies on the thin side, so if you’d like this creamier, use 1 1/2 cups of milk instead. We also call this smoothie “pink milk” and that goes over well with the littles. Ingredients 1 cup frozen cherries 1 frozen banana 2 cups…
Southern Style Biscuits
I grew up eating biscuits at least twice a week with dinner. It was our bread of choice. Growing up in a family of 6, these biscuits helped ensure everyone at the table had something they were excited to eat and made sure everyone left with a full tummy. The topping choices are endless! Try…
Mini Quiche
I love these cute little quiche for two main reasons! First, the wonton mostly keeps the egg from sticking to your muffin tin and acts like a cupcake liner. Still be sure to spray liberally with cooking spray before putting the wonton in though! Second, I love that it adds variety to our morning routines….
Easy Apple Oatmeal
Cooking seasonally is one of my favorite themes to incorporate. It just makes me feel like a productive human. I love that produce is fresher, cheaper, and more delicious. Our two apple trees are bursting with apples. We’ve been having them raw at every meal, but I need to amp up my usage! This easy…
Gluten Free Yeasted Overnight Waffles
There is something so wonderful about waking up to fresh batter in the fridge. No cracking eggs or mixing twelve ingredients before the coffee is ready. I like to whip up the batter just before I tidy the kitchen after dinner. That way, I’m not making much more mess, and I can throw all the…
Citrus French Toast Sticks
I don’t know why, but I have been obsessed with breakfast food lately. I cannot get enough, and I am listening to the craving. I never understood the appeal of french toast over pancakes until I used proper bread. As much as a appreciate whole wheat bread, you just don’t get the same custardy middle…
Most Buttery Gluten Free Pancakes Yet
I am on a pancake kick. I have accepted it. I have even considered starting a second blog just to document my obsession. This new pancake recipe is my husband’s favorite texture so far. I think it has something to do with the butter in the batter and also cooking them in butter. They came…
Simple Oat Cakes
I have had in my brain for a while, the concept of a simple, whole grain pancake. I wanted it to be whole grain, sweetener free (so that I feel good giving it to the baby), and obviously delicious enough for me to want to eat it. I think I finally have it. I give…
Pear + Buckwheat Pancakes (Gluten and Dairy Free)
I’ve been craving a hot breakfast in the morning lately. Is it because I want to warm up the kitchen on these frigid cold winter mornings? Possibly. One of my endless goals in life is to create the perfect pancake. One that is easy to make, will sustain me all morning, and, obviously, tastes delicious….
Breakfast Chalupa
It was always an exciting night when I walked into the kitchen and saw the giant sheet pan of golden fried corn tortillas resting on the stove, with my mom poking the future chalupas around her electric skillet full of bubbling oil. I knew that soon they would be smeared with refried beans, ground beef,…
Pumpkin Spice Oat Pancakes
“These pancakes are better than normal pancakes” -my husband. For those of you who don’t know him, this is high praise, especially considering it was unprompted. The verdict was that he likes them more because they are “heartier” than a standard pancake, and I agree. The flavor is festive, the texture is soft, with a…
