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….

Gluten Free Dairy Free Lemon Thyme Donuts

This past week, we busted out my daughter’s real porcelain tea set she got from my mom for Christmas. When any of her granddaughters become old enough to play with it responsibly, my mom gives them a beautiful, working tea set. We set it aside after Christmas, and Eloise has been asking daily when we…

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,…

Cinnamon Peach Oat Cakes

We are officially moved into our new house! Boxes are everywhere and we can’t find anything, but we are already enjoying our new city. I got to sneak away to the farmer’s market on Saturday, and it was incredible. It was exactly how I always imagined a farmer’s market should be based on how they…

Grandaddy’s Oat Bran Muffins

I have learned countless things from my dad. How to “box out” in basketball comes to the top of my mind. Other life lessons include always making sure my spatula is clean when flipping pancakes, leaving a campsite better than I found it, peanut butter both sides of bread when making a sandwich, and, my…
