I think I looked at about fifty different banana muffin and bread variations before finally deciding to make these muffins. My objective was to make something healthy but special. I didn’t want plain old banana bread and I sure didn’t want something that was boring and dry. Luckly, I had bookmarked Jenny’s recipe for these [...]

Dessert for Breakfast or Breakfast for Dessert
I might be an oatmeal girl most days of the week, but pancakes and other sweet treats will always have a special place in my heart. Often, when we go on vacation, we will try to balance breakfast with an egg white omelet and a side of donuts, pancakes or waffles. We all deserve to [...]
Brown Butter Blueberry Muffins
So despite some unnecessarily stressful back and forth that has been going on in my life, I’m still set to share my news with you on Thursday. Part of me is SO excited, but the rest of me is still nervous/terrified/anxious. I know some of you are eager to know what my news is, but [...]
Triple Chocolate Muffins with a Peanut Butter Swirl
Today was my first day back to real life. The early morning alarm, a half-awake trip to the gym, and then that rush to shower, eat breakfast, pack lunch and basically race against the clock to get to the office on time. I didn’t like it. Did I spend the last three weeks recovering from [...]

Accidentally Scuffins
Sometimes recipe experiments don’t work out. Sometimes they work, just a little differently than you expect. I set out to make scones, but I ended up with scuffins! A scuffin is basically the hybrid of a scone and a muffin. These Cinnamon Apple Chunk Scuffins are hearty, chewy, and flavorful. Like scones, they aren’t too [...]
Peanut Butter Cheesecakes and Avoiding Weight Gain
You already know that my pants don’t fit. I don’t know about you, but I find it nearly impossible to diet around this time of year. It is so cold out that the last thing I want to eat is salad. What really appeals to me are dishes like chili, lasagna, fresh baked cookies… comfort [...]

My Favorite Pumpkin Bread
In case you haven’t noticed, I have a sweet tooth:-) I always have room for dessert, but if you can make a side dish that tastes like a dessert, isn’t that even better? Combining that with the fact that pumpkin is one of my all time favorite dessert flavors, you can understand why I’d be [...]
