I love breakfast foods, but I recognize that most of the time there’s just not nearly enough time in a week to have a leisurely sit-down breakfast at home. And fortunately, these cookies are satisfying and delicious enough for the breakfast-lovers, but portable and convenient enough for the busy person. Cook up a batch ofRead more
Alright, here’s one more zucchini recipe! This is definitely worth making before the last of the zucchini leave your garden! You can even freeze the dough (pre-scooped) for later this winter. These cookies are sweet, chewy, nutty, crunchy on the outside, and tender on the inside. I have to say that these jumped up nearRead more
I told you I had a lot of zucchini to use, so here’s the third recipe in a row with those delicious summer zucchini. These cookies are a fantastic treat to make with zucchini. Chocolate chip oatmeal cookies are probably my favorite type of cookie (if I had to choose), and these cookies are everythingRead more
I don’t usually make muffins because they tend to be a bit indulgent, but aren’t quite indulgent enough to feel like a dessert. Well, these muffins are the perfect solution. I loved these because they’re just the right amount of sweet and are full of good-for-you ingredients. These muffins are perfect for breakfast with theirRead more
This was another great recipe from Carroll Cafe. Rhubarb is a great spring plant. It looks like red celery and has a very intense tart flavor when raw. I love baking with rhubarb because the tart flavor works so well in a variety of uses, like pie, bars, scones, and this crisp. This crisp usesRead more
This is another recipe from February’s Carroll Cafe. These bars are chocolatey, sweet, nutty and chewy. Carmelitas are a bit like oatmeal cookies, but with the extra deliciousness of chocolate, caramel and pecans! These are easy to throw together and are easy to customize to your taste preferences. Chocolate Pecan Carmelitas Serves about 18 AdaptedRead more
These cookies were awesome. They’re buttery-delicious with a nice crunch from the toffee and pecans, and a chewy base from the oatmeal. Upon first bite, Mom declared them her new favorite cookie. They’re awesome, a little something different and super easy to whip up. I’d definitely recommend these!! Oatmeal Toffee Cookies Makes about 3 dozenRead more
These oatcakes are dense and hearty and filled with oat-y goodness. I wasn’t sure what I thought of these at first, but they definitely grew on me. They aren’t muffins, they’re way too dense and substantial to be muffins. But that makes them a great breakfast or snack, they have serious staying power. These areRead more
These cookies are scrumptious. They’re kind of like coconut macaroons, with a chewy, crunchy, sweet nutty flavor. They definitely don’t taste vegan, and while they’re a little crumbly, they definitely hold their shape long enough to get in your mouth, what more could you need? I’m still figuring coconut oil out, but I imagine thatRead more
This is my grandma’s recipe. Mom used to make it when we were little, but I hated it. These days I’m making up for all the times I didn’t eat this granola as a child. Can’t get enough! So you might as well make a double recipe when you try it. I’ve made a fewRead more
