Lemon-Blueberry-Banana Muffins I shared this recipe a few years ago and I've been craving these all day long! This is another breakfast muffin I baked for my mornings at work. These muffins are ooey, gooey and chewy thanks to all of the fruit and lemon juice. I should also point out that even though I used whole wheat flour, the muffins are ...

Crusty Homemade Bread
Crusty Homemade Bread When I think about a dish I'd find potentially intimidating, homemade bread is at the top of the list. I don't think it's the level of difficulty but rather the investment. The ultimate commodity; time. It takes a really long time for bread (I'm not sure a bread machine would help with this?). Note to self- look in to a ...

Soft and Chewy Dinner Rolls
Soft and Chewy Dinner Rolls I’m lazy. I admit it. I made chili for dinner and instead of going to the store in the rain with a fussy 20 month old and a cranky 3-year-old boy who wears size 5 to buy dinner bread, I made dinner rolls. I will say this though; I’m inspired. These delicious rolls have inspired a plethora of slider recipes, stay tuned ...

(Healthy) Banana Muffins
(Healthy) Banana Muffins I am definitely on a breakfast muffin kick! These muffins are BANANA, I’d even like to suggest extra banana-y but clearly, it isn’t a word. I have compromised in this recipe and done half whole wheat flour and half white flour (eeek) and wow what an incredible difference; these are light enough that you can’t tell they’re ...
Spiced Zucchini Muffins
Spiced Zucchini Muffins This recipe is dedicated to everyone who has a friend begging to give away the ample zucchini from their garden this summer.
