Carrot Cake Whoopie Pies

Happy Wednesday! For those of you who don’t know what a whoopie pie is, it’s basically two pieces of cake in the form of a cookie, with frosting in between. It looks like an ice cream sandwich, but it’s cake and frosting. And it’s delicious! This past weekend was my […]

Banana Muffins

Last week was Passover, and for those who follow it, there are a lot of food items that are off limits. It differs slightly between backgrounds and families, but overall bread and items that rise are off limits. Now that it’s over, I had to make these Banana Muffins and […]

Oven-Fried Potatoes

Some days, I’m just craving french fries. Okay, maybe every day if I’m not lying – but I usually don’t give in. A healthier alternative is to bake potatoes into fries at home – and this recipe can work for breakfast potatoes as well! It’s a versatile ingredient and these […]

Healthy, Flourless Peanut Butter Muffins

Happy Wednesday! I don’t know about you, but I love the combination of peanut butter and chocolate – it’s a famous combo in Reeses and it’s a popular flavor. It’s currently Passover, so we’re restricted from anything with flour, corn, beans, and more in our household – so I wanted […]

Spiced Doughnut Holes

Sometimes you just need something comforting, warm, and delicious – and these doughnut holes fit the bill! They’re bite sized, so they’re perfect if you want something small as a treat, but they’re also great if you want a whole bowl full! The doughnuts themselves are made with cinnamon and […]

Lemon Bread and Muffins

This weekend is the final countdown to the last season of Game of Thrones. Since it’s arguably one of the most popular shows of all time, I’m sure a lot of you watch it as well. My husband and I have been watching since it first came on in 2011, […]

Pumpkin Doughnuts

Happy Sunday! I’ve been on a cinnamon and pumpkin kick recently, and these doughnuts follow along with that trend. This is a moist, delicious baked doughnut recipe, and the doughnuts are coated in a mixture of cinnamon, sugar, and brown sugar. It’s sweet, full of spices, and will leave you […]

Pumpkin Streusel Muffins

Even though it’s now Spring, pumpkin is still one of my favorite flavors! These muffins are great any time of year – and they’re perfect for a spring brunch! They have the pumpkin spice flavor, but it’s not overwhelming, and they go well with or without chocolate chips! I think […]

Cinnamon Glazed Doughnuts

Cinnamon is a flavor that I can’t get enough of – I’m obsessed with any spice cake (carrot and pumpkin for example), and it’s great on a variety of breakfast items and dishes. These doughnuts focus on that cinnamon flavor, but the base is still a vanilla cake, so it’s […]

Blueberry Muffins

Happy Friday! My husband and I have lived in a few states together – California, Washington, and Massachusetts – plus a summer in Hong Kong! The food in each was different, and all good, but nothing beats the produce in Southern California. We have great options, all year round! With […]
