For my Tale of Two Thanksgiving Pies, peanut butter lends an unexpectedly delicious twist to apple and pumpkin pies: Vegan Apple Peanut Butter Pie, and my personal favorite, Maple Peanut Butter Pumpkin Pie with Maple Peanut Butter Whipped Cream! I come bearing pies today, which is a rare occurrence indeed for me. And better yet, they both have a twist (because you probably don’t need another recipe for classic pumpkin or apple pie!)....
Stovetop Maple Chicken Hot Pot Recipe {Plus Maple Cookbook Review, Giveaway, and a Q&A with Katie Webster}
This paleo Stovetop Maple Chicken Hot Pot recipe hits all the right flavor notes (sweet, salt, and spice), making it addictively delicious and a great way to showcase the versatility of maple syrup. Some of my all-time favorite food memories from being a kid involve a big stack of pancakes topped with a pat of butter and drizzled with amber-colored, sticky-sweet maple syrup. Growing up, pancakes in our house were a very rare event, saved for birthdays and holidays, which made the ordeal even more special....
10-Minute Warm Maple-Dijon Brussels Sprout Salad with Pecans
You know what I think is really weird? How something I eat literally all.the.time can rarely make an appearance on the blog....
Maple Walnut Cheesecake Truffles {Dairy-Free; Gluten-Free; Naturally-Sweetened}
With that evil temptation of a holiday coming at us this Friday, I had to take preemptive measures. Otherwise, I knew I’d be doomed....
Paleo Maple-Cinnamon Granola {Grain-Free; Gluten-Free; Nut-Free; Naturally-Sweetened}
So, granola. I won’t even try to sell you on it because I know you’re probably already a fan. And if you are, you will probably be interested in my Pumpkin Spice Granola, which is one of my all-time favs. And if you’re not, I’d say avert your eyes or X out of this window…but I’m not going to say that because this granola is so unlike a traditional granola that you might just like it....
Maple-Mustard Glazed Chicken
There’s something about this meal (or maybe it’s my photos of this meal) that screams ‘70’s to me. (Which is a little weird since I wasn’t even born yet in the ‘70’s, but I think I’m remembering episodes of The Brady Brunch, which I used to watch like it was my job when I was growing up…I was convinced I was Jan and my younger sister was a combo of both Marcia and Cindy, lol.)...
Mini Maple-Cinnamon-Walnut Turnover Cookies
This year I wanted to come up with a healthier holiday cookie that doesnt necessarily taste healthy. Something that I could serve to my family for dessert along with tea and coffee at one of my parents family dinners and have people be satisfied with dessert not left wanting something else. Ive been in the mood for Maamoul, which are Middle Eastern filled cookies. Perhaps the most common filling for these cookies is dates, but my mother-in-law also makes versions with walnuts and pistachios. For the walnut, she makes two different flavors: 1) cinnamon and 2) rose and orange blossom water-scented. The cinnamon-walnut are […]...
Butternut-Maple Butter and Spiced Maple Scones
A couple weeks ago I was at a farmers’ market and I couldn’t help but stock up on winter squash. (Don’t blame me though…who could turn down a beautiful sugar pumpkin for $1?!) I also got a gorgeous, nearly four-pound butternut squash for under $2. And maybe the best part (even though it isn’t squash), was a huge (and I do mean huge…it was also almost four pounds!) rutabaga that I picked up for $1! When you buy more than you can use, you’re basically at the point where a bargain is no longer a bargain. Luckily, this was not the case since all the […]...
Autumnal Afternoon Tea
A couple weeks ago I hosted a cozy afternoon tea with an autumnal flair. It was so much fun and there was talk of making it seasonal affair, which I think is a wonderful idea! I’m going to be sharing the recipes I made throughout the next month or so, but for now I’m going to let the photos do the talking....
Maple Pecan Shortbread
Maple Pecan Shortbread cookies are rich and buttery, with the complex sweetness of maple and nutty crunch from pecans. These little lovelies are another recipe that was inspired by Tim Hortons. They sell boxes of maple shortbread with some kind of nut (I can’t remember if it’s walnuts or pecans); the cookies are good, but the idea has the potential to be great, which is why I wanted to try my hand at a homemade version....
