Everyday Fare With Extraordinary Flair
This healthy homemade Pumpkin Spice Granola Recipe is sweetly spiced, and perfect for quick breakfasts on busy mornings. And it’s vegan and gluten free!
I try not to, but every time my pantry granola stash runs low I have a strange sense of urgency to hurry up and make a new batch.
For some strange reason granola has that effect on me, lol. I guess I just love having it around!…
This Easy Peach Crisp Recipe with Maple Oats combines juicy peaches with a nutty oat topping and a hint of spice. It’s easy to whip up and perfect for summer brunch or dessert! There are few things that say late summer better than a perfectly ripe peach with its intensely juicy sweetness. If summer flavor could be bottled, it would be liquid gold peach juice that’s the color of sunshine....
Apple Slab Pie with Nutty Oat Crumble Topping has a sweet spiced apple filling with a hint of vanilla, an all-butter pastry crust, and a nutty oat crumble topping. If you ever find yourself with a pie-loving mob at your door, this recipe will prove itself indispensable....
Inspired by Little Debbie Oatmeal Creme Pies, these Oatmeal Cream Pies with Rum-Raisin Brown Sugar Buttercream Frosting give those classic cookie sandwiches a grown-up twist! Was anyone else a fan of the Little Debbie cream-filled oatmeal cookie sandwiches (aka Oatmeal Creme Pies) as a kid? They were a very rare treat for my sister and I! Mom never bought them, which made them all the more fun to eat at our friends’ houses when mom wasn’t around. (Shhh, lol.)...
Spiced Maple Pecan Muesli Granola is a delicious cross between muesli and granola; it’s richly spiced and aromatic with maple and makes a beautiful breakfast on a busy morning. I’m not really a big cereal eater; actually, even as a kid cereal wasn’t really my thing. There were a couple flavors I liked, but they were older people-type cereals, like Shredded Wheat and Grape Nuts, rather than the sugary kinds most lids preferred (but I did have a soft spot for Cinnamon Toast Crunch!). I was always a bit odd, lol....
These gluten-free No-Bake Oatmeal Cookie Energy Bites are the perfect treat to keep in the fridge to grab pre-workout or any time you need an energy boost! In college I used to exercise early in the morning on an empty stomach and it didn’t phase me, not even during a long spin class! (Of course I was pretty ravenous post-workout though.) Now I find that I need to eat just a little something about 30 minutes before a workout not only for an energy boost, but also to keep from getting dizzy or light-headed mid-workout....
I remember going to Christmas cookie exchange parties with my mom when I was pretty young. I’ll admit, other than the cookies (of course) it was a pretty boring affair. I always enjoyed the loot that we went home with though; it was fun to get to sample a variety of things without actually having to make 20 different recipes....
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....
Butterscotch Oatmeal Cookies (also called Oatmeal Scotchies and Oatmeal Scotch Chippers) are a delicious pairing of sweet butterscotch chips, nutty walnuts, and hearty oats! Another summer gone, and gosh, it went fast! I remember as a kid, summers seemed to be never-ending. I’d spend hours each day riding my bike, swimming, or exploring, only surfacing to eat and sleep....
I love making quick bread or muffins on relaxed weekend mornings. There’s something almost magical about a late summer Saturday morning…waking up to the sound of birds chirping and sunlight streaming in your window…and of course knowing that you have the whole day free to do whatever you want! Those kinds of mornings call for a special start to the day....
