Chocolate Peanut Butter Chia Pudding (Tastes Like Healthy Peanut Butter Pie!)

September 10, 2018 by Faith 2 Comments

This Chocolate Peanut Butter Chia Pudding tastes like healthy peanut butter pie, but is nourishing enough to enjoy for breakfast.

I still remember the first time I had peanut butter pie; truthfully, it was by no means healthy peanut butter pie! This wasn’t a pie I grew up with; my mom was an apple and pumpkin pie maker, so I was an adult the first time I had it. I was in college at the time, and it was at a chain diner, I think Perkins, if I’m not mistaken, or maybe it was Denny’s. I remember thinking, Oh wow, that’s what I’ve been missing all this time?! Let’s just say it was pretty dang good, lol.…

Soft and Chewy Peanut Butter Salted Caramels

December 20, 2017 by Faith 2 Comments

Soft and Chewy Peanut Butter Salted Caramels are a beautiful balance of sweet caramel and flaky sea salt, with deep notes of peanut butter. We all have our favorite types of candy; that one thing we can’t resist when we see it at the store. Peanut butter cups, cherry cordials, butter toffee, fudge, to name just a few. For me, when I walk by a candy shop and smell fresh-made caramel, it takes every ounce of willpower to resist. That aroma calls me like a siren....

Salted Peanut Butter and Chocolate Snickers Brown Butter Blondies

October 30, 2017 by Faith Leave a Comment

Salted Peanut Butter and Chocolate Snickers Brown Butter Blondies are gooey little bars of bliss…a great way to use up leftover Halloween candy! Every now and again I get the urge for some kind of junk food. Like a hotdog with a side of fries, or a juicy burger and a chocolate milkshake. Or pizza and wings with blue cheese (yuuummm). Or on the sweeter side, chocolate cake, mint chip ice cream, or blondies. The struggle is real, friends....

Crumble-Topped Peanut Butter Strawberry Jam Bars

September 6, 2017 by Faith 1 Comment

Crumble-Topped Peanut Butter Strawberry Jam Bars utilize that classic flavor favorite combo in a delicious back-to-school lunchtime treat. When it comes to keeping packed lunches interesting, the struggle is real. As a kid I remember getting bored with nearly every type of sandwich my mom packed (which was typically just a rotation between turkey and tunafish with the occasional pb&j thrown in if I was lucky) within the first month of school starting!...

Peanut Butter Nutella Swirl Cookies

November 7, 2016 by Faith 7 Comments

Peanut Butter Nutella Swirl Cookies take regular peanut butter cookies to a whole new level. There are so many the dessert-type things that we sometimes pass off as breakfast. Muffins, which can range anywhere from legitimately healthy, to cupcakes by another name. Syrup-drenched pancakes or waffles, which are usually indulgent enough for dessert as they are, let alone if they’re topped with a scoop of ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. And even sometimes toast can be all decked out to be dessert-worthy!...

A Tale of Two Thanksgiving Pies

November 11, 2015 by Faith 2 Comments

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!)....

Thai-Inspired Street Dogs: Grilled Hot Dogs with Peanutty Garlic, Ginger, and Cilantro Slaw

September 21, 2015 by Faith 14 Comments

These Thai-Inspired Street Dogs boast some of my favorite Thai flavors like peanut, garlic, and ginger in a tasty slaw! What could be better for topping hot dogs? I am a street food junkie, especially when I travel. I think there’s no better way to get to know the cuisine of a different culture than to jump head-first into the food the locals enjoy. (Plus street food has the added benefit of being much more affordable, which means you get to sample more…right?)...

3-Ingredient Chocolate-Covered Peanut Butter Eggs {Reese’s Peanut Butter Eggs Copycat}

March 23, 2015 by Faith 24 Comments

As a kid, I always thought Easter had the best candy as far as holidays go. Jelly Belly jelly beans, Cadbury cream eggs, and Reese’s peanut butter eggs all in one day! (OMG, not to mention Sponge Candy.) What kid wouldn’t go crazy? (First of excitement and then of a sugar rush.)...

Smoky Braised Sausage and White Beans in Savory Peanut Sauce

February 26, 2015 by Faith 3 Comments

Until about a week ago, I thought we weren’t going to see much cold weather here. And then last week hit with the full force of winter; high temps in the teens and about six inches of snow. (After our three previous “snowstorms” that produced less than an inch of accumulated snow each, I was about ready to throw a party to celebrate our snow! Or at least head outside and play in it.)...

Iced Peanut Butter Christmas Tree Cookies

December 9, 2014 by Faith 4 Comments

I’ve never really considered myself a baker. There are certain baked goods (like apple pie for Thanksgiving and cut-out cookies for Christmas) that I steer clear of altogether because I know my mom will make them when the time comes....
