Banana Crumb Muffins
I have mentioned this before but I HATE banana’s… like passionately hate them, but I know some of you love them. So for my banana loving peeps… here you go. A new muffin love… Due to unforeseen circumstances I found myself with 4 bananas that were starting to turn. You have to understand bananas are never in my kitchen so when they started to go bad I knew I need to use them quickly. Muffins seemed like a quick, easy and yummy option… so Banana Crumb Muffins were made. All about the crumb… My perfect muffin always has a crumb topping… ALWAYS! My Pumpkin Crumb Muffins are some of…

Lemon Poppyseed Muffins (GF Option)
Summer Muffin Love! Summer is here and that means it is everything Lemon… and these Lemon Poppyseed Muffins SCREAM Summer! They are tender, busting with lemon goodness and drizzled with a sweet glaze making each bite extra yummy. Hello Crumb Topping! Any good muffin in my world has a crumb topping and these muffins are no different. I added in extra poppyseeds and lemon to make this crumb topping that much better. I know some peeps are not into poppyseeds… you can leave them out all together or just out the crumb topping. I love the extra bit of texture they add, and I also love the bit of…

Gingerbread Muffins
It is Gingerbread season and I am 100% jumping into it! First recipe is muffins… nothing like waking up to the hint of gingerbread in the air. Let’s get gingerbread spicy! The secret to anything gingerbread is the spice blend. Too much ginger and it can be too spicy, too much cinnamon and it drowns everything else out. Too many cloves and you can’t taste anything else, it is all about balance. These muffins have the perfect balance of spice and will be the perfect Holiday treat. A little extra crunch… For me a good muffin is tender, moist and full of flavor. A GREAT muffin has a fun…

Homemade Pigs-in-the-Blanket
Pigs-in-the-Blankets were are a staple in my childhood and even still now… especially these homemade ones. Homemade (well the blanket part at least) … like from scratch My mom would always use crescent rolls for her piggies (that is what would call them), but I don’t always have crescent rolls on hand so I decided it was time to change it up a bit. As much as I love a good crescent roll, I am not into making them from scratch so I decided to go with a more simple approach. This dough is a a cross between biscuit and a light bread. It is super easy to mix up,…

Butter Biscuits… yep butter biscuits
Butter Biscuits= YES PLEASE! For real… y’all these are so, so good (and super easy)!! Butter Biscuits = No rolling! Growing up in the south I am no stranger to biscuits… but I am not the biggest fan of making them. If I do make them I typically made drop biscuits, or now these butter biscuits. Well… unless I am feeling super ambitious I will make these Magnolia Biscuits, but typically just for special occasions. But these butter biscuits… well I will make these anytime. It starts with what else… Butter! I love these because you melt the butter in the dish you will be baking the biscuits in. Not…

Strawberry Bread – aka your summer bread
Strawberry Bread is all I can think about… honestly I am all about the berries right now and especially strawberries. Strawberry Bread Time! Y’all I am so, so excited about this bread. Not only is it super quick to make, but it is LOADED with strawberry goodness. I mean just look at all the strawberries! The bread itself is pretty dense, making it perfect to hold the strawberries in place, and not let them sink to the bottom of the bread. It is also buttery, which I so love! It is on the sweeter side… but not too sweet. It is just so pretty! Not only is…

Oatmeal Cranberry Bran Muffins
Oatmeal Cranberry Bran Muffins are my answer to my mom’s bran muffins. Growing up mom always had these Bran Muffins in the refrigerator ready to bake, well I have updated them just a bit. Cranberry + Oatmeal + Bran = Yes! I love a good muffin for breakfast, or a snack, but I especially love them when there are cranberries, oatmeal and the sweetness of my bran muffins. The cranberries and oats really help cut the sweetness of the muffins while adding in great texture and a bit if tartness. If cranberries are not your thing you can use dried cherries, or another dried berry if wanted, or leave out…

Cinnamon Roll Bites – Your New Go-To Breakfast
Cinnamon Roll Bites are the perfect Christmas morning breakfast. They are quick, easy and bring the wonderful aroma of homemade cinnamon rolls (like these) without all the work. It all starts with Biscuits… These delicious cinnamon roll bites start with canned biscuits. Yep, you read that right… canned biscuits. That is what makes this recipe so easy, you cut up canned biscuits. I used the grands buttermilk biscuits, but you could use whatever you have on hand. PS…Flaky biscuits would be pretty good I bet. Let’s talk Cinnamon & Sugar (& few little something extras) Growing up I ate A LOT of cinnamon toast and these Cinnamon Roll Bites…
