As my due date approaches, my nesting instinct has kicked in, compelling me to organize, clean, and do other tasks around the house to get ready for baby. Maybe what they call nesting is real, or maybe it’s just a myth, but either way, over the past few weeks I’ve felt the need to clean [...]

Cranberry Orange Muffins Lately Julia has really gotten excited about helping me in the kitchen. This week we decided to bake some cranberry orange muffins. Julia loves to help scoop the flour and sugar into the measuring cups, and give her a spoon or whisk and she is an expert mixer. These muffins were especially [...]

Great Grains Muffins Made with four different grains, these muffins have a heartiness to them that makes them perfect for breakfast on those days when you need something to grab and go. The cornmeal in the muffins gives them an almost savory taste, so they would also be great for a light lunch, paired with [...]
Plum Coffeecake Muffins

Plum Coffeecake Muffins Fresh plums are an ingredient that I would have never thought to bake into a muffin, so when I saw this recipe I was immediately intrigued. My plums were perfectly ripe and sweet, and tasted amazing on their own. After baking inside of these muffins, however, the plums became even sweeter and [...]

Dark Chocolate Cherry Scones These scones are more like dessert than breakfast, but I have no problem with that. While I can sometimes convince myself that muffins are a (sort of) healthy breakfast, I know that scones are not. That doesn’t stop me from baking them or enjoying them, though! I actually used frozen sweet [...]

New York-Style Crumb Cake What’s the best part of a crumb cake? If you answered the crumb topping then you will not be disappointed with this coffeecake. There are plenty of big crumbs to go around in this recipe. The sweet, buttery crumbs top a soft cake layer, which has a wonderfully light texture thanks [...]

Blueberry Scones I am loving the abundance of fresh blueberries available right now, and alongside eating them on my morning oatmeal or just popping them in my mouth plain, these blueberry scones are one of my favorite ways to enjoy them. This recipe calls for an unusual method for shaping the scones, and at first [...]

Banana Cinnamon Muffins These delicious little muffins are surprisingly healthy. Low in sugar and butter, and full of good-for-you bananas and cinnamon, these muffins are a smart choice when you need a fast, portable breakfast. Just add a piece of fruit or a glass of milk and you’re ready to begin your day. The mashed [...]

Peach Streusel Coffee Cake This breakfast treat has everything you could want in a coffeecake: a moist cake layer, fresh fruit, and a crumbly streusel topping. It’s also easy enough to whip up in the morning and then enjoy as part of a brunch or mid-morning snack. Each of the three components can be prepared [...]

Blueberry Muffins I have a few other blueberry muffin recipes on my blog, but I have to say that these are my new favorite. That’s not to say that I will no longer make these Blueberry Oatmeal Muffins, or these Whole Wheat Blueberry Muffins, because I do love both of those recipes as well. But [...]
