Easy Cinnamon Sweet Potato Quick Bread
So I realize this post is coming at you way out of season. I’d blame it on all that time I spent living in the Southern Hem where the seasons are all switched up, but the truth is we recently got this ginormous bag of sweet potatoes and only about half of the people in my house like them. Even then, some of my family members that do like them still seem to think of them as an item reserved for eating at holidays only so that leaves only a few people to eat them. I have no problem having them all to myself basically, and this totally wouldn’t be a problem…

Blueberry Almond Streusel Crumb Muffins (Vegan+GF)
I just typed out “It’s been a muffin since I’ve shared a minute recipe.” That’s pretty much what today’s like, but you know what? It’s the weekend, we’re just gonna go with it. Speaking of that though, how did this weekend sneak up so quickly, you know what I mean? It’s nearly May already. I mean, I know they say time flies but this just feels crazy. So I got a message recently from a friend asking for a specific recipe, one that would be fitting for a some limitations that this friend was trying to stick to, such as, “no refined sugar, only maple syrup”, “no dairy”, and “only whole wheat flour”.…

Cranberry White Chocolate Streusel Muffins
I think it’s a pretty generally observed fact that when one member of a big family gets the flu, everyone has it. Haha, at least when you’ve got little ones. Yep, the season’s bug is going around and I’m gladly getting passed the end of it and I’m feeling thankful it’s a very minor one. For me it was just really annoying mostly because I don’t know what to do with myself when I’m sick. You know, like when you aren’t sick enough to want to lay in bed and do nothing, but still sick enough that you don’t want to do much of anything? Well, at least that’s how it goes…

Carrot Ginger Orange Muffins (Vegan+GF)
Hey again guys. Hopefully your Monday isn’t looking too gray so far. For the record, I put in an order to have this day removed from the calender but unfortunately the “they” in charge of that kind of stuff won’t accept bribes, even if they are in the form of gooey chocolate chip cookies. Hmph. Whatever, their loss right?……. I feel like it’s been a long while since we last talked, how goes it? Did you have awesome weekends? Omg, mine was so packed and crazy with (you’ll never believe this) an enormous amount of cooking. But really, it was slammed. This weekend I got the chance to feed some humungo groups of people. I…

Toasted Pecan Gingerbread Figgy Puddings (Vegan)
I brought you some figgy pudding, I brought you some figgy pudding! Remember when I made rice pudding last week and said that I had another pudding recipe coming that was going to confuse people? Well, this is the one I was talking about. Please tell me I’m not the only one who grew up listening to that line in the lyrics of We Wish You a Merry Christmas and picturing a bowl of purple custard. Anyone? I kind of always felt that line “we won’t go until we get some.” was a little demanding and that figgy pudding must be really something to merit it. There’s no way I can vouch for…

Pecan Streusel Sweet Potato Spice Muffins
I’m kind of freaking out again…. It’s just, I woke up and realized we’re about to start the last month of the year and I’m caught in the storm of emotions that I think is familiar to most of you. I’m really excited (you don’t even know) about the holiday festivities but also a little tiny bit sad that time is speeding by so fast. Maybe that sounds crazy, but hopefully you can understand. Anyway, it’s my nephew’s first Christmas. I think I already mentioned recently but that’s a huge part of why I really want this holiday season to be special for my sister (for my nephew too, but he won’t be…

Crud Muffins……They’re a Thing (Vegan)
So, this post is proof that my older sister and I should never put our heads together on things like this. Haha, we were talking a while ago, about what I should create next, and during our conversation she dropped something on the floor and said “Crud muffins!”. And that was it, we decided then and there that I had to make them. Of course, this then posed the question of, what exactly is a crud muffin? So I’ve been thinking about it and I finally realized that a crud muffin should be a recipe that you use to help clear out the “crud” in your kitchen that has no other particular usage.…
