I was actually very surprised at how much I liked this recipe. When it comes to pancakes, I tend to stick to the tried and true fluffy buttermilk recipe, but I wanted to try something a little different by substituting almond flour for regular flour. It’s a somewhat healthier way to make pancakes, and I’ve …
These sweet potato latkes are the ultimate comfort food. They’re perfectly crispy on the outside, slightly soft on the inside, with a savory and sweet flavor profile. Yum! Latkes are traditionally a classic Jewish food that are commonly enjoyed during Hannukah. I’m not Jewish, but I did grow up enjoying potato pancakes that my Ukrainian …
I don’t always eat muffins for breakfast, but when I do I enjoy them homemade, moist, and delicious. It’s an added bonus if I make a seasonal recipe, like these maple pumpkin muffins that are getting me in the mood for Thanksgiving later this week. I don’t think I have to tell you that pumpkin …
Why settle for regular banana bread when you can make a dessert that’s 100x more decadent – like this marbled banana bread (cake)? We pretty much always have bananas in our household. Besides being a great healthy breakfast, snack, or working lunch, you don’t have to worry about bananas going bad, because there’s always something …
One of my favorite breakfast dishes features some of my favorite flavors. Tomato! Garlic! Paprika! Shakshuka is a dish common in Israel, other parts of the Middle East, and increasingly trendy brunch restaurants, but it’s surprisingly very easy to make right at home. And I highly recommend it, given the medley of delicious flavors and …
You know what sounds great for this weekend? Sleeping in and making banana pancakes…kind of like that Jack Johnson song. And now it’s stuck in my head. But in all seriousness, these immensely fluffy pancakes are a great idea for a lazy weekend morning. The mashed bananas give them some extra substance while real buttermilk …
Oatmeal is one of my favorite weekday breakfast meals, because it’s quick and easy but also tastes delicious. It’s an especially cozy meal in the fall and winter, so I’m getting really gung ho about making oatmeal again. I also love that you can dress it up however you want, whether you want something sweeter, …
When I make baked goods like banana bread, zucchini bread, pumpkin bread, etc, I always have an internal debate with myself: is this bread or is it a cake? My boyfriend always says, “I’m gonna have a slice of cake,” and I grumble exasperatedly, “It’s not cake, it’s bread!” Is it bread, though? Or is …
This dish is like a hybrid between a quiche and a frittata, starring one of my favorite summer veggies: zucchini. Think of it as more like a soufflé, actually. The eggs make it nice and fluffy while the addition of flour and baking powder allows the bake to rise and take on a tender crust. …
When I look at the forecast in the morning and it’s shaping up to be another hot day with temperatures reaching well into the nineties, the only thing I want to put in my body is something cold. Make it fruity and filling, and you’re looking at a grade A breakfast. And there’s nothing like …
