Sweet Potato Scones

What is breakfast? “a meal eaten in the morning, the first of the day” But that’s not what breakfast really is. To some it’s not even in the picture as most are rushing to get out the door on time or simply grab whatever’s closest and edible. However, breakfast for me is a special time…

No Bake Peanut Butter Pie

When life decides to give you lemons, some people have sour attitudes (you see what I did there?), some make lemonade, and some throw them back. and run to their kitchens so they can eat their peanut butter pie. Some, meaning me. I must say, this pie was created right at the brink of a chaotic meltdown….

My Favourite Banana Bread

I’m one of those people you could describe in one word. People tell me this all the time. One word. Four letters. Lazy. Oh, I’m sorry, were you expecting me to say love? Psssh, I wish. It’s embarrassing how lazy I really am. Some of the things I do every day kind of confirm my…

Cinnamon Coffee Cake

In life, my decisions are influenced on the most random happenings. I’m not a very planned person when it comes to everyday things like making coffee or remembering to feed my cats (don’t worry, one’s on a diet so it doesn’t matter if she skips a meal or two) so when I make a decision…

Vegan Pumpkin Spice Cake

So I was browsing the internet around midnight last night and was reading a post about a pumpkin cake. Do you know what the first sentence said? ‘pumpkin desserts are popular among the fall AND WINTER months’ Notice I emphasized AND WINTER so you would understand that I’m actually not late with fall recipes, just spreading…

Pumpkin Spice Cupcakes

I do realize it’s now December and that Christmas recipes are supposed to overflow from my kitchen, but I still have pumpkin recipes to share with you. Don’t worry, the Christmas recipes are coming for sure, but for now I need to squeeze in a couple late fall recipes.

Glazed Cornbread

To me, on a brisk autumn day, there’s nothing better than a warm, moist, slice of cornbread with a big bowl of steaming soup. (Let’s remember we’re talking about real food, not dessert, because if you want to get me talking about dessert just show me a slice of cake. But for now it’s all…

Apple Cinnamon Pecan Muffins

It’ s November. The leaves are finally a vibrant shade of red and the air is nice and crisp. After all this time I can finally pull out my boots and sweaters without worrying about the weather being too hot. My cats are going crazy with the leaves that have fallen outside and will sprint…

Peanut Butter Cups

I made Reese’s Cups of my own. All mine, no one could eat them. Except when my friend Lauren came over with her mom and we all stuffed our faces with these little candies. I found it ironic that the night before I made these my dad bought one of those jumbo size bags of…

Honey Banana Bread

I woke up at 6:30 this morning so I could bake before school. That’s not really too early in the morning but for me I had to put my alarm underneath my windowsill so I would have to get out of bed. I stumbled downstairs into the kitchen and started pulling out ingredients. I had…
