Blackberry bread for breakfast. Blackberry bread for a snack. Blackberry bread for dessert. This easy berry filled quick bread is great any time of day! Have you ever ended up with such a huge haul of fresh berries that you thought to yourself, What am I going to do with all of these? Isn’t that a great problem to have?  I go pick wild blackberries every year and am constantly trying out new recipes to use them in. That’s why…

Sweet with a hint of tart, these Strawberry Rhubarb Muffins are a great way to start your morning. Light and fluffy muffins studded with bits of fresh strawberry and rhubarb and topped with a cinnamon struesel. We get so used to having everything available any time we want it, but it’s just not that way with rhubarb for me. Sometimes you can find frozen rhubarb at the grocery store, but for fresh rhubarb generally there’s just a small window of…

Tea lovers will delight in these Earl Grey Scones. Light and flaky scones are delicately flavored with Earl Grey tea for a tea time treat you can’t resist. You might not know this, but I am a tea fanatic. At any given time I have probably about 30 varieties of tea in my cupboard. I drink it hot. I drink it cold. Most days I have at least 3 cups/glasses of tea. I’ve been wanting to make a recipe with…

Orange spiced monkey bread is the perfect ooey gooey citrusy sweet morning treat! Soft and fluffy biscuit pieces are rolled in orange zest, cinnamon, ground cloves and sugar before being doused in a homemade orange syrup and baked into a golden brown syrupy pull-apart treat!  Growing up my Grandmother always made us cups of orange spiced tea in the winter when we came in from playing outside. There’s just something about the combination of oranges, cinnamon, and cloves that is…

 Creamy eggs, tender asparagus, ham, potatoes and cheese make a hearty breakfast dish that comes together in less than 30 minutes. This ham, asparagus, and potato frittata might sound fancy, but really I just had some odds and ends in my fridge that needed used up! And that, my friends, is the beauty of the frittata. You can have a few odds and ends and actually come up with something delicious that will feed your whole family.  Sidenote: We’ll call…

    These sweet and tender instant oatmeal scones are baked with a crunchy cinnamon sugar topping and made versatile by using instant oatmeal packets! I love a good baking hack, don’t you? I love taking something simple and easy that I already have on hand in the pantry and making it just bit better. I know you all love doing this too, because the most popular recipe on AHB is how to make jiffy cornbread mix better. Well, today…

I’ve partnered with Dole Packaged Foods to bring you this recipe. #SharetheSunshine #DoleDetox #ad Smoothie parfaits are light and fresh, with layers of strawberry, peach, and banana smoothie, chia pudding, granola, and topped with fresh fruit. It’s basically every healthy breakfast you could crave rolled up into one pretty package with only a few minutes prep. Every year there is one thing that I add to my New Year’s resolution list, eat a healthy breakfast! This simple task is just…

Apples, bacon, and cheese make an easy, delicious and out of the box fall breakfast when broiled on top of English muffins. The other day my middle son had me buy enough English muffins that he could make English muffin pizzas for our family for dinner and for his FACS class at school. You know I have teenage boys and his FACS class is full of teenagers, so I basically bought so many English muffins that I could have fed…

These bite-sized, spiced just right pumpkin donuts are topped with a cinnamon cream cheese glaze to  create perfectly poppable pumpkin roll donuts.  Perfectly poppable pumpkin roll donuts–try saying that 5 times fast. If you were to ask any of my coworkers one thing that I loved, they would probably tell you donuts. They might even say that I’m obsessed with donuts. I won’t even try and deny it. Once you’ve had fresh homemade donuts, there’s no turning back. Especially when…

Tender and flaky scones are studded with sweet tart blackberries and topped with a rich cream cheese glaze for a winning combination. I’ll have you know, I already wrote a post about these blackberry cream cheese scones once. But when I was done writing, I read the post and I realized that when it comes to blackberries I have a tendency to say the same thing. My husband loves them. Well you know what? The heck with that.  Yes, he…
