My son requested biscuits for breakfast over the weekend. I have a “go-to” recipe, but sometimes, I like to mix it up and try something new. This recipe had rave reviews, so I decided to give it a go. I noticed that this was a “drop biscuit” recipe and I’ve never tried one before. I…

Buttermilk Drop Biscuits
My son requested biscuits for breakfast over the weekend. I have a “go-to” recipe, but sometimes, I like to mix it up and try something new. I decided to change things up a bit and reinvented my old recipe. I usually roll out the dough. When I mixed all of the ingredients together, the dough…
Apple & Olive Oil Cake with Maple Icing
I thought I’d finish off the week with another apple recipe. This one is for a cake. I was intrigued by the title and the picture looked “interesting” (I’m using quotes not as sarcasm, but because I couldn’t think of a better word). I hope epicurious will forgive me because I had to post a…
Margarita Cake Doughnuts with Tequila Glaze
I’m not sure if I mentioned this before, but I’m a tequila girl, so whenever I see the word “margarita”, my eyes immediately light up. I actually tried making doughnuts (or donuts?) a few months ago, but I’m terrible with maintaining consistent oil temperatures in the pot, and I broke my candy thermometer (to lazy…
Banana Coffeecake with Chocolate Chip Streusel
I’ve been in the mood for banana bread ever since I made the banana cake with my own “quick ripe” bananas. You remember, the failed cake? This time I bought a couple of bananas and let them sit on my counter for about a week, so they would be nice and ripe. I couldn’t find…
Buttermilk Pancakes
I first made these pancakes a few years ago for my son’s birthday breakfast. The recipe was on the packaging for Star Wars pancake molds. I don’t usually try recipes found on product labels, but I made them and they were delicious. They are the perfect balance of hearty and light. I fry them in…
Bacon & Cheddar Waffle
During my last visit home, my son and I spent the night with one of my best girlfriend’s, so our kids could hang out and we could catch up and have a little girl talk. The next morning we were trying to decide what to make for the kids for breakfast. We thought of waffles,…
Grapefruit Cake
After make the Margarita Cake, I was still in the mood for something citrus-y and wanted to make another cake. I started hunting for blood oranges (because I thought it would be good and possibly add a bit of color), but I was unable to find any at the store, so I settled on ruby red grapefruit….
Vanilla Whoopie Pie
Lately, I’ve seen recipes using rhubarb. They all looked so pretty and springy, that I was getting the itch to bake with something colorful. I found an awesome recipe for a rhubarb-ginger crumble and was getting excited. I popped into the market to get the ingredients, but I couldn’t find the rhubarb. I asked an employee,…
Chocolate Chip Scones
Scones are the perfect breakfast item to bake in large batches and keep them individually wrapped in the freezer.
