Banana bake

I’ll post this now, because I promised I would, but I may edit and re-post it later if I can tweak it to make it even better. I’ve tried several versions, and they all work, but it’s just about getting it perfect at this point. Here it is fresh out of the oven, the night before… And then I warm it and nut butter it (new verb?) and dig in the next morning.  Preferably after they’ve eaten and I’ve cleaned the kitchen and I can sit in peace and tidiness. The inside is more cakey… Read more >

Granola-ish Bars [allergen free]

Does granola necessarily mean oats?  Or grains?   I read that buckwheat is a fruit the other day.  Hmmmm…I know it’s not related to wheat and I know it’s not a grass…eh, whatever [too lazy to google].   Ok so I made these bars and I’m not really sure if they count as granola or not, but if you feel like the ingredients list suits you, then go ahead and give them a shot.  And then send me a new recipe name suggestion.  🙂   The recipe is allergy friendly, and has no nuts, eggs,… Read more >

Lemon!

You have to say that like Jack Donaghy.  Oh 30 Rock, I miss you. I really don’t crave lemon too often.  Especially in winter.  Citrus seems summery to me, despite the fact that all the orange and lemon trees in our neighborhood are just now bursting with fruit.  Anyway, I picked a few lemons from our neighbor’s tree because I was in the mood for lemony things.  I swear my brain thinks up all the best recipe ideas in the late night hours as I lie in bed trying to fall asleep.  [Which is actually… Read more >

ABCD quick bread

Making quick breads is really as easy as it gets.  Kind like learning your A,B,C’s – once you figure out the basics, it’s a snap!    I promise I didn’t plan the name of this bread around that little theme, but it was too perfect to NOT call this ABCD bread. If you like dates, you will like this bread.  If you don’t (you’re crazy but oh well), you could sub in raisins. It doesn’t have much of a rise, which I may try to figure out in future versions.  Maybe extra baking powder or… Read more >
