Tender apple cinnamon scones, filled with crisp apple chunks and baked to golden brown perfection. As much as I love myself a good pumpkin baking season, I do also love when fall comes around to offset all the pumpkin-ing with APPLES. Apple baking season is probably tied for me with pumpkin baking season, so I…

Apple Cinnamon Oat Streusel Muffins
Moist and tender muffins full of tart, chunky apples and topped with a melt-in-your-mouth cinnamon and oat streusel. A great staple muffin recipe for fall! Move over, pumpkin! There’s a new sheriff in town, and it’s come bearing cinnamon and nutmeg and cloves and all the best spices fall has to offer. I love you,…
Morning Glory Muffins
Hearty whole wheat muffins packed with fruits, vegetables, nuts, and flaxseed to fill you up at breakfast time. What do you immediately think of when I say “healthier muffin?” Is it something like a bran/fiber muffin, tasting much like cardboard, with a dense and dry texture? Yeah. Me too. So I’m here today to scratch…
Instant Pot Applesauce
All-natural, no sugar added, homemade applesauce, ready in 4 minutes! I have a big huge complaint to file with the applesauce makers of the world. “No sugar added” applesauce that is CHUNKY is seriously hard to find, and it really shouldn’t be! There are plenty of options for smooth applesauce with JUST apples and some…

Apple, Quinoa, and Almond Kale Salad
An easy, no bake side dish packed with flavor, fiber, and protein. Although this space is absolutely not a space to discuss politics, I just want to stop for a second and talk about kindness before I talk about this gorgeous salad. And yes, the two are actually related. The kindness and the salad. Not…
Healthy Apple Pie Smoothie
Made with good-for-you ingredients but tastes just like apple pie. Naturally sweetened and gluten free! HOLY. SNOW. We got absolutely slammed this weekend with almost 3 feet of snow. All at once. And it was a nightmare to move it. To be completely honest, I didn’t do much shoveling, thanks to the little guy growing…
Apple Cinnamon Baked Oatmeal
Easy, customizable, crowd-pleasing baked oatmeal spiced with cinnamon, loaded with chunks of apples, and studded with plump raisins. It’s that time of year that I start wanting warm, cinnamon-y breakfast. Maybe it’s because the weather is chilly and cozy, but it probably has a lot to do with the fact that I am a vacation hoarder…
