Homemade spiced granola gets a pumpkin flair thanks to real pumpkin, and sweetened with brown sugar and maple syrup. Not your ordinary crunchy granola– this stuff is soft like pie! I’m a firm believer in PUMPKIN ALL THE TIME, but even more so a believer in pumpkin flavored things all of September, October, and November….

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…
How To Make Homemade Magic Shell
An easy, 3-ingredient recipe for magic shell you can make at home. Bring on the sundaes! Sorry, east coasters (and anyone else experiencing winter’s essential return). I brought the cold spring weather by planning this recipe weeks in advance thinking that the first week of May would be warm and sunny and we’d be licking…

Apple Quinoa Granola
Easy granola spiced with cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves and bursting with apple flavor. A must-have fall treat! I have fallen head-over-heels in love with homemade granola.

Toasted Coconut Curry Peanuts
A sweet heat snack that will have you reaching for more. Do you ever make a snack or a treat that you find yourself taste testing until it’s gone? I’m not talking taking some and walking away with it or putting it in a bowl and sitting down to eat it… I’m talking standing over…
Almond Joy Granola
Crunchy and wholesome homemade granola full of almonds, coconut, and chocolate. Sometimes you feel like a nut; sometimes you don’t. Is that still the tag line for Almond Joy? I sure hope so, because the jingle (hello, 1990!) has been stuck in my head for daysssss, and it brings back lots of childhood memories. I’ve always…
