Mini donuts filled with key lime flavor This past Sunday, 5/11, was my best friend, Winston's, ninth birthday. Winston is my golden retriever. If you follow me on Instagram, you'll see him in his supervisory role as part-time baker/ clean up crew team member. This post is dedicated to him. Although he didn't snack on this batch of Baked Key Lime Donuts, I'm sure he'd love them (he loves to taste test - i.e. steal from the counter.) Below I'm sharing nine awesome facts about my main ...
Breakfast
Strawberry Banana Bread
Banana bread all jazzed up for spring What's a more classic school time lunch than a peanut butter sandwich? Growing up it was my go to lunch. The side however might be a little more surprising. My dad was in charge of most school lunches and somehow he always had an overripe banana hanging around.

Carrot Cake Granola
A yummy twist on my favorite granola and cake I love making granola. I make a batch at least once a week. I used to like making different recipes, but usually ended up being disappointed.

I've tried many, but none compare to the one I've created based off a bag of coconut. Since last fall, I've been ...
Easy Cinnamon Rolls with Sprinkles
A cinnamon roll that can be eaten 30 minutes after waking up I've been on the search for a cinnamon roll that I could make at night and enjoy in the morning, but hadn't been able to find one. All the recipes involved at least an hour's wait time before baking. For my mom's birthday, I wanted to create a special breakfast, so I crafted these cinnamon rolls. I used a variation on one of my favorite bread doughs and kneaded in sprinkles! Can you believe I've never baked with sprinkles ...
Banana Pomegranate Muffins
A sweet muffin filled with pomegranate seeds I guess I missed the memo or something, but I never realized you could eat the entire pomegranate seed. I always just ate the juicy part and then spit out the remaining seed. Then I saw the whole world of recipes using the entire seed. I was a little skeptical at first, and thought my test tasters wouldn't like the chewiness, but I gave them a try in my go-to banana muffin recipe. I baked these in jumbo muffin tins, but you could use a standard ...
