Sweet Potato Biscuit with Pork tenderloin and apple chutney

Enjoy this delicious pork tenderloin with yummy homemade sweet potato biscuits and top it all with melt in your mouth apple chutney! Talk about a yummy comfort food meal. This will make you want to sit next to a warm fire and read a book after dinner.  I made this a few days ago and it was so simple and soooo delicious smelling. When the rosemary is cooking with the pork tenderloin it filled my house with such a delicious smell. It felt like fall had finally arrived. My house smelled even better when I made the apple chutney to top the pork tenderloin. I think adding a cinnamon stick to most things will only improve circumstances and thankfully the apple chutney recipe calls for one! This recipe does have three parts so you will want to plan ahead. Start with baking the sweet potato. Cover the sweet potato with olive oil, use a fork to put some holes in it and then wrap in foil and bake in the oven until squishy. Make sure you let the sweet potato cool before you mash or else you will get burned! You could bake the sweet potato a day or two ahead of time. I like to bake sweet potato like this often. I’ll bake several and then store them in the fridge and pull them out as needed. I typically like to just eat them as is, warmed up with a little bit of butter. They are packed with so many nutrients and fiber. You can’t go wrong! And what goes better with pork than sweet potato? And even...
Apple Crumb Coffee Cake Recipe

Apple Crumb Coffee Cake Recipe

Let’s get your mouth watering today!  How about a nice fluffy, crumbly, moistened, sweet, and enjoyable apple crumb coffee cake recipe.  Yes please! Whether you’re wanting a crumbly, sweet breakfast or fluffy, moist lighter dessert, an apple coffee cake is your solution.  I rarely bake with refined sugar and have instead learned to bake with honey, applesauce, bananas, and other naturally sweet ingredients like in my banana muffins.  However, for the crumbly topping on this apple coffee cake recipe, I added some brown sugar… coffee cake always needs a little sugar. I’m a HUGE fan of Bob’s Red Mill whole wheat pastry flour.  It’s the only flour I use.  It creates the most light and fluffy baked goods.  If you have not tried it, the time is now.  You won’t regret it!  I look forward to hearing your feedback on this apple crumble cake recipe.

Easy Best Cheddar Cheese Biscuits

Easy Best Cheddar Cheese Biscuits

These cheddar cheese biscuits are so easy to make and they taste soooo good! I made two batches of these and sent them as a treat with my husband, to his work. He informed me, when he got home, that everyone loved them! For something so simple it was wonderful to hear it was a hit! Now, when I say simple, I’m not kidding! These cheddar cheese biscuits come together so fast and bake quickly too! All you need to do is grab some bisquick, mix with the cheese, then add in the milk, sugar and garlic powder! DONE! Okay, well you still need to bake them, which only takes 8-10 minutes. Then you can brush with your butter mixture and eat to your hearts content. A warm cheddar biscuit straight from the oven- yes please! When I first made these I had no idea how big to form the batter on the baking sheet. So of course I went big and made six. Well, they were huge and very delicious. My second batch I separated into nine biscuits and they were the perfect size. But, I realized I could make them even smaller and they would still bake to a satisfying size, plus would feed more people.   Regardless, you can’t go wrong with this cheese biscuit recipe. I was thinking of even adding a few more spices next time. Maybe try some rosemary or chunks of fresh garlic, or trying different cheeses? YUM! The possibilities are endless! These are definitely my go to for biscuits. They are probably the best cheese biscuits I’ve had, or at least one...
Best Easy Dinner Roll Recipe

Best Easy Dinner Roll Recipe

These easy dinner rolls are amazingly delicious! Eat them fresh and warm from the oven or make them ahead for dinner and pull them out when needed! This is simply one of the best dinner roll recipes and it can be changed up so easily! You can add fresh herbs, like rosemary to give them even more flavor! So whether you are keeping them super simple with the hint of honey or making them into rosemary dinner rolls- you and your family won’t regret making these! Oh and did I mention they are super easy to make? Seriously, just get the yeast going, mix all the other ingredients. Combine yeast with the other ingredients, knead and the let rise twice! You can even make these into loafs or large bread bowls- just alter the shape and baking time a little and there you go! Filling this bread with a yummy stew like my green chile stew would be amazing! On the second rise, after shaping the rolls, make sure you let them rise close to each other. If they don’t rise to the point where they are touching after ~50 minutes, go ahead and gently push them together just so the edges lightly touch before popping them in the oven. This will allow them to grow and touch as they bake and then when you pull them out  of the oven you can pull them apart easily and expose their super soft sides. You can then brush the tops with a little melted butter, which will give them a beautiful shine and then you have amazingly delicious butter dinner...
Classic Bread Stuffing Recipe

Classic Bread Stuffing Recipe

This savory classic stuffing recipe will be the perfect compliment to your Thanksgiving Turkey.  The combination of just a few seasonings creates a flavorful, easy to prepare bread stuffing recipe. Full disclosure here:  I have not always been the biggest fan of stuffing at Thanksgiving.  It’s a staple though.  Stuffing must accompany turkey at Thanksgiving.  It’s a tradition! SO after several years of experimenting with stuffing, I discovered I like mine a little more crispy rather than moist and soft.  In order to create more of a crunchy texture, I bake my stuffing instead of stuffing the turkey with my bread stuffing.  Also, it’s pretty simple to adjust the texture of this recipe by adjusting how long you bake the stuffing uncovered.  For softer more moist stuffing, bake uncovered for a shorter amount of time.  For more crisp, crunchy stuffing, bake uncovered for a little longer time.  No worries… I provide exact times and instructions in the recipe. When I was hunting for fresh bread crumbs, I asked one of the bakery employees at my local grocery store for help with my search.  She was so kind to walk me directly over to the bakery and instruct the lady behind the counter to slice a fresh loaf of bread two ways!  I had my choice of whole wheat, white, sour dough, and asiago loaves.  The kind lady grabbed my whole wheat loaf, sliced that baby two ways, and made my fresh bread cubes!  I’m excited to try the sour dough and asiago bread next. Most traditional stuffing recipes instruct you to use stale bread or to dry or lightly...
Pumpkin Banana Muffins

Pumpkin Banana Muffins

These pumpkin banana muffins are light, fluffy, and perfect for the Fall.  They are meant for breakfast, but don’t be surprised if you’re tempted to eat them for every single meal throughout the day.  I made a batch this morning and my three year old wanted them for every meal AND snack!  He’s now in bed with a stomach full of these deliciously fulfilling healthy pumpkin banana muffins. This is my VERY most favorite time of the year.  It’s right before the holiday season kicks off with Halloween, the weather is starting to cool, leaves are changing, AND it’s prime time for comfort food.  I’m already a huge fan of quick breads and have a special weakness for banana pumpkin recipes.  I created these Chocolate Pumpkin Banana Muffins a couple years ago and have not looked back since.  If there’s a potential recipe where I can continue to combine banana and pumpkin, create I will. I know I repeat myself, however I love sneaking healthy ingredients in recipes without anyone knowing.  Fabulously healthy grains like chia seeds and flaxseed are easy to add into muffins such as these.  Also, I have tried several different whole wheat flours and now only use Bob’s Red Mill whole wheat pastry flour.  It keeps your baked good light, fluffy, and healthy.  Trust me.  It’s a must try.   SO if you’re wanting to keep this pumpkin banana muffin healthy, you can spread coconut oil instead of butter over fresh-out-of-the-oven muffins and drizzle pure honey on top.  You can thank me later.  Now hurry and go bake these addicting banana pumpkin muffins.
