No More Chocolate - Apple Brownies

They say (whoever “They” are) that a picture is worth a thousand words. And I’m sure it’s true. That being said, of course, it would be tremendously helpful if I actually remembered to take one. 

As it is. I didn’t.

Always on the Move - Homemade Granola Squares

You know what sucks? Not going to Costco. I mean - where else are you supposed to get granola bars (and don't you dare say Safeway!)? Well, I'm so glad you asked! 
I stumbled across this healthy alternative a few days ago, and YUM!
Careful though, they are addictive... Srsly - I had to go to for a run to get away from them. A very long run.

Chocolate Utopia (AKA) - Flourless Chocolate Pecan Cookies

Celiac's and choco-holic's rejoice! They are amazing. No really, they are. Now, these absolutely not help in getting you ready for bikini season, but hell, they taste good and I personally think they might just be totally worth it. These are worlds easier (although, no less awesome) to make then the Flourless Ancho Chili Chocolate Cake I posted on here last year.

So this is supposed to make about 20 or so cookies, but (as per usual) I made my cookies too big, so I only got 16. But this doesn't effect cooking time at all, you can add another minute if you like, but they are supposed to have chewy centres, so again, it doesn't really matter. Just don't forget to take them out of the oven when the timer goes and you turn off the oven, don't forget a leave them in for say... another 10 minutes... not that I've done that...

Homemade Heaven - Buttermilk Biscuits

Christmas break was a starchy time at our house. I was working off of the 'practice makes perfect' philosophy, but, let's be honest, they taste good and I was marginally addicted to them. So, being that I have sworn them off until at least May or June, I'll post them on here, that way everyone else can enjoy them. These are awesome little biscuits, they're awesome fresh out of the oven (careful, you can eat a lot this way) with a bit of butter, they go great with any kind of dinner (plus, they are WAY more impressive then bought buns) or, my personal favourite, warm, as dessert, with butter and maple syrup. So good! Anyway, give these a try, you'll love them. 

Beg. Borrow. Steal - Becky's Best Ever Bran Muffins

My boyfriend's mom makes the best bran muffins. I'm so addicted to them. I used to be all about the blueberry or chocolate chip variety, but not since I tasted these fabulous delights over 7 years ago. My favourite way to enjoy them is warm, fresh from the oven with melty peanut butter. They also freeze well, I find they should be kept in the fridge after a few days, the blueberries make it a little too moist to keep out on the counter - not that they ever last that long...

Hello, Sunshine - Summer Morning Popovers

 Everything goes with bacon. Have you ever noticed that? It's never really that difficult to put a fabulous breakfast together when you have bacon. It pretty much makes itself.

Oh, this wasn't supposed to be about that at all... I've gotten a little off track.

I was wanting to talk about popovers, but someone mentioned bacon, and that's the direction my brain went.

Sorry.

These are wonderful, easy and great for breakfast (if you're English, or just a fan of afternoon noms, these are great with tea.) although I have yet to have them with anything but butter and maple syrup, I'm told by the rest of my little family that they are amazing with honey and jam. Personally, I can't get over the syrup, so I'll have to take that at face value. 

Now, by all means, go out and buy a popover pan, they are just like muffins tins, only a little deeper. but why would you when you can use a muffin tin? They wont rise as much as they would in a popover pan, but really, you're only going to smother them with butter and jam (SYRUP!) so I have decided that it doesn't really make much of a difference.

Midnight Cravings - Easy Banana Bread

I'm weird with bananas. I always buy them, forget to eat them, then dump them in the freezer when they get brown. Srsly. I have a freezer full of brown, rock hard bananas. Which, I suppose is a good thing when I start having mad cravings for banana bread! 

Va-Va-Voom - Vanilla Cupcakes

Vanilla or chocolate? It's a question that usually doesn't really need more than an instant to consider. Chocolate all the way! Until, of course, I found these...
