Food, Wine, Family. Fun!
I'm on the hunt for a delicious recipe for breakfast morning on Christmas and decided to do some testing. This is the first recipe I'd tried and it was really good. Everyone loved the cinnamon rolls and the banana made them different and unique....plus I'm always looking for a way to use up over-ripe bananas.… Continue reading Banana Bread Maple Cinnamon Rolls
As usual, I had a couple of over-ripe bananas and needed to find something to make to use them up. I don't know why we always end up with 2 or 3 bananas that never get eaten?!? I was thinking about making one of my muffin recipes, but then decided on this recipe for a… Continue reading Double Chocolate Banana Cake
My kids are growing like weeds! I've been noticing their pants are getting shorter and they've been complaining their shoes are too small. It might explain all the snacking they've been doing! I wanted to make something that would be packed with protein, but still have a little bit of sweetness and found this delicious… Continue reading Chunky Monkey Trail Mix
Once again, I found myself with almost a full bunch of bananas that were on their way to being overripe. I should learn that when my kids ask for bananas, they only want 1 or 2 and not to buy a bunch, since they never eat them all. I decided to wipe up a loaf… Continue reading Ricotta Banana Bread
Today comes with great sadness...it's my last post for The Secret Recipe Club. I have been with the group since almost the beginning, I think I may have missed for the first or second months, but it's been 5 years worth of fun, meeting new friends and making so many amazing recipes! I went back… Continue reading Banana Coconut Bread – The Secret Recipe Club
It's time for September's #FilltheCookieJar group and I'm filling the jar with these delicious peanut butter banana bars. The theme for this month was fall, and while these bars aren't exactly fall themed, they are still delicious and you can't go wrong with the combination of peanut butter and banana. These bars are easy to… Continue reading Peanut Butter Banana Bars – #FilltheCookieJar
As usual I had some over-ripe bananas on my counter waiting to be used and decided I would make some snack bars for the kids. They've been eating like crazy lately, not sure if they're getting ready to hibernate for the winter or what is going on! It was also the perfect time to get… Continue reading Banana Chocolate Chip Snack Bars – #FilltheCookieJar
Once again I found myself with a bunch of overripe bananas and need to use them up. My kids go in spurts with eating bananas and this past week wasn't one of them. I found this great recipe for breakfast cake that I was able to use up most of the bananas and had a… Continue reading Banana & Oat Breakfast Cake
Yes, once again I found myself with over-ripe bananas that I needed to use. I think it happens at least one a month, but no one was complaining this month after I made this cake! It was soooo good. The cake is moist and light, and then the caramelized bananas with the melted butter and… Continue reading Caramelized Banana Upside Down Cake
I hope everyone had a great holiday weekend! We have a busy weekend and hosted a family party on July 4th. It was small but it was fun to get together with our family and enjoy the weather. I was worried the weather wasn't going to be great, but by noon, the weather changed and… Continue reading Skinny Peanut Butter Banana Muffins
