Powdered Donut Holes

Powdered Donut Holes
After a particularly long day of meetings accompanied by stress, I had a lot I needed to do when I got home. But the only thing I wanted to do was make powdered donut holes, like the crazy processed ones I used to eat as a kid. Stress baking at its best. These donut holes are super fast and super easy when you just need some comfort after a bad...

Hatch Chile Pecan Pancakes

Hatch Chile Pecan Pancakes
It seems as though most of our recipes for Hatch chile week are just an update of other recipes we've made in the past, but that's ok, because the Hatch chiles definitely add their own unique flavors. Here's another Hatch-chile-for-breakfast recipe— Hatch chile pecan pancakes based off of these jalapeño pecan pancakes! Hatch chiles are the...

Blueberry Oatmeal Breakfast Cookies

Blueberry Oatmeal Breakfast Cookies
I was highly considering making some "traditional" dessert-like oatmeal cookies with blueberries and chocolate chips, but then decided to make them a little healthier so they could be deemed oatmeal breakfast cookies. With Dustin as my sous chef, late one night we whipped these up together in under half an hour just throwing ingredients...

Hot Cross Bun French Toast Casserole

Hot Cross Bun French Toast Casserole
Yesterday's batch of hot cross buns made way more than we needed to eat on Easter Sunday, so I turned some of the leftovers into a French toast casserole that we baked up this morning. Since today is our wedding anniversary, it was nice to have an easy, yet kind of fancy breakfast to wake up to. I haven't really had the time to make an elaborate...

Hot Cross Buns (with a hint of orange)

Hot Cross Buns (with a hint of orange)
Easter is significantly less fun when you have a major statistics test looming in the very near future, but we made the most of the morning with hot cross buns, Monte Cristo sandwiches, and rosé sangria. For now let's just focus on the hot cross buns. Apparently hot cross buns are super popular on Good Friday with all types of lore surrounding...

Top Pot Glazed Rings and Apple Fritters

Top Pot Glazed Rings and Apple Fritters
I'm not sure if it was because we were following a Top Pot recipe that we got to eat ridiculously fresh from the fryer, or simply the fact that we got to truly feel and taste the love that went into making these doughnuts, but these doughnuts were the best we've ever had. We got up at 7AM on Sunday to make these babies, but weren't eating our...

Soda Bread French Toast

Soda Bread French Toast
It may be too late... your soda bread from St. Patty's Day may already be gone, but if you happened to throw some in the fridge or freezer, you should make this French toast. I almost forgot that I planned on making it, but fortunately I managed to remember before the soda bread was too past its prime. The flavor is classic, but the soda...

Guinness + Bailey's Glazed Donut Holes

Guinness + Bailey's Glazed Donut Holes
I was all set to make Guinness donuts in my donut pan last weekend (to avoid studying for my final, which is finally over just in time for March Madness). Then I remembered seeing recipes for donut holes made in a mini muffin tin, which just seemed cuter to me. All you have to do is take any baked donut recipe, put them in a mini muffin pan...

Raspberry Waffles

Raspberry Waffles
Instead of using milk or buttermilk in waffles, I decided to puree some raspberries and use them as the main liquid ingredient. I really didn't expect to end up with thick, puffy waffles, but these were some of the thickest, puffiest ones I've made to date (we don't have a Belgian waffle maker, so our waffles tend to be relatively thin but...

Chocolate Mudslide Pancakes

Chocolate Mudslide Pancakes
I've never actually had a Mudslide to drink, but it sounds like something right up my alley— chocolate, Kahlua, and Bailey's Irish Cream. I bought a bottle of Bailey's awhile back with a strong desire to make a Bailey's syrup. Bailey's syrup on chocolate pancakes seemed like the perfect combination. We didn't have any Kahlua, so instead we added...
