Want to make your family happy? Easy, put those ripe bananas to good use. They'll thank you and I guarantee, they'll ask for it over and over again. This is one of the best chocolate banana bread recipes I've ever tried. There's always a secret ingredient when you find a real winner, but we'll get to that.
Super easy to mix this batter up, no need for an electric mixer or Kitchen Aid. You can do this one by hand. Great recipe to make if you have some little helpers around. They can sneak a chocolate chip along the way and can help you with the mixing.

You can still buy fresh raspberries by mid-August, but you can't usually pick your own. So when we happened "accidentally" upon a farm that was advertising pick your own, we jumped at the opportunity. This farm offered both raspberry and blueberry picking.
We arrived at the pick your own section of the raspberries to find little left. But sometimes little can be more than enough. They were small, but boy were they good.
With our big Christmas meal planned for boxing day this year, it meant I could do a little something extra special for Christmas morning breakfast.
Is there anything better than warm and gooey cinnamon buns? Following an amazing egg and ham casserole, I pulled the cinnamon buns out of the oven for all to indulge. Yes they take a bit of time to pull off, mainly for the dough to rise, but they are so worth it. I was able to prepare them a day ahead and just pop them into the oven, lightly covered with tinfoil on low (325 degrees) for about 30 minutes.
Want to sell your house? Have these baking during your open house and it's a slam dunk! The smell that was flooding the kitchen was heavenly. The end product lived up to expectations! These delicious and pretty breakfast treats are worth every bit of "little" effort you'll put into them. Super easy to whip up.
Weekends in our house means pancakes and bacon are usually on the menu. Ever since we discovered the difference a little sour cream makes, pancakes have become our weekend favourite breakfast/brunch food of choice.
We have a variety of preferences from raspberry, to chocolate chip, to blueberry, banana or a mixture of raspberry and chocolate chip, the one thing that never changes is the syrup. Pure Maple Syrup is a must!
I think it was my daughter, Samara who happened to mention "cinnamon buns". We didn't often eat cinnamon buns in Canada, but when we did, it was a real treat. The best cinnamon buns I've ever had can't be bought at a store, they were made with love in Stella Rouble's kitchen. We affectionately called them "Stella Buns"! I got to thinking about her amazing buns and couldn't get them out of my head. There is something incredibly comforting about the gooey goodness and heavenly aroma of a cinnamon bun. My next stop was Pinterest of course. I decided on a recipe that incorporated a little more than cinnamon and settled on Apple Pie Cinnamon Rolls.
If I were to pick my all time favourite go to comfort food it would be Apple Pie, so I thought the combination of cinnamon buns and apples was worth a try! We love poached eggs and everyone knows they go hand-in-hand with asparagus which is especially delicious at this time of the year (Spring). I had left over lemon-butter sauce which inspired me to poach the eggs and steam the asparagus. Original recipe: lemon-butter sauce. |
Terri MazikAll things cooking, from simple and clean to gourmet and exotic (and everything in between) have been my passion for over 30 years. Since discovering Pinterest, I pretty much exclusively cook from the recipes I PIN. My saying is, "if you can PIN it, you can cook it". I love to PIN recipes and I love to cook. I thought, why not blog the recipes I make from my Pinterest food boards. I'm the self-declared, Pincook. Categories
