Blueberry Oat Bars

I love just about every blueberry recipe that I’ve ever come across.  What I love about this recipe in particular is that these squares are mostly healthy, and aren’t super sweet.  In fact, I think they are great way to start your day for breakfast!  You could even serve these warm with a…

Peanut Butter & Chocolate Chip Muffins

Here’s another muffin recipe I think you’ll love…  Peanut Butter & Chocolate Chip Muffins.  The muffins themselves are slightly sweet & mildly peanut buttery, but the addition of chocolate & peanut butter chips take them over the top!  They might not be the healthiest muffins you’ll find, but they are definitely among the…

Banana Oat Bread

It never fails… No matter how much I try to carefully count out the number of bananas I think our family will consume before they turn super-ripe, I often end up with a few extra that ripen beyond what we like to eat.  I have two other banana recipes (another bread, and some…

Healthy Morning Muffins

I love sharing baked goods with my family.  My kids gobble up muffins just about as fast as they come out of the oven (after cooling, of course!).  Since they eat muffins so well, I try to make them as healthy as I can.  This Healthy Morning Muffin recipe contains both fruit (bananas…

Iced Coffee Concentrate

During the winter time, I love waking up with a hot cup of coffee.  However, during the warm summer months, I like to stay as cool as possible and a hot coffee just doesn’t sound that appealing.  But iced coffee… now you’re talking!
