Freezer Full of Bananas? Make These Banana Oatmeal Walnut Muffins
I wasn’t sure if it was just me, but I found that the bananas I was buying were ripening really fast. They would go from the green one day to brown the next. There are only so many bananas that you can eat. I also find this is the same with avocados, where they are rock hard and then you have 15 minutes to eat them before they are rotten. Needless to say, I had a freezer full of ripe bananas that I need to find something to make or I would just have to toss them out. I used walnuts in these muffins but you can swap those out…

The Blueberry Muffin That Will Become Your Go-To
I have been trying to take it a little easy on the baking right now. I still feel like I ate like a savage over the holidays and I should be cutting back a bit still. Enter my favourite blueberry muffin recipe. This is my go-to muffin recipe when I just need to have a snack around that is not loaded with chocolate. You can substitute any berry with this recipe. I have made this with blackberries, and raspberries, and I have even used peaches with it as well. I use the exact same amount as I did for the blueberries and they have always turned out. If I don’t…

Rhubard Muffins Topped With Streusel
What a difference a week makes! It went from hot sunny weather here to cold and cloudy in just a couple of days. It really feels like Summer is gone and Autumn is here, which I’m alright with I enjoy wearing sweaters! I am going to try not to bombard you all with too many rhubarb recipes but it is one of my favourite Fall ingredients. I promise I will try to space them out as best I can. This recipe came from Noshing With Nolands. I did make a slight edit, I used less rhubarb in the compost and I substituted the sour cream with Greek yogurt. Otherwise, I…

Cranberry Almond Muffins
This week it seemed everything I was trying didn’t turn out for one reason or another. I tried making a cake but I forgot to add the baking powder so it didn’t rise. Then I tried making cookies but forgot when I put them in the oven and wasn’t watching close enough and they burnt so they had to be tossed. I decided that I would try to make muffins but would actually pay attention to what I was doing. It’s funny that when you pay attention to how things seem to work. This muffin I usually use blueberries with but I didn’t have any so I thought I would…

Morning Glory Muffins
This week seemed to be a struggle for me. I felt like I was always running late, even though I wasn’t, and I was having terrible sleep. Kiki seemed to need to go outside every 2 hours, which was awesome. Needless to say, I was not eating breakfast due to the fact that I felt like I was always running behind. I decided on Wednesday that I needed to make something that I could eat in the car on the drive to work. I made these Morning Glory Muffins and they were way better than I thought they would be! I normally don’t like a lot of things in my…
