Whole Wheat Pumpkin Cobbler

November 14, 2019 Amanda Plott

Are you getting tired of the same ol’ - same ol’ when it comes to the dessert options around the holidays? Shake things up this year and try out this delicious Whole Wheat Pumpkin Cobbler! If a pumpkin pie and a cobbler had a love child, this cobbler would be it!

This delicious wonder of a dessert makes it’s own gooey pumpkin caramel sauce while a spiced up cake forms on top to make one hell of a Fall inspired cobbler, if I do say so myself. Lightened up and made just a little better-for-you with just a few simple swaps…

Whole Wheat Vegan Biscuits

Baby it’s cold outside…

And I need some biscuits in my life! Now, I’ve made some simple biscuits in the past, like my 3 ingredient biscuits or even these low carb ones that I paired with gravy. Today though, I wanted to stay simple and have some biscuits on hand for breakfast sandwiches this week. I didn’t want just any old biscuit though, I wanted them to be whole wheat this time around!

I took some of the basics from my 3 ingredient biscuits and made the needed adjustments to turn them into whole wheat biscuits instead. Of course the thing that made the ‘ 3 ingredient’ version was the self-rising flour…

Broccoli & Cheese Tater Tot Breakfast Bake

November 4, 2019 Amanda Plott

As the Holidays draw ever closer, I’m always inclined to start thinking about casseroles. Especially when it comes to breakfast. I like to have something I can toss together quickly (or even the night before) so that I can serve up a group of people without breaking a sweat.

And trust me when I say that I’ve made my fair share of breakfast casseroles in the past.

This Broccoli & Cheese Tater Tot Breakfast Bake is based off of one that I made about a year ago. I’ve taken it a step further, lightening it even more, and using some veggie loaded tater tots instead of plain-jane traditional ones…

Skinny Baked 'Overnight' Vanilla Chai Oatmeal

October 28, 2019 Amanda Plott

This Skinny Baked 'Overnight' Vanilla Chai Oatmeal is based off of my Baked Amish Overnight Oatmeal, but made with plenty of added chai spice! The spice blend is homemade with spices that you likely already have on hand. It’s quick and easy to put together in the evening to have ready to go for baking up first thing in the morning.

Unlike a ‘bowl of oatmeal’ baked oatmeal is a bit more akin to cake. It’s fluffy and is generally cut or scooped to be served in a bowl where it’s topped with milk and any fresh fruits desired. Since this oatmeal likes to soak overnight, that makes this a great Sunday night breakfast to put together and have ready to go to toss in the oven on Monday for a weeks worth (plus) of breakfast!…

If you’re looking for a simple and easy to make breakfast that also happens to be guilt-free, look no further! This Protein Packed Cottage Cheese & Spinach Omelette is where it’s at. One pan and a handful of ingredients is all you need to achieve breakfast bliss.

This is pretty much the breakfast of champions. A perfectly lightened up omelette that’s loaded up with as much protein as one could manage to get in a meatless meal. There’s plenty of spinach in there too, giving a boost to the veggie intake!…

Overnight Pumpkin Spice Oatmeal

It’s almost the weekend and that means it’s time for some meal prepping! This Overnight Pumpkin Spice Oatmeal is a great way to get that pumpkin spice goodness of Fall in there for breakfast with minimal effort. And I do mean very minimal.

These oats are mixed together with pumpkin purée, spices, milk and some greek yogurt to create the perfect breakfast bite to grab-and-go out the door come the busy week ahead. It’ll fill you up and keep you going all the way through to lunch time!…
