Bread Machine Banana Bread

August 17, 2022 Amanda Plott

I love banana bread, but I don’t like fussing around with it. And I really still don’t want to heat my kitchen up more than I have to with it being on the edges of triple digits here still. So! That’s why I decided to finally try out the ‘quick bread’ feature on my bread machine and I made some banana bread in it instead of the oven. What was the end result? Well, you tell me!

This Bread Machine Banana Bread is as easy as can be. Just dump all the ingredients in - no yeast required - and go! The bread machine does all the hard work for you, all the way from mixing to baking. And at the end of it all you have a nice loaf of fresh banana bread that you barely had to do anything for…

Blooming Breakfast Quesadilla Ring

Oh man, it’s been a whirlwind of a few days. That’s always how the end of Summer is when we start to get into back-to-school though. And this year is no different. Especially because my kiddo is going to a new school this year on their own choosing to do so. So after the chaos of the last few days, it was nice to get to have some time this morning to make some breakfast.

After making my Blooming Buffalo Chicken Quesadillas, I decided that I should try the same idea with breakfast instead. So here you have this Blooming Breakfast Quesadilla Ring! It’s a fun and easy way to make breakfast quesadillas for the whole family!…

Air Fryer French Toast

Did you know that you can make french toast in the air fryer? Well, as it turns out, you totally can and it’s super simple and easy to do! And you know what’s better? It only takes is six ingredients and just a few minutes of hands on time! I started this Air Fryer French Toast with some of my favorite whole wheat and multi-grain bread.

French toast is pretty standard across the board, but I did lighten the egg mixture up just a bit by using an unsweetened almond milk instead of cream. Trust me when I say, you won’t notice the simple swap. Other than that, the egg mixture is loaded up with plenty of cinnamon goodness…

Vegetarian Breakfast Enchiladas

I was thinking the other day about enchiladas and I started to wonder… why are they always for lunch or dinner? Isn’t there a way to have them for breakfast? Enchiladas for breakfast? You bet! These Vegetarian Breakfast Enchiladas are made by rolling up vegetarian sausage, eggs, and cheese up in a tortilla and then baking them in a homemade gravy.

They’re absolutely delicious and perfect for making as a weekend breakfast or brunch. Plus, you can always make them ahead of time and then heat them for the final bake when you’re ready to enjoy. They reheat well too if you make a batch and have leftovers, you can always enjoy them through the week for a quick breakfast bite…

All the breakfast favorites, tucked away inside a pillow pocket of dough. We’re talking bacon, egg, and cheese! These Bacon, Egg & Cheese Breakfast Pockets are surprisingly easy to make, and delicious too. Plus, they’re great to have on hand as a grab-and-go option during the week. You know what that means, they reheat really well with a quick pop into the microwave or toaster oven.

You can feel free to make these your own too. Spice them up with some jalapeño. Swap the bacon for breakfast sausage. Or even change up the cheese used for a favorite or just something you have on hand. No matter which way you go, these things are delish!…

Blueberry Waffles

I have pretty much been in love with my waffle maker ever since I got it, if you couldn’t tell. I’ve been making all sorts of waffles. Sweet ones, savory ones, some with mixes, others from scratch. I’ve got to say though that these Blueberry Waffles take the cake. They’re made all in one bowl with very real and very simple ingredients that you probably already have on hand.

As I’ve been going through these different kinds of waffles, I’ve been playing around with different amounts and ingredients. These Blueberry Waffles end up being a bit lighter in both color and texture. And the blueberries in there add some texture and just a bit of chew…
