Air Fryer Breakfast Taquito

January 8, 2020 Amanda Plott

Sometimes you just need a nice warm breakfast to get you going in the morning, and recently since I’ve fallen in love with lavash bread, I decided to try my hand at using the lavash to make a breakfast taquito! Being as I tend to be a lot more of a savory breakfast person, rather than a sweet breakfast person, breakfast taquitos are pretty much my jam.

Normally breakfast taquitos are made with flour tortillas, but the lavash bread gives me a lot more bang for my buck, if you know what I mean. (It’s fewer calories and whole wheat!) Even though it’s still pretty chilly outside in the mornings, I figured the air fryer would be a quicker and easier way to get my breakfast taquito hot all the way through…

Unicorn Banana Bread

Usually, banana bread is banana bread is banana bread. But, being as I intend to make food a whole hell of a lot more fun and exciting this year, I decided to do what any mother does best. Add rainbows to the mix! This colorful twist on banana bread has lovingly been dubbed as Unicorn Banana Bread and it’s pretty easy to see why.

If you love banana bread, you’ll also love this Unicorn Banana Bread. Other than a few healthy swaps and the sprinkles added into the mix, this is a pretty standard banana bread. Lots of bananas, lots of whole wheat, and lots of color…

Cranberry Orange Bread

While it’s cold enough outside for a few more months, I’m planning on doing a lot more baking and using up precious oven time while I can. The heat of the summer (and sometimes spring) often keeps from being able to comfortably bake anything. At all. Ever. To keep on theme with the Holidays, I thought I would whip up a festive bread for breakfast this morning.

This Cranberry Orange Bread is loaded with flavor, the freshness of the orange and the tartness of the cranberry pair well with the sweetness of the bread. Plus, it’s pretty easy to toss together in the morning and bakes for a good amount of hands off time…

Giant Donut Cake

My daughter is pretty much obsessed with donuts. Seriously, once a week she gets to have donuts for breakfast. Usually it’s from a local donut place, but this morning I decided to take it up a notch. I’ve been working on the notion of a giant donut cake for a while. And if you follow me over on Facebook or Instagram you may have seen my most recent attempt.

I was sooo close, but it still wasn’t perfect. And I never want to share a recipe that I’m not completely in love with. Whether it has to do with the recipe itself or with the aesthetics of it all. This last time was a painful lesson with sprinkles and frosting. Today though? I got it all right!…

Skinny Overnight Eggs Benedict Casserole (With Blender Hollandaise)

December 12, 2019 Amanda Plott

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, they say. And I tend to agree. If you start your day off right with a nice breakfast, the rest of the day tends to follow suit. One of my all time favorite breakfast (or brunch) items is eggs benedict. A simple breakfast bite with english muffins, eggs, and hollandaise sauce. However, with the holidays coming up, I tend to gravitate towards casseroles.

So, why not turn a classic breakfast dish into a casserole? This Skinny Overnight Eggs Benedict Casserole is really simple to make and is pretty similar to a strata or a quiche. The only difference really is the use of english muffins and the added hollandaise sauce…

Baked Gingerbread Oatmeal

December 7, 2019 Amanda Plott

Holiday morning breakfasts are always something that I like to plan and make ahead. With the Holidays themselves being stressful enough as it is, I like to be sure that when it comes to breakfast, I’m have little to nothing to worry about. Amish style baked oatmeal has always, and will always, be my go-to staple crowd pleasing made ahead breakfasts.

I took my standard Baked Amish Overnight Oatmeal and turned it into a festive Holiday breakfast that’s full of gingerbread spice and everything nice! This overnight oatmeal has all the warm gingerbread flavors and just a touch of sweetness...
