Banana Nut Waffles

April 7, 2022 Amanda Plott

These Banana Nut Waffles are here to stay. It’s as if banana nut bread and waffles got together and made one ultimate breakfast or brunch bite of awesomeness. And they’re made from scratch (that’s right, no boxed batter here!) It’s good stuff too. That means you get to put what you want and like in there. For instance, I went with chopped pecans AND chopped walnuts.

I like to make a batch of these ahead of time and then keep them on hand through the week to be enjoyed as a quick heat and eat breakfast option. And yes, they do reheat really well via a toaster or toaster oven to get back some of that original crispness!…

Spinach & Feta Bundt

March 26, 2022 Amanda Plott

I love to play around and shake things up a bit. And more often than not, we all think of a bundt pan as being used for something sweet. This time around I decided to use it for something savory. This Spinach & Feta Bundt could honestly fit into any meal space; breakfast, brunch, lunch, or dinner. And let me just say that this thing is absolutely bursting with flavor. It’s honestly one of the most delicious things I’ve eaten in a good long while.

It’s light, but still filling and has a richness to it with the feta cheese but also the lemon in there to cut through it. It’s really good stuff and it’s absolutely perfect for these few months of Spring. There’s just so much going on here that the only thing you’d really want to serve it with would maybe be a simple soup such as tomato soup!…

Hash Brown Sheet Pan Breakfast

March 17, 2022 Amanda Plott

Breakfast is probably my favorite meal of the day, so I’m always looking for inspiration and trying new things. I saw this idea for a sheet pan breakfast and just knew I was going to have to healthify it and give it a try! Boy, am I glad that I did. This Hash Brown Sheet Pan Breakfast is a super easy and delicious way to start the day.

The hash browns crisp up perfectly with the addition of the cheese on top. And then the bacon. …Did I mention the eggs? I would have liked my own yolks to have come out just a little more runny, but all in all I was super happy with the end result of this sheet pan breakfast!…

Breakfast Biscuit Pie

March 2, 2022 Amanda Plott

Sometimes you just need something a little different to help shake things up a bit and keep life interesting. Especially during this part of the year when we’re all just trying to get through to summer break at this point. This Breakfast Biscuit Pie is made with a lot of the usual breakfast subjects, but in a new and fun way! I would say this Breakfast Biscuit Pie is basically a cross over of a quiche and a breakfast casserole.

The main difference here is that the eggs are pre-cooked BEFORE being baked, which means less time in the oven and you get to season the eggs to your liking before the final bake too. This is also made with just a few very basic ingredients, probably most of which you already have on hand…

Double Chocolate Banana Bread

February 24, 2022 Amanda Plott

Not all banana breads are created equal. Thinks Double Chocolate Banana Bread takes the cake. It’s a chocolate banana bread batter that’s been lightened up and LOADED with a heaping cup of chocolate chips so that you get an extra chocolatey bite each and every time. It’s a great way to use up old or frozen bananas in what might be a fun and more exciting way than your standard banana bread.

I like baking banana bread for breakfast for a few reasons, the first being that it gives me breakfast to have on hand for the entire week with little to do other than mix up the batter and bake! Banana bread reheats well too, meaning you can have a warm homemade breakfast that’s decadent and delicious!…

Skinny Instant Pot Breakfast Casserole

February 12, 2022 Amanda Plott

Breakfast is served! This Skinny Instant Pot Breakfast Casserole is quick and easy to make with no usual overnight sitting required. Plus, it’s low carb and keto friendly. Did I mention that it’s loaded with plenty of bacon and cheese too? Yep! This casserole is definitely a new breakfast favorite. From what I made this morning, I’ll have plenty leftover for a few more breakfast for myself this week!

I even managed to sneak in some veggies by way of peppers and onions. It’s good stuff I tell you. For this particular breakfast casserole, I went with a standard maple bacon, but really any bacon would work. I also went with a mix of low fat cheddar and a Carolina reaper cheddar to give some pep to this breakfast…
