Peach Bundt Cake

July 24, 2020 Amanda Plott

One of my favorite things about summer is peaches. I don’t know about anywhere else, but here in Texas locals come out in droves selling them at the side of the road. This year, I haven’t gone anywhere to see any. But, my local grocery store thankfully has ‘Texas Peaches’ on hand from local vendors so that I was more easily and safely able to get my peach fix this year.

This cake is truly one of the most moist and deliciously each cakes out there. The peach juices and fresh peach really take this simple and easy to make cake to the next level. It would be just as good as part of a breakfast or brunch, as it would be for dessert!…

Cinnamon Sugar Donut Twists (Air-Fryer)

July 21, 2020 Amanda Plott

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again. Donuts are a weekly staple in my house. And sometimes, especially these days, I’d much rather make them myself than go out and get them from somewhere. Baked donuts have their place in this world, but being as I’ve fallen in love with my air fryer, I thought I would give donuts a try in it!

These Cinnamon Sugar Donut Twists are every bit as good as ones you’ll get from any local donut place. But, they’re a lot better-for-you being made with far less sugar and oil. They’re sort of a cross between baked donuts and fried donuts. A perfect mix of the two…

Skinny Peaches & Cream Baked Oatmeal

July 13, 2020 Amanda Plott

Peaches are a big thing around here during the summer. Even though this summer is a little different, there’s still plenty of peaches to go around. So when I got my hands on some fresh local peaches, I wanted to be sure to do something worthy with them. That’s where this Skinny Peaches & Cream Baked Oatmeal comes in.

I used the base for my Baked Amish Overnight Oatmeal for this one. It’s a tried and true recipe that is easy to make, and perfect to have ready to go in the busy mornings. Instead of leaving it ‘as is’, I loaded the oats with pieces of diced fresh peach…

Toaster Strudel

July 7, 2020 Amanda Plott

One of my favorite breakfast bites growing up had to have been a toaster strudel. I guess there was just something about the flaky crust and the jam filling that would never get all the way hot in the very center. Being as I happened to have both some leftover jam and some puff pastry on hand, I thought I’d try making some homemade toaster strudels (and maybe even get the middle warm!)

These homemade Toaster Strudels are SUPER easy to make and are WAY more impressive than the delicious kid-friendly crap in a box. They are thick, fluffy, and full of whatever jam happens to be your favorite. Plus, they truly only take 30 minutes from start to finish. Well worth the time!…

Skinny Baked Funfetti 'Cake Batter' Oatmeal

May 24, 2020 Amanda Plott

Back when I originally made this, my amazing little girl wass turning 4 years old the very next day and I could hardly believe how fast time was flying! Today, she’s a month into 10! One of her most favorite things in the world when she was little (and still is today) are sprinkles. Every year for her birthday I always try to come up with a 'sprinkle' heavy (funfetti) dish in her honor.

Well, alright... so funfetti and sprinkles are a few of my most favorite things in the world as well. I mean... what's better than eating a rainbow? I like to imagine that it appeases my inner child for a while…

Peanut Butter Cup Banana Bread

May 6, 2020 Amanda Plott

Everyone is all into banana bread right now. And I’m over here like… normal banana bread can be boring. Let’s jazz it up a bit with something extra special. Peanut butter and chocolate. Hell. Yes. This Peanut Butter Cup Banana Bread is about ad decadent seeming as banana bread can come. The batter is made with a touch of peanut butter and then mini peanut butter cups are mixed in for added amazingness.

The batter itself is lightened up by way of plenty of mashed banana and some greek yogurt too. There’s also no actual sugar used in this bread. It’s made with natural sweeteners and blends. The end result is a light, fluffy, rich and delicious breakfast bite that is sure to impress…
