Biscuits & Gravy Monkey Bread

December 7, 2020 Amanda Plott

This is monkey bread like no other. Unlike most monkey bread, this one is a savory option that combines the deliciousness of biscuits and gravy with the convenience of monkey bread! It takes no time at all to toss together, is super easy to make, and is great for feeding the family breakfast or brunch on the weekend.

Just as is traditional with monkey bread, this one starts out with biscuit dough, layers in cooked sausage and some shredded cheese, then more biscuit dough. It’s all topped off with a homemade easy to do sausage gravy; baking up to perfection in less than an hour!…

Cranberry-Orange Muffins

Just in time for the holidays! These Cranberry-Orange Muffins are a delicious way to start off any morning with a bright and colorful Holiday inspired breakfast bite. Cranberry and orange are one of my all time favorite flavor combinations. The tartness and sweet playing off one another is always tasty. I’ve used the dynamic duo in bread, cookies, and now muffins!

If the Holidays could baked and served for breakfast, I’m pretty confident that they would taste just like these muffins right here. A little sweet. A little tart. And a whole lot of yum. Plus, this is about as simple as you can get with a muffin recipe…

Skinny Peanut Butter Bread

Baking is the name of the game right now. It never fails, every year in the midst of Fall and Winter months I attempt to get as much use out of my oven as possible since it becomes too hot to do so through the most of the Spring and Summer months. I’ve made a lot of breads lately and I’ve got to say that this Skinny Peanut Butter Bread is one of my favorites.

This bread is perfectly sweet and full of peanut butter flavor. I found it to be a great breakfast bread, but I’m wondering too if there could be other uses by way of a PB&J sandwich…

Apple Pie Monkey Bread

Ever use want a piece of pie for breakfast? Now you can have it! This Apple Pie Monkey Bread is a winning combination of the flavors of apple pie and the ease of monkey bread. If you haven’t had monkey bread before, it’s basically a fun way to have a pull-apart breakfast, brunch, or dessert.

You can make it all sorts of fun ways. I’ve made everything from Pumpkin Spice to a savory Bacon, Egg & Cheese version! I decided to go with an apple pie theme this time since apple pie can be a Fall favorite, or even a year round treat. I mean, do you really need an excuse to have apple pie?…

Pumpkin Oat Muffins

These Pumpkin Oat Muffins will blow your mind! there’s no flour used in these muffins. Meaning if you buy gluten-free oats, that makes these muffins gluten-free on top of already being vegetarian and dairy-free! One of the best parts is that these muffins are so easy to make.

A quick whir around a blender with the oats and a mix with wet ingredients and you’ve got yourself an easy peasy muffin batter! I topped these off with a touch of raw sugar to give a little added sweetness, but honestly these muffins are pretty stand alone…

Pecan Pie Baked Oatmeal

September 29, 2020 Amanda Plott

If you’re a fan of pecan pie and you’re a fan of oatmeal, you’re going to love this Pecan Pie Baked Oatmeal! It’s basically my Baked Amish Overnight Oatmeal with a candied pecan pie style topping. It’s perfect for chilly Fall mornings as we get closer to Halloween AND Thanksgiving. This Pecan Pie Baked Oatmeal would actually make a really great breakfast for the morning of Thanksgiving because you can make it ahead of time and bake it in the morning. No fuss. no muss.

Of course, one of my favorite things about this oatmeal, is for sure the topping, but the ease of making it and having it on hand and ready to go for breakfast is pretty nice too….
