Everyone in my family loves french toast, and what better way to start off Valentine’s Day than with in some chocolate…in the form of Nutella French Toast. A friend at the University of Pennsylvania had suggested this to me – make a nutella-challah sandwich and turn it into french toast…I could not resist! Yes, it…

Honey-Lemon Scones
Honey and lemon – a nice, subtle combination, very tempting for scones. I tried a new scone-cooking technique…cooking them in a cast iron skillet. It saved a little effort by not having to roll the dough, but other than that, I think the two approaches (baking sheet and skillet) are about the same. We topped these…
Raisin-Peanut-Dark Chocolate Granola and Cranberry-Macadamia Nut-White Chocolate Granola
These sound decadent, and they are, but they are also healthy, with lots of fiber, vitamins and minerals in them. I couldn’t decide what granola to make, so I raided the pantry and came up with these combos. What goes better with macadamia nuts than white chocolate? And dried cranberries and white chocolate are another…
Cranberry White Chocolate Agave Scones
Scones for breakfast is probably one of my favorite things (food-wise). One of the problems I usually find with baking in the morning is that I wake up really hungry and the time it usually takes to prepare and bake is a real turn off for me. The beauty of these scones was that it…
Skyline Apple Muffins
With the family home for Thanksgiving break, it was time to make some treats to have for other meals. The first were apple muffins to start off Thanksgiving Day. These muffins come from a recipe I got from a bed and breakfast in Edenton, NC more years ago than I like to remember. The B…
Breakfast for Dinner – Brussels Sprout Hash
I was trying to figure out what I wanted to do with the brussels sprouts in my fridge when I came across a posting on How Sweet It Is for Brussels Sprouts Breakfast Hash. Perfect – breakfast for dinner, one of my favorites! Plus, it calls for a sweet potato, so it would also be…
Caramel Apple Scones
What do we all need after Halloween and before Thanksgiving? Caramel apple scone! A sweet treat for breakfast, yes, we do need this. Why leave all all the caramel apples behind us? Why wait for another treat until Turkey Day? I think we should all eat good foods that treat us every day! I actually…
Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Bread
I love having daughters who like to bake. We are getting spoiled by hearing “what can we make?” whenever they are home. I have already shared posts of Arielle’s zucchini chocolate chip bread, this time it was Emily who came home and wanted to bake. Emily had just made pumpkin bread at school so she…
Peach-Almond Granola
I honestly don’t think anything I make is more appreciated by my family than my granolas (especially the Passover granola, but you’ll have to wait for that one). I like to vary what is in the granola by what is available the freshest (fresh – granola – huh?). High quality fruits and nuts make a…
Cammy’s Cinnamon Raisin Challah French Toast
There is nothing better than challah french toast except, perhaps, cinnamon raisin challah french toast! And who better to make it than our own Top Chef, Cammy? See the recipe for the cinnamon raisin challah in the recipe for raisin challah. The bread is so flavorful, that a very basic egg dip can be used….
