July. August. September. September. October. I am usually pretty tired of making cakes by the end … Continue reading

Whole Wheat Zucchini Bread
I am starting to feel like we are having zucchini and squash coming out of our ears! I don’t stress about this though because these are some of my favorite summer veggies. They are not only good for grilling and stir-frying, but also make an awesome bread! When we have more than we can use … Continue reading
Skillet Cherry Cobbler {Whole Wheat and Dairy Free}
With all of the cherries that we have been picking, cleaning, pitting and freezing this past week I thought we deserved a little cherry treat now {instead of waiting for winter to roll around to pull them out of the freezer}. What was decided upon? Cherry cobbler. Just as tasty, if not more so, than … Continue reading

Strawberry Rhubarb Pie {and Grandma’s Rhubarb Pie}

I picked some rhubarb last week and was just itching for a time when I could make a strawberry rhubarb pie and post this great recipe. You see, my grandma always made rhubarb pie growing … Continue reading
Whole Wheat Pie Crust {made with coconut oil}
Today’s writing is about sort of an experiment that I did. I made pie crust with whole wheat flour {well, almost completely whole wheat flour} and coconut oil. I love whole wheat, don’t get me wrong. But when it comes to pie crust…ehhh, let’s face it…working with all-purpose flour is a bit easier. If you … Continue reading

Orange Sweet Rolls
This past week we celebrated Easter and we had a great time celebrating Jesus’ resurrection with family! One tradition that my husband’s family had when he was younger was that every Easter they would make orange-infused bread in the shape of little bunny rabbits. It has been a few years since we have done this … Continue reading
