Not that you should ever feel guilty about eating doughnuts, but this may be the healthiest doughnut recipe I’ve created or eaten so far. It’s got sour cream instead of anything heavy. The doughnut batter also has vanilla protein in it and there’s matcha in the frosting. So if you’re looking for a light, refreshing […]

Working from home can make it difficult to want to eat all the food and beverages you have already bought from the grocery store and have handy. It’s tempting to want to run to the local coffee shop every day and get a coffee. But then you might start doing that every day and adding […]

There might be nothing better than an almond flavored cookie. This recipe has exactly that and a chocolate hazelnut filling – Nutella! I’ll definitely be making these for my next family get together.

It’s Memorial Day weekend, which means we’ve got 3 mornings to wake up at whatever time we want and make some tasty breakfast! I can’t think of a better combination than waffles, Nutella and bananas. This recipe has bananas in the batter and as a topping. Sometimes bananas make batters a strange consistency, but this […]

Cookies are a staple for any person who, well, eats food. It’s nice to have a couple recipes up your sleeve for when you want a cookie that’s not loaded with sugar, but also tastes delicious. I love cookies with texture to them, and the oatmeal and chocolate chips in this batter combine for the […]
