Russian black bread is a very delicious bread full of flavor that I happened to stumble upon when looking for a different recipe that I still haven’t figured out. I am so glad I found this recipe though, it is amazing. You can see from the photo I let it over proof a little, and [...]

This is a moist, flavorful bran muffin you’ll have to try to believe. It’s full of raisin and orange flavors that make the perfect breakfast. I researched several recipes before combing 2 to get the results I wanted. My main inspiration was David Lebovitz bran muffin. He uses raisin puree and orange zest. I used [...]

Banana bread is a breakfast staple in our home. I have read so many interesting variations on banana bread around the blogosphere. I first saw the idea for using coconut milk on Kathy’s site, Are You Hungry. I admit, I am not good at reading recipes and taking them down, but I do remember the [...]

I have had the idea that I was going to start making homemade bread for quite a while now. However, I never seem to get around to it. Buying bread seems so much easier, although it is not nearly as tasty and much more expensive. I’ve only made wheat bread one other time, and the [...]

They make a perfect accompaniment to any special dinner, especially a special Sunday dinner. What’s great about these dinner rolls is that you can also make them ahead [...]

I hope everyone had a wonderful New Year’s Day. We enjoyed a wonderful ham, turnips, buttermilk mashed potatoes, and spicy black-eyed peas. I also made these yeast rolls for the first time. They were the most delicious rolls I have ever had. The buttermilk makes them so tender. The small amount of added sugar makes [...]

Happy Thanksgiving everyone. I will just be making this one post this week, and taking the rest of the week off from blogging to spend time with family, cook, fall cleaning, shopping, and decorating for Christmas. Yes, including spring cleaning, I also do fall, winter, and summer. I realized I had not shared my favorite [...]

Apples and caraway seeds are a perfect match in this bread, and a wonderful alternative to apple and cinnamon. For this recipe, I used [...]

This is a delicious quick bread. It is so fast and easy. I remember the first time I had zucchini in a dessert, it was in brownies. I was working a t a dental office, and one of the patients brought in a batch of wonderful homemade brownies. Her brownies were delicious and nutritious, and [...]

This is a delicious variation of my families classic butter palm biscuit recipe. It is very simple to make and full of flavor. I made these for my husband on Father’s day, and they were gone by the afternoon, he could not stop munching on them. And these are a lot easier to make at [...]

These are a delicious family recipe. This is the method that my mom, grandmother, granny, and her mother, and her mother made biscuits. I can only assume that this method that has been passed down in my family came from a time when no one had rolling pins, or thought to cut a biscuit out [...]

I tried several blueberry muffin recipes, before coming up with this one. I noticed that recipes for blueberry muffins in old cookbooks have about half the amount of sugar as modern cookbooks and recipes. So I compromised, so the muffins aren’t too sweet or sour. However, if your blueberries are super sweet, you may want [...]
