Hello everyone! Hope you all are staying healthy and safe. In all of this stay at home stuff I’ve been spending even more time in the kitchen. Making up all sorts of new recipes, especially the sourdough variety. Something that I’ve been trying my hand at is sourdough banana bread. It took a couple tries to get this one right but I finally have a recipe for sourdough banana bread that is absolutely delicious!
…Breakfast
Homemade Creme Fraiche
This week I am taking a break from my sourdough recipes (don’t worry I have a lot more coming!) to share a recipe that I recently discovered. I have heard of creme fraiche but I had never tried it. I was reading this book called Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat and it mentioned creme fraiche in a recipe I wanted to try and after doing a little research I found out that it is super simple to make!
…Sourdough Waffles
Hello everyone! Hope you all are doing well and possibly enjoying some nice weather. We’ve had some gorgeous days lately but today is just a cloudy day.
One thing that can always bring me some cheer, even on a dreary day, is sourdough. Making sourdough recipes just makes me happy. There is more investment in a sourdough recipe and when you end up with something that tastes delicious it’s even more rewarding.
…Sourdough Pancakes
So after last week’s post, I wanted to make sure to get this pancake recipe out pretty quick. It’s a great recipe to start out with and it’s super simple to throw together.
…Shredded Beef and Potato Burritos
This is one of my favorite recipes from childhood. Funny thing is I had never actually made it! Until the last year or so I wasn’t a huge fan of cooking beef… I’m not talking about ground beef. It’s more of the steaks and roasts that I avoided. For some reason I was just intimidated by it! Not too long ago we purchased 1/4 of a cow and it came with a TON of steaks and roasts so I kinda had to put my fears aside and learn what to do with the different cuts. I have gotten a lot better at cooking/grilling steaks and most roasts I do fine with but I’m still working on my skills. 😀
…Strawberry Jalapeno Jelly
Oh my goodness it has been way too long since I have posted on the blog! In one of my last posts I had mentioned going back to work at the office a couple days a week and turns out I’m just not cut out to be a working mom. It was just too much for me to handle the office, keeping up with the housework, spending time with family and friends, and posting on the blog. So the blog suffered. 🙁 But now I am back to being a full time stay at home mom where I find the most enjoyment and that means I have time to sit down and share recipes and such with you all!
…Teddy Bears in the Apple Orchard
We are in another cold spell in our neck of the woods and so we just had to have a nice warm dessert to enjoy! Today’s recipe is one of my husband’s childhood favorites and a go-to for cold weather desserts.
…Homemade Coffee Creamer
A while back I posted a tutorial on how I make cold brew coffee. I was just starting to drink coffee a few times a week. Well now I don’t go more than a day without a cup. It is just so delicious and it also helps me get through the afternoon when I’m starting to feel like I want a nap but I can’t nap because nap time is when I can actually get things done!
…Buttermilk Scones
Lately I’ve been craving (which means making) a lot of homemade breads. Right now my go-to recipes are my buttermilk biscuits, sourdough bread, sourdough english muffins, and these buttermilk scones. …
Quiche with Hash Brown Crust
I recently was going through some of my old recipes and I came across one that I had totally forgotten about. Quiche! I do like traditional quiche with a pie crust but I feel like it’s pretty rich and I’m never able to eat very much of it. Maybe that’s a good thing BUT one day I got to thinking of other options and I thought of doing a crust made with potatoes…
I really thought I was the first to think of such a thing but a quick search on Pinterest and I realized a lot of people had thought of it. 😀 I got some ideas on a method and I came up with this quiche recipe. …
