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.

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. …
Buttermilk Brownies without refined sugar
I have a weakness. That weakness is eating desserts. Especially late at night. I know it’s an awful habit and if I really set my mind to it I would break it but I haven’t chosen to do that quite yet. 🙂

So I went looking through some of my old pins on Pinterest and found a recipe for a homemade chocolate syrup and it got me thinking of ways to make it without regular white sugar. …
Honey Vanilla Pudding
In my quest to remove refined sugar from our diet I came up with this pudding sweetened only with honey. Part of the reason I don’t want to eat so much sugar is that it is so addictive.

Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Granola Bites

Is anyone else like that? I could be completely satisfied with a meal but then I just feel the need to end my meal with something sweet. So that is where these peanut butter chocolate chip granola bites come into play! …
