Snickerdoodle Muffins

Snickerdoodle Muffins by Nancy Miyasaki

Every mother should have these in her repertoire. One bowl, pedestrian ingredients, and children absolutely love them. These are buttery, sweet, with a soft, pillow-like texture–nothing to get in the way of appreciative grunts. I doubled this recipe and got 17 muffins, so a single will probably yield 8.

Easy Sour Cream Biscuits

Easy Sour Cream Biscuits by Salad Foodie

Quick to the table because there's no cutting of shortening into flour mixture. Just stir in sour cream, knead lightly, pat out, cut and bake. Couldn't be simpler to get homemade biscuits on the table. I like to use up the tail end of the sour cream this way.

Cornbread, Jalapeno Maple Bacon

Cornbread, Jalapeno Maple Bacon by Amos Miller

When the daytime temperature hits around 50 degrees and the evening plunges to 30 or lower, it is time to begin the annual maple syrup processing in our neck of the woods. We use it for many things and one of them is this cornbread. I first had a jalapeno cornbread in Texas, made by my sister's cowboy husband's aunt Netha, and…

World Champion Oatmeal Bars

World Champion Oatmeal Bars by Nancy Miyasaki

I make a lot of tasty brownies and bars, but few have gotten more raves than these. Of course, I served them to a bunch of SF Giants fans after the Giants won game 2 of the 2010 World Series...so the taste of victory may have mixed in with the chocolate, caramel, and oatmeal crunch of these yummy bars. Even without savoring the…

Buttermilk and Butter Biscuits - with Attitude!

Buttermilk and Butter Biscuits - with Attitude! by Salad Foodie

Playing with a biscuit recipe one day I pondered…..what if I subbed butter for the shortening and added some kick-up seasonings? The result got great reviews from guests…. and hours later and at room temp, the “attitude” was delightfully more pronounced.....mm-m! Buttermilk makes them tender and light, while the butter…..oh the…

Williams Sonoma Triple Chocolate Brownies

Williams Sonoma Triple Chocolate Brownies by Nancy Miyasaki

This is a very popular recipe that I simplified a bit without losing any of it's goodness. You can serve these when you feel like a dark chocolate cake but don't have time to hassle with it. They make a wonderful end to any meal! They are super chocolaty, so they go really well with a scoop of vanilla or coffee ice cream!

Granola

Granola by Arturo Scappaticci

A nutty, fruity homemade breakfast food. This remarkably simple recipe is a much more satisfying alternative to store-bought cereal or granola. Packed with vitamins, fiber and antioxidants, this is just as good for your mind as it is for your body. And it tastes delicious, too!

Buttermilk Banana Bread

Buttermilk Banana Bread by Nancy Miyasaki

I've made dozens of different types of banana bread, and this is one of my favorites. Our kids devoured it! My oldest told me "this is the best banana bread you've ever made, Mom." That's high praise from a 9th grader!

Southern Corn Bread

Southern Corn Bread by Salad Foodie

I was hesitant to try this because it was different than any corn bread I’ve ever made. The proportion of corn meal to flour for one, and then hardly any sugar. Now having made it I’ve decided southerners have it all right about corn bread, and I prefer this to the usual sweet variety. I like to use one third of the cornmeal as…

Gluten Free Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cupcakes with Chocolate Frosting by Shawn Christopher

When you're gluten free, there are certain things that you really miss. Chocolate cake and cupcakes were one of the things Shawn yearned for and I vowed to make them. These are super yummy and will delight everyone, gluten free or not.

Bailey's Irish Cream Brownies by Nancy Miyasaki

I love Bailey's, and these brownies are infused with irish cream flavor in both the batter nand the frosting. I found these irresistable, and so did our kids. They're a perfect treat for St. Patrick's Day or whenever!

Bushetta

Bushetta by Benjamin Christie

Bushetta is the Australian version of Italian bruschetta and I reckon it even tastes better too. So instead of using fresh tomatoes, olive oil and basil I use a combination of bush tomato chutney, yakajirri, macadamia nut oil and wildfire spice. It’s best to make them up just before you serve them otherwise the bread gets soggy and…

New York Style Spinach & Goat Cheese Pizza

New York Style Spinach & Goat Cheese Pizza by John Spottiswood

This is the pizza we made for the adults. It was fantastic! It reminded me so much of the pizza Nancy and I used to get from a small by-the-slice place in Hoboken, NJ when we were living in Weehawken. Very fond memories and very good pizza!
