Favorite Oatmeal Muffins by Salad FoodieNo, not just my favorite oatmeal muffin, these are actually my Number 1 Favorite Muffin ~ period! I love that they are comparatively low-fat and won’t make your fingers greasy as you eat them. I love the chewy texture of oatmeal, the sweetness of raisins and cinnamon, and the spongy texture buttermilk imparts to baked products. I… |

Carrot Pineapple Nut Bread by Salad FoodieGolden colors of sunrise greet you in a slice of Carrot Pineapple Nut Bread. And if the colors aren’t enough to pique your senses, the flavors will. Vanilla and cinnamon subtly elevate the feature ingredients - carrots and pineapple - but like a perfect marriage, none of them overpower one another. I think you’ll enjoy making and… |

French Bread by Traditional Yeast Method (no bread machine) by Salad FoodieExperimenting with several ways to get a good loaf of French bread without using my bread machine, I am ready to share this version over all I tried. It has a chewy crust and a beautiful fine grain. While my bread machine version (see "Useful Links" below) takes only about 5 minutes of active chef time, this recipe requires perhaps 35… |

Favorite Buttermilk Waffles (with Whole Grain option) by Salad FoodieButtermilk makes baked products divine, and this is the way I use it in waffles. White whole wheat flour or whole wheat pastry flour can be subbed to boost nutrition. Lazy soul that I am, I mix the batter in a blender and use that as a pitcher to pour them conveniently.

Small loaf pans are ideal for baking if the end purposes are hors d'oeuvres, sliders, or open faced mini-sandwiches.

German Chocolate Cookies by Salad FoodieThis recipe from the BHG.com website was developed as a healthier alternative to outright decadent German chocolate cake. Rolled oats and flax meal are substitutes for part of the all purpose flour, and butter and sugar have been reduced. I resisted the urge to tweak ingredients as I often do, and was pleasantly surprised that they… |

Cinnamon-Raisin Graham Bread (for bread machine dough cycle or conventional yeast bread method) by Salad FoodieThis is baked whole grain bread at its best, and amply satisfies my yen for cinnamon raisin bread! The grain of the loaf is fine and the taste lightly sweet. Savor a slice of the flavorful bread alone, or add a smear of cream cheese or butter. Use as… |

Zucchini Golden Raisin and Sunflower Seeds Bread by Salad FoodieI haven’t tasted a better zucchini quick bread than this. The moist golden loaf makes a great seasonal or hostess gift. I almost tampered with perfection on my trial run with the recipe (from Lou Seibert Pappas’ A Harvest of Pumpkins and Squash), but then decided to go with the original version, and am I ever glad I did - it’s… |

Leftover Oatmeal Raisin Nut Muffins by Salad FoodieLeftover cooked oatmeal joins basic quickbread ingredients to make a delicious batch of muffins. Rather than wasting excess cooked oatmeal, freeze in measured batches for using up in baked goods such as this recipe. It's surprising what a win/win this can turn out to be. |
