Brown Sugar Bacon Waffles

⋅ Leave a comment

Hello my sweet readers! Happy Friday! As many of you know, my life has been pretty hectic lately!  Joe and I got engaged in December.  As if wedding planning isn’t stressful enough, we are also building a brand new house, which will be ready for us to move into in August.  I have put the blog on the back burner for the past couple of months, but I’m back now and more excited to post than ever!

What are everyone’s plans for the weekend? Brunch, perhaps? Today, I’m sharing a waffle recipe – perfect for brunching. These waffles are a little extra special because they have both brown sugar and bacon in them! Yep, you heard me! Brown sugar bacon waffles.  The perfect combination of sweet and savory. This recipe is from The Brown Eyed Baker.  I hardly adapted this recipe, but I did cut all the ingredients in half. Her recipe makes 7 large Belgian waffles, too much for just Joe and I.  We own a Cuisinart grill with waffle iron plates, and this made 6 small individual waffles.

Pumpkin Spice Blondies

⋅ Leave a comment

Hello my readers!! I hope you’re enjoying all of you leftover Halloween candy! How was everyone’s Halloweekends?  I unfortunately had to work all weekend (struggles of being a nurse!) I thankfully still managed to find time to bake. I made pumpkin spice blondies which I’m going to share with all of you today.  The best part about them is that they take 10 minutes of preparation and there is no mixer required.  They’re perfect when you’re pressed for time, just like I was!

Baked Pumpkin Donuts

⋅ Leave a comment

Pumpkin season is FINALLY here! It’s the best time of the year.  I’ve been making tons of pumpkin treats to share with y’all over the next couple of weeks.  Today I am sharing my baked pumpkin donut recipe. They are perfect in the morning with a hot cup of coffee (especially Wawa’s pumpkin spice K cups). I’ve made two different versions of these pumpkin donuts and I honestly can’t pick which one I like better! Continue reading →

Coffee Cake Muffins

⋅ Leave a comment

Since Labor Day is officially over, I can now start bringing some fall flavors to this blog!  (Watch out, pumpkin might be incorporated to every recipe I make…) To transition from summer into fall, today I am sharing with you coffee cake muffins!

Coffee cake muffins are the perfect breakfast with a cup of coffee.  They go great with cold brew coffee on those hotter days or warm coffee for when it’s colder in the mornings.  Joe has been dying for me to make coffee cake muffins ever since he tried Dunkin’ Donuts’ version, so this was kind of a no brainer to make.  Joe even helped make these! #joeBakes?

Vanilla Bean Cupcakes

⋅ Leave a comment

If I was given the choice to choose between a chocolate cupcake and this vanilla cupcake, I would choose these vanilla bean cupcakes every dang time.  Considering I’m the girl who is addicted to chocolate, that says a lot!

This cupcake is like biting into a vanilla frosted cloud. It’s so moist, light, and flavorful.  These are made with both vanilla extract and a vanilla bean so they have twice the amount of flavor compared to other vanilla cupcakes.
