Don’t bother biting these guys in half. Eat them in one bite like sushi! And then eat at least one more, ok? These little lemony delights use olive oil instead of butter and are flavored with real fruit! So there you go! Lemon-Scented Olive Oil Mini Muffins Recipe from Cooking Light Ingredients: muffins – 1 cup all-purpose flour 1/2 cup granulated sugar 1 t baking powder 1/4 t salt scant 1/2 cup light sour cream…
I like Saturdays to be my bread baking day. I try to put off lunch until bread comes out of the oven. Then I simply slice the warm bread (too soon) and butter one slice and spoon strawberry jam on the other … and there you go. Lunch. Carb-style. Get carby with it, already. I made these mini baguettes with a sandwich in mind. A hip sandwich that would like nothing more than making my…

I’m sick of sandwiches. I had them for lunch and dinner pretty much all week. I’m never sick of apple pie. I am pretty happy that tonight Jacob made a huge dinner instead of my lazy sandwiches. I decided to make these pocket pies for dessert. They turned out delicious and perfect one person portions. I baked two out of the eight pies this recipe made and froze the rest so that at any time…
PLEASE NOTE: I’ve remade/photographed these since. For the updated post click HERE. My first favorite thing about these muffins is how the raspberries turn the icing pink and my second favorite thing is the way the raspberries are a surprise when you bite into these. The deliciousness is understood. These are pretty much cupcakes, that I’ve decided to call a muffins for breakfast’s sake. They seem like the kind of breakfast cake that should be served…
Someday I hope to have an oven that fits the big cookie sheets. Currently my oven is small and sassy. Someday I’ll eat these tartlets for dinner; you might be tempted to do the same… Someday I will make homemade lemon curd for these guys. Today, however, I used Trader Joe’s Lemon Curd which comes in a jar that deserves respect. So much so that I’ve been saving this jar for just the right recipe…
Why does the wind always blow the opposite way than my hair is parted? Why does Elliot think that his anger at squirrels will result in a treat? Why buy black corduroys when you can get mustard yellow? Why eat cereal for breakfast when you have sugar donut mini muffins? Why wouldn’t you make these?! These are most amazing right out of the oven, just after they are rolled in sugar. You can really taste…
You should probably know a couple things. I can be terribly impatient. I occasionally panic right before a recipe does what it’s supposed to. I’m also a mess when I stir. I’m pretty good at stirring in a way that splatters ingredients impressive distances. This frosting is beaten for quite awhile, and my cupboards and countertops and shirt and floor were freckled with chocolate when I was done. It turned out delicious though. These cupcakes…
