Breakfast and Brunch

This applesauce is delicious! I make it for my younger brother all the time and he loves it - and he hates canned applesauce!

This easy banana bread recipe is quick to prepare, and everyone always comes back for seconds!

Tall and fluffy. These pancakes are just right. Topped with strawberries and whipped cream, they are impossible to resist.

This recipe makes 2 full-sized loaves of tender, spicy quick bread.

Crowd pleasing banana pancakes made from scratch. A fun twist on ordinary pancakes.

These scrambled egg muffins with plenty of sausage and Cheddar cheese make a filling and fun treat at your next brunch. They're pretty, hearty, and fun to serve.

Refrigerated biscuits with cinnamon bake in a tube pan. My 7 year old daughter, Leah, loves her Monkey Bread. Enjoy!

The perfect fruit salad for a backyard bbq or any occasion. There are never leftovers! This is one of my favorite fruit salad recipes, as I think the sauce really makes it. This salad is tastier the longer you can let it soak in its juices. I prefer 3 to 4 hours in the refrigerator before I serve it. Enjoy.

It is so refreshing and it's sweet and tasty.

The right way to scramble eggs. There is more to just mixing eggs and cooking! This will make a believer out of you.

These are good any season but taste best on cold winter mornings. You can use canned or cooked fresh pumpkin.

Light and fluffy scrambled eggs are easy to make when at home or traveling! Everyone will love this quick energy bite to start the day. Top with pepper and shredded cheese, if desired!

Finally, after all these years, I've come up with a solution for people who can't decide whether to make an apple crumble or coffee cake. This features the best things about both of those recipes. It's like baking a crumb-topped coffee cake on top of another coffee cake!

This is a basic biscuit recipe with baking powder used as the leavening. They're easy to make and go with almost any meal.

This recipe was given to me, and I continue to pass it down to everyone who tries it! Aside from being so delicious, it's so versatile that I've even used it as a side dish for steak! This can be made the night before, then baked the next day -- allow 10 extra minutes of cooking time.

The first time I made these, I made a mess and they STILL turned out! They are gone in 2 days at my house. Simple to make and super yummy.

A good breakfast for weekends and even desserts. Serve rolled up and filled with jam or fruit and whipped cream.

These classic diner-style hash browns are crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside.

Mouth watering, bowl scraping good! This recipe also makes a great dinner entree!

These small, delicious sandwiches are perfect for any party. They are so good that even the pickiest of eaters will eat these.

Great recipe for shrimp and grits.

After testing many recipes for cinnamon rolls I found that just about any home-made roll can be good if you have the right icing. In too many recipes the cream cheese flavor overpowers the icing. Use this recipe for decadent cream cheese icing on your favorite cinnamon roll and you won't be disappointed!

Another husband-approved recipe. Made a couple times recently because of how easy it is to make! This recipe is easy to double or triple, but you may have to cook a bit longer if doing so.

This deceptively simple recipe can come out a million different ways with some very minor variations on the ingredients and amounts. This one's my favorite - flaky, but not dry; chewy, but not tough; crisp in just the right spots.
