Homemade Pita Bread
I wanted to do something new and challenge myself while treating my dear friends and family to a home cooked Mediterranean meal. I’ve eaten my fair share of Mediterranean cuisine from restaurants and from authentic home cooks and loved it ALL! This was my first attempt to make it at home.
The entire [...]
English Muffins Turned Into French Toast
Let me assure you, using whole wheat English muffins in place of regular French bread to make French toast is perfectly delicious!
You know how those mornings go. You want to eat a particular breakfast, but you don’t have all the exact ingredients. Well, I wanted French toast and only had day old whole [...]

Healthy Blueberry Muffins
This simple recipe is for breakfast or dessert. I made so many, we snacked on them all day long.
This past week, I picked up a 1/2 pint of organic blueberries from my local CO-OP just to bake muffins. My family absolutely loves blueberry muffins, so I wanted to spoil them just a bit. [...]
Carrot Cupcakes
My sweet husband’s birthday was Monday and one of his favorite cakes is carrot cake. Seeing we McKeever’s like to celebrate for days, I turned his favorite cake into cupcakes. He loved this, because it didn’t limit him on how many he could eat.
“A slice of cake visually says this is all you [...]
Oatmeal Raisin Muffins
My picky eating daughter asked if we could bake muffins together. We just happen to have the ingredients for these tasty little bites. They’ve made great snacks for us and they keep getting better with each day. My daughter has eaten more than any of us. I don’t mind, they’re healthy [...]

Cupcakes Kids Will Not Waste
For the past four years, I've attended my fair share of little kid birthday parties. I've observed and experienced that no matter how delicious the cake tastes or doesn't taste, it's the icing that gets all the attention.
Party after party, I watch kids ONLY eat the frosting off their cupcakes. Leaving behind a half eaten, [...]
Homemade Dinner Rolls
These soft, delicious dinner rolls are ready in one hour from prep to serving. That's really not long when considering how long yeast breads usually take to rise, knead, shape, rise again. (I don't bake yeast breads for that reason. I don't have the time or the patience.)
This recipe doesn't involve any extra work [...]
Moist Cornbread Muffins
This was the BEST CORNBREAD MUFFIN THAT EVER LIVED.
It's gone now, but it's left behind a memorable experience that my family will not let me forget.
This is a simple cornbread muffin recipe that can easily be sweetened up or made spicy. From here it can go either direction. Since I wanted them for their simple [...]
Apple Muffins
These apple muffins are just right for breakfast and as a snack!!!
I went shopping yesterday and bought a new mini-muffin pan. Right before bed, I got the idea to make something special for my husband to eat on his long commute into work. I had a small, Gala apple on the counter and [...]
Pumpkin Muffins
. There's more to bake with pumpkin puree than just pumpkin pie. Oh, you knew this already? Yeah, but have you tried doing anything with pumpkin puree besides pie? Up until that experimental batch of Pumpkin cookies, me neither.
Yesterday, I baked up a double batch of Pumpkin Cookies to give away to friends and [...]
