Inside-Out Snickerdoodles

March 30, 2020January 27, 2021 Barbara

Put the cinnamon inside and avoid the rolling! I kinda like Snickerdoodles, because I like cinnamon, but I’m not really crazy about the burst of sugar and cinnamon on the tongue as soon as you take a bite. So I … Continue reading Inside-Out Snickerdoodles

Sour Cream Carrot Breakfast Muffins

July 9, 2017 Barbara

I know it seems too soon to post another muffin recipe, but the Tropical Muffins are gone, because my husband was eating them two and three at a time. Well, these are not so sweet, with only half the sugar, … Continue reading Sour Cream Carrot Breakfast Muffins

Slow Cooker Pulled Chicken

May 17, 2017 Barbara

My favorite way to use the slow cooker is on the high setting, where I can count on meats not being dried out and flavorless. That’s what I find happens when you cook meat for 8-10 hours while you are … Continue reading Slow Cooker Pulled Chicken

Raisin Filled Biscuit Bars

November 3, 2016 Barbara

I love a raisin filled cookie, but am not crazy about the process of rolling out and cutting the dough in circles and carefully filling them. I didn’t see why I couldn’t make them as a filled bar, kind of … Continue reading Raisin Filled Biscuit Bars

Spicy Skewered Meatballs

April 28, 2016 Barbara

It was one of those what-to-do-with-ground-beef days. I almost, in desperation, fell back on grilled burgers, even though it was only 54° outside, then wondered if I could do something different with meatballs—and I mean different from all the meatball … Continue reading Spicy Skewered Meatballs

New Gadget, Same Pulled Pork

April 3, 2016May 15, 2017 Barbara

I had a nice Cuisinart slow cooker for a long time, but the removable crock got a hairline crack, and eventually it leaked badly into the cooker. I don’t use a slow cooker very often, especially now that I’m retired … Continue reading New Gadget, Same Pulled Pork

Whole Grain Oatmeal Raisin Scones

March 15, 2016 Barbara

These will satisfy my recent desire for cookies that I shouldn’t eat. One scone for breakfast will do nicely, and isn’t a scone really a breakfast cookie, anyway? Rather than adding oatmeal to a scone recipe I already have, I … Continue reading Whole Grain Oatmeal Raisin Scones

Pumpkin Blondies

December 4, 2015 Barbara

Remember the Great Pumpkin Scarcity Caper, where we cleaned out the local grocery shelves of canned pumpkin because of the dog? You might remember that I confiscated 3 of the large cans for my cooking. I used one of them … Continue reading Pumpkin Blondies

Chunky Apple Walnut Cake

November 7, 2015 Barbara

I’m not sure where I copied this recipe from, but it’s on a post-it note, so it can’t be older than the late 70s. I just know that this whole wheat cake is an old favorite; it’s dense and moist … Continue reading Chunky Apple Walnut Cake

From Dry Rub to BBQ Sauce

October 29, 2015 Barbara

I really love the dry rub I have been using, borrowed from Chowhound and only slightly varied. It’s salty and spicy and just a little sweet—it’s everything I want in a BBQ sauce, without the vinegar/tomato/molasses base. I have bad … Continue reading From Dry Rub to BBQ Sauce

Happy Birthday to Me Apple Pie

October 26, 2015October 29, 2015 Barbara

Yes, it’s my birthday and I felt like having a little apple pie, with the emphasis on little. I have an 8″ Fire King Sapphire Blue Philbe pie dish that was my mother’s and I seldom use it, but it … Continue reading Happy Birthday to Me Apple Pie

Skip the Bananas, Add Pumpkin: Nut Bread

September 30, 2015 Barbara

It’s not that I don’t have two ripe bananas, it’s just that desire for a fall pumpkin flavor that inspires this play on my favorite banana bread. I stole a can of pumpkin from my dog’s pantry (she gets one … Continue reading Skip the Bananas, Add Pumpkin: Nut Bread
