Easy Peasy Apple Crumble

by 1 Comment

Whoa, WordPress has changed quite a bit since I’ve last created new content. I have no idea what I’m doing or how to format this post. I don’t even know where my recipe box went! Please bare with me as I try to figure out how to walk again in this blog world.

We just moved into a new house during this pandemic and it’s been tough not being able to go grocery shopping whenever I want. I can’t just bake things as I come across them since my pantry is not stocked. Luckily, I had everything in my very limited cabinet to make this apple crumble.

This is so good. I don’t know if it’s because I haven’t baked in a while or what but this really hit the spot. My DH even ate all of the topping and he doesn’t like oats or baked apples.

This recipe is from Shugary Sweets, who also has lots of other awesome recipes as well!

Instant Pot: Steel Cut Oats

by Leave a Comment

I think the instant pot is best known for making hard boiled eggs and oatmeal. It truly doesn’t get any easier than this. You throw everything in, close it, and then open it when it’s done!

Ellie likes to eat steel cut oats more than regular oatmeal and it usually takes so long to cook. This way, it cooks a lot faster and I can have it ready for breakfast in no time.

I kept my toppings simple since I was feeding a two year old, but you can add more if you’d like! Blueberries, honey, dried fruit, brown sugar, nuts, fresh fruit, granola, etc.

I have quite a few instant pot recipes to post, so be on the lookout for those coming soon!

Day 11: Oatmeal Toffee Cookies. I know I have a couple of other recipes listed on this blog, but I still haven’t found one that I LOVE and want to stick with for all of eternity.

It’s not bad to be on the hunt– it’s all about experimenting. Once I find the perfect oatmeal toffee cookie, it’ll be that much more rewarding!

These were pretty close, though. I loved the texture of these cookies and the thickness. Maybe I’m just being too picky about finding the right one.
