Blueberry Breakfast Cookies

September 27, 2015 by kim 2 Comments

Let’s talk about breakfast for dinner, shall we? I will happily have eggs, bacon, hash browns, and toast for dinner. It has to be one of the easiest meals to make, but it’s always so satisfying. For dessert, I’ll eat a waffle doused in cinnamon sugar.

Breakfast for dinner is a lot more common than you think. Did you know that nine out of ten Americans say that they eat breakfast for dinner, with more than half of respondents enjoying breakfast night dinners once a month or more? Even when you eat a bowl of cereal in the evening, that counts as breakfast for dinner!

The folks over at Krusteaz have “Breakfast Night” every Wednesday night for National Breakfast Month (it’s September, by the way). It’s so easy to do with all of their tasty pancake and waffle mixes. I actually ended up using their Wild Bluberry Muffin mix to make one night’s dessert.   IMG_7726

I tweaked it just a bit to the ingredients that I had on hand. Instead of using almonds and cranberries, I threw in walnuts and white chocolate chips. I’m sure the original version is delicious, but man, mine were kick-butt-good.

You have to give them a try! Each bite just screams “breakfast.” The best part is they’re made using a mix, so it’s beginner friendly and great to make with kids. I made mine bite-sized, but you can also make massive ones if you only want to eat “just one.”

Berry Nut Oatmeal

I’ve been eating a lot of oatmeal recently. The packets are easy to pack, a cinch to make (all you need is some hot water!), and it’s nutritious. Not only that, but it tastes good! It took me a while to jump on the oatmeal train, but I’m glad that I finally did. Start your kids off early and introduce oatmeal to them at a younger age. They’ll appreciate it when they’re older. I know I would have! I change up my flavors quite a bit. Depending on my mood, I’ll add bananas and honey or cinnamon and apples. Today, I was feeling berries and nuts. The great thing about oatmeal is that you can adjust it to your liking. Some like it sweet, some like it hearty. I’m all about the sweet.

I was so excited to try C&H® Pourable Golden Brown Sugar and C&H® Quick Dissolve Superfine Sugar, which are perfect for mornings. Light brown sugar is usually clumped together and harder to separate, so it was wonderful to use a brown sugar that’s made for pouring. You can pour them onto your oatmeal, fruit, or even into your coffee without worrying about chunks of brown sugar coming out thanks to the convenient dispenser. It’s never been easier to portion your sugar servings. The packaging fits into my hand perfectly, so I have better control when pouring. Even when you use it for baking, there’s no longer the need for “packing” your brown sugar. Each cup of pourable light brown sugar is equal to a regular cup of brown sugar. My favorite part is that it has a re-closeable flip top lid! There’s no more worrying about your sugar drying out.

The Quick Dissolve Superfine Sugar is available in the same packaging as the Pourable Light Brown Sugar. Its finer texture makes it ideal for rapidly blending into drinks. Look for the new flip-top sugar canisters from C&H® Sugar, or its sister brand, Domino® Sugar (available in the eastern half of the U.S.), at a grocery store near you. For a coupon, visit chsugar.com/flip-top-sugars or for Domino® brand, visit dominosugar.com/flip-top-sugars.

Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

January 22, 2015 by kim 1 Comment

Why is it always so hard to blog the first quarter of the year? I’m the worst. Apologies.

I’ve had a lot of kitchen fails recently with cookies that come out completely flat. I’m talking so flat that I can’t even take them off of the baking sheet without breaking them into a million pieces. We all have our off days/weeks/months(?). I’m no different.

These cookies are still a little flat for my liking, but they still hold their shape. That’s okay because this cookie dough is all sorts of yum.

Hopefully this baking slump passes by sooner rather than later!
