Whenever bananas go bad in my house I usually make banana bread. It’s easy and delicious…only problem is it only last like an hour and then it’s gobbled up! This time when I had 3 over ripe bananas I made a banana cake. YUM! I’m not a huge cake eater…don’t get me wrong I like cake, but I don’t really like the store bought cakes that are served at birthday parties with 2 inches worth of frosting. ( And are my kids the only ones that just get the 2 inches of frosting and then leave the cake?!) I like these kind of cakes. Cakes that are a little more fancy than just chocolate or vanilla.
It has bananas in it, that makes it healthy right?!
So next time you have some bananas that are past their prime, give this recipe a try!

This is one of my go-to gluten free breakfast recipes! Last Christmas I was searching for a recipe that I could prepare the night before and then pop it in the oven in the morning. I had such a hard time finding something that didn’t have bread, so I came up with this ( I know I’m not the first person ever to mix these ingredients together, but this is what worked for me!) This recipe is gluten free because all of the ingredients are naturally gluten free. ( Make sure you check your hash browns and sausage first!)
The recipe is pretty versatile. You can add in peppers and onions if you like. I’ve used bacon instead of sausage. I’ve used less eggs if I don’t have enough. I’ve even used homemade hash browns! ( If using homemade hash browns I don’t recommend making it the night before because the potatoes will turn a nasty color and your children will refuse to eat it!! )
Make this the night before for an easy Saturday morning breakfast!

Enjoy!

-
- additional add-ins: bacon, peppers, onions, mushrooms...etc!

- Bake at 350 degrees for 30-45 minutes or until the eggs are done.
- Enjoy!
- *The dish can be prepared the night before and then baked in the morning.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE Honey Cinnamon Butter! Whenever I cornbread I make this to go with it. It’s so easy, only 3 ingredients! The only problem is that it’s so good you’ll want to eat it by the spoonful! I have to remind my family that to go easy on it. “Have a little cornbread with that butter!!” lol!
Enjoy!

Ingredients
- 1 Stick of Butter (softened)
- 1-2 tsp Cinnamon
- 1/4 cup Honey
Instructions
- Make sure your butter is soft. I don't recommend using the microwave because it's too easy to melt it.
- Once is can be stirred easily, mix in the cinnamon and honey. I usually do this by hand with a small spoon.
- Spread on cornbread, toast, rolls..etc!
- Enjoy!

Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day. So why just have it in the morning?! Sometimes for a special treat I make crepes…or as my family lovingly calls them, “Really really thin pancakes.” The kids love them! And surprisingly they are not that hard to make! The ingredients are simple and once you get the hang of pouring them and flipping them it’s a breeze!
My kids love them because they can fill them with what they like. We usually use fresh fruit, whip cream, peanut butter, chocolate sauce, cream cheese, jelly and syrup. But the possibilities are endless!
Enjoy!

Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 cup water
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and the eggs. Slowly add in the milk and water, stirring to combine. Add the melted butter; beat until smooth. You want to make sure that all the lumps are out.
- Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium high heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, I used about 1/4 cup for each crepe but that will depend on the size of the pan you choose. Tilt the pan with a circular motion so that the batter coats the surface evenly.
- Cook the crepe for about 1 1/2 minutes, until the bottom is light brown. Loosen with a spatula, turn and cook the other side. Serve hot.
