It’s fall y’all and we finally have a cool front rolling through Texas right now. (Hallelujah!) I say, bring on the cozy breakfasts that taste so good on a chilly morning with a cup of coffee. Which is why you are going to love this new breakfast recipe that is perfect for meal prepping and busy mornings with your family. If you are a fan of overnight oatmeal, then you are going to love hopping on board the baked oatmeal band wagon. This recipe is so perfect for simply making at the beginning of a week and having on hand to reheat and serve up for yourself and your kids on those crazy mornings when everyone needs to get out the door. I took my favorite oatmeal flavors and added some cozy chai spices to create one seriously delicious breakfast for you! My easy apple chai oatmeal bake is going to become your new favorite fall breakfast.
Breakfast is my family’s favorite meal of the day. They like to eat it for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, so any time of the day breakfast is a go around here. Matter of fact, we just had waffles last night for dinner and they were delicious. Every week I make a batch of my favorite waffles, usually on the weekend, because they freeze wonderfully and make for easy breakfasts all week long. I don’t know why I have never shared this recipe with y’all, because it is seriously the easiest and tastiest waffle recipe out there and the one I have been making for years. The only special equipment needed is obviously a waffle maker, which I highly recommend adding into your kitchen appliances if you don’t have one already. My easy waffles from scratch will have you wondering why you ever bought frozen waffles because they are just that simple and tasty!
I grew up in Tennessee and homemade biscuits were something that were weekend regulars at breakfast time. If you grew up in the south too, a good biscuit was probably a part of your childhood memories as well and maybe even if you didn’t grow up in the south! There really isn’t anything quite like a warm biscuit spread with a butter and a little jam or honey fresh out of the oven to start the day. I can’t really think of anything better to add to a brunch menu than homemade biscuits and if you are planning a nice stay at home Mother’s Day brunch, then these biscuits would be just perfect! While it took me years of being adult to actually start making my own biscuits, now that I do I see just how easy it really is and I can’t wait to show you how to do it too. Easy homemade biscuits will have you channeling your inner Ina (or in my case my Great Aunt Blanche) and they will come out perfect every single time.
When the world feels chaotic, my kitchen is a place where I find calm and comfort. Baking in particular is a place to go when I need to rest my brain and ground myself. There is something about perfectly measuring, pouring, mixing, and smelling the delicious comforting smells wafting through the house that is exactly what I need when I am feeling a bit of anxiety creeping in. Loaf breads are always my go-to method of baking because I always have ingredients on hand to whip some sort of variety that never disappoints. My blueberry muffin bread is just the sort of recipe to bring a bit of comfort when you need it most and makes for a delicious breakfast with a cup of coffee to start the day of right.
The holidays are over and if you are like us, this week is the week to get back to reality, work, and school. That means regular schedules, meal times, and having to adjust to not being in relaxed holiday mode anymore. With that being said, breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and yet I feel like it gets the least attention when it comes to meal time planning and prep. Mornings are typically rushed and having breakfast ready to go or at least figured out for the week with ingredients on hand, can make or break how smoothly your mornings can run for your family. I love having a mix of savory and sweeter options to mix and match throughout the week based upon how much time I have and what I am in the mood for. That’s why I compiled a list of my favorite top 25 go-to breakfast recipes for you to kickstart your mornings the right way!
My kiddo happens to be a donut lover. It’s the one thing he can’t resist and asks for whenever we are out and about and they are available. Of course the occasional donut indulgence is fine, but when you can make your own at home and the ingredients are all good ones, you don’t have to feel bad about serving them up to your kids any day of the week! With the end of summer approaching at a rapid pace, I find that everyone I know has a ton of zucchini in their fridge and I know I am always looking for recipes to use up my zucchini in new ways! My healthier chocolate zucchini donuts are perfect for a healthy and fun breakfast and they happen to be loaded with all the good stuff!
