  • Whole Grain Pie Dough

    Whole Grain Pie Dough… No cardboard texture issues here!  Lately, I am finding myself eating a lot more. I’m stressed. I guess I can now classify myself as not only a person who eats because they are bored but as a stress-eater.  Because of this and my love for flaky pie crust and gooey brownies,  I…

  • Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Pancakes

    These Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Pancakes were made with whole wheat pastry flour and while it is in the title, I feel that it bears repeating: Chocolate chips. I do find it sort of sad when it is mid to late August and the leaves are already beginning to change to red, orange and yellow up…

  • Whole Grain Apple Cake

    This Whole Grain Apple Cake is my attempt to make my favorite desserts a little bit more healthful. I’ve made this apple cake quite a bit in my 28 years. It’s been passed down through my family but with a little too much sugar and some not so good for you oils.  I thought that…

  • Whole Wheat Zucchini Bread

    You won’t taste the whole wheat in this Whole Wheat Zucchini Bread recipe! It’s not too late for zucchini. I just got two massive zucchinis in my CSA share this week.

  • Whole Wheat Peanut Butter Cookies

    These Whole Wheat Peanut Butter Cookies are perfect on their own but I suspect if you dipped them in melted dark chocolate, they would be fab.  Sometimes it snows and you bake Peanut Butter Cookies.

    Cinnamon Brown Rice Pudding

    Rice pudding is so easy to make I’m not really sure why I waited so long to share it here. The best part about this brown rice pudding recipe is that you can also swap out the brown for white rice, if you are so inclined. I decided that I needed to make some but…

  • Simple Apple Crisp Recipe

    Apple crisp is one of those recipes that is so simple that it’s hard not to make a quick batch. Especially when you live in New York and it’s quite easy to get ridiculously crisp, sweet, and juicy apples. It’s almost a sin to buy them at the grocery store and not a farm stand.…
