No Bake Peanut Butter & Blueberry Oat Bars

December 7, 2025 Amanda Plott

If you think dessert has to be complicated, loud, or require the oven to audition for a spot on a reality show, think again. These No-Bake Peanut Butter & Blueberry Oat Bars are everything you want in a snack: chewy, slightly crunchy, subtly sweet, and packed with real ingredients that do good things for your body. They’ve got the nostalgic peanut-butter-and-jelly vibes with a modern, health-conscious twist—no baking, and zero guilt.

Why you’ll love them

  • Fast: Ready in about 20 minutes with a short chill time.

  • Nourishing: Rolled oats, nut butter, and chia seeds lend fiber, protein, and healthy fats.

  • Kid-friendly: Sweet but not cloying—perfect for lunchboxes or after-school fuel.

  • Pantry-friendly: Minimal ingredients, many of which you probably already have…

Bananas Foster Blended & Baked Oats

October 27, 2025 Amanda Plott

If you're a breakfast lover with a sweet tooth and a love for all things cozy, buckle up. Bananas Foster Blended & Baked Oats is here to revolutionize your morning routine. This isn’t your average boring bowl of oats—it's a quirky, healthy twist on the classic Bananas Foster dessert that will have you craving breakfast all day long.

Why Bananas Foster Oats?

Bananas Foster, traditionally a decadent dessert made with bananas, brown sugar, butter, rum, and cinnamon, screams indulgence. But who says indulgence can’t be healthy? By blending ripe bananas with oats and adding some warm spices, we crush the calorie overload and keep all the creamy, caramelized good vibes intact. Plus, baking the oats gives it a comforting, slightly crispy texture that feels oh-so-satisfying…

Skinny Pumpkin Cream Cheese Roll

October 1, 2025 Amanda Plott

The very first time that I had a pumpkin cream cheese roll, it was sometime in high school when my mom and I had purchased one from a local lady that made them from scratch around the holidays to sell for a little bonus side money.

It was one of the best things that I had ever eaten.

After that, I decided to try my hand at making one the following year. While it turned out well and was quickly gobbled up by my family (especially my little brother.) The task seemed daunting to me; mostly because I was so new to cooking and baking back then...
