Blueberry Waffles

June 18, 2022 Amanda Plott

I have pretty much been in love with my waffle maker ever since I got it, if you couldn’t tell. I’ve been making all sorts of waffles. Sweet ones, savory ones, some with mixes, others from scratch. I’ve got to say though that these Blueberry Waffles take the cake. They’re made all in one bowl with very real and very simple ingredients that you probably already have on hand.

As I’ve been going through these different kinds of waffles, I’ve been playing around with different amounts and ingredients. These Blueberry Waffles end up being a bit lighter in both color and texture. And the blueberries in there add some texture and just a bit of chew…

Overnight Strawberries & Cream French Toast Bake

April 22, 2022 Amanda Plott

It’s been a rough week! But, somehow 'I’m pressing on. This Overnight Strawberries & Cream French Toast Bake is not only easy to put together and delicious, but it’s also lightened up and is the perfect make ahead breakfast for a busy weekend. I’ve made a blueberry version of it before, but I decided to change it up a little bit this time and use up these big giant beautiful sweet strawberries that we have popping up ahead of Summer now.

Which let me just say, Summer cannot come quick enough! The strawberry farm that we like to go to is open right now and I think I’m going to have to make a trip out there to pick some of my own strawberries soon. But… back to he french toast bake!…

Banana & Blueberry Breakfast Sweet Potato

January 10, 2022 Amanda Plott

I had some sweet potatoes that were in my pantry and leftover from Christmas and pretty much knew right away what I wanted to do with them, breakfast! I know that it sounds a little outside of the box to have sweet potatoes for breakfast, but it’s not all that uncommon. The last time that I made sweet potatoes for breakfast, I stuffed them with bacon and cheese for a savory twist but today we’re going sweet!

These sweet potatoes are baked and then simply stuffed with fresh blueberries, a touch of butter, banana, and honey! I added a touch of bee pollen to mine too for an extra bit of bitter and a little more of a sweet note…

Blueberry Poptart Stuffed Blended & Baked Oatmeal

Do you like pop tarts? Do you like blueberries? Then you’ve got to try this Blueberry Poptart Stuffed Blended & Baked Oatmeal! Okay, so I know that’s a mouthful, but it’s important to get the point across that these oats are blended into basically an oat flour and then used to make a cakelike or muffinlike base. So even if you aren’t a fan of oatmeal usually, you may like this blended option!

It’s a super clever and simple way to get some oatmeal in your life without the usual oatmeal texture. To make these oats even better, I stuffed them with blueberry goodness and topped it all off with a drizzle of glaze and some rainbow sprinkles, because sprinkles are life…

Blueberry Instant Pot Cobbler

July 10, 2021 Amanda Plott

Did you know that you can make cobbler in a pressure cooker? Turns out that you can and with only 5, yes 5 ingredients! That’s all it takes. This delicious Blueberry Instant Pot Cobbler takes less than 5 minutes of hands on time. The instant pot does all the rest of the work for you!

One of the best parts too is that it doesn’t even really heat up the house because you aren’t having to even touch or look at the oven. Which in the middle of summer here in Texas is a BIG deal. This cobbler has a very dense and moist cake to it, just as any sort of pastry that’s cooked in a pressure cooker. But, that' works out beautifully when you’re making a wet cake such as cobbler…

Blueberry Lemon Monkey Bread

March 27, 2021 Amanda Plott

It’s Spring and you know what that means - blueberry lemon things for days! This Blueberry Lemon Monkey Bread is pretty much the perfect Spring breakfast, brunch, or even dessert to make. Monkey bread of any kind has been one of my go-to breakfast options for years now. I think it all started when my little was actually little and monkey bread was one of those things that was easy for little fingers to grab and eat.

This monkey bread here is loaded up with big beautiful fresh blueberries and lemony goodness. It’s bright with the citrus of the lemon zest and has that hint of sweetness from the blueberries. Now, you could top this monkey bread off with some icing drizzle, but I thought it was pretty unneeded. A quick sift of some powdered sugar and some extra lemon zest and it was perfection!…
