Pumpkin Overnight Oats

These pumpkin overnight oats are my favorite fall breakfast! They're creamy, warmly spiced, and naturally sweetened with maple syrup. Mix up a jar in just 5 minutes!

fall / breakfast

I make this pumpkin overnight oats recipe on repeat for breakfast every fall. The oats are creamy, warmly spiced, and lightly sweet, thanks to a teaspoon of maple syrup. They’re practically pumpkin pie in a jar. The ingredients in this recipe are simple—just oats, pumpkin puree, chia seeds, maple syrup, almond milk, and a few cozy spices. I love that I can mix them up in just 5 minutes and then let the fridge do the rest of the work overnight. In the morning, I top them off with coconut whipped cream and toasted pecans for the ultimate fall breakfast…

Cottage Cheese Pancakes

Cottage cheese pancakes? You betcha! They're thick, fluffy, and packed with 7 grams of protein each. They have a delicious sweet vanilla flavor—you can't taste the cottage cheese!

breakfast / easy

This cottage cheese pancakes recipe is a delicious high-protein breakfast. Thanks to the cottage cheese and eggs, each pancake packs in 7 grams of protein! Better yet, the pancakes don’t actually taste like cottage cheese. Instead, they’re perfectly fluffy, moist, and filled with a lightly sweet vanilla flavor. Pass the maple syrup, please! I’ve been hesitant to use cottage cheese in sweet recipes ever since I tried cottage cheese cookie dough a few years ago (it was…not for me). But recently, I realized I’ve been adding cheese to pancakes for years in my lemon ricotta pancakes recipe. If I blended the…

Turkish Eggs

In this Turkish eggs recipe, poached eggs are served over garlicky yogurt with a spiced Aleppo pepper sauce on top. It's a delicious savory breakfast!

breakfast / easy

I’ve made this Turkish eggs recipe more times than I can count in the last few months. It’s become a breakfast staple in our house, on repeat on busy weekdays and lazy weekends alike. It starts with a base of garlicky yogurt that I top with poached eggs and a richly spiced Aleppo pepper oil (butter works too). I round it out with a sprinkle of fresh herbs and pita bread for scooping everything up. Ready in 20 minutes, it’s such a quick yet satisfying breakfast. The eggs and yogurt pack it with protein (we’re talking 22 grams per serving!),…

Apple Bread

This apple bread recipe is moist, warmly spiced with cinnamon, and packed with juicy apples and walnuts for crunch. It's an easy, delicious fall treat!

fall / baking

This apple cinnamon bread is exactly what I want to bake (and eat) on a crisp fall day. It’s moist, tender, and full of fall goodness—juicy apples, crunchy walnuts, and warm spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger. I add applesauce to the batter in addition to the fresh apple pieces, which makes it extra-moist and rounds out the sweet apple flavor. It’s so good that I’ve made it 3 times in September already (we went apple picking, what can I say?). I hope you love it as much as I do!

On busy mornings, I love having a stash of these oatmeal bars on hand. They’re a perfect grab-and-go breakfast, packed with hearty oats, walnuts, dried cranberries, and eggs to hold them together. They have a delicious soft-baked texture, and brown sugar and cinnamon fill them with sweet, spiced flavor.

I adapted this oatmeal bars recipe from my baked oatmeal. When I started working on them, my goal was for them to have…

Rhubarb Muffins

These rhubarb muffins are moist, tender, and bursting with tart, juicy summer rhubarb. I love them for breakfast or as a snack with coffee or tea!

These rhubarb muffins are so good, I just ate two fresh from the oven. They’re moist, tender, and perfectly puffy, with chunks of juicy rhubarb strewn throughout. I love that they’re not too sweet—the tartness of the rhubarb really shines through, as does the warm flavor of the vanilla extract in the batter. Bonus: they’re a fully acceptable choice for breakfast! I often reach for one as a snack with my afternoon coffee too. This rhubarb muffins recipe is easy to make in right around 30 minutes.
