I really love quick breads. I have a collection of many different kinds, but my favorite is always banana bread. We’ll start out this post with a banana bread recipe, but this particular one has two interesting twists, one of which may be new to you. I’m not sure how I found this recipe, it [...]
If you’re a follower of The Sweetest Kitchen, you may know that I have never baked with yeast because I lack the courage to do so. I want to make a batch of cinnamon rolls using yeast sometime, but because I’m too scared of yeast, I settled for a yeast-free version. Oh, they were very [...]
When was the first time you heard of Nutella and tasted it for yourself? For me, it was 1995. My foreign language class was planning a “field trip” to Spain and France for spring break of that year. I was one of the lucky few whose parents allowed me to go. A friend of mine [...]
I just love banana breads and muffins and have a collection of many different recipes for these. Earlier this week I chose to use a recipe from my Taste of Home cookbook, called Special Banana Nut Bread. As the name would imply, it is a recipe for banana bread, but I went out and bought [...]

I realize this is not the right time of the year for pumpkin-based foods, but I had a craving! I haven’t made this bread since living in Australia, about 3 years ago now, and I loved it then. The recipe I used comes from Simply Recipes (but left out the walnuts). After tasting the pumpkin [...]
I found the recipe for Starbucks’ chocolate cinnamon bread by total accident. I hadn’t even seen this particular bread for sale at my local Starbucks. It sounded way too nice to pass up on, so I bookmarked it for later – I used the recipe from Baking Bites, who made a few changes to the [...]
For some reason, I had always thought that French toast was a difficult breakfast to prepare. I was totally wrong. This is twice I’ve made this recipe in the past few months and I just love it. The first time I made this, I used regular whole wheat sandwich bread, and drizzled it with maple [...]
I love banana bread and had a great recipe, from Betty Crocker, I think, that I could swear by but have lost it somewhere. While on the search for another one I came across this one from Martha Stewart, which was a banana bread made with whole wheat flour and flaxseed (walnuts are also in [...]
