Who said muffin tops were bad? Embrace those bulges with these healthier POWER muffs! All the yum, none of the guilt. I LOVE muffins. Love, love, love them.

Grilled Piña (Colada) French Toast
I think it’s safe to say that we all need a drink at this point of the pandemic. Let’s also put alcohol in our food…because that sounds fun! Whenever I travel to the Caribbean, I have piña coladas on rotate. They are thick, slushy and sweet, and just the perfect hot-day drink. And, obviously my…
Gluten Free Crepes with an Apple Cinnamon Compote
I was recently sent a soup maker in the mail. It has become one of my favourite small appliances because of it’s versatility and ease of use. What does that have to do with these crepes, you ask? I made them in it. It’s not just a soup maker, peeps, and you can find it…

It’s smooth, creamy, sweet and fruity. The perfect make-ahead dessert! This…

Apple Cardamom Hand Pies with a Rum Glaze
Hey cutie pie, how’s your day going? Going well over here because we have hand pies. Apple Cardamom Hand Pies, to be exact! I call them “hand pies” but they really should be called “foot pies” because they are bigger than the average hand. And that’s a good thing. This pie recipe is simple, quick…
