Vegan Banana Blueberry Morning Cake

November 12, 2011 by Melissa

 In my house, banana bread is a favorite. I make it as often as I can, but not often enough. Once while Steve and I were in Dallas, we went to a yummy little restaurant for brunch (mimosas!) and they served a "bread" before the meal that was the equivalent of a chocolate chip muffin, in pan form. I've always kept that in the back of my mind, and have been wanting to make a banana bread version of … [Read more...]

Quest Bars: Product Reveiw

November 11, 2011 by Melissa

I had every intention of coming home last night and baking up a whirl-wind of treats! But, instead, I rolled home with too much back pain to stand and too hungry and tired to function. Alas, the baking didn't get done. And after a burnt pan of popcorn, I gave up on the kitchen and went to bed. So, instead I will share with you a review of my latest daily noshing: I received a box of Quest … [Read more...]

Sweet Potato Muffin Roll, for one

November 7, 2011 by Melissa

Look at those orange specks!  Sometimes we just have an over-abundance of sweet potatoes in the fall... I was gifted a large bag of sweet potatoes by the kindest guest in the bakery (anybody who brings me gifts is a-okay by me). She said that her garden had been overflowing with them and she wanted to know what to do with them, besides eat them straight. I baked them up a few at a time to keep in … [Read more...]

Little Bread Co: A Review

November 6, 2011 by Melissa

I have to say, I have always loved Fayetteville's Little Bread Co (located on Block street) because of their muffins. My dear friend Jessi and I always had a Saturday morning farmers market routine that involved going to the Little Bread Co for muffins and danish and cappuccino before shopping for local produce. This was the perfect start to a relaxing weekend. Thus, I confess, I had never eaten … [Read more...]
