English Muffin Loaf

English Muffin Loaf

My Mom used to make English Muffin Loaf  and I am finally sharing the recipe from our family cookbook.  Every time I look through that book, I see recipes that I want to make and share on our blog and this is always one of those. Do you like English...

Sweet Potato Biscuits

Sweet Potato Biscuits

Sweet Potato Biscuits–the first time I had one was at Venters Grill in Greenville, North Carolina. Back in the day when I worked at what was then Burroughs-Wellcome Pharmaceuticals (makers of Neosporin, Sudafed, etc.), you would have just enough time to scoot down the...

Super Moist Bran Muffins

Super Moist Bran Muffins

I am so glad to share these Super Moist Bran Muffins today. Have you ever had a really moist, delicious bran muffin somewhere and then they don’t serve them anymore? Back in the late 90’s, I think, McDonald’s was trying to offer more healthy options at breakfast....
