Swedish Nut CakeMy sister gave me this recipe years ago. I've made it many times and everybody just loves it. And so simple to make!
6 Week Bran MuffinsThe batter can stay in your refrigerator for 6 weeks, and you can bake as needed. I halved the recipe, baked them all, and froze them.

Coffee Shop Corn MuffinsThis is one of my family's favorite. I do have a question that I'm hoping someone can advise me. I would like to use mini-muffin pans but don't know if the temperature should be changed and also what the bake time should be.
Pancake MuffinsI am trying to eat healthier and to help accomplish that goal, I have been meal prepping. I still have quite a sweet tooth though. It' is hard to keep most sweet foods in the house because I' will binge on them. I found this pancake muffin recipe on Pinterest and it is the perfect sweet treat when I' am having cravings. I store the muffins in meal prep containers and freeze. When I want 1-2, I defrost & reheat in the microwave. Chocolate chip & blueberry are delicious. I look forward to trying other toppings too.

One Bowl Banana Muffins1/2 cup oil
Two Grain Raisin MuffinsThese are dense and will satisfy your hunger and keep you full. They are very healthy and freeze well.
Apple Cobbler (Gluten Free)I had enjoyed apple cobbler most of my life and used the simple recipe that called for a cup of self rising flour, a cup of sugar, a cup of milk and a stick of butter and sliced apples. Since I can no longer have wheat flour, I had to adjust the recipe to make it gluten free by using gluten free flour. It is good and my family loves it too. It also freezes well for later. I freeze it in serving sizes.
Crispy Rice Peanut Butter CookiesThis is a good recipe for using up leftover rice cereal, such as Special K or Rice Krispies. I've been making it since the late 60s.
Chewy Caramel Apple CookiesI love these cookies because they're kind of like a cross between caramel apples and warm apple pie. The freshly cooked cubes of apple really stand out under the gooey ribbons of caramel. My family enjoys these warm with vanilla ice cream- it tastes just like fresh apple pie a la mode (without the hard work). Give them a try!
Almond Flour Chocolate Beet CakeThis recipe doesn't use white flour while adding delicious beets to your dessert, but you'll never know it! A tasty dessert for kids or those watching their carbs but still needing a good dessert. Try it!
Chocolate Covered KumquatsDark chocolate is extremely healthy but not as appetizing as a sweeter or milk chocolate. So I've been melting mine and rolling kumquats, berries or even apple slices in it then freezing them for treats that satisfy my cravings while being healthy too. Easy and fast!

Sweet Potato PuddingAll ingredients do not have to be exact. Very easy, and can be made in different time slots when cooking.
Beet Cake RecipesPreheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour 9x13 inch pan. Put all ingredients except raisins, walnuts and powdered sugar or frosting in large bowl. Mix at low speed until well mixed, beat 3 minutes on high.
Chorizo MuffinsI want to share with you one of my all-time favorite recipes. Chorizo gives the muffins a special taste. The chorizo muffins can be cooked, according to your tastes, with spicy or not spicy chorizo. It is ideal as an aperitif or as a main course, accompanied by a green salad. It's very delicious, especially when the muffins are still a little warm.

Mocha ShakesMy family loves the Mocha shakes we get at Dairy Queen, etc., but at $3.50 a pop for a small, it's way too expensive! We've improvised at home, and now the Mocha Shakes are the favorite drinks of the house.
Banana Oat Chia MuffinsI wanted to make a healthier banana bread recipe. So I reduced the fat and sugar then added oats and chia. It came out pretty darn delicious.

Yellow Squash CookiesWe had an abundance of yellow squash one year. I adapted a carrot cookie recipe into this one. I took these to a potluck, everyone raved over them. The carrot cookie recipe said they had 40 calories per cookie, the squash probably has less.
