White Cake Balls
If you are curious about how to make cake balls for the first time, then you are in the right place. In this case, I baked a simple, straightforward white cake and it smells so yummy.
Campfire Cupcakes
Whether you are waving goodbye to summer, or just want an adorable celebration of all things camp, these adorable campfire cupcakes are sure to make everyone smile. Just a handful of ingredients: chocolate cupcakes that you make or buy at the store, Tootsie Rolls candies and some orange and yellow colored icing, and baby you’ve got a “real” fire goin’!
Blue Frosting (Dye-Free or Gel)
Two drops of gel into a bowl of white frosting and you have the shade of a deep summer sky. A teaspoon of blue spirulina powder into a second bowl and you have the soft, dusty teal of seaglass.
TikTok Cinnamon Rolls
As these cinnamon rolls bake, the cream softens the dough and creates a custard-like richness. A butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon mixture melts into syrup between the spirals.
Blueberry Pancakes
Meet the easiest blueberry pancake recipe ever! It uses a doctored baking mix and only takes a few minutes to prep.
Chocolate Chip Cream Cheese Danishes
This recipe makes a dozen chocolate chip cream cheese danishes, the shortcut version of a coffee shop classic: puff pastries with scored borders that rise and bake up golden, a lightly sweet vanilla cream cheese filling, with a smattering of mini semi-sweet chips that soften but keep their shape.
Cinnamon Sugar Biscuit Dough Donut Holes
Once drained and rolled through cinnamon sugar, the crisp exterior gives way to a tender, buttery center. Dunked into the warm chocolate sauce, these easy biscuit dough donut holes become an unexpectedly luxurious breakfast or quick sweet bite.
Strawberry Granola Yogurt Parfaits
Layers of fresh strawberries, Greek yogurt, and crunchy granola make a perfectly delicious breakfast or mid-day snack.
Apple Fritter Monkey Bread
This apple monkey bread recipe transforms simple refrigerated biscuits into an impressive breakfast bread that tastes just like apple fritters. I pour a rich brown butter sauce over the top to create those signature gooey pockets that make monkey bread with apples so irresistible.
Pumpkin Spice Donuts
Just imagine yourself creating a batch of warm, homemade pumpkin spice donuts fresh from the fryer. Then, imagine dipping each one in a luscious vanilla buttermilk glaze.
Cinnamon French Toast
Are you ready for comfort food perfection?! This version is unbeatable: thick bread, extra egg, and a cream twist.
Raspberry Cream Cheese Crescent Ring
Using a couple cans of crescent roll dough and some raspberry pie filling, you’ll get about 12 generous servings of a sweet cream cheese dessert that’s budget-friendly, ridiculously easy, and—dare I say—just a smidge better for you than donuts. (Let’s go with it.)
Banana Coffee Cake with Browned Butter Frosting
This banana coffee cake combines the best of all the banana sheet cake worlds: fresh banana, dense, rich coffee cake, and a browned butter frosting. Use a 9×13 for the classic feed-a-crowd breakfast coffee cake.
Cherry Danishes
As the puff pastry bakes, the scored edges rise into golden walls while the center stays level, holding a soft layer of sweetened cream cheese. A spoonful of glossy cherry pie filling finishes each pastry with deep red fruit.
Easy Banana Pancakes
This is our easy banana pancakes recipe. On those days when we have some bananas that are starting to turn brown, we mush them up and make banana pancakes.
Baked Apple Cider Donuts
Get homemade flavor with this baked apple cider donuts recipe: I stir spice cake mix, applesauce and apple cider (not juice) into one bowl and the batter comes out thick. Dunk each donut into a bowl of cinnamon sugar so it comes out looking sandy.
Mixed Berry Pastries
🥐 Fresh berries nestled in buttery, flaky puff pastry create individual treats that look like they came from a fancy bakery, but take just 20 minutes of prep!
Crockpot Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls
Here’s a slow cooker breakfast recipe (or brunch, of course!) that won’t take up the oven or need you to roll out your own dough. Just 90 minutes on high and you have lush, steamed pumpkin cinnamon rolls (all the edges become like the center).
Oven Baked Bacon
Bacon is everywhere—elevating the humble breakfast egg or featured in beer-and-bacon flights at pubs around the country.
