Do you ever have those “I’d like to make those sometime” thoughts, and then 5 years later, you finally actually do it? Well, that was me with these Sweet & Savory Mini Dutch Baby Pancakes. I love a good dutch baby. It’s like a low maintenance pancake that comes with a fun and dramatic presentation. However these mini versions are not only cute, but also great for feeding larger groups, or a family who can’t all agree on one kind of topping. A customizable single serve breakfast!
As much fun as it is to cook and bake festive and seasonally appropriate dishes all the time, there is something to be said for a classic, simple and easy standby for when you need dinner ASAP and don’t want to involve too many dishes. For me, my weeknight dinner go-to’s tend to involve protein + veggies + rice. Especially this Easy Baked Teriyaki Chicken that only requires 5 simple ingredients for the marinade. That’s it!
There is nothing quite like a fresh farm grown apple, straight from the source. I usually enjoy these most when I go to the pumpkin patch with my nephew each year. They are always so crunchy, sweet, tart, and perfectly ripe this time of year. And if I dare admit to it, I’m on team apple in apple v. pumpkin debate. I have long enjoyed the combination of apples and oats, so these Oatmeal Apple Walnut Muffins were an obvious creation.
One of the tried and true pairings of them all is pork and apples. This Roasted Sage Pork Tenderloin gives you exactly that. A one pan roasted dinner that combines the tasty flavors of apples, pork, mustard, and herbs all together. A simple marinade for the meat, and some veggies on the side. A quick weeknight dinner for these coazy fall evenings.
These fun buns came to be out of a desire to make cinnamon rolls, but also wanting a savory treat. I love satisfyingly springy brioche dough, and honestly, the more recipes I can come up with that use it, the better. But not everything needs to be sugary sweet. These Mushroom Duxelles Brioche Rolls are a great companion to your fall meals this year. They are earthy, herby, and fun to eat, as well!
