I’ve been pretty remiss on updating during the Summer. Let’s just say that I’ve been out and about… or something. Now, it’s fall… and I miss all the things Summer had to offer. One thing I miss is blueberries. In the months of June and July, Wholefoods had great blueberries on sale for $1.99, so I tried to get my fill. I’d pick up cartons of cartons and you can bet we were having blueberry pancakes! Other things that made the cut: fluffy muffins and frozen yogurt!
By far my favorite muffin recipe that I’ve tried is Smitten Kitchen‘s muffin recipe. The texture is just so lovely! I like the change this recipe for the fall and use fresh cranberries. (I wash and cut them into halves. I add TONS to the batter and some of them get soft, burst, and they get so delicious.)
Another favorite during the Summer was frozen yogurt. It’s SO MUCH easier to make than custard ice cream. I also feel like it’s a little healthier. You basically get some plain yogurt, add some honey/sugar/maple syrup as you want, and then any fruit (frozen is fine – I would add some more honey and let it defrost). I like to run some handfuls of berries through the food processor, so the yogurt gets colorful.
