Quick and Easy Homemade Bagels

This recipe for fast and appetizing baking powder bagels uses either wheat or gluten free flour and has 5 simple ingredients – 6 if you add sesame seeds sprinkled on top before baking. My recipe uses dairy-based Greek yogurt which is higher in protein than regular yogurt, is a good source of calcium, vitamin B2 and B12, selenium as well as vitamin A, zinc and potassium. Plain Greek yogurt is low in carbs and has little sugar. The flavoured varieties have more sugar so eat those in moderation. These heavenly rings are delicious hot from the oven or next day plain or toasted. So. Very. Good.

One Bowl Sheet Pan Pancakes

How quick and easy these sheet pan pancakes are to make, and one bowl makes cleanup easy too.  These pancakes bake in 15 minutes so you can have breakfast ready quickly. Plus, this dish saves standing by the stove to flip individual pancakes (I do love me some stacked pancakes too thought!). Customize these sheet pan pancakes however you like – berries in one area, chocolate chips in another, almond butter and banana in another and pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds and coconut in another – as in the photos.   What would you choose?  What are your family’s favourites? Serve with a drizzle of maple syrup - delish!

Blueberry Muffin Coffee Cake

Such a lovely coffee cake! It’s delicious and is a wonderful cake to make to serve with a cup of coffee or tea or for dessert with some whipped cream and blueberries on top. Its consistency is a little denser, and why it has ‘muffin’ in its name. It’s utterly divine! It makes a delicious breakfast treat too!
