Breakfast
Cinnamon Roll Cake
Cinnamon rolls are amazing things....I'll be the first to admit this. But making them? Especially gluten free? Not so amazing. Doable? Yes. But this Cinnamon Roll cake is SO AMAZING to eat and make that we do this about once a month instead! This makes a special breakfast, afternoon snack, or even dinner on those nights that we all have. 😂 You will not be disappointed—this will fit the bill for a warm cinnamon roll in your life! And your kids will never know the difference.
Blueberry Breakfast Cake
Can you smell this? Oh, it's divine! A blueberry breakfast cake is the perfect way to start any day. Blueberries, lemon zest, a not-too-sweet cake, and coarse sugar topping. The ingredient we have to thank for this deliciousness is buttermilk! I feel like any recipe I have that uses buttermilk is my favorite. Serve this alongside some bacon or sausage and scrambled eggs, and you have yourself the perfect breakfast or brunch. Now is the time to try this with blueberry season just around the corner!
Blueberry Cinnamon Toast Bakes
These little breakfast gems are like a special morning treat but are so simple to make! Who doesn't like cinnamon-sugar toast and hot blueberries that POP in your mouth when you eat them? We've been making this recipe for over 8 years now and never tire of it. It's a great after school snack too.
Aebleskivers
Due to our Danish heritage, my grandma loved making her family aebleskivers. When I first got married we invested in an aebleskiver pan and have since perfected the art of making these beautiful golden balls gluten free. Light and fluffy, they are a cross between a donut and a pancake. We love them topped with powdered sugar and maple syrup.
Good Morning Juice
One of our favorite restaurants in New York City is Sarabeth's. Located just south of Central Park, it's a regular for us when we visit because the food is SO AMAZING. (The tomato soup is to die for!)One morning for breakfast we were offered some "Four Flowers Juice" and thought we'd give it a try. It was superb! The best juice I've tasted. It was also $12 for a glass of it, so we laughed as we took small sips and then said, "well, that was about a dollar right there! "When I got their cookbook last year, I was very happy to be able to make this juice right at home....and not have to sip so sparingly! This recipe has been tweeked a little, but tastes just like sipping in NYC. Enjoy!
Orange Rolls
My kids had never tried an orange roll until I made these! Oh happy day when you can give them something they never thought they could have. Rolls like these or cinnamon rolls are labor intensive, and take time with rising, but they are not hard and are so worth it! Sweet orange sugary butter is nestled in the roll dough and then slathered with an orange cream cheese frosting. It's as good as it sounds, and I hope you'll give them a try!
