I had a bunch of ideas for the muffin of the week. First I thought about making some kind of cornbread savory muffin, but then I realized that I want to save that one for when I make chili next week. Then I decided to make peanut butter and jelly muffins and realized I am…

Country Crunch Pancakes
These pancakes were awesome! They were so moist and hearty. The best part is the crunchy topping that makes kind of a sweet, toasty crust. And they have whole wheat flour and oatmeal to make them a bit more healthy. I am also excited to share my new discovery. Powdered buttermilk! I don’t know…

Farm Cake (Texas Sheet Cake)
This cake brings back so many memories for me. It is originally called Texas Sheet Cake, but to me it is called Farm Cake. My Grandma Jo and Grandpa Dave own some land in the mountains that we would always visit to camp or cook dinner over the fire pit. My grandma would always bring…
