This Oatmeal Walnut Cookie with Chocolate Chips recipe has been living on a post-it note for several months. Everyone I’ve baked them for has asked for the recipe, so I figured it’s time to share it with the public. …

Chewy Double Ginger Molasses Cookies
There’s something about the cooler fall weather that makes me crave ginger cookies. I suppose it’s the warmth from the spices or simply the association of gingerbread with the holidays. Either way, a couple of weeks ago I really wanted to make ginger molasses cookies. I looked online for recipes, chose one that sounded good, and adapted it to my liking. What resulted was my new favorite non-chocolate cookie! …
Miso Chocolate Chunk Cookies
It’s the first day of school, which means I’m doing a happy dance being extra productive today. I can’t believe I thought social distancing would help me focus more on my blog and get more things done around the house. The reality was a lot more quality time with my kids, cleaning up after them, and feeding them (seriously, how do such small humans eat so much?). I did find some time to bake a little after I saw a Feedfeed recipe for chocolate chip cookies containing white miso paste. I was intrigued because I love miso but had never tried it in a dessert. So of course I veganized and healthified the Feedfeed recipe, and the results were fantastic!…
Breakfast Cookies
Being a parent to two young kids is no joke. Mornings have become a divide-and-conquer task as we get both kids ready for school. When I have time, I prefer to make smoothies or oatmeal, but both of those must be fed to Luke (or cleaned off of the floor and walls later), which takes up my time when I need to be doing Abby’s hair or making the coffee. I needed something healthier than a handful of Cheerios that Luke could feed himself while I do other things in the kitchen. My solution was to create these delicious, nutrient-dense Breakfast cookies, and I gotta say, they’re pretty fantastic! …

Peppermint Meringue Cookies (Vegan!)
When I was in elementary school, my favorite book to check out from the library was Roald Dahl’s Revolting Recipes, which contained recipes with titles such as, “Snozzcumbers,” “Fresh Mudburgers,” and “Bruce Bogtrotter’s Cake.” My absolute favorite, however, was a dessert called “Stickjaw for Talkative Parents,” which was simply a batch of meringue cookies with a chewy caramel inside each.
Thus began my love for meringue cookies. …
Almond Oatmeal Breakfast Cookies with Chia Seed Jam
As I’ve mentioned in previous posts, breakfast is not a meal on which I enjoy spending lots of time. I’m usually too eager to start my day and will settle for a bite of Abby’s morning banana and a cup of coffee. I’m also guilty of grabbing a leftover oatmeal cookie and calling it “oatmeal” to make myself feel better, which was really the inspiration for this recipe.
There are several other breakfast cookie recipes online, but all of them I saw contain banana as a key ingredient. Banana is fine, but not everyone likes its strong flavor (my husband, for example), so I decided to make a nutritious banana-free cookie that constitutes a balanced breakfast. The result was high in fiber, protein, omega-3’s and antioxidants, and so delicious!…
