Are you ever looking for a NEW recipe for breakfast? I ALWAYS am. I want something without too much sugar or too many carbs. Sometimes it is hard to find a balance, isn’t it?
Filled with apples, bananas, raw oats, pecans and shredded coconut, this is a great way to start your day.
Since then, it is on my Christmas baking list.
Having my recipe for Gluten Free Fat Free Banana Muffins is one of our favorite breakfast treats. It’s healthy, fresh, gluten free and fat free. I like using applesauce, instead of butter as a leavening. It adds moisture and a great texture.
Are you always feeling rushed Christmas morning to make breakfast? These 60 Minute Cinnamon Rolls are the answer!! They can be ready by the time the presents are unwrapped!!
I start out by using my 60 Minute Yeast Roll recipe. Super easy, even if you are not a bread maker-you will be able to make these. I promise!!
After the dough rises the first time, I roll it out in a semi rectangle. (I am just not that good at making a true rectangle, like I should) “Butter” the dough with 3 Tablespoons real butter, then sprinkle 3/4 cup mixed with 1 tsp cinnamon over the butter. You may also add chopped nuts, dates, or raisins.
Roll the dough carefully, and slice into 1 1/2 inch slices. Place on a greased baking sheet. Cover with a towel and let rise for 15 minutes.
After they have risen, bake for 12-15 minutes. Let cool for 1 minute, then frost with a mixture of 2 Tablespoons melted butter, 2 cups powdered sugar, and 1 tablespoon milk (or cream)
Your family will be very impressed!! Freshly baked cinnamon rolls for Christmas breakfast with sliced oranges and a glass of egg nog?? I can’t think of anything better!!
As Christmas is fast approaching, we will be busy with our family, friends and the grand kiddos. Yay!!
