Don’t  Run Out Of the House Without Grabbing One..or Two..of These On Your Way Out The Door.

I am on the hunt for the perfect muffin! I don’t know why but I just can’t make up my mind on which recipe is better. I guess I will have to make them again so I can test them out. wink ..wink.

I am not sure when or where I acquired my little muffin pans. I have two of them and I love being able to mix up a batch of muffins, knowing that I can make a few different sizes. To be honest, I love the little size muffins. They kind of remind me of donut holes!

Plus, then the kids were younger it was a perfect sized treat, just right to hole in their little cherub fists. The last thing I want is a huge muffin the size of an orange being consumed by a toddler! Talk about mess!

Now with grands, I can’t wait to make muffins again with those little pans. Perfect size for tea-parties!

But the best part of this recipe is that you can use frozen or fresh blueberries. So basically these should be on you baking list all year around!

This is what Amy at Belly Full has to say about this yummy breakfast muffin!

These Quick and Easy One-Bowl Blueberry Muffins are light, fluffy, and loaded with blueberries. With only one bowl clean up is a breeze. Perfect for breakfast on the go!

Quick Tip: If you are using frozen blueberries, do not thaw first, just use them frozen. Dust berries with flour to prevent them sinking to bottom while baking.

Make An Impression That Is Unforgettable!

I love making desserts, but I tend to get a bit in a rut sometimes. And I absolutely LOVE lemon and blueberries together. Anytime of day!

But when it comes to cakes, I am not always very confident. Sometimes they tend to be dry and we end up having now being able to eat all of it. Sad but true. I know I have mentioned before on Urban Retro Recipes that we are more of a cookie and pie family.

While I was looking for good blueberry and lemon recipes I came across this one. It is for a poke cake. There is no danger of this drying out! It has moisture and flavor seeped into every last bite. In fact, this makes a great cake to make ahead. Perfect for when company, like your mother-in-law, comes to visit and you want everything to be cleaned up before they get there. So you have more time visiting and less time cleaning in the kitchen!

Here is what the cooks at Tip Hero have to say about their recipe.

That’s right— this one’s a poke cake! We’re filling it with pudding, topping it with a homemade blueberry sauce, and then on top of that, we’re adding a delicious cream cheese whipped frosting that just takes it to whole other level.

Quick tip: If you want to use other fruit such as peaches, nectarines, or blackberries  go right ahead! Bake your cake and eat it too :~D

When they said this was the EASIEST cake ever. I thought they were kidding. I was wrong.

When I was a kid my mom used to make a cherry pineapple dump cake. I loved it so much that when I became a mom I taught my kids how to make it so that when company was coming over they could be in charge of dessert.
Seriously, it really is just dumping ingredients into a pan, and baking. Simple enough for a 6-year-old to make. However, I would use a bit of caution when applying a squirt of whipped topping! Just saying from experience!

However,  the cherry and pineapple combo can be on the sweet side and the cost of a can of cherry pie filling is not the most budget friendly.

I haven’t made that dessert in years but seeing that you can use frozen berries? Now that makes sense and I can’t wait to try it! I also love the fact that there is cream cheese in it. I am sure it will give just the right amount of creaminess.

This is what tsp. has to say about this quick and easy dessert.

Let us break that down for you. Triple berry: blueberry, blackberry and raspberry. Cream cheese: Hello yum, thanks for the hit of sweetness. Dump cake: The easiest kind of cake you’ll ever make.

Quick Tip: Need something to take to a party or outside picnic? How adorable to divide this up into 12 small mason jars and cook? You can actually put the lids on until time to serve! Perfect for taking to a party. Individual servings can be topped with a small scoop of ice cream or whipped cream.

Move over Scones…These Easy Blueberry Lemon Drop Biscuits Take the Breakfast Spotlight.

I love blueberry lemon scones, but I have to admit it can be a bit tricky to keep them from getting a bit dry. So when I saw this recipe I was thrilled. In fact I couldn’t wait for breakfast to make these! And the result? Too good to be true!

One of the things that I think has been tough as a mom is keeping our meals interesting. I mean, sure, my teen says he could eat cold cereal ever day, but when I bake something from scratch and they are still warm out of the oven, that is pure happiness on a plate.

And really, who need to wait until breakfast? With a cold glass of milk this makes a great little snack.

This is what Mahy at Two Purple Figs has to say about this drop dead gorgeous recipe.

By all means don’t think I am anti-scones because I really love them! But those for me are a completely different experience, and it’s one closer to a muffin top. It has a nice delicate crust (closer to a scone) and an inside fluffy and tender (closer to a muffin). it’s not too sweet yet still good enough to be eaten on its’ own so glaze is completely optional here! It also happens to be so so easy.

What a win-win!

Quick Tip: Lightly dust blueberries in flour before adding to mix. It will help to keep them from sinking to bottom while baking.

Color of the day is BLUE! As in.. bring on the BLUEBERRIES!

While there may not be a substitute for sitting down to a well-balanced breakfast before heading out the door, it is nice to know that leaving hungry isn’t your families only option.

These breakfast bars are loaded fruit and oats. The flavor is something that you are not going to find wrapped up in a foil packet of commercial breakfast bars. This is the real deal people.
I have a teen who plays football, and those early morning practices can be brutal, so making sure he is fueled up and ready to hit the turf is a big job.

These loaded with fruit bars are great because I know what is in them, plus, I have the option to add some peanut butter powder to increase the protein without adding a bunch of hidden calories. Seriously, if you have never tried adding peanut butter powder to smoothies or cookies it is pretty easy to do and it located in grocery stores next to peanut butter.

If you add a hardboiled egg and a glass of milk, you are really ready to take the world by storm.

This is what Erin of Delightful E Made has to say about her recipe.

Loaded with juicy, ripe blueberries and topped with a brown sugar-oatmeal crumble these Blueberry Oatmeal Breakfast Bars are a delicious way to have breakfast on the run.  Bake up a batch and enjoy fresh out of the pan, or wrap up and store in the freezer for a grab-and-go breakfast.

Quick Tip: Bake up TWO batches and freeze one for later. Who wants to bake all the time!

Do Not Leave the Farmer’s Market Without Buying Some of These Ingredients!

I love berries. All berries. From canning strawberries fresh from the field to making blackberry cobbler with berries picked in the morning. Sometimes it is hard to decide which berry to centerpiece. Well, the wondering is over. This tart has it all. Literally.
The marscarpone filled tart is topped with whatever berries are in season.

Have you watched the Great British Baking Show? I am totally addicted, like ants on a doughnut. I just cannot get enough of the different baking challenges. Each show someone is eliminated from the baking tent after they have had a challenge, technical, and show-stopper bake. Most of the baked items I had never heard before. That being said, the one thing I have heard several times is “Mascarpone”.

When I saw this recipe I knew it was my time to try my hand at using this cream cheese type of filling. I loved that they also have a shortbread crust. I think the judges would have been very impressed at the Scrummy dessert, provided it doesn’t have a soggy bottom! (For those wondering, the word Scrummy is a blend of scrumptious and yummy! )

So bake on and see if you can create this showstopper sure to please those around you table.

Here is what Allison of Some of the Wiser had to say about this tantalizing looking tart.

The fresh berries tasted amazing all by themselves and I knew it wouldn’t take much to make a great dessert. I started with a simple, short bread crust. I didn’t want a fussy crust, just something easy that I could press into the pan. Plus, I’m a sucker for a delicious cookie crust.

Quick Tip: You can also swap out lime for lemons. It will be a different taste, but very fresh and light.
