Grand Marnier Butter
Warm breakfast breads are already delicious, but they can be made a special occasion with this Grand Marnier Butter. Using the signature liquor, the butter takes on the flavors of bitter orange, balanced by cognac notes of hazelnuts and toffee. Adding a little sugar cuts the edge of the bitter, and the fresh orange juice…
Cherry Cream Cheese Danish
Every summer when we head north to be with family, my husband and I both try to claim to be from the Cherry Capital. I say it is Michigan, and he insists it is Wisconsin. While the dispute is ongoing, we do agree that both places grow delicious cherries. Whether you like them freshly picked,…

Silver Platter NB&J
I’m almost embarrassed to post this as an actual “recipe” but it’s just so darn delicious, I had to share it. We all know how to make a classic PB&J sandwich. Being probably the most classic meal that every kid & parent default to for lunch, it’s probably not what you think of when you…
Scrambled Eggs with Whipped Feta
Brunch in our house often consists of waffles, but sometimes we like to create a savory main dish. But of course we add a sweet side (almond kringle, anyone?!). The star of this particular brunch though is the slow roasted tomatoes and the herby olive oil that is then whipped with feta cheese. OMG. The…
Crispy Roasted Smashed Potatoes
I’ve been making these potatoes for so many years, I cannot remember if I found it in a recipe book, if it was inspired by a friend, or created based on something I ate out at a restaurant. It’s possible it’s a combo of all the above! I do know that on our honeymoon in…
Blueberry Lemon Curd Pastries
One downside of not dining out during a pandemic is no gourmet brunch. You know, the ones where you order the most amazing main dish, but then it comes with not only bottomless mimosas, but a basket of homemade pastries. I usually don’t crave these sweet treats, but when you haven’t had one in over…
Breakfast Spinach Pastry Cups
Whether you make this dish from last night’s leftovers, or make it all at once, this fried egg spinach puff pastry is one to remember.

Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Pie Breakfast Rolls
Yup, I sure did. I managed to make dessert breakfast. And wow is it tasty. While autumn has not quite set-in down here sunny Florida (82 degrees is cool, right?), my tastebuds and clothing attire are begging to differ. I woke up with a craving for pumpkin pie. After going through my kitchen, I had…
