Is anyone else craving fall as much as I am?
Fall food is the best! I love this time of year when apples come into season and flavors are all about warmth and earthy, spicy, goodness. Fall food is all about comfort and for me, oatmeal cake is about as comforting as it gets.
Fall is right around the corner with its cooler temps, pumpkin spice, and beautiful foliage. But I’m just not quite ready to give up on summer with its warm breezes, rushing waters, and easy desserts yet.
I found my inspiration for the recipe I’m going to share with you today here while perusing Pinterest one day for ways to use up all the extra graham crackers I had from making smores. It has instantly become a big hit among co-workers, friends, and family! My favorite thing about this recipe is how easy it is to change it up. If you don’t like pineapple – just simply don’t add them, or put in more bananas.
Ever since I visited Italy almost six years ago now, I have been in love (and obsessed) with hazelnut spreads. My husband loves cookies and could probably eat chocolate chip ones every day for the rest of his life. But I get a little bored with those and I decided I wanted to try to use a delicious hazelnut spread from Nocciolata for a cookie recipe.
I absolutely love granola! It’s one of my favorite breakfast-snack hybrids.
It’s crunchy, sweet, and delicious.
However, it’s one of those sneaky little devils that is presumed to be really healthy but it’s typically packed with calories, sugar, and fat.
Most store-bought granola has the same nutritional value as a cookie… I don’t know about you, but for the same nutritional value, I’d much rather eat a cookie than granola.
The best way to remedy that problem is to make your own granola, and fortunately, it’s surprisingly easy.
