Easy Overnight Oats

By Kleinworth & Co Leave a Comment

These super Easy Overnight Oats are a great make-ahead breakfast with just 5 ingredients and only 5 minutes of prep. So delicious too!

Who loves easy recipes? How about ones that you can prep in just 5 minutes? I’m all in for that. The days are just so busy and anything we can do to save time is a huge bonus.

What I love about this recipe is that I can spend 5 minutes the night before getting this prepped and the kids have a whole week of breakfasts waiting for them in the fridge. Nothing complicated and they can even do it themselves.

Easy Overnight Oats

The bonus is that these basic overnight oats are so versatile. This recipe here is to get you started. But you can change them up to add pretty much anything you like to have with breakfast.

Many refrigerator oatmeal recipes call for yogurt. But for this, you can get started without it. If you have it on hand, you can add it as a topping – but it isn’t required for this recipe to work.

I love that because I struggle with keeping yogurt on hand. The kids either go through it so fast that I’m buying it in bulk OR then they decide after I have it stockpiled that they aren’t going to eat it anymore and it all goes bad before I realize they have moved on to something else.

Here are some commonly asked questions

What are overnight oats?

Basically, overnight oats are oatmeal that has been soaked in liquid over a period of time (usually overnight) to soften them to an edible state. This is done in place of cooking the oats and serving them hot.

Often referred to as refrigerator oatmeal, this type of preparation keeps the oats from taking on a gummy texture. This recipe is intended to be served cold and with added toppings.

Can I use another type of oat for this recipe?

This is the only ingredient that can’t be altered. You need to use only old-fashioned oats for this recipe to work. The consistency of quick oats or instant oats isn’t right and you will end up with something not so great when working with those types.

So with those the oats get too soggy – if you were to try it with steel-cut oats, the opposite would be true. They wouldn’t soften enough to make them enjoyable.

How long do overnight oats take?

Well, the oats will start to thicken and soak up that liquid in about 2 hours. But I recommend letting them soak for at least 4 hours for the best texture and consistency. However, in my experience, it is easier to just prep them the night before and let them sit until I’m ready for them the next morning.

I’m not the most patient person, so prepping them when I don’t have plans to eat them right away works best for me. Otherwise, I’m more likely to not wait the whole time and then end up with a less than perfect experience.

Overnight Oats TIPS

  • Sweetners such as honey or agave nectar can be added.
  • Use whatever type of milk you regularly use – any variety will work.
  • Store in individual mason jars for easy “grab-n-go” breakfasts.
  • Try non-breakable containers when sending them off with younger kids.
  • Try warming them up in the microwave if you want something a bit more cozy for breakfast.
  • Change the consistency based on your preference by either increasing or decreasing the amount of milk added to the oats when preparing. You can also add a splash when serving to thin them out if needed.

How long to overnight oats last?

You can prepare these on Sunday night and they will keep for up to 5 days in advance. So you will have almost a whole week without having to worry about it. I typically make some on Sunday and then again on Thursday so we have more for the weekend.

Can I use frozen fruit?

You bet! That is the best part. You can add your frozen fruits when you are doing the prep. They will thaw as they sit in the refrigerator – which makes prep even faster when it comes time to serve.

overnight oats recipe

breakfast cold oats

Will the oats expand as they soak?

Yes – make sure to leave some space at the top of the jar because they will expand as they soak up the liquid. Plus you will want a bit of space to add your toppings once you are ready to serve. I typically use a large jar and leave it only 60% full so I have plenty of room.

Can this recipe be doubled?

Yes! This recipe doubles well. What I like to do sometimes is double or triple the recipe – make it in a large bowl and then people can portion out what they want for the morning – when we don’t need them to be “grab-n-go” in individual jars.

Are the soaked oats easier to digest?

Many people have trouble digesting oats because they have some of the highest levels of phytic acid compared to other grains. Fortunately, soaking the oats does make them easier to digest – not quite as easy as if you fermented them, but still easier, nonetheless.

Can refrigerator oats be made with water?

Yes – you can make the oats with water – they just won’t be as creamy or rich. But if you are low on milk – you don’t have the abandon the entire recipe.

ingredients for Overnight Oats

What you need to make the BEST Overnight Oatmeal

  • rolled old fashioned oats
  • milk – dairy or non-dairy
  • ground cinnamon
  • vanilla extract
  • Toppings – all optional: fresh berries, yogurt, honey, chocolate chips, peanut butter

What do overnight oats taste like?

Well, if all you have ever had is oatmeal served hot – they won’t be quite the same. The consistency of cold oats is creamier and thicker – with a different overall texture. The cold opens you up to more flavor options in my opinion – because, to me, there are certain things that don’t go well with hot oatmeal – such as yogurt. We love these oats and apparently, the world must love them too – because they are SO POPULAR!

Overnight Oat Flavor Ideas

The possibilities are endless when it comes to these oats – but here are some of our favorite flavor combos.

  • Nutella + Banana
  • Fresh Peaches + Cream
  • Apples + Cinnamon or Nutmeg
  • Peanut Butter + Mini Chocolate Chips
  • Fresh Blueberries + Lemon Zest
  • Peanut Butter + Jam

Cinnamon Honey Butter

By Kleinworth & Co 9 Comments

This recipe for Cinnamon Honey Butter is sweet and creamy with the perfect amount of cinnamon and even better than the Texas Roadhouse version. Soft and spreadable and ready in 5 minutes! SO GOOD!

Are you ready to kick off this weekend with a bang? I am definitely ready to try to fit in little pockets of time out of the office because I soooooo need it.

We mixed up this Cinnamon Honey Butter because we super love the stuff when we visit Roadhouse. But we found that we love it mixed into a little oatmeal too – it was delicious.

Be sure to try our delicious Apple Butter Bread!

Cinnamon Honey Butter

I have mentioned before that my son is absolutely nuts for cinnamon. So when I promised him I would make some of this cinnamon honey butter for him to add to breakfasts & our dinner rolls.

The one special request he gave me was that he wanted it to have a bolder cinnamon flavor than the traditional recipes we see floating around. I can do that – for sure. Just enough, not too much. He was definitely happy with the result & is using it on everything.

Texas Roadhouse Cinnamon Butter

the best honey butter

If you really like cinnamon- this is the spread for you. It’s just a hint of honey & packed full of that wonderful cinnamon flavor. No need to butter your toast & then top it with a cinnamon/sugar mixture.

This has it all right in there. Added to hot toast right out of the toaster – it melts to a gooey cinnamon glaze. Mmmmmmmm – perfect for my weekend breakfast – that’s for sure.

Texas Roadhouse Butter

Here are some commonly asked questions

How to soften the butter to room temperature?

First

There are a couple of ways to do this. The first being that you can take the butter (& any other ingredients that need to be at room temperature) out, leave it on the counter for about 30 minutes while you prep for baking.

I usually start with all my chilled ingredients and pull everything I need out onto the counter before getting started – so I know for sure I have everything before I’m mid-way through I realize I’m out of something.

But sometimes it’s winter and that isn’t enough time to get the ingredients warmed up – OR – I’m just not that organized to plan ahead. It happens. So I have another couple of tricks.

Second

I place the butter in the microwave – wrapped in the paper. (don’t do this if it is wrapped in foil) Then I microwave for 2 seconds – flip – go another 2 seconds – flip again – and continue for 2 seconds on each side.

This is usually enough to get it perfect – sometimes stopping before if it feels soft enough. Take care when doing this method – overly softened butter from the microwave WILL ALTER the end result of the recipe. Don’t over-do it.

Third

My third method is to place the wrapped butter sticks in a zip-top bag and place it in a bowl of warm water. I do this with the eggs too. If the water isn’t too hot it can be THE PERFECT way to get “room-temperature” ingredients.

Texas Roadhouse Butter Recipe

Should I use salted or unsalted butter?

This is really a personal preference. If you are happy with just a little salt to cut the sweetness, then use salted butter.

I usually use whatever I have on hand & I really don’t pay too close attention to what butter I have. But I typically keep salted butter on hand & I love that little bit of extra salt with the sweet in this recipe.

These days with groceries being more difficult to find – I basically get whatever the store has available at the time and make it work.

How long does honey butter last?

For this butter – if you keep it in the fridge it will last up to 1 month. If you like to leave your butter at room temperature overnight, it will last 1-2 days at most. You can use a butter crock so it stays spreadable and that will extend the life by several more days.

How to make Texas Roadhouse Butter

  1. Mix all of the ingredients together in a large bowl until well blended. You can use either a large rubber spatula, a hand mixer or a stand mixer for this.
  2. Place the butter on parchment paper, cover and roll into a log.
  3. Twist the ends of the parchment paper.
  4. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours before serving.

When it comes to breakfast we rarely have time for anything fancy these days and when I say fancy, I mean something that isn’t grab-n-go. So when I can make something like this breakfast casserole, the whole family is elated.

What I love about this breakfast is that while it isn’t a 30-minute or less recipe, it’s pretty simple to make and you can even make it the night before and bake in the morning, which is great for our schedule.

Applesauce Muffin Recipe

By Kleinworth & Co Leave a Comment

This super easy Applesauce Muffin Recipe is made from scratch with ground cinnamon, allspice, and raisins. They’re a great start to the day.

When it comes to breakfast around here, we don’t do a full spread with bacon and eggs and all the other stuff very often. The same goes for things like french toast and pancakes. Those are reserved for when we have a bit more time – which seems few and far between these days.

But what we really love to have on hand almost all of the time is muffins. They are quick and easy to make and they make breakfast “grab-n-go” which is always nice. Anything that keeps the day running at a smooth and even pace is a plus in my book. This is why we love these applesauce muffins.

Applesauce Muffins

We love these because not only are they easy but they are delicious too. They are so simple, in fact, that I leave it up to the kids to make them whenever we run out.

That being said, they are all young adults now – but they have been making these for years and it has not only kept me out of the kitchen but taught them a lot about being in the kitchen. Skills for later in life are always good to have in your back pocket. Check out these muffins – I know you’ll love them too.

muffin recipe breakfast - applesauce

Here are some commonly asked questions

Can these muffins be frozen?

You bet! These muffins freeze quite well. I recommend waiting until they have completely cooled. Then wrap them individually with plastic wrap. Then place them in a zip-top bag and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight before serving again.

How do I properly measure the flour?

The official way is to spoon the flour into the measuring cup & level off. This makes sure the flour isn’t packed tightly into your measuring cup, adding more than you need, as that will make your recipe too dry.

With some recipes – if you fluff your flour with a spoon, then gently scoop the flour into the measuring cup, taking care to not pack the flour – that can work for this recipe.

There are a couple of ways to do this. The first being that you can take the butter (& any other ingredients that need to be at room temperature) out, leave it on the counter for about 30 minutes while you prep for baking.

Can I use a vanilla substitute instead of vanilla extract?

Yes.  Vanilla essence does not provide quite the same flavor as regular vanilla extract.  However, it is a good alternative.

Why do the ingredients need to be at room temperature?

Room temperature ingredients help to ensure that everything blends together perfectly. You don’t want any pockets of unblended butter. You want everything evenly disbursed for the perfect muffin texture.

There’s really no limit to what you can serve alongside these muffins – but here is a list of our most-served recipes that we pair with them.

Air Fryer Peach Fritters

By Kleinworth & Co 1 Comment

Air Fryer Peach Fritters made with homemade dough are the perfect breakfast to make with all those delicious summer peaches. Crazy easy to make and ready in just 20 minutes.

There’s one thing that everyone must have when we hit the donut shop – fritters! Doesn’t matter what flavor, they all go nuts for them.

But I never want to go through all the hassle and mess of making the dough and frying them – with all that oil and then the cleanup. No thank you.

So I decided I’d give them a go in the air fryer and they turned out great. It’s clean, it’s easy, and oh so delicious.

What I love about this recipe is that the batter comes together quickly and it isn’t complicated. Then you just drop portions of it into the air fryer and let them cook.

While I love my traditional apple fritter recipe – this is so much easier and I can’t wait to make this recipe again with all our apples once we pick them from the orchard. So good!

Here are some commonly asked questions

Can this recipe be made with other types of fruit?

You bet! If you want to make this with other stone fruit like nectarines or apricots that would be delicious too. You can also make these fritters with apples, pears, blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, and our favorite, huckleberries.

What are the benefits of air frying?

Healthier

It’s no secret that fried foods are more fattening – but did you know that there are 9 calories in every gram of fat? With air frying, we can reduce the fat by removing most of the oils usually needed to create crunchy foods. This helps to drastically reduce fat intake and calories.

Convenience

I love being able to cook with my air fryer and eliminate the need for large baking sheets and lots of pots and pans. Most of my air fryer recipes can be made with just a mixing bowl or two or a small saucepan in addition to my air fryer.

Energy Efficient

Someone said to me once, “why make this in the air fryer if you can do it the conventional way in the same amount of time?” Well, air frying helps eliminate the need for a conventional oven.

Not only can you keep your home cooler in the summer by not using the oven, but you are saving money with reduced energy consumption costs as well.

Time Saver

I don’t know about you, but if I can avoid turning on the oven and having to wait 20 minutes for it to preheat, I’m happy about that. Most air fryer recipes either don’t require that you preheat the fryer – or the preheat time is 5 minutes or less. That is a huge time saver over using the oven.

Take it on the go

I love that the air fryer is compact and easy to take along on trips. We pack ours in our RV and find that air fryer cooking while camping is so much easier than trying to deep fry foods on a small RV stove or camping burner.

How Air Frying Works

While air fryers are relatively new to the market, the technology isn’t really a new concept. They basically work like tiny convection ovens that you can use on your countertop.

Similar to a convection oven, it circulates the hot air within the cooking area using a high-powered fan. This helps evenly distribute the heat around the food which not only creates more evenly cooked food but also reduced cooking times.

By circulating the hot air, which contains the fine oil droplets from adding a light mist layer before cooking, and allows you to remove the need for submerging our foods in heavy oils to create the deliciously crunchy foods we all love.

How to make Air Fryer Peach Fritters

  1. Line the air fryer basket with parchment paper and set it aside.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and cinnamon.
  3. Add in the milk, egg, and melted butter and stir to combine– mix just until no large lumps of flour remain.
  4. Next, fold in the peaches.
  5. Drop two tablespoon-sized fritters onto the parchment paper and cook them at 365 for 8-10 minutes, or until they are gold brown on the outside.
  6. Transfer to a cooling rack and repeat until all the batter is used.
  7. Enjoy while warm and store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days.

Ingredients for Air Fried Peach Fritters

  • all-purpose flour
  • granulated sugar
  • baking powder
  • ground cinnamon
  • milk
  • large egg
  • butter – melted
  • peach – diced
  • Spray canola oil – opt

Air Frying Doneness Tip

Every air fryer is a bit different and they all cook at different rates – so in general, all cooking times are approximate based on the pan and temperature.

You can always cook the recipe longer if needed and reduce the heat a bit. If needed, you can tent the top if it is browning too much.

air fryer breakfast fritters

What is the best way to store leftover fritters?

In our experience, these are best when stored in a paper bag at room temperature. If you put them in an airtight container they tend to sweat and then they get soggy.

They can be stored in the fridge, but then you have to reheat them before eating and they are never quite as good when you do that.

How to prevent sticking in the air fryer

Sticking can often happen when using an air fryer. I understand that most would think to add non-stick spray to the basket to prevent this. I strongly encourage you to not do that.

Non-stick spray leaves a coating that won’t come off, even when washed. Over time – this will build up and cause smoking when you use our air fryer.

I also do not recommend putting down a sheet of foil. The idea behind air frying is to allow the air to circulate around the food.

This is why the basket or tray has holes in it. If you put foil down – this prevents the air from reaching all of the areas it needs to in order for it to cook properly.

Instead – I recommend spraying the basket with olive oil using this spray bottle. You can line the air fryer with perforated parchment paper.

Or you can use one of these really great silicone liners that still allow for airflow but are reusable and easily cleanable.

I have a bake option and other special features on my air fryer, is that the setting? Or do you put it on “air fry” setting?

All of my recipes were created with an air fryer that had only a temperature & timer setting – since not all air fryers have all the additional settings.

You can use the bake setting when making recipes that you would traditionally bake – but if possible, please just set the temperature & time for this recipe.

how to make Air Fryer Peach Fritters

What air fryer do you use?

We actually have 3 air fryers. I have a smaller one from Phillips that we started with. I have since given that to my son since he’s only cooking for 1.

But the more I used the air fryer I realized I really wanted a digital screen. It wasn’t any more expensive, in fact- our XL air fryer from GoWISE was less expensive than the Phillips and I love its ease & extra functions.

Plus it comes with a lot of the extra accessories I like to use when cooking with my fryer.

But I when I started working on my second air fryer book, I wanted to change things up. I picked up this LARGE air fryer that has been wonderful. It has Touch Screen Presets plus it is XL Family Size, which is great!

Rhubarb Muffins Recipe

By Kleinworth & Co Leave a Comment

Tart pieces of rhubarb mixed into the tender crumb of this streusel-topped cake, make this the best Rhubarb Muffins Recipe EVER!

Growing up I remember my grandmother tending to the rhubarb in her garden. It seemed like she had just loads of it each spring.

So it is no surprise that she baked a lot of different recipes with her bounty. These rhubarb streusel muffins were a favorite from her recipe box. I know you’ll love them.

Rhubarb Muffins Recipe

Perfectly moist muffins with the most scrumptious streusel topping are the perfect compliment to the tart pieces of rhubarb scattered throughout.

These really are just the right breakfast to serve in the spring. Great for mother’s day or to take along on a Sunday outing to enjoy the warmer weather.

Here are some commonly asked questions

What is rhubarb?

Rhubarb is a tart vegetable with a stalk and leaves, much like celery. While it is considered a vegetable, it is more often used as a fruit because it is used in bake goods such as pies, cakes, cookies and these muffins.

What is the best way to store leftover rhubarb muffins?

These muffins will keep well for up to 2 days in an airtight container at room temperature. If you’d like to keep them longer, they can be refrigerated for up to 7 days.

Can rhubarb muffins be frozen?

Yes, I do it often. Place any leftover muffins in an airtight container or ziptop bag and freeze for up to 3 months. Let thaw in the fridge overnight before serving again.

What does rhubarb taste like?

Rhubarb is quite tart, similar to a green apple. It has a fibrous texture like celery and tends to be incredibly juicy.

Spring Breakfast Favorites

This time of year there are so many opportunities to enjoy a delicious breakfast together as a family. Here are some of our favorites we make again and again.

Can this recipe be doubled?

You can double this recipe. Just bake the muffin tins side-by-side. The batter can be made all in one larger bowl.

rhubarb recipes

Rhubarb Streusel Muffins

Can I use frozen rhubarb?

Yes, you can use frozen rhubarb in this recipe. Just be sure to thaw it completely first and drain well.

HOW DO YOU MAKE RHUBARB MUFFINS?

For the Muffins

  1. Preheat the oven to 350F and grease 12 standard muffin tins.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and baking soda.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg, yogurt, vegetable oil, buttermilk, and vanilla.
  4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry and mix them together, just until combined.
  5. Gently fold the rhubarb into the batter, making sure not to overmix.
  6. Fill each of the muffins until they are ⅔ full and set aside while making the topping.

For the Topping

  1. Combine all of the ingredients in a food processor and pulse until the butter is incorporated and the mixture has the consistency of wet sand.
  2. Top each of the muffins with 1 tbsp of streusel.
  3. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean– about 15-18 minutes.
  4. Remove the muffins from the oven and enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Can I use a gluten-free flour?

I’m not sure just yet. I have been meaning to give this a try but haven’t had a chance. If you do try this, I would recommend using a 1:1 flour like this one as I don’t believe it would require additional ingredients that are typically called for when trying to make baked recipes in a gluten-free version. Please come back & tell me how it turned out.

how to make Rhubarb Muffins

Cutting the rhubarb for muffins

  • Only the stalks are edible. Very important to note – the leaves are toxic, so be sure to trim off the bottoms of the stalk and discard all of the leaves prior to use.
  • Then chop the stalks into small pieces – I like to keep them small so that the tart flavor balances with the sweetness of the muffin – instead of overpowering it.

Ingredients for Rhubarb Muffins Recipe

  • all-purpose flour
  • baking powder
  • baking soda
  • granulated sugar
  • egg
  • greek yogurt
  • vegetable oil
  • buttermilk
  • pure vanilla extract
  • rhubarb – chopped

For the Streusel Topping

  • brown sugar
  • all-purpose flour
  • butter cubed

How do I properly measure the flour?

The official way is to spoon the flour into the measuring cup & level off. This makes sure the flour isn’t packed tightly into your measuring cup, adding more than you need, as that will make your recipe too dry.

However – if you fluff your flour with a spoon, then gently scoop the flour into the measuring cup, taking care to not pack the flour – that should work for this recipe.

Optional add-ins

  • nuts
  • sliced strawberries
  • oats
  • coconut
  • chopped cherries

Should I use light or dark brown sugar?

Since I make my own brown sugar, I use light brown sugar for almost all of my recipes. But light or dark brown sugar will work in this recipe.

Easy Fruit Salad

By Kleinworth & Co 2 Comments

Easy Fruit Salad is a healthy and delicious breakfast or great when served as a side dish at a potluck, backyard BBQ, or pool party. So good!

Are you excited about the warmer weather? Living up here in North Idaho, we really cherish the warmer weather and really look forward to when fresh fruit becomes more available in the stores.

I get particularly excited because the garden is bursting with produce too and I’m always looking for great ways to use it all. This easy fruit salad is the perfect recipe for that!

This fruit salad would be great when used in our Yogurt Parfait Cups too!

Easy Fruit Salad

What I really love about this recipe is not only is it easily adaptable, making it great for mixing up new and different flavor combos. But this is so delicious when I just want something light for breakfast.

I don’t have to reserve this for just a side dish. It is really great at any time of day. You can’t go wrong with that.

Here are some commonly asked questions

Can I use frozen fruit?

Theoretically, yes. But because frozen fruit tends to get soggy as it thaws, I don’t recommend it. You can do it, but it just won’t give you the best possible result.

Can this recipe be doubled?

You can, and we do it often. It might take a bit longer to get everything chopped and diced, but if you are serving a crowd, I definitely recommend making a double batch.

dressing for fruit salad

What is the best way to store leftover fruit salad?

Store in an airtight container and keep it refrigerated between serving. Please use within 5 days.

Can I use something other than lime juice?

You bet! If you want to swap out the lime juice with either lemon juice, orange juice or even pineapple juice – those will all work great too.

recipe of fruit salad

healthy fruit recipe

How to keep fresh?

  • Fortunately, the citrus in the dressing keeps the fruit from browning for several days. So as long as you keep it refrigerated, it should stay fresh.
  • If you decide to add bananas, please do so when serving as they will brown faster than everything else.
  • If you can’t get through all of the salad, I recommend freezing to use for making smoothies or “nice-cream” later on.

Can this be made with a creamy dressing?

Yes – you can make this with a creamy dressing. Just mix the following together and then mix into the fruit.

  • 2 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar

Fruit Salad Recipe Tips

  • Taste and Adjust – this recipe is quite versatile, leave out fruits you can’t find in season or don’t like and swap them out with ones you love.
  • Change it up – if there’s something unique you come across in the store, feel free to add that in there too.
  • Buy melons and kiwi in advance since those tend to need a little extra time to ripen before enjoying.
  • Shop in season – if there are a few different fruits on the list that aren’t quite in season, it’s okay to leave those out and find something else.

Fruit Salad Swaps

I love to change it up depending on what I have in the garden or what I’m craving at the time. Here are some of my favorite swaps for this recipe to give it different textures, flavors or even turn it into a dessert.

  • bananas
  • huckleberries
  • peaches
  • nectarines
  • oranges
  • can of crushed pineapple
  • mini-marshmallows

  4. Drizzle the honey mixture over the fruit and toss gently.
  5. Store in the refrigerator until chilled.
  6. Store the leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

What can I use instead of honey?

My personal preference is honey, raw honey to be specific. But you can swap it out with pure maple syrup or even agave or monk fruit syrup if you like.

Can I cut fruit the night before?

For the most part, yes you can prep and cut the night before. The only ingredient (that isn’t in this recipe, but you might want to add) that you would want to add at the time of serving would be bananas. Since those tend to go brown quite quickly, I wouldn’t add those ahead of time. Everything I have listed here will be just fine if you prep before hand.

What should I serve with a fruit salad?

This fruit salad is so versatile and goes with so many things. But here are some of our favorite main dish recipes that we pair this fruit salad with.

How much fruit salad to serve per person?

Typically when serving a salad like this, the rule is to prepare at least 1 cup per person you are expecting to serve. I like to er on the side of having too much rather than running out.

Because we also have many who come with big appetites or like to have seconds, I tend to plan for at least 50% more than that when putting a recipe like this together.

Bakery-Style Chocolate Chip Muffins

By Kleinworth & Co 1 Comment

JUMBO Bakery-Style Chocolate Chip Muffins are deliciously moist, packed with chocolate chips, and the perfect way to start the day!

There’s something about visiting the bakery and picking up a pack of muffins. I love having one of those amazing giant muffins with my coffee on the weekends.

But I don’t always have a chance to get to the store or place a delivery order. So, fortunately, I can make my own bakery-style chocolate chip muffins easily at home. Check these out!

Don’t miss our Basic Muffin Recipe for making all your favorite flavors!

JUMBO Bakery-Style Chocolate Chip Muffins

My friends – these giant muffins are INCREDIBLE! When I say giant – I truly meant it! They are nearly the size of a grapefruit.

Definitely more than enough to fill you up for breakfast- that’s for sure. When I first made these I almost doubled the recipe. But once I realized that these are “shareable-size” I was happy I only made 6.

These are perfect to make on a Friday afternoon and you have enough for breakfast throughout the whole weekend.

bakery style muffins

breakfast chocolate chip muffins

Here are some commonly asked questions

What is the best way to store leftover chocolate chip muffins?

These muffins will keep well for up to 5 days at room temperature when placed in an airtight container or ziptop bag. You can refrigerate them to give them another couple of days if needed. I recommend refrigeration if you live in a hot or humid climate.

Can these muffins be frozen?

You bet! These muffins freeze quite well. I recommend waiting until they have completely cooled. Then wrap them individually with plastic wrap. Then place them in a zip-top bag and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight before serving again.

How to soften the butter to room temperature?

First

There are a couple of ways to do this. The first being that you can take the butter (& any other ingredients that need to be at room temperature) out, leave it on the counter for about 30 minutes while you prep for baking.

I usually start with all my chilled ingredients and pull everything I need out onto the counter before getting started – so I know for sure I have everything before I’m mid-way through I realize I’m out of something.

But sometimes it’s winter and that isn’t enough time to get the ingredients warmed up – OR – I’m just not that organized to plan ahead. It happens. So I have another couple of tricks.

Second

I place the butter in the microwave – wrapped in the paper. (don’t do this if it is wrapped in foil) Then I microwave for 2 seconds – flip – go another 2 seconds – flip again – and continue for 2 seconds on each side.

This is usually enough to get it perfect – sometimes stopping before if it feels soft enough. Take care when doing this method – overly softened butter from the microwave WILL ALTER the end result of the recipe. Don’t over-do it.

Third

My third method is to place the wrapped butter sticks in a zip-top bag and place it in a bowl of warm water. I do this with the eggs too. If the water isn’t too hot it can be THE PERFECT way to get “room-temperature” ingredients.

Can fat-free yogurt be used in this recipe?

For these muffins, you will want the full or at least some fat in the dairy you are adding. That fat is needed for the muffins to have the right texture and rise when done. You can use full fat, or low fat sour cream, or yogurt but please do not use fat free.

easy chocolate chip muffins

homemade Bakery-Style Chocolate Chip Muffins

Why do the ingredients need to be at room temperature?

Room temperature ingredients help to ensure that everything blends together perfectly. You don’t want any pockets of unblended butter. You want everything evenly disbursed for the perfect muffin texture.

What other recipes can be made with chocolate chips?

We love chocolate chips in this house – so we definitely have a lot of recommendations on what to make using chocolate chips. Here is a small list of our favorites.

HOW DO YOU MAKE JUMBO BAKERY-STYLE CHOCOLATE CHIP MUFFINS?

  1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
  2. Liberally grease a jumbo muffin tin (6-count) with shortening or baker’s release or line with liners. Set aside.
  3. Mix the sugar, eggs, melted butter, and oil until combined.
  4. Then mix in the milk, yogurt, and vanilla until the mixture is a pale yellow color.
  5. Add the flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda and mix until combined using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon. The batter will be thick, but please avoid over-mixing.
  6. Gently fold in both types of chocolate chips.
  7. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared muffin cups, filling to the top.
  8. Add a couple more chocolate chips to the tops of each filled muffin cup followed by a sprinkle of coarse sugar.
  9. Bake at 425 for 5 minutes – THEN REDUCE THE HEAT TO 350 DEGREES (leaving the pan in the oven) and continue to bake for another 25-30 minutes or until the muffins are light golden brown and the tops spring back when lightly pressed on. (you can also do the toothpick test)
  10. Cool for at least 15 minutes in the pan before removing.
  11. Serve warm or let cool to room temperature before placing in an airtight container for storage.

how to make JUMBO Bakery-Style Chocolate Chip Muffins

Ingredients for Bakery-Style Chocolate Chip Muffins

  • granulated sugar
  • eggs
  • butter
  • oil – vegetable, canola, or coconut
  • milk
  • vanilla yogurt or sour cream
  • vanilla extract
  • all-purpose flour
  • baking powder
  • table salt
  • baking soda
  • regular semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • mini chocolate chips
  • coarse raw sugar

Can these be made into different size muffins?

Yes, this recipe is incredibly versatile. That’s why I love it so much.

You can use this batter to make 12 standard-size muffins. Bake at 425 degrees for the first 5 minutes and then at 350 degrees for another 15 minutes. You’ll probably get 14-15 standard-size muffins, so be sure to have 2 pans ready.

This batter can also be made into mini muffins. The batter yields approx 40 muffins. Bake them at 350 degrees for 11-13 minutes. When making mini muffins, please don’t use the high temp at the beginning of the baking process.

chocolate chip muffin recipe

Bakery-Style Muffins

What is bakers release?

Bakers release is a combination of oil, flour, and shortening that makes releasing cakes and other baked goods almost effortless.

To make Bakers Release – it is as simple as 1,1 & 1. 

  • equal parts of all-purpose flour, shortening, and cooking oil – I like to do 1 cup of each.

Mix the ingredients together – whisking well. Store in an airtight container in the pantry or refrigerator. When ready to use, dip a pastry brush into the mixture and spread it over the cake pan.

How do I properly measure the flour?

The official way is to spoon the flour into the measuring cup & level off. This makes sure the flour isn’t packed tightly into your measuring cup, adding more than you need, as that will make your recipe too dry.

With some recipes – if you fluff your flour with a spoon, then gently scoop the flour into the measuring cup, taking care to not pack the flour – that can work. HOWEVER- FOR THIS RECIPE – PLEASE USE THE SPOON AND LEVEL METHOD.

JUMBO Bakery-Style Chocolate Chip Muffins Recipe

Should I use salted or unsalted butter?

This is really a personal preference. If you are happy with just a little salt to cut the sweetness, then use salted butter.

I usually use whatever I have on hand & I really don’t pay too close attention to what butter I have. But I typically keep salted butter on hand & I love that little bit of extra salt with the sweet in this recipe.

These days with groceries being more difficult to find – I basically get whatever the store has available at the time and make it work.

Can I use a vanilla substitute instead of vanilla extract?

Yes.  Vanilla essence does not provide quite the same flavor as regular vanilla extract.  However, it is a good alternative.

Brioche French Toast

By Kleinworth & Co Leave a Comment

Rich and tender brioche bread, thickly sliced and coated in a sweet cinnamon egg custard makes this Brioche French Toast the perfect breakfast. Topped with fresh fruit and maple syrup, it’s delish!

Do you love french toast? Growing up it was always my favorite thing to order when we dined out for breakfast. So when we are able to make it at home, it still has that special feeling to it.

I suppose that is why we sort of reserve it for special occasions. But when that is the case, you don’t want to use any old bread. Making it with a thick and tender brioche bread makes it just like dining out. So good!

Brioche French Toast

I love this recipe because I can get that restaurant flavor in the comfort of my own home for a fraction of the price. This one is so thick, eggy and delicious.

It is perfect for special occasions like a birthday breakfast or for Mother’s Day. Sometimes if I’m really ambitious, we will make it for the bigger holidays like Christmas or Easter morning too.

Everyone can load it up with their favorite toppings, fruit, chocolate chips, syrup and really customize it to their liking. This is such a special breakfast and so easy to make too.

brioche french toast recipe

Thick French Toast

Here are some commonly asked questions

What is brioche?

Brioche bread is originally from France and is known for its high egg and butter content and a rich and tender crumb. This gives it a light and fluffy texture and a dark and flaky crust.

Is brioche sweet?

With the high butter and egg ratio along with the addition of sugar and sometimes brandy, brioche bread does have a sweetness to it, but not too much. That is part of what makes it perfect for making french toast.

Why use stale bread for french toast?

Basically, bread that isn’t perfectly fresh is best. So it needs to be at least a day old because it soaks up the egg mixture better than fresh bread. Anything you pick up at the store will definitely work fine – because even with the preservatives, it has been there for probably more than a day before you buy it. Unless, of course, it came from the bakery and was freshly made that day.

Can this be made with regular sandwich bread?

If you can’t find brioche bread, you can use the egg mixture using regular sandwich bread. You can even cut a loaf of french bread instead. It just won’t be quite the same as the brioche, which is the most like restaurant-style.

breakfast french toast

French Toast with fruit

What is the difference between using brioche and regular french toast?

Basically, brioche french toast is the same as regular french toast but made with brioche bread. Because of the difference in the bread, it takes your breakfast experience to a whole new level. It’s rich, thick, and delicious – everything you would ever want in a french toast recipe.

Why is brioche a good bread for french toast?

Brioche is a great bread for french toast because its texture makes it great for soaking up just the right amount of the egg mixture without making the slices soggy. It stays light and fluffy, perfectly eggy and holds up to all the toppings you want to add.

Tips for perfect french toast

Cook over medium heat – the key with this is to have the heat hot enough to get that nice outer crust on the toast without scorching or burning it. Keep the heat at medium and flip once browned.

Using full-fat milk – whole milk or even heavy cream really helps to get the egg mixture ultra creamy.

If you reduce the fat in the dairy added, the mixture will be heavier on the egg and often you will get pockets where there are too much egg and others where you don’t get any. Full-fat dairy keeps things well blended.

Only add 1-2 slices at a time to the skillet – don’t over-crowd the skillet. Unless you are working on a griddle, you want enough room to flip with ease, so keeping the cooking to 1-2 slices at a time is perfect.

Don’t oversoak the bread. This is key! Just lay the bread in the wash, flip quickly and then transfer to the skillet. Don’t set another slice in the mix to soak while you are cooking the other slices. This will result in a wet, sloppy mess.

Best bread for french toast

In my opinion, brioche bread is the best for french toast. Not only does it originate from France, like the french toast you create with it – but it gives that perfectly thick and fluffy texture you want in a french toast recipe.

It soaks up the batter perfectly, doesn’t get soggy once cooked and gives you that pampered restaurant feel that can make any morning special.

Brioche French Toast recipe

HOW DO YOU MAKE BRIOCHE FRENCH TOAST?

  1. In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla, and cinnamon.
  2. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tbsp of butter. Make sure the bottom of the pan is fully coated with melted butter.
  3. Dip both sides of each piece of bread into the egg mixture and place it into the buttered skillet.
  4. Allow the toast to cook for 1-2 minutes and then check to see if the bottom side is golden brown. If it is, flip it over and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
  5. Repeat with the remaining pieces of bread, adding another tablespoon of butter between each batch.
  6. Serve the French toast immediately with your desired toppings.

Storing & Reheating French Toast

If you happen to end up with leftovers, place them in an airtight container, layered with a piece of parchment in between each slice of toast. Use within 3 days. You can also freeze the french toast this same way and use within 1 month.

To reheat, thaw overnight in the refrigerator. Then heat in the microwave for 60-90 seconds or until hot.

Banana Carrot Muffins

By Kleinworth & Co Leave a Comment

Banana Carrot Muffins are a quick, easy and delicious breakfast recipe that’s perfect for busy weekday mornings and Easter Sunday alike.

I always get excited when we have fresh baked muffins in the house. Which is why I like to make sure we have some sort of fresh-baked goodie to enjoy with coffee on the weekends.

But when it comes to holiday mornings, I like to add something seasonal to the recipe. Which is how we ended up with these super delicious banana carrot muffins that are perfect for Easter morning.

Banana Carrot Muffins

I don’t know about you, but when it comes to holidays, I like to keep it simple. I plan ahead and try to make sure the day of runs smoothly.

So that means we don’t add making a homemade breakfast the morning of a holiday. There is already so much happening – the last thing I need is to add prep and dishes to the day.

What I do is make some muffins the day before – so everyone can just grab and go to keep things streamlined and easy. It is such a sanity-saver.

homemade muffins

carrot muffins

Here are some commonly asked questions

What is the best way to store leftover banana carrot muffins?

Once the muffins have completely cooled, I like to place them in an airtight container or zip-top bag and keep them at room temperature.

When it comes time to serve again, you can enjoy them right out of the container or zap them in the microwave for a few seconds to make them just like they were fresh out of the oven.

Can I use a sugar substitute?

I have not personally tried the swap so I’m not sure how that will change the flavor and texture. But if you would like to try it, I suggest a product that offers a 1:1 swap. Please let me know how it turns out.

carrot banana muffins

homemade banana muffins

Can I use a vanilla substitute instead of vanilla extract?

Yes.  Vanilla essence does not provide quite the same flavor as regular vanilla extract.  However, it is a good alternative.

Can this recipe be cut in half?

Oh of course! If you only need 6 muffins instead of a dozen – this recipe reduces easily. But do keep in mind that these aren’t jumbo muffins, they are the size of a cupcake – so they go quickly.

How do I properly measure the flour?

The official way is to spoon the flour into the measuring cup & level off. This makes sure the flour isn’t packed tightly into your measuring cup, adding more than you need, as that will make your recipe too dry.

However – if you fluff your flour with a spoon, then gently scoop the flour into the measuring cup, taking care to not pack the flour – that should work for this recipe.

Ingredients for Banana Carrot Muffins

  • mashed bananas
  • eggs
  • brown sugar
  • vegetable oil
  • pure vanilla extract
  • all-purpose flour
  • baking powder
  • ground cinnamon
  • freshly grated carrots
  • chopped nuts or oats optional

Should I use light or dark brown sugar?

Since I make my own brown sugar, I use light brown sugar for almost all of my recipes. But light or dark brown sugar will work in this recipe.

Want to know how to make your own brown sugar – visit my Homemade Brown Sugar post here.

What are some other muffin recipes you recommend?

We have a handful of our “must-make” muffins around here. Check out this list for our favorites that also happen to be “reader-favorites” as well!

Can I use a gluten-free flour?

I’m not sure just yet. I have been meaning to give this a try but haven’t had a chance. If you do try this, I would recommend using a 1:1 flour like this one as I don’t believe it would require additional ingredients that are typically called for when trying to make baked recipes in a gluten-free version. Please come back & tell me how it turned out.

HOW DO YOU MAKE BANANA CARROT MUFFINS?

  1. Preheat the oven to 375F and spray a 12-muffin tin with non-stick spray or line with muffin liners.
  2. Combine the mashed bananas, eggs, brown sugar, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract in a large bowl. Whisk until well combined.
  3. Add the flour, baking powder, and cinnamon and stir until most of the flour has been incorporated.
  4. Add the carrots and fold them into the batter– make sure to fold just until they’re combined. You don’t want to overmix.
  5. Divide the batter between the muffin tins– filling each about ¾ of the way full.
  6. Top with chopped nuts or oats, if desired.
  7. Bake for 15-18 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Remove the muffins to a wire rack to cool.

Can this recipe be doubled?

You can, and we do it often. I highly recommend doubling if you are having a house full of guest or you’d like to have more than enough for more than one day when feeding a family.

Can these banana carrot muffins be frozen?

You bet – these muffins freeze quite well. I recommend placing them in an airtight container and then freezing for up to 3 months. For the best possible quality once they are thawed again – I recommend wrapping each muffin individually with plastic wrap. Then place those wrapped muffins in a zip-top bag before freezing.

Mini Pancake Cereal has taken over the internet. Teeny tiny pillowy pancakes with a crispy outer texture are great with syrup, fruit, & more!

Who loves pancakes? We love them too and for good reason. I think most people grew up having pancakes for breakfast on special occasions.

This, of course, makes them seem all the more special. So it is no surprise that when this mini pancake cereal hit the internet, the world went crazy!

Mini Pancake Cereal

Who wouldn’t love these tiny little buttery pancakes? My kids were saying that it totally makes sense since one of their favorite parts about making pancakes are those tiny little drips that turn out just like this.

So why not make a whole bowl of them to eat like cereal? So simple, and so delicious. I know your kids will love them as much as mine.

Here are some commonly asked questions

Can these be made with pancake mix?

Sure! If you don’t want to mix your own batter in this recipe – just follow the steps starting at #5 here.

Can these mini pancakes be served in milk?

You can – but they are still pancakes, not actually baked cereal – so they will get soggy. You’d have to eat them pretty quickly if you add milk to them.

What should I serve with mini pancake cereal?

Since this pancake cereal isn’t actually cereal, it is best to serve it as you would regular pancakes. Here are some topping ideas to try and be sure to scroll closer to the bottom to catch some of my recipes for homemade syrup flavors.

  • sliced bananas
  • sliced strawberries
  • other berries – such as blueberries, blackberries, huckleberries
  • honey

  • chopped nuts
  • whipped cream
  • jam

HOW TO MAKE Mini Pancake Cereal?

  1. Preheat the griddle and spray with non-stick cooking spray if necessary.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. Add egg, milk, and oil.
  4. Whisk together until smooth.
  5. Transfer the mixture to a plastic squeeze bottle.
  6. Squeeze a very small amount of pancake batter, about the size of a dime onto the heated griddle.
  7. Cook for about 2-3 minutes or until golden brown, then flip and continue cooking on the other side for about 1-2 minutes or until golden brown.
  8. Repeat with the remaining batter.
  9. Remove and serve immediately with butter, syrup, or fruit.

Can these be made in a skillet instead of on a griddle?

Yes – a skillet will work fine. It might take longer depending on the size of the skillet you use.

Keep in mind that since a skillet will be used on the stove – you will want to wait to put it on the heat until AFTER you have mixed your batter. Otherwise, you might burn the pan and have a smoky kitchen.

To make Pancake Cereal you will need

  • all-purpose flour
  • granulated sugar
  • baking powder
  • salt
  • egg
  • milk or buttermilk
  • vegetable or canola oil

What is the best way to store leftover pancake cereal?

Place any unused pancake cereal in an airtight container and keep refrigerated until ready to serve again. To reheat, vent the container by popping the lid and then microwave for 60-90 seconds or until hot.

recipe for Mini Pancake Cereal

Can mini pancake cereal be frozen?

Yes, like regular pancakes these mini pancakes can be frozen. However – they should be frozen individually so they don’t stick together.

The best way to do this is to lay them out on a lined baking sheet in a single layer, without any of them touching, and then freeze until firm. Once frozen, you can then scoop them up into a zip-top bag or another container for space-saving.

Can I use a sugar substitute?

I have not personally tried it, so I can’t say how that would turn out. But if you would like to try it, I suggest a product that offers a 1:1 swap. Please let me know how it turns out.

Can I use a gluten-free flour?

I’m not sure just yet. I have been meaning to give this a try but haven’t had a chance. If you do try this, I would recommend using a 1:1 flour like this one as I don’t believe it would require additional ingredients that are typically called for when swapping flour. Please come back & tell me how they turned out.

How do I properly measure the flour?

The official way is to spoon the flour into the measuring cup & level off. This makes sure the flour isn’t packed tightly into your measuring cup, adding more than you need, as that will make the batter too thick.

However – if you fluff your flour with a spoon, then gently scoop the flour into the measuring cup, taking care to not pack the flour – that should work for this recipe.

Homemade Gingerbread Pancakes

By Kleinworth & Co Leave a Comment

These easy to make Homemade Gingerbread Pancakes are a delicious breakfast recipe that’s perfect for Christmas morning.

The list of treats one can make for the Holiday season is endless.  There is at least one delicious dish for every meal of the day.

Gingerbread Pancakes will definitely steal the show when it comes to an amazing Christmas morning breakfast treat that the whole family would love.  It is quite possible that this dish could earn a spot among your family holiday traditions.

Homemade Gingerbread Pancakes

When one attempts to bring the essence of the Holidays to the breakfast table, the one flavor that comes to mind would be gingerbread.  We remind ourselves of children making complete the gingerbread villages with our parents and grandparents.

Many of you may be looking for creative ways to have some of these memories with your children too.  These Gingerbread Pancakes bring your cherished memories to the breakfast table in a new way by incorporating this classic flavor.

Gingerbread Pancakes

gingerbread and frosting pancakes

Topping these pancakes with a gingerbread man, sprinkles, frosting or whipped cream completes the festive look for Christmas morning.  Though these are good ideas to top this sweet breakfast, you may decide to add your own favorite toppings instead.

These pancakes will surely be a welcome surprise for your kids on Christmas morning.  I hope that it will be a popular tradition for years to come.

Gingerbread Pancake Recipe

Holiday Gingerbread Pancakes

Here are some commonly asked questions

Can I substitute the milk?

Yes.  If you use almond milk as an alternative to regular milk, it would work just fine in this recipe.

Can I use a vanilla substitute instead of vanilla extract?

Yes.  Vanilla essence does not provide quite the same flavor as regular vanilla extract.  However, it is a good alternative.

Christmas Gingerbread Pancakes

Why do you add vanilla extract?

Vanilla extract is a common flavoring found in many baking and sweet recipes using flour.  It adds a certain depth to the flavor of the recipe that extends beyond a more “bready” taste.

Why do you wait to flip the pancakes until there are bubbles on the top?

When you wait until there are bubbles in the top of the pancake that does not fill with loose batter, this indicates that you can flip it without it falling apart.  This is because the pancake itself is stiff enough for the batter to not refill the holds made by the bubbles (i.e., it is not liquid anymore).

Christmas Breakfast Ideas

Ingredients for Homemade Gingerbread Pancakes

How do you make Gingerbread Pancakes?

  1. In a mixing bowl, whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and ginger together.
  2. Add the milk, eggs, and vanilla extract, then whisk together.
  3. Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle to medium-low heat.
  4. Pour ¼ cup of pancake batter onto the skillet for each pancake.
  5. Flip the pancake when bubbles form on the top that does not immediately go away upon reaching the surface.
  6. Once both sides are golden brown, remove from the heat and add a small amount of butter to the top.
  7. Continue until all of the batter has been used.
  8. Top with syrup, frosting, whipped cream, a scoop of ice cream, and/or sprinkles if desired.
  9. Serve immediately.

Christmas Breakfast Recipes

Can these pancakes be frozen?

Yes, I do it often. If you want to make these ahead of time to keep your holiday morning stress-free…let the pancakes cool to room temperature.

Stack the pancakes, placing a piece of parchment paper in-between each pancake. Then place the stacks of pancakes in an airtight container or zip-top bag and freeze for up to 4 months.

To reheat, just separate out the desired amount of pancakes and heat in the microwave until hot. (usually about 1 minute for 1-2 pancakes)

Making Homemade Gingerbread Pancakes

To make Gingerbread Pancakes you will need:

  • all-purpose flour
  • granulated sugar
  • baking powder
  • ground cinnamon
  • ginger
  • milk
  • eggs
  • vanilla extract

Christmas Morning Breakfast Ideas

How do I properly measure the flour?

The official way is to spoon the flour into the measuring cup & level off. This makes sure the flour isn’t packed tightly into your measuring cup, adding more than you need, as that will make your recipe too dry.

However – if you fluff your flour with a spoon, then gently scoop the flour into the measuring cup, taking care to not pack the flour – that should work for this recipe.

Cooking Gingerbread Pancakes

Can I use fresh ginger?

Yes.  The ginger flavor will be stronger, however, it is a perfectly acceptable substitute for grated ginger.

How do I store Gingerbread Pancakes?

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 to 5 days.

Cranberry Quick Bread

By Kleinworth & Co 23 Comments

Cranberry Quick Bread is a beautiful snack bread recipe that’s a perfect gift for friends, coworkers, and neighbors during the holidays. Easy to make with just 5 minutes of prep time. Serve it for Thanksgiving and Christmas breakfasts, snacks, or dessert.

Do you love quick bread? We sure do! Quick bread is great because it isn’t like a traditional yeast loaf. It’s more like a loaf cake.

Of course, that makes it great for not only breakfast but is delicious as a dessert too. So moist with the perfect crumb that keeps you coming back for more.

Cranberry Quick Bread

I particularly love this one because it presents so beautifully. Just look at those gorgeous cranberries and that crusty sugar layer.

I whipped up a batch last year to add to our gifts for the neighbors. When I can make one recipe and gift it away 5-6 times – that is a win!

Here are some commonly asked questions

What is the best way to store leftover cranberry quick bread?

Wrap the bread in plastic wrap or cover the loaf pan with foil and keep at room temperature for up to 3 days. You can also refrigerate if you prefer.

how to make Cranberry Quick Bread

Can I use frozen cranberries?

Yes, absolutely, that will work just fine. Just be sure to thaw them & pat them dry before using.

holiday quick bread

HOW DO YOU MAKE Cranberry Quick Bread?

  1. Liberally grease 5-6 mini loaf pans. Set aside.
  2. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  3. Combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Whisk to combine and set aside.
  4. Add the milk, eggs, and oil together in a large measuring cup, whisk to combine, and then pour it into the dry ingredient mixture.
  5. Fold the wet and dry ingredients until just moistened.
  6. Divide the batter between the prepared loaf pans, filling ¾ full.
  7. Add fresh cranberries to the top and then sprinkle with about ¼ cup of the sugar (divided between all of the loaves)
  8. Bake for approx 40 minutes or until the toothpick test comes out clean.
  9. One done, remove and sprinkle with remaining sugar and allow to cool to room temperature before removing from the pan.

Christmas Cranberry Bread

Can this recipe be made in a regular loaf pan?

Yes, you can make this in 2 regular-size loaf pans. You can also cut this recipe in half and make just one regular-sized loaf. You will want to increase the baking time to 50-60 minutes or until the toothpick test is clean.

before baking quick bread

Can this be made into muffins?

Yes, this recipe is great for mini muffins. Fill a well-greased mini-muffin pan 2/3 full. Bake for about 12 minutes.

You can also portion it out into 2 regular muffin tins. Increase the baking time (instead of 12 minutes for mini muffins) to 24-30 minutes.

When working with traditional muffins, you can increase the heat to 400 degrees for 20-25 minutes or 375 degrees for 23-28 minutes.

I don’t recommend increasing the heat for mini muffins because they are so small and already bake quickly.

adding sugar - Cranberry Bread

To make cranberry quick bread you will need…

  • all-purpose flour
  • granulated sugar
  • baking powder
  • table salt
  • milk
  • eggs
  • vegetable oil

Prep Time5 minutes
Cook Time40 minutes
Total Time45 minutes
Course: Breakfast, Dessert
Cuisine: American
Keyword: bread, cranberry, loaf
Servings: 5 loaves

Ingredients

  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 2 tbsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp table salt
  • 2 cups of milk
  • 2 eggs
  • ⅔ cup of vegetable oil
  • 1½ cups of fresh cranberries
  • ½ cup granulated sugar for the tops

Instructions

  • Liberally grease 5-6 mini loaf pans. Set aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Whisk to combine and set aside.
  • Add the milk, eggs, and oil together in a large measuring cup, whisk to combine, and then pour it into the dry ingredient mixture.

Notes

*Since all ovens bake differently and altitude and humidity levels where you live can have an effect on baking times – the 40 minute suggested time is approximate.
*The number of loaves is between 5-6 since not all mini loaf pans are exactly the same size.

Do you love making recipes with zucchini? For years, every summer my mother-in-law would get an abundance of zucchini from her neighbors. She always had far more than she could reasonably enjoy so she was kind enough to share it with us.

I always loved visiting her and coming home with our own abundance of zucchini. I would spend the next day processing it all, getting it ready for baking.
