I’m back with another pumpkin spice recipe! I just can’t help myself. It is my favorite time (and flavor) of the year. I’m extra excited about this avocado pumpkin spice cake recipe because – duh – it has fresh avocados!

Are you a pumpkin spice fan? It’s one of my favorite flavors. I love fall because it means I get to bake with as much pumpkin spice as I want. I absolutely adore all things pumpkin spice. If you follow my recipes, you know that I’ve created a lot of pumpkin spice recipes over the years. (cookies, ice cream, coffee cake, bars, pancakes, just to name a few). This year, I wanted to try something completely new. My cousin-in-law recently made these pumpkin spice shortbread cookies, so I knew I had to give this recipe a shot – and my own spin.

I’m so glad it’s Halloween season! It’s definitely one of my favorite holidays. Who doesn’t like dressing up in fun costumes and getting free candy? Next to Christmas, Halloween is definitely my favorite holiday. To get in the spirit, I decided to try making these fun Halloween spider cookies and I’m SO excited how they turned out.

I’m on a healthy snack kick and I also want to find ways to get my kids to try new foods. That’s why I decided to try making these honey roasted chickpeas.

If you haven’t noticed, I’m on a bit of a healthy snack-making kick. Last week, I shared this beet chips recipe. This week, it’s carrot chips. Now that I realized just how easy it is to make healthy snacks at home, I’m not stopping there! I’m all about finding interesting ways to get my kids to try new foods, and these baked carrot chips are no exception.

Today is my kids’ first day of school so I’m already thinking about fun and simple afterschool snacks I can serve them. I’m not sure about your family, but we tend to get stuck in a snacking rut – the little fish shaped crackers or an apple sauce packet. I tend to lose most of my creativity by the afterschool hour. So, I’ve decided to try my hand at making some easy homemade snacks like these simple beet chips.

Did you know you can make ice cream at home without an ice cream maker? Well you absolutely can! Today I’m going to share with you how I made this dulce de leche ice cream at home without an ice cream maker. It is SO easy AND SO good.

It’s almost back to school time and it happens to be National Zucchini Day, so I wanted to whip up a quick, easy, and healthy snack that is perfect for afterschool. These zucchini Parmesan crisps are so simple to make and totally kid-friendly.

I’m a genius. No really. Well, not really. But these strawberry lemon sugar cookies make me feel like a genius. I had no idea how amazing dried strawberries would be in a lemon sugar cookie recipe. These are amazing. You need to make them now.
