Mixed Berry Muffins

By Kleinworth & Co Leave a Comment

Made with fresh or frozen berries, & Greek yogurt, these Mixed Berry Muffins are fluffy and sweet, loaded with all the berry flavor you love.

Mixed Berry Muffins are a delicious and easy breakfast to make! This recipe only requires a few simple ingredients and takes less than 30 minutes to prepare.

This is why I love these muffins so much. Not only are they so crazy easy to make, but it’s fast too. I can be serving them up almost as fast as the craving comes on.

Mixed Berry Muffins

I whip these up almost every Friday afternoon when the berries are in season and we have an abundance of fruit around here. They are perfect for a quick breakfast before we head out to work on the yard or garden on a weekend morning.

I know you’ll love these as much as we do. SOOOOO GOOD!

muffins in the morning

Here are some commonly asked questions

How many muffins will this recipe make?

This recipe will make about 12 muffins. You can easily double the recipe if you need more than one dozen muffins.

What type of flour should I use for mixed berry muffins?

I like to use all-purpose flour for mixed berry muffins. You can try them using different types if you like, however, using a higher-protein flour such as wheat or almond flour will help to create a firmer texture.

What type of berries can I use in mixed berry muffins?

You can use any type of berries you like in mixed berry muffins. My personal combo is blueberries, blackberries, and strawberries. If we are lucky enough to get some huckleberries throughout the season, I like to add those in there too.

stack of muffins

Can I freeze mixed berry muffins?

Yes, mixed berry muffins can be frozen. Simply let them cool completely, then place them in an airtight container or freezer bag and freeze for up to 2 months.

To enjoy again – just thaw in the refrigerator overnight before serving.

Can I make mixed berry muffins without oil?

Yes – these mixed berry muffins can be made without oil, but it is recommended that you use at least some oil in the recipe to help with texture and flavor. Try using unsweetened applesauce in place of the oil if you don’t have any or don’t want to use it.

ingredients for Mixed Berry Muffins

Ingredients for Mixed Berry Muffins

  • all-purpose flour
  • granulated sugar
  • baking powder
  • milk
  • large egg
  • vegetable oil
  • Greek yogurt
  • pure vanilla extract
  • fresh mixed berries

Can I substitute the yogurt?

I do not recommend omitting the yogurt as it keeps the muffins moist. However, you can use low-fat or fat-free yogurt. You can also use sour cream if you don’t have Greek yogurt. Keep in mind that you will lose some flavor when reducing the fat- the fat is where the flavor is.

Can I use regular yogurt instead of Greek yogurt?

For this recipe, you will need to use Greek yogurt or sour cream. Using a regular yogurt won’t have the right consistency to give the muffins what they need to be light and fluffy.

muffin batter with berries

How to Make Mixed Berry Muffins

  1. Preheat the oven to 350F.
  2. Grease 12 standard muffin tins with bakers release or line them with paper liners.
  3. Whisk together the flour, sugar, and baking powder in a medium bowl.
  4. Then whisk together the milk, egg, vegetable oil, yogurt, and vanilla in another medium bowl.
  5. Add the wet ingredients to the dry and mix them together until just combined.
  6. Gently fold the mixed berries into the batter.
  7. Fill each of the muffins until they are ⅔ full.
  8. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean– about 15 minutes.
  9. Remove them from the oven and enjoy.
  10. For storage, place them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

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 baked goods 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.

muffins ready to bake

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 or muffin pan.

How to store leftover muffins

Place any leftover muffins in an airtight container and keep them at room temperature for up to 2 days. You can also keep them in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Just be sure to bring them to room temperature before serving again – they are so much better when they aren’t cold.

Scrambled Eggs Recipe

By Kleinworth & Co Leave a Comment

This easy Scrambled Eggs Recipe is a quick breakfast that can be thrown together in minutes and will keep you satisfied all morning long. (recipe for stovetop, microwave, and air fryer methods)

One of my favorite things to have for breakfast is a nice plate of scrambled eggs. Super light and fluffy with some cheese mixed in making these absolutely incredible. (pair them with my perfect oven-cooked bacon.)

But since I am a self-taught cook, it took me a while to perfect the recipe. But I can honestly say, these are truly THE BEST.

So if you are looking to take all the guesswork out of making eggs – you have come to the right place. I know you’ll love these.

Scrambled Eggs Recipe

If you love a nice and fluffy plate of scrambled eggs, you will love this recipe. These are simple to make and great for a quiet weekend morning at home or making on the griddle while out camping.

I know that there is nothing like a delicious breakfast like this and it doesn’t take but a handful of ingredients and a few minutes to make.

scrambled eggs with cheese

Scrambled Eggs Recipe

Here are some commonly asked questions

How to store leftover scrambled eggs

If you happen to have leftovers, just transfer them to an airtight container and keep them refrigerated for up to 3 days.

To reheat, add a splash of water to the container, cover with a paper towel (this helps them to steam and not dry out) and microwave until hot – usually, just about 30-60 seconds will do it.

Does the type of eggs matter?

Nope – we have made this recipe with brown or white eggs, either from the store or gifted from our neighbor’s chickens. (those are my favorite) But the ratios for the milk and butter shown here are for large eggs.

If you are using medium or smaller eggs, you might need to add 1-2 more to the mix. If you are making an ostrich egg – that is equivalent to about 24 chicken eggs. So you will need to increase this recipe that is for just 3 chicken eggs by 8.

ingredients for Scrambled Eggs

Ingredients for Scrambled Eggs

  • large eggs
  • milk
  • salt and pepper
  • butter

Recipe Options

  • You can use mayonnaise, heavy cream, or half and half in place of the milk.
  • Try mixing in cheese, chopped bell peppers, diced green chiles, sauteed mushrooms, diced onions,

How to tell if eggs are fresh

We have a habit of stocking up on eggs and then forgetting about them because they are out in the garage fridge.

While eggs will keep (if refrigerated properly) for up to 6 weeks beyond the date on the package – I always like to do this nifty little test if I know they have been in there for a while. The date isn’t always accurate.

When eggs go bad – they create an air bubble inside the shell. So if you place an egg in a few inches of water – watch what it does.

  • If it stays at the bottom – it is good.
  • If it sort of hovers halfway between the bottom and the top of the water – it’s on the way to going bad and should be used immediately.
  • NOW – if the egg floats – that means the air bubble has formed and the egg is no longer safe to eat and should be tossed out.
how to make Scrambled Eggs

When you want to make the lightest, fluffiest, and most delicious scrambled eggs, be sure to follow this simple process. First, you need to crack your eggs over a bowl and mix them with a whisk.

You can do this with at least one, two, three, or more eggs, depending on how many you’d like to have for breakfast. After you’ve mixed your eggs, add about a teaspoon of milk or heavy cream, whichever you prefer, and continue to whisk your eggs.

How to Make Scrambled Eggs

  1. Whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until combined.
  2. Heat the butter in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat until melted.
  3. Pour the eggs into the skillet and let cook for 1-2 minutes without moving them around.
  4. Lift the edges of the eggs with a rubber spatula and fold them over into the center of the eggs to form soft curds.
  5. Reduce the heat to medium-low and continue cooking and folding, do not stir.
  6. Remove the pan from the stovetop when cooked to the doneness you like and season with additional salt and pepper if desired.
  7. Serve immediately.

You have the option of adding your seasonings before, during, or after cooking the eggs. It’s always a good idea to add the seasonings while mixing the eggs with the milk so that you can ensure an even distribution of the salt, pepper, and anything else you plan to use on your scrambled eggs.

After you’ve mixed your eggs, grab your skillet, place some butter or margarine in the skillet, and set it to medium-low heat to melt the butter.

As the butter begins melting, pour the content of your bowl into the skillet and allow the eggs to sit for about 30 seconds before you use your spatula to continue mixing them up.

It only takes around two to three minutes to cook these eggs. If you like them soft, it may take less time than that. If you like your eggs dry, you can leave them in the skillet for an extra minute or two.

whisked eggs

making scrambled eggs in the microwave

  1. Beat the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and butter in a microwave-safe bowl until blended.
  2. Microwave on high for 45 seconds.
  3. Remove the bowl and stir.
  4. Return the bowl to the microwave and cook again for an additional 30-45 seconds.
  5. Serve immediately.

Be sure to swap out the spatula when the eggs are less runny so you don’t cross-contaminate by continuing to touch the eggs with the spatula that had the uncooked eggs on it.

melting butter for making eggs

how to make scrambled eggs in the air fryer

  1. Using a medium-sized bowl that will fit in your air fryer AND that is air fryer safe – melt the butter in a preheated 350-degree air fryer for about a minute.
  2. Carefully remove the bowl and swirl the melted butter around to coat.
  3. Add the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper and whisk well.
  4. Place the mixture in the dish back into the air fryer.
  5. Cook on 350 for 10-12 minutes. 

What else can I make with eggs?

Notes

Eggs will continue to cook for up to an additional 3 minutes once they are removed from the heat, so be cautious to not over-cook. The eggs are considered done when they are set but still glistening with moisture. If you cook them too long they will be dry and rubbery.

Easy Poached Eggs

By Kleinworth & Co Leave a Comment

This easy poached eggs recipe makes a great breakfast. All you need is eggs, a little vinegar, water, and a saucepan. So simple and tasty!

Who loves a deliciously runny yolk when enjoying eggs? It is my favorite part of having eggs with breakfast.

While there are plenty of different ways to make eggs and get that great yolk, one of my favorites is to poach the eggs. It is super simple to do and the yolk is perfect every single time.

Easy Poached Eggs

poached egg recipe

Poaching an egg isn’t a complicated process, although it does take a little practice.  The first thing you need to do is add water to a pot.

After you’ve added the water to the skillet, you’re going to need to add a bit of white distilled vinegar into the skillet with the water. You don’t need too much vinegar. About two to three tablespoons would be good enough.

While the water comes to a very gentle boil, it’s time to prepare the eggs. Depending on how old your eggs are, you may want to crack them, one at a time, into a fine strainer and let it set for a few minutes. This will remove any thin egg whites.

The next step is to add them to a small bowl and slip them into the water. You don’t want to mix them or anything like that because then you won’t end up with poached eggs.

poached eggs

soft yolk poached eggs

Now check your water, you want to see a good amount of bubbles on the bottom of the pan, but you don’t want it to be boiling. Using a long-handled spoon, gently stir the water in a circular motion to create a tornado effect, then gently slip the egg into the center of the water that is moving.  

You only need to cook the poached eggs for two or three minutes, so be sure to stand by the stove to avoid overcooking the eggs. If you overcook them, they won’t turn out perfectly.

To remove the egg, use a slotted spatula to lift the egg from the water and place them on a plate, and serve them. You can eat them by themselves or with other foods, including sliced bread or toast. Some people like to add them to salads for extra flavor, too.

Here are some commonly asked questions

Can You Poach Eeggs Ahead of Time?

Absolutely! After the eggs have finished poaching, just place them in an ice-water bath and store them in the fridge for up to 2 days.

When you’d like to eat them, just add some hot water to a small bowl or cup and add the poached egg until it’s warmed up (about 20-30 seconds).

recipe for poached eggs

How to store poached eggs

Poached eggs can be kept in water in an airtight container for up to two days in the fridge and then reheated. Because eggs are rather thick, they won’t absorb much liquid after two days; however, I’ve discovered that the yolks do become a bit moist over time.

How to make poached eggs in the microwave

  1. Fill a microwave-safe coffee cup, glass, or liquid measuring cup halfway with cold water.
  2. Crack 1 egg into the cup.
  3. Place a little microwave-safe saucer on top of the cup to cover the hole completely.
  4. Microwave on high for 30 seconds, then check to see if the egg white is done. Take Care: Even after a very short cooking period, steam can escape rapidly and effectively, so wait several seconds before removing the lid.
  5. Strain the egg after it has been boiled.
making poached eggs

Perfect Poached Eggs Ingredients

  • large eggs – fresh eggs work best, see notes
  • distilled white vinegar
  • water

Is poached egg on toast good for weight loss?

When poached eggs are combined with a moderate amount of healthy fats and carbohydrates, they can be an excellent breakfast choice for people looking to lose weight. A poached egg on toast is filling and provides plenty of nutrients to help get your day started off on the right foot.

Protein-rich foods like poached eggs can help keep you feeling satisfied throughout the morning, helping to prevent snacking later in the day. poached egg on toast recipes is a great way to enjoy this breakfast food while sticking to your healthy eating goals.

Can poached eggs be undercooked?

The risk of salmonella infection increases with the consumption of any food containing eggs. This is especially true if the eggs are undercooked or if the yolk is left runny. As a result, poached eggs might be hazardous to your health since they may harbor salmonella.

how to make poached eggs

Best way to poach eggs

  1. Boil the water in a large pot, then lower the heat, so the water is just bubbling.
  2. Then add the vinegar to the water.
  3. Crack the eggs into individual cups, so they’re ready to pour into the water.
  4. Using a slotted spoon, stir the water in a large circular motion. You want to create a water tornado.
  5. Add the egg to the center of the pot. Gently stir the water to keep the water moving in a circular motion. This will wrap the egg white around itself so the egg stays together as it cooks.
  6. Cook the eggs for 2½ to 3 minutes, then remove using a slotted spoon.
  7. You can place them into an ice bath to stop the cooking process or serve immediately.

How to make poached eggs in the Instant Pot

  1. Add 1 cup of water in the bottom of the Instant Pot insert.
  2. Place the trivet in the pot.
  3. Crack an egg into a liquid measuring cup, then pour it into a poaching cup. Repeat with the other three eggs, making sure the yolks aren’t broken when they’re in the cups.
  4. Place the lid on and set the valve to sealing.
  5. Cook on manual high pressure for 3 minutes.
  6. Quick release the pressure when done.
  7. Remove the eggs as soon as the pin drops.
  8. Run a spoon along the inside of the cup to release the egg.
  9. Place them on a paper towel-lined plate to help absorb excess moisture before serving.

  • Place the lid on and set the valve to sealing.
  • Cook on manual high pressure for 3 minutes.
  • Quick release the pressure when done.
  • Remove the eggs as soon as the pin drops.
  • Run a spoon along the inside of the cup to release the egg.
  • Place them on a paper towel-lined plate to help absorb excess moisture before serving.

Notes

● Use a fine mesh strainer to separate out thin egg whites when using older eggs before cooking them.

Soft Boiled Eggs

By Kleinworth & Co Leave a Comment

Soft Boiled Eggs are a staple in many households. They are a favorite because of the soft and supple whites and that delicious runny yolk. Great for breakfast or brunch or serving for your Easter holiday feast.

There’s a reason why soft-boiled eggs are a breakfast favorite. There’s something about the soft, creamy center that just makes them irresistible. And they’re so easy to make!

I know that our family LOVES that gooey yolk. It’s perfect when paired with so many things for breakfast. You’ll love how easy these are to make.

Soft Boiled Eggs

While these eggs are more commonly made in the spring because people associate having eggs with Easter – you can enjoy these soft-boiled eggs all year long.

Eggs are actually quite good for you – which is why we like to make so many different varieties to keep our mornings interesting.

how to make perfect Soft Boiled Eggs

Here are some commonly asked questions

What is the difference between a hard boiled egg and a soft boiled egg?

While the two are similar – there are some distinct differences – the yolk and how they are served.

If you want to make soft-boiled eggs, you can follow the same process as you would when making hard-boiled eggs, but remove the eggs after only 4-6 minutes. (see my recipe here for Perfect Hard Boiled Eggs)

Be sure to follow the same steps of setting your eggs in water on the stove and then boiling them for several minutes. If you’re not sure whether an egg is ready to remove or not, you can take one out, crack it, peel it, and slice it to check the center.

Once you’ve checked the center, if it still looks soft like how you want it, you can remove the rest of the eggs from the pot full of water.

How to serve soft boiled eggs

Serving soft-boiled eggs while they are still warm is best so you can maintain that deliciously runny yolk, however, you still want to add them to an ice bath to stop the cooking and make them easier to handle.

After they are done, you can use a cutter or knife to crack the shell. We like serving the soft boiled eggs in an egg cup with a small spoon or dipping toast.

How Long do Soft Boiled Eggs Last?

Keep the soft-boiled eggs in the shell, as they will last for approximately two days in the refrigerator. To reheat refrigerated soft-boiled eggs, simply do the same process with half the time.

Ingredients Needed for Soft Boiled Eggs

  • eggs
  • salt & pepper to taste

Can this recipe be doubled?

You can, and we do it often for the stovetop method. When we are feeding the whole family we will double, triple, or quadruple the recipe so that we have enough for everyone. It is simple to do, as long as you work quickly once it is time to move the eggs to the water bath.

Is a soft-boiled egg raw?

Soft-boiled eggs are an egg that has been cooked in their shell until the whites have a custardy texture and the yolks are creamy, with a runny (uncooked) to jam-like (half-set) consistency.

soft boiled eggs recipe

Soft Boiled Eggs in water bath

How to Make Soft Boiled Eggs

  1. Fill a medium-sized pot with 2-3 inches of water and bring to a simmer.
  2. Carefully add the eggs to the simmering water with a slotted spoon.
  3. Allow to simmer for 4-6 minutes.
  4. While the eggs are simmering, get an ice bath ready.
  5. When eggs are done remove them from the pot and add them directly to the ice bath.
  6. Let the eggs sit int he ice bath for 2-3 minutes. Just until they can be comfortably handled.
  7. Crack the end of the egg and remove the shell. Use a small spoon to scoop out the egg.
  8. Season with kosher salt and fresh cracked black pepper, if desired.

Best ways to tell if eggs are fresh

We have a habit of stocking up on eggs and then forgetting about them because they are out in the garage fridge.

While eggs will keep (if refrigerated properly) for up to 6 weeks beyond the date on the package – I always like to do this nifty little test if I know they have been in there for a while. The date isn’t always accurate.

When eggs go bad – they create an air bubble inside the shell. So if you place an egg in a few inches of water – watch what it does.

  • If it stays at the bottom – it is good.
  • If it sort of hovers halfway between the bottom and the top of the water – it’s on the way to going bad and should be used immediately.
  • NOW – if the egg floats – that means the air bubble has formed and the egg is no longer safe to eat and should be tossed out.

How do I know when they’re done?

Unfortunately, there isn’t a way to know without cracking one open. However – if you follow the time guidelines here in this recipe you should end up with perfectly soft-boiled eggs. Over time you might find you have a preference and like to cook them a little less or a little bit longer for the desired doneness. But this recipe here should give you the perfect result.

Can soft boiled eggs be made ahead of time?

Soft-boiled eggs can be kept for up to three days if refrigerated. If desired, heat the eggs in simmering water for 1 minute before serving.

Air Fryer Bagels

By Kleinworth & Co Leave a Comment

Forget about running to the coffee shop for breakfast when you can make warm & chewy, Air Fryer Bagels in the comfort of your own home!

Do you love homemade bagels? Growing up we had coffee drive-thrus and even a massive bagel shop nearby our place. It was quite common for us to swing through and pick up a morning bagel and mocha to enjoy while we sat in traffic each morning on the way to work.

These days we live so rurally that there isn’t anything like that around here. Even the local market only offers a few choices when it comes to bakery goods. So we have become accustomed to making our own.

Air Fryer Bagels

For years I have made bagels in the oven. Then I switched to a super-easy, no-yeast dough and I thought making bagels couldn’t get any simpler. But then the air fryer came on the scene and it was a game-changer.

Honestly – these come together so quickly – you’ll wonder why you ever buy the ones at the store. You can have these super soft and fresh bagels whenever the craving strikes.

air fryer breakfast recipes

recipe for making bagels in the air fryer

Here are some commonly asked questions

How to Store Leftover Bagels

The key to keeping the bagels fresh is to give them just enough air so that they keep from getting too moist. Unlike the ones you get at the store that are loaded with preservatives, these will soak up the moisture from the refrigerator. So I like to keep them in a paper bag at room temperature to keep the texture just perfect.

How to Toast these Bagels

To toast these bagels, slice them in half horizontally. Then spray lightly with oil. Heat the air fryer to 360 degrees. Place the prepared bagel in the air fryer and cook for 2-3 minutes or until it reaches the desired level of toasted perfection.

easy homemade bagels

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.

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 bagel recipe

ingredients for Air Fryer Bagels

Ingredients for Air Fryer Bagels

  • warm water – about 100-110F
  • instant yeast
  • brown sugar
  • all-purpose flour
  • kosher salt
  • honey
  • egg
  • Toppings of your choice

Why add honey to the boiling water?

The honey not only adds a light sweetness to the dough but it also helps to improve browning while the bagels cook. You can leave it out – but I highly recommend you give it a try.

What type of toppings do you recommend?

The sky is the limit when it comes to making all your favorite bagels. Here is a shortlist of the things you can add as toppings.

  • everything bagel seasoning
  • cheddar cheese
  • asiago cheese
  • sesame seeds
  • poppy seeds
  • cinnamon/sugar
  • dried onions + onion powder
  • parmesan cheese
  • sun-dried tomatoes
  • raisins + cinnamon

how to make Air Fryer Bagels

How to Make Bagels in the Air Fryer

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the warm water, yeast, and brown sugar.
  2. Next add the flour and salt and stir the dough together using a dough whisk or wooden spoon. You can also do this in a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook if you prefer.
  3. Once a shaggy dough forms, transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead it for 2-3 minutes, or until it becomes smooth and only slightly sticky to the touch.
  4. Transfer the dough to a lightly oiled bowl and set it aside to rise for one hour.
  5. After the dough has risen, divide it into 4 and shape the dough into a ball.
  6. Poke a hole through the center of each ball to create the traditional bagel shape.
  7. Bring a large pot of water (about 4 quarts) to a boil. Add the honey and stir to combine.
  8. Boil the bagels, one at a time, for 30 seconds per side. Then remove the bagels and place them on a sheet of parchment paper that has been lined with nonstick spray.
  9. Lightly spray your air fryer basket with oil.
  10. Add the bagels to the basket, making sure not to overcrowd them.
  11. Beat the egg with a small splash of water (about 1 tablespoon) to create an egg wash.
  12. Brush the egg wash over the top of each bagel and sprinkle with your choice of toppings.
  13. Cook at 375 F for 8-10 minutes, or until the bagels are golden brown.
  14. Serve warm.
  15. Store any leftover bagels in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days.

Can these be made with 3-ingredient dough?

YES! If you don’t want to make this yeast dough – you can certainly speed up the process by using my super easy 3-ingredient bagel recipe and then cooking them in the air fryer instead of the oven.

What is in everything but the bagel seasoning?

Everything bagel seasoning contains sesame seeds, poppy seeds, salt, garlic powder, and onion powder. It has become quite popular originally as a bagel seasoning and then Trader Joe’s decided to sell it as a stand-alone product which went crazy.

People love it and it pairs quite nicely with cream cheese on a bagel. This is probably why it is so popular.

How to Make Your Own Everything Bagel Seasoning Mix

This is a really easy recipe to make and once you have it on hand – you can add it to more than just these bagels. To make your own seasoning – just mix the following ingredients together in a small bowl and then store in a small airtight container.

  • 2 tbsp poppy seeds
  • 1.5 tbsp dried minced garlic
  • 1.5 tbsp dried minced onions
  • 1 tbsp black sesame seeds
  • 1 tbsp white sesame seeds
  • 2 tsp coarse salt

Here are some commonly asked questions

What is matcha?

Matcha is made from a special Japanese green tea leaf that has been ground into a fine powder. Green tea in general is very high in catechin polyphenols, which are powerful antioxidants that help with many kinds of illness.

What are the benefits of matcha?

In matcha, the catechins, as well as other beneficial chemicals, are much more potent because matcha is made from ground-up green tea leaves, where a greater quantity of matcha – and thus a greater quantity of matcha’s antioxidants – can be ingested.

What does matcha taste like?

Matcha has a bright vegetal flavor with hints of sweetness and umami. Ceremonial grade matcha can be consumed alone, while culinary grade matcha may be used in lattes, smoothies, and other drinks.

The taste of matcha can be earthy. The matcha powder itself might be harsh, but sweetening it with honey or sugar makes it more acceptable. The milk adds to the mix to make it smoother.

Most people use green tea powder in order to make matcha green tea, so if you’ve ever had that, you would know what matcha tastes like, although matcha contains more concentrated antioxidants than brewed green tea.

blending shake - matcha

Ingredients for a Matcha Shake

  • ice
  • coconut milk – you can use 2% milk, skim or almond- whatever you normally use
  • matcha powder
  • maple syrup or honey

So does matcha go bad?

It loses its flavor after a year, even if it is unopened. If the package is opened, it will last up to 4 weeks and then it will lose color, flavor and get worse. It does not spoil in the traditional sense; it just becomes bad.

Can I freeze matcha?

Please do not freeze matcha or Japanese green tea. While it is acceptable to store them in the refrigerator, freezing will cause them to lose flavor.

Because tea leaves are wet, this is a significant component of the taste and nutrients. As a result, frozen tea does the same thing.

green tea shake

matcha

Does matcha contain caffeine?

Caffeine is present in both pre-made green tea and matcha, although it is less than that found in coffee or black tea. Matcha appears to have more caffeine than regular brewed green tea, as well as more EGCG. … The average brewed green tea has 25 to 86 mg of caffeine per serving.

Can I put matcha in my smoothie?

It’s also easy to add it to recipes in order to provide a hint of matcha taste and a nutritional boost since it’s a powder. Matcha is wonderful in baked goods, such as porridge and chia pudding, as well as smoothies.

Is matcha healthier than coffee?

Coffee and matcha are both low in calories and have a harsh flavor. Despite the fact that they’re both caffeinated beverages, coffee has more caffeine per serving than matcha.

matcha milkshakes

How to Make a Matcha Smoothie

  1. Combine the ice, milk, matcha powder, and sweetener in the blender.
  2. Pulse until creamy and smooth.
  3. Portion into glasses and serve with a sprinkle of additional matcha powder and cocoa nibs if desired on top for garnish.

Which fruit goes well with matcha?

Citrus tastes are compatible with matcha, emphasizing the plant flavor of the powder. Citrus (particularly lemon) has been found to improve green tea antioxidant absorption by adding it to a flavor mix.

Does matcha powder oxidize?

Because of the large surface area of the powder, air exposure can expedite matcha’s oxidation. When air is permitted access to matcha for a lengthy length of time, it works its way through the powder and begins to degrade the tea.

green tea milk shake

how to make a Matcha Shake

Can matcha help you lose weight?

I’m not a dietician – but I have heard that matcha contains a high amount of catechins, which have been proven to aid in weight reduction and fat loss. Green tea can assist your body’s metabolism by naturally assisting in the acceleration of it, allowing you to burn more calories and store less fat in the process known as “thermogenesis.”

Do vanilla and matcha go together?

The matcha flavor complements dairy components like milk and cream extremely well, and vanilla adds the perfect smooth sweet flavor. This ice cream is delicate but delicious.

matcha smoothie recipes

breakfast green tea shake

Is it better to drink matcha hot or cold?

Cold and hot matcha are equally delicious. Cold, on the other hand, is more refreshing and has a smoother flavor. While matcha does not need to be heated in order for all of its health benefits to be obtained, it is preferable to prepare the drink with hot water because matcha contains L-theanine, which becomes more accessible when absorbed through the skin.

Should I refrigerate Matcha powder?

One method for keeping your matcha beverage longer is to store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator. The quality of the powder will be maintained by keeping it cool and dry. This is a fantastic option if you live in a hot or humid environment.

You can wrap Breakfast Burritos in plastic and keep them in the fridge like that for up to 3 days or put Breakfast Burritos into an airtight container and freeze them for up to 1 month.

Breakfast Burritos can also be wrapped in aluminum foil and frozen for up to 1 month which is really nice if Breakfast Burritos are something that you always have on hand throughout the year, you just take Breakfast Burritos out of the freezer when they’re frozen solid and let them thaw out in the fridge overnight.

What are Breakfast Burritos?

Breakfast Burritos are tortillas filled with eggs, meat, cheese, and other Breakfast Burrito fillers. Breakfast Burritos can be eaten at any time of the day but Breakfast Burritos are usually eaten for breakfast.

Can I change the ingredients added to these burritos?

Yes, sometimes I like to add some bacon, a sausage link, or some ham or black beans. You can also try sausage chunks, bacon bits, jalapenos, onion pieces, and other types of cheese.

Another option is to use a spinach wrap instead of tortillas. I also like to use pita pockets for this recipe to change it up.

Tips for making the best homemade breakfast burritos

  • Always start with fresh, room-temperature tortillas. It will be so much more difficult to roll the tortillas if they are cold or stale. You want them super soft and stretchy for the best rolling.
  • Try using a tortilla warmer to help the tortillas stay perfectly soft.
  • If you don’t have a tortilla warmer – try placing them on a plate – sandwiched between 2 damp paper towels. Then microwave for several seconds at a time.
  • Don’t over-stuff the tortilla. This will only cause them to break – which defeats the whole purpose of making breakfast portable.

Are these morning wraps healthy?

That depends on how you look at it. The fillers can include meat and veggies along with eggs and cheese which means they are full of protein and iron. They can also contain calcium, vitamin A, vitamin C, and other nutrients that keep them healthy in addition to making them flavorful.

However- they are usually high in calories because the fillers can include eggs, cheese, and other ingredients that are high in fat. You have to weigh the fact that they are full of nutrients which can make them healthy to eat on a regular basis.

Where did Breakfast Burritos originate?

These originated where I grew up in Southern California, which is why they are a staple for me. There they’re served in restaurants and by street vendors throughout the state.

They are recognized as a regional breakfast dish of Southern California, Northern California, and San Diego in particular (even though San Diego falls in the Southern California category).

The breakfast wraps are also popular in New Mexico where the fillers can include green chiles, pork and are often seasoned with chili powder. SO GOOD!

It is no surprise that breakfast burritos were created in San Diego when a burrito vendor added breakfast ingredients to a burrito at the request of one of his English-speaking customers who wanted breakfast ingredients instead of what was on the menu.

I’m so very glad he made that request. I don’t know what I would do without this delicious morning recipe that has been a part of my life for decades now.

Grinch Donuts

By Kleinworth & Co Leave a Comment

Grinch Donuts is a fun Christmas morning breakfast. This easy donut and donut hole recipe – decorated with green frosting and a single Grinch heart make for the cutest holiday morning that the kids will love.

The holiday season is so incredibly busy. There is so much to do – especially on Christmas morning. No one wants to cook or spend all day in the kitchen. But we have to eat and we can’t live off of the candy in the stockings all day.

So I like to plan out some quick and easy breakfast ideas to serve on Christmas morning. I like to keep it simple, something I can make the night before and people can grab as they get hungry so there isn’t any pressure to sit down for a formal meal. That’s where these super cute Grinch Donuts come in.

Pumpkin Muffins Recipe

By Kleinworth & Co Leave a Comment

This Pumpkin Muffins Recipe is great for breakfast or a snack. These jumbo-sized, bakery-style muffins are moist and fluffy, with a perfect sweetness.

Do you love standard muffins or do you prefer jumbo muffins? You know the kind you get at the bakery? Or Costco muffins that are all the rage?

For me – if I am going to go through the trouble of having breakfast – it better be worth it. So I’m a “go big or go home” kind of person when it comes to food. This is why I’m all about the jumbo, bakery-style muffins like these pumpkin muffins here. They are INCREDIBLE!

Bakery-Style Pumpkin Muffins Recipe

easy pumpkin muffins

Not only are these scrumptious – but they are so incredibly easy to make too. If you can dump ingredients into a bowl and whisk them together – you can make these muffins.

Nothing too complicated and they are ready in just over 30 minutes – which I love because I am definitely not known for my patience.

When the pumpkin craving strikes, or when the family says they are really wanting a big, perfectly moist pumpkin muffin to pair with their coffee on a chilly fall morning – these muffins whip up in no time. You can’t beat that. I know you’ll LOVE them.

pumpkin breakfast

Here are some commonly asked questions

What is the best way to store leftover pumpkin 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.

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.

fall breakfast muffins

What other recipes can be made with pumpkin?

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

Why do I need pumpkin puree instead of pie filling?

This is really important when making pumpkin recipes. Pay close attention to the recipe & see if it calls for one or the other.

This recipe calls for pumpkin puree, which is just pumpkin that is cooked & pureed. Pumpkin pie filling is the puree mixed with sweeteners & spices – which isn’t what is usually called for when it comes to most recipes that use pumpkin.

They are not usually interchangeable because it will change the flavor & possibly the consistency of the recipe you are making.

ingredients for Bakery-Style Pumpkin Muffins

Ingredients for Pumpkin Muffins

  • pumpkin puree
  • all-purpose flour
  • granulated sugar
  • eggs
  • vegetable oil
  • pumpkin pie spice
  • baking powder
  • vanilla extract
  • baking soda
  • table salt

What if I don’t have pumpkin pie spice?

I understand that you might not keep pumpkin pie spice on hand – or maybe you used so much last season that you may have run out. No problem – just blend the following ingredients together and you will have your own homemade pumpkin pie spice.

  • 1/3 cup cinnamon
  • 1 tbsp each of ground ginger, nutmeg, ground cloves
  • 2 tsp Allspice

bakery style pumpkin muffins

how to make Pumpkin Muffins

How to Make Pumpkin Muffins

  1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
  2. Line a jumbo muffin pan with 6 liners. Set aside.
  3. Combine the pumpkin puree, flour, sugar, eggs, vegetable oil, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, vanilla extract, baking soda and salt in a large mixing bowl.
  4. Whisk well until fully combined.
  5. Spoon or ladle the batter into the prepared muffin tin.
  6. Bake for 5 minutes at 425 degrees.
  7. Without opening the oven, reduce the heat to 350 degrees and continue baking for another 25-30 minutes or until the tops of the muffins are tall and spring back when gently pressed.
  8. Remove and allow to cool to room temperature before placing in an airtight container.

Tips for the Best Pumpkin Muffins

  • All-purpose flour is a great neutral flour to use in this recipe. Just makes sure you’re measuring it correctly using the spoon and level technique.
  • I opted for granulated sugar because it sweetens the muffins but feel free to substitute light brown sugar if desired.
  • The pumpkin pie spice adds great warmth and spice to the muffins. You can substitute 1 teaspoon of cinnamon and ½ teaspoon nutmeg if needed.
  • The baking powder and baking soda help the muffins rise.
  • Eggs hold the muffins together.
  • The pumpkin puree adds the pumpkin flavor and color. Please don’t use pumpkin pie filling.
  • Vegetable oil adds richness and helps keep the muffins moist.
  • The vanilla enhances the flavor of the pumpkin and spices.

how to make Bakery-Style Pumpkin Muffins

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.

Why bake at different temperatures?

We bake the muffins at a higher temperature for the first 5 minutes because it helps the sides of the muffins bake at a faster rate during that time. This then forces the batter to then bake upwards instead of outwards while baking slowly at the lower temperature for the remainder of the time.

This allows for a nice tall muffin with a perfectly domed top – instead of a flat muffin that reaches the top of the liner and then spills out and bakes in a random shape.

best pumpkin muffins

baked pumpkin muffins

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.

Can I add chocolate chips to these muffins?

Yes – that would be absolutely delicious. I recommend using regular-sized chocolate chips instead of mini chocolate chips because these muffins are so large. Also, I highly recommend the GHIRARDELLI 60% Cacao Bittersweet Chocolate Premium Baking Chips because they offer a larger chocolate chip that is almost as large as Hershey’s drops.

Of course, if you choose to make this recipe as standard muffins – then either regular chocolate chips or mini chocolate chips would be perfect.

If making mini muffins – I only recommend using mini chocolate chips.

Bakery-Style Pumpkin Muffins Recipe

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.

Apple Cider Donut Holes

By Kleinworth & Co Leave a Comment

Apple Cider Donut Holes are an easy breakfast recipe made with a simple apple cider batter and baked in a mini muffin tin, then rolled in a cinnamon and sugar coating. They are positively scrumptious!

I sure get excited about fall and all the flavors that come with it. Fall has always been my favorite season – but now that we have this property my fall days are full of picking apples from our orchard and making all sorts of apple recipes – fall is all the more fun.

easy donut holes

So here I was picking through all of my apple recipes in grandma’s cookbooks this season because we had a massive crop of apples this year. I knew I would be making apple recipes for FOREVER. We had already made a ton of cider and wanted to make some recipes with that cider. I think these little donut holes were a perfect choice.

Be sure to try our Instant Pot Apple Cider & Apple Cider Donut Cake!

I’m so in love with these little donut holes. My daughter has been begging me to make more since she ate the last of this batch. Fortunately, the recipe is so easy that I can just hand it off to her and let her make her own.

These are the perfect little breakfast to enjoy throughout the fall season. I know I will be making these for guests coming this Thanksgiving – they are definitely a hit.

Here are some commonly asked questions

How to store leftover donut holes

These mini muffins/donut holes are super easy to store. Just place leftovers in an airtight container and keep them at room temperature. I don’t recommend refrigerating as the cooler air will moisten the sugar coating and make it dissolve and soak into the donut holes.

baked apple cider donuts

sugar coated mini muffins

Why are these called donut holes?

While these are technically mini muffins – when they are baked and then rolled in the cinnamon and sugar mixture they take on the flavor and texture of a donut hole. Because they are also the same size and shape as a donut hole – the name just sort of stuck and became the popular and more common way to refer to these tasty little gems.

Can these be made as a regular-size muffin?

Sure – these can be made in a standard muffin tin. If you would like to do that – bake for 15-18 minutes or until golden on top and spring back when they are gently pressed on the tops.

How to Make Apple Cider Donut Holes

Donuts

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Lightly oil or grease a mini muffin tin – set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and cinnamon. Whisk to combine.
  4. Whisk in the cider, sour cream, eggs, vanilla and molasses until the mixture is smooth and all of the ingredients are combined.
  5. Spoon into the prepared baking pan – you should be able to get about 1-2 tbsp of batter in each well of the ini muffin tin. I filled each until they were just below the tops.
  6. Bake 10-13 minutes or until lightly browned and the tops spring back when lightly pressed.
making the batter for Apple Donuts

How to Make Apple Cider Donut Hole Coating

  1. While the muffins are baking – combine the sugar with the cinnamon and stir well.
  2. Once the muffins are done baking – immediately remove one muffin and dip it in the melted butter, then immediately roll it in the cinnamon/sugar mixture until coated.
  3. Set the coated “donut hole” on a plate or in a bowl and continue with the remaining donut holes until they are all coated.
  4. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.

ready to make Apple Cider Donut Holes

What type of apple cider should I use?

I used homemade cider (which I will be linking to here once I get that post written) but you can use the jug of cider that you can find at either the local farmers market or the grocery store. Keep in mind that if you are using a commercial brand vs something made locally and found at the orchard – the cider will most likely be thinner.

My cider had a thicker consistency which made for a thicker batter. Either is okay.

Also – you can use either the spiced cider or the plain cider – that is up to you if you want to have a stronger spiced flavor to the donut holes. I used spiced cider – but they are delicious either way.

apple cider baked donuts

coating ingredients for Apple Cider Donut Holes

Can these be baked into regular donuts?

Yes – if you have a standard donut pan, you can add the batter to the pan and bake for 8-10 minutes at 350 degrees. I don’t recommend trying to fry this dough as it is meant to be baked.

apple donut recipe

making the cinnamon sugar coating

Can this recipe be cut in half?

Yes – this recipe makes 48 donut holes – which was enough for the 3 of us here to enjoy for a whole weekend. I made this recipe because I had the larger mini muffin pan and I had completely forgotten that I also had a couple of smaller mini muffin pans I could have used. Either way – this recipe easily reduces to make half or you can double it if you need a whole lot of donut holes.

Since we have quite a few apple trees on our property – it is no surprise that we make a ton of apple recipes. Here are just a handful of our favorites.

adding the sugar coating to donuts

Can these be made with apple juice?

Theoretically yes, however, the apple juice will give you a very light apple flavor compared to what you get with the apple cider. In addition to that, it will be a much thinner consistency, resulting in a thinner batter – so you will want to make sure your sour cream is thick and doesn’t have too much whey mixed in before you add it.

Apple Cider Donut Holes

Apple Cider Donut Holes are an easy breakfast recipe made with a simple apple cider batter and baked in a mini muffin tin, then rolled in a cinnamon and sugar coating. They are positively scrumptious!
Prep Time10 minutes
Cook Time13 minutes
Total Time23 minutes
Course: Breakfast
Cuisine: American
Keyword: apple cider, cinnamon, donut, mini muffins, muffins
Servings: 48 mini donuts

Ingredients

Donuts

  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 4 tsp baking powder
  • 4 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 cup apple cider
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 2 eggs – gently beaten
  • 3 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp molasses

Coating

  • ½ cup butter – melted
  • 1½ cups granulated sugar
  • 3 tsp cinnamon

Instructions

Donuts

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Lightly oil or grease a mini muffin tin – set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and cinnamon. Whisk to combine.
  • Whisk in the cider, sour cream, eggs, vanilla and molasses until the mixture is smooth and all of the ingredients are combined.
  • Spoon into the prepared baking pan – you should be able to get about 1-2 tbsp of batter in each well of the ini muffin tin. I filled each until they were just below the tops.
  • Bake 10-13 minutes or until lightly browned and the tops spring back when lightly pressed.

Coating

  • While the muffins are baking – combine the sugar with the cinnamon and stir well.
  • Once the muffins are done baking – immediately remove one muffin and dip it in the melted butter, then immediately roll it in the cinnamon/sugar mixture until coated.
  • Set the coated “donut hole” on a plate or in a bowl and continue with the remaining donut holes until they are all coated.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature.

Notes

This recipe can be made into regular-sized muffins. Bake those for 15-18 minutes.
You can use milk in place of sour cream

You need to try this recipe. It is so easy and quick. They are the most perfect donuts, filled with pumpkin goodness, and smothered with maple cream cheese icing. I always take advantage of an opportunity to add maple. It’s my nature.

I’m telling you – these Pumpkin Donuts with Cream Cheese Frosting are full of warm cinnamon flavor and are everything you need in a fall treat. These are so simple and perfect for breakfast or dessert!

Here are some commonly asked questions

Can these donuts be frozen?

So yes and no. My suggestion would be that you can freeze the donuts after they are baked. But you should then reheat and add the frosting when you are ready to serve.

Why do I need pumpkin puree instead of pie filling?

This is really important when making pumpkin recipes. Pay close attention to the recipe & see if it calls for one or the other.

This recipe calls for pumpkin puree, which is just pumpkin that is cooked & pureed. Pumpkin pie filling is the puree mixed with sweeteners & spices – which isn’t what is usually called for when it comes to most recipes that use pumpkin.

They are not usually interchangeable because it will change the flavor & possibly the consistency of the recipe you are making.

What is the best way to store leftover donuts?

I like to put them in an airtight container and refrigerate them. You can keep them at room temperature providing your home isn’t too warm.

What if I don’t have pumpkin pie spice?

I understand that you might not keep pumpkin pie spice on hand – or maybe you used so much last season that you may have run out. No problem – just blend the following ingredients together and you will have your own homemade pumpkin pie spice.

  • 1/3 cup cinnamon
  • 1 tbsp each of ground ginger, nutmeg, ground cloves
  • 2 tsp Allspice

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.

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 to Make Baked Pumpkin Donuts

  1. Preheat the oven to 350F and grease a full-size donut pan with nonstick baking spray or bakers release.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice, and baking powder.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together the egg, pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, milk, and vanilla.
  4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry and whisk just until no large lumps remain– you don’t want to overmix.

  6. Bake for 14-16 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Transfer the baked donuts to a wire rack to cool.

Tips for the Best Pumpkin Donuts

  • All-purpose flour is a great neutral flour to use in this recipe. Just makes sure you’re measuring it correctly using the spoon and level technique.
  • I opted for light brown sugar because it sweetens the donuts but adds a little more depth of flavor than granulated sugar. Feel free to substitute granulated sugar if you don’t have brown sugar on hand.
  • The pumpkin pie spice adds great warmth and spice to the donuts. You can substitute 1 teaspoon of cinnamon and ½ teaspoon nutmeg if needed.
  • The baking powder helps the donuts rise.
  • The egg holds the donuts together.
  • The pumpkin puree adds the pumpkin flavor and color. Please don’t use pumpkin pie filling.
  • Vegetable oil adds richness and helps keep the donuts moist.
  • I used whole milk because it’s what I had on hand– feel free to use any kind of milk you like.
  • The vanilla enhances the flavor of the pumpkin and spices.
  • The cream cheese is the base of our icing and the tanginess pairs perfectly with the pumpkin.
  • The maple syrup gives our icing a great earthy sweetness.
  • The confectioner’s sugar is the base of our icing– if your icing seems too thin, feel free to add a bit more sugar. If it seems too thick, feel free to thin it with a tablespoon of milk or water.

Pumpkin French Toast

By Kleinworth & Co Leave a Comment

Pumpkin French Toast is a great recipe for using leftover pumpkin puree. It’s a delicious, easy breakfast that can be made ahead of time, enjoyed all week, and is perfect for fall.

This dish is perfect for Thanksgiving and any other holiday breakfast. It has all the warm flavors of pumpkin pie in a french toast form. Plus, you can make it the day before so it’s an easy breakfast on the morning of your big day.

In this recipe, I use brioche bread that is dense, but still fluffy with a slight chew to it. The egg batter is flavored with pumpkin puree and spices and then doused in maple syrup to keep it moist. This Pumpkin French Toast tastes just like fall!

Pumpkin French Toast

French toast is an eggy, bread-based recipe that is often eaten at breakfast or brunch. To make the french toast, the slices of bread are dipped in a beaten egg mixture and then fried in a skillet until golden brown.

Pumpkin French Toast is essentially traditional French toast but with pumpkin pie spice and pumpkin puree added to the eggs. It is positively delicious – we can’t get enough.

They are not usually interchangeable because it will change the flavor & possibly the consistency of the recipe you are making.

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.

pumpkin brioche french toast

pumpkin toast brioche

What makes brioche sweet?

There are many factors that make brioche sweet. The butter is a major one. Butter has a high-calorie content and it melts in the oven, releasing flavors from the other ingredients as it bakes and leaving behind pockets of flavor in the dough.

It’s important to use unsalted butter because its natural flavor provides a delicate complexity to the overall flavor of brioche dough. Adding salt would make the dough taste salty and would counteract with other flavors that you’re adding to it like vanilla, brown sugar, honey, or sour cream.

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.

pumpkin spice french toast

fall breakfast

How is brioche made?

Brioche is a pastry that is made from dough with butter, eggs, and sugar. This pastry is often flaky on the outside and soft on the inside. The brioche dough has a rich history in France but it was also brought to America by French immigrants.

There are many variations of this pastry including plain, wheat flour versions and chocolate-covered varieties.

Tips for perfect pumpkin french toast

Cook over medium heat – the key to 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.

ingredients for Pumpkin French Toast

Ingredients for Pumpkin French Toast

  • eggs
  • whole milk
  • pumpkin puree
  • granulated sugar
  • maple syrup
  • pumpkin pie spice
  • butter 
  • brioche bread

Notes for making Pumpkin French Toast

  • Eggs are the base of our batter– they coat the bread and help form a delicious crust on the French toast.
  • Milk thins out the batter and helps the egg and pumpkin combine so it doesn’t become too thick. I used whole milk but any kind will work– even non-dairy milk.
  • Pumpkin puree adds pumpkin flavor and color. Make sure to use pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling.
  • Maple syrup adds sweetness to the batter. Feel free to leave it out if you prefer.
  • Pumpkin pie spice helps enhance the pumpkin flavor and adds a bit of spice and warmth. You can swap cinnamon if you don’t have any on hand.
  • Butter helps prevent the toast from burning and sticking to the pan. Feel free to use a non-stick cooking spray if you prefer.
  • I used brioche because it’s a bit thicker and richer than regular white bread. Feel free to use whatever bread you have on hand.
soaking the bread for french toast

How to Make Pumpkin French Toast

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, and pumpkin pie spice until smooth.
  2. Heat a large, nonstick skillet over medium high heat.
  3. Add a small bit of butter (about ½ tablespoon) to the pan and allow it to melt. If you’re using a big pan– feel free to use as much butter as you need to lightly coat the bottom.
  4. Dip one piece of brioche into the egg mixture and flip it to coat both sides.
  5. Transfer it quickly (and carefully) to the preheated pan. Repeat with as many slices as will fit in your pan.
  6. Cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the French toast is golden brown. Flip it to the opposite side and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
  7. Repeat with the remaining slices of bread.
  8. This French toast can be kept warm on a wire rack in a 225F oven for up to 30 minutes.
  9. Store any leftover French toast in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days.

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!

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.

This super easy Hashbrown Breakfast Casserole is made with milk, eggs, butter, sausage, bacon, hash browns, and cheese. What a great start to the day!

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.

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.

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.

applesauce in 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.

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.

Air Fryer Peach Fritters

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!

air fryer fritter recipes

air fried fritters with peaches

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.

baked fritters

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.
recipe for Air Fryer Peach Fritters

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.

muffins with rhubarb

rhubarb muffin in hand

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.

muffins rhubarb

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.

fruit salad

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

honey dressing for fruit salad

How to make fruit salad

  1. Clean and cut all of the fruit and add it to a large bowl.
  2. Stir gently to combine.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the juice and honey for the dressing until well combined.
  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.

  • Cantaloupe

  • Strawberries
  • Blackberries
  • Red raspberries
  • Blueberries

  • lime juice or frozen concentrate limeade
  • honey

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.

chocolate chip muffins from scratch

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.

chocolate chip muffins

easy giant chocolate chip muffins

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.

best chocolate chip muffins

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
