Whole-Wheat Corn Bread

I love corn bread. It's probably my favorite quick bread and I almost prefer it with my spaghetti over french bread. It's faster to make, and tastes so  yummy. My only problem with it is its hard to only eat one piece. I have revamped my old, traditional recipe, to be healthier. Whole grains, honey instead of sugar, and lower-fat  make this more like a bread than a cake. It's a winner with even the toughest of judges.

Pumpkin Bread

I love pumpkin and everything that goes along with it: cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and allspice. A nice piece of pumpkin bread with a hot cup of tea is my idea of a cozy morning on a rainy day. Make  up a batch of this pumpkin bread and enjoy a relaxing morning on me.

Zucchini Bread

Finally! I have been working on this recipe all summer long trying to get it just right. I wanted a bread that was moist and amazingly delicious, without all of the fat and sugar that is traditionally in zucchini bread. There were a few attempts that were palatable, but not quite there, and a few that just went directly into the compost. I finally hit on the right combination. Unfortunately I could eat this bread all day long now, and even though it is low-fat, low-sugar and entirely whole grains..... ya, it still has calories, so I don't think a whole loaf would look so great on the backside.

Whole-Wheat Pizza Crust

When the kids were home, for most of their growing up years, Friday night was pizza night. Every Friday we would gather in the kitchen and make round masterpieces of deliciousness. Our pizza has evolved a lot over the years, but has only gotten better and better: you can say that it has taken me the better part of 20 years to come up with the perfect pizza crust - 100% whole-wheat, low added oils, low sugar, and pure amazing! I think this Friday is going to be pizza night!!!

Honey Whole-Wheat Bread

I love bread: I love the taste, texture and most especially the smell. There is nothing more appealing to me than my house permeated with the smell of bread in the oven. Yum!! Several years ago I was on a quest to come up with a bread recipe that was great. So many homemade whole-wheat bread recipes are heavy and dry - and where is the pleasure in that?! It took me many months, and a whole lot of failures, but I finally came up with the perfect bread recipe. 100% whole-wheat, refined sugar free, moist, soft, and just plain wonderful!!
