Banana Bread

Maple Cinnamon Sweet Potato Bread

This comforting sweet potato bread is perfect with a cup of coffee or tea for breakfast or served with a dollop of maple ice cream or sweetened whipped cream for a light dessert. Be sure not to overcook the sweet potato in the microwave—a dry sweet potato will make the bread less moist.

Desserts

Pear Crisp

Top this pear crisp with a simple brown sugar-oat topping, then bake to bubbly perfection.

Chicken

Quick King Ranch Chicken Casserole

Usually made by layering creamy chicken and tortillas (lasagna-style), this classic Tex-Mex-inspired chicken casserole recipe gets speedier when we mix everything together in a skillet and then pop the whole pan under the broiler to make the cheese topping gooey.

Breakfast

Sticky Buns

Sticky Buns are soft, sweet rolls baked in a rich caramel glaze with toasted pecans. Gooey, buttery, and irresistibly delicious, they’re the perfect indulgence for breakfast or brunch. Best enjoyed warm and fresh from the oven.
