Though it wouldn’t be classified as a “snow” day in most places, my boys were excited nonetheless to see the first flakes of the season quietly dust their backyard the other day. The exciting occasion, ushering in a magical season, called for a special winter breakfast.

Home sweet home. There is something about the first pancakes on the deck on a sunny summer morning that makes a new place feel like home. My boys devour these nutrient-loaded banana-oatmeal-chia hotcakes, typically with peanut butter and a splash of syrup, while I like to top mine with almond butter and berries.

These simple pancakes are easy and entertaining, and they make a healthy breakfast, snack or dessert. Your kids will most likely have fun creating the monkey pancakes, too.

Simply layer white (plain or vanilla) yogurt, red berries & fruit, a spoonful of raspberry freezer jam if you want to sweeten your plain Greek yogurt just a bit, and heart-shaped oatmeal pancakes to make a heart healthy breakfast, snack or dessert. And it doubles as an activity: my boys love every opportunity to create with cookie cutters!

My family loves monkey bread. This time we mixed grated apple into the cinnamon-sugar syrup and baked it in a heart pan for a festive and comforting Valentine’s Day treat. With or without apple, this sweet gooey cinnamon pull-apart bread is sure to make your Valentine happy.

I LOVE oatmeal so I was excited at the opportunity to sample a selection of Better Oats instant oatmeal and create a recipe. As I enter the pre-school years and realize that I am now responsible for getting three people ready and out the door in the morning, I was intrigued by Better Oats which promises quick instant oatmeal in tasty flavors while still offering 100% whole grain, added flax seeds, real fruit and all the other health benefits of whole oats.

These pumpkin pie {buttermilk} pancakes topped with maple cinnamon whipped cream and maple pecans transition from a comforting breakfast to a decadent dessert. The finishing touch of maple cinnamon whipped cream and maple pecans is admittedly not the healthiest option but for a special Thanksgiving treat, you’ll be thankful that you indulged!

Earlier this summer we had an overflowing bowl of cherries and out of nowhere my son wanted to make cherry pancakes. Inspired by Ben & Jerry’s Cherry Garcia ice cream, I decided to take it up a notch and add chocolate.

This PB&J parfait transforms one of my favorites – a peanut butter & jam sandwich – into a parfait that triples as a hearty breakfast, healthy snack and wholesome dessert. The options for pb&j combos are endless with different fruit and granola toppings.
