Baked Eggs (aka Hard Boiled Eggs)

There is nothing fancy about these eggs. In fact, this really isn't even a recipe, more of a handy tip. I had heard of making "hard boiled eggs" in the oven before but hadn't given it a try till now. I've struggled with making hard boiled eggs in the past. It was always a hassle to watch the pot till it started boiling to make sure they were done for just the perfect amount of time, and even when they seemed to be cooked well I had issues peeling them. With these eggs, you just put them in the oven and set the timer. Done.
 No waiting around. I found that the eggs were much easier to peel this way also. I mean, look how pretty those eggs are! I haven't peeled an egg that smooth in a long, long time. These are great to keep around for snacks, lunches, etc. The eggs did come out of the oven a little speckled with brown spots so if you are dying these and don't want speckles on your eggs, that may be something to keep in mind. Otherwise, these are exactly the same as hard boiled eggs, only easier to make.

Baked Eggs

 Directions:

Pre-heat oven to 325 degrees F.  Place 12 eggs in a muffin tin.  Bake for 30 minutes then place eggs in an ice bath for 10 minutes.  Peel and enjoy!

Asian Chicken Lettuce Wraps

I am always looking for fast, easy and nutritious meals for my busy weeknight meals.  These wraps have become one of our family favorites.  We serve these with a side of wontons or potstickers to complete the meal. The filling can be made ahead of time and reheated if your day is extra busy. Bibb lettuce is our favorite, but feel free to use iceberg or even romaine for this dish. I hope you enjoy these as much as we do!

Glazed Lemon Loaf Cake

Ever since getting a slice of Lemon Cake from Starbucks a few years back I have been on a quest to find a good copycat recipe.  I've tried several and they were all fine, but this cake is officially the winner.  My search is over! I seriously could not imagine a more perfect lemon cake.   Lemon flavor shines throughout the cake, but the real punch of flavor comes from the delectable glaze. The cake itself is so moist yet fluffy and tender at the same time.  It's like a ray of sunshine on a cold winter's day!

Pumpkin Spice Donuts

I love this time of year when the temperature drops and it's perfectly acceptable to make and eat all kinds of pumpkin things! I've been meaning to try my hand at cake donuts for sometime now and these pumpkin ones were calling my name.  Unlike yeast donuts that require a few rises and fry up nice and fluffy, these cake donuts come together pretty quickly (with a small chilling period) and are more dense and moist in texture. The outside gets all craggy and crispy which is perfect for collecting all the sugary glaze.  Such a delicious combo of textures and perfectly flavored with pumpkin and spices.  We loved these!! Note: I tried making a few of these in the air fryer as an experiment and was amazed at the difference in texture.  Not in a good way.  The air fryer ones were much tougher and not craggy and crispy.  So stick with frying these in oil and you won't be disappointed.
