Apple Pie Smoothie
This Apple Pie Smoothie is beyond delicious, it’s sweet and full of apple pie spice flavor! Made with wholesome ingredients this smoothie is so sweet and perfectly creamy.
I am in a pie craze phase in the middle of summer, haha, blaming it on my pregnancy! What baby wants baby gets! As much as I would love to bake a pie, all the sugar just is not the best for you! Not to mention the oven just heats the house and its already 90 degrees out! So the next best way to enjoy pie in the middle of summer, hello APPLE PIE SMOOTHIE!!
This completely blew my tastebuds away and satisfied my pie craving. I used greek yogurt for some extra protein however to keep this smoothie vegan you could add in your favorite plain plant-based yogurt. Personally I love smoothies that are just so cold and thick, so for this apple pie smoothie, I went ahead and stuck my apples and bananas in the freezer the night before. You could use them fresh the smoothie just won’t be as thick. Frozen or fresh fruit, whatever you prefer the flavor is downright DELICIOUS!!

Strawberry Coffee Cake
Strawberry Coffee Cake is bursting with sweet strawberries in every bite and topped with the most delicious cinnamon streusel. Adding strawberries to coffee cake gives it the perfect summer twist.
So a few days ago I did my grocery shopping at my regular spot, Trader Joes. There were selling 3 pound strawberry boxes for less than what you would find for 1 pound here! I couldn’t resist the sweet smell, however, after I brought them home to wash and put away I realized I would have to freeze half or risk them going moldy and bad. So what better way to use them then in strawberry coffee cake or Strawberry Fields Salad!
This recipe happens to be my son’s favorite, he likes anything but chocolate, haha. We don’t do a whole lot of baking in the summertime as the oven just heats the house, but this is well worth it. And you will have it for the week if you can resist the temptation to not eat it in a few days! If you don’t have strawberries you can use blueberries and make this amazing Blueberry Coffee Cake.
How to make Strawberry Coffee Cake
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and line or grease an 8-inch square baking pan.
Add the flour, cane sugar, baking powder, and salt to a medium bowl, stir and combine. 
Pour in your milk, and add your egg and softened butter. Beat the batter together till combined, the batter is supposed to be very thick, so you’re doing right. 
Gently stir in your strawberries until evenly incorporated. Careful not to burst all the strawberries, I find it easiest to fold them in with my hands. 
Pour your batter into your prepared pan, use your hands to flatten it out. 
For the topping, combine the flour, sugars, salt, and cinnamon with a fork or a pastry cutter. You want it crumbly. Pour over your batter.
Bake until golden brown, about 40-45 minutes. Cut into squares and serve with mascarpone, butter, or on its own. Enjoy!

Easy Egg Bites are simply little frittatas if you will. They have veggies, cheese, and meat if you like. Whatever you like in your eggs you can pretty much throw in egg bites. I used baby greens, tomatoes, bacon, and cheddar cheese. This is one of my favorite combos!

Can you freeze Egg Bites
Absolutely! Cook them as directed, let them fully cool and transfer them to a flat surface tray like a cookie sheet or cutting board. Place them in the freezer for 1 hour then transfer them to a freezer-friendly container.
To Reheat
You can pop these in the microwave and reheat 1-2 mins from frozen, or 30 seconds from the refrigerator. These also reheat great int he oven or toaster oven.

This recipe is my favorite almond flour recipe to date! These Almond Flour Banana Muffins came out perfect, the texture was on point! We ate them with peanut butter and oh my that is my favorite combo! With all this time we have at home right now baking has been a pleasurable pastime. After all, is there anything better than the smell of fresh-baked banana bread in the house.
I made these muffins while my husband was putting the kids to bed, I felt like we needed a healthier snack during our Netflix time. I love the popcorn and gummies but my stomach hurts when I eat a lot of junk, its something I try to stay away from, the junk not Netflix! I added banana coins on top for aesthetic reasons but highly recommend they came out of the oven caramelized.
Almond Flour Banana Muffins are truly the most perfect breakfast, snack, or grab and go eat. If the kids were still in school this would definitely make it in their lunch boxes, speaking of school 1 month left till summer break. Online learning has been interesting, to say the least!
