I was staying at a hotel in Singapore when I first discovered Bircher Museli. They had the most beautiful breakfast buffet. Plenty of traditional Asian dishes and a rather extensive European breakfast spread. And it was there I became obsessed with Bircher Museli. Bircher Museli reads like a luxurious bowl of creamy overnightoats. I'd chalk it up as Europe's more sophisticated response to what we Americans have come to know as overnight oats. Rather than simply combining oats

This may be one of the most satisfying waffles I've made. Completely debatable as to whether or not this is more dessert than breakfast. Which is perhaps why they are so crave-worthy. But I'm not judging. Clearly. I've tweaked my recipe for The Ultimate Waffle to read more like a churro, adding a bit of orange zest and nutmeg. To make for a more dense, churro-like texture, I nixed the added hassle of whipping egg whites. Simply crack the eggs into the batter. So not only are

I love a good Crockpot Oatmeal, just about as much as I do a good Pumpkin Oatmeal. So why not kill two birds with one stone? This recipe reads pretty similar to my stovetop Pumpkin Spice Oatmeal . I've taken the liberty of zhuzhing it up a bit with some diced apples. To each their own. But if I can be so bold, I'd recommend serving with a bit of vanilla ice cream... just like you might serve with a splash of cream and sprinkle of sugar! Where did I get this genius idea? A whi

I always forget how much I truly enjoy incorporating potatoes into my breakfast recipes. It always makes for a hearty bite and just emanates those cozy, downhome diner vibes. And come on, who doesn't love a tasty breakfast quiche? The pain-point is usually in preparing the crust. This recipe solves that problem! If you have a bag of frozen tater tots, you can whip up a delightfully crisp and tasty crust. Parbaking the tots enables you to artfully smush the potatoes just enoug

I initially tried to distance myself from the "Pumpkin Flavored Everything" crowd. But here's the brutal truth... pumpkin is delicious. Sweet, savory. Quick breads, pies, lattes, chili, cornbread. It's a downright tasty and versatile ingredient. So guess what - I suppose I'm that Pumpkin Flavored Everything Bitch. 'Tis the season. Eat a muffin and be merry!
