My personal favorite: Valentine Monkey Bread 💕 Cut flaky biscuits into quarters. Toss all quarters in sugar. Put 4 quarters in a sprayed muffin tin and cook until slightly turning brown (10-15 min). As soon as you take out of oven pour warmed icing (strawberry or your favorite) over monkey bread and top with sprinkles!

Toss in cinnamon and sugar and you can feed a huge crowd! 50 long churros (these are cut in half) for $28! When you bake them yourself they are so much better! My 2nd graders class went wild over them today! 🎉

We went for the healthy option on this National Doughnut Day. We baked these delicious apple cider doughnuts and even used apple sauce instead of oil. I have to admit they taste more like a muffin but everyone loved them. 2 cups apple cider 2 cups all-purpose flour 1½ teaspoon baking powder 1½ teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon cinnamon Dash of fresh nutmeg ¼ teaspoon salt 1 egg 2 tablespoons butter, melted ⅔ cup light brown sugar ½ cup milk (add a little vinegar to make buttermilk) 2 tablespoons apple sauce (we used baby apple oatmeal) 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Simmer apple cider until reduced to 1/2 C. Add all dry ingredients together and mix Add all wet ingredients and mix. Add wet ingredients to dry mix until combined. This was originally for doughnut holes but you can use mini muffin tins, doughnut trays, I used some fall molds I had. Anything works! For the icing I used 1/2 C maple syrup, 1/4 C butter (melt together). Then add 1 cup sifted powdered sugar. I added some cream cheese too….

My girls love to help in the kitchen so instead of having them “help” with party prep this week, I raided the freezer and we ended up with these yummy apple galettes. My 2,4, and 6 year olds made these and they were easy and fast. Use leftover pie dough. In this case I had one Trader Joes pie crust left in my fridge and split it into 3 pieces. We chopped up apples but you can use any fruit you have in the house. Add cinnamon and sugar to the fruit, mix and pour it into the middle of the pie dough. Fold edges over and spray with coconut oil. Bake at 400-425 for 20 minutes or until golden brown. These were gone in 3 minutes and my girls were so proud of their work!
