Every time bananas start turning brown at our house, even just a tiny bit, my husband asks me if I'm going to make banana bread! Like him, I do adore the moist tenderness of banana bread, but this time, I had something else in mind.
I think that maple and banana flavor go together really well. I've already shared with you a version of Banana Maple Buttermilk Bread. This time I thought muffins would be perfect to make and share with my little no sugar eating grandson.

Have you ever planted garlic? It is so easy to grow. If you purchase a bulb of garlic from the grocery store, each clove in that bulb is a seed and will grow into a garlic plant. All you have to do is plant it in the soil, root side down and water it and soon it will begin to grow!
When your garlic starts growing, (and sometime the bulb will start to sprout before you have even planted it), bright green stalks will grow up out of it. These may look like green onions to you, but what they really are is "garlic scapes," and they are edible and delicious, especially if you love the taste of garlic!

Since purchasing a Bread Machine, I have quickly become a convert of using the dough only setting. This allows me to mix up the bread dough from any recipe I can convert to fit into my machine, and then to shape the loaves or rolls however I would like. I've done buns, rolls, pizza dough and all sorts of things. For our recent St. Patrick's Day Dinner, I made delicious dinner rolls and since it was in honor of the Irish, I had to do potato rolls!

I am always posting ways to preserve food here on the blog. Our family eats what I preserve. Unfortunately, I hear people all of the time say that they don't know how to use the thing that they have preserved or they are afraid to eat it or that their family won't eat it. That is just wasteful! So, I thought that I would write some posts periodically that talk about using the food that you preserve.
Today I'm going to really lean into the zero waste idea as I tell you about using the leftover cranberries from canning cranberry juice as well as the candied orange peel I shared a recipe for!
