Caramel Apple Cake

Jan 17, 2019 · 8 Comments

Caramel Apple Cake is a simple and delicious 3 ingredient cake perfect for a quick dessert or potluck dish.

You only need 3 ingredients and 5 minutes to get this tasty Caramel Apple Cake ready for the oven. It's a perfect quick and comforting dessert!Hi everyone! Today I’m sharing another version of a “dump cake”, which is absolutely my favorite type of quick and easy cake. I talk more about this type of cake over on my Pumpkin Dump Cake post, which is one of my most popular recipes so be sure to check that one out as well!

You only need 3 ingredients and 5 minutes to get this tasty Caramel Apple Cake ready for the oven. It's a perfect quick and comforting dessert!I love to make a homemade dessert that my family can enjoy throughout the week but unless it’s easy, it usually doesn’t happen! This cake recipe was created as a little experiment of mine to see if I could make a cake with a lot of flavors using just three ingredients. Good news: it worked! 

Easy 3 Ingredient Caramel Apple Cake - Perfect for a quick dessert or even breakfast, this versatile "dump cake" will be a hit!How to make caramel apple cake

This recipe could not be more simple! All you have to do is dump two cans of caramel apple pie filling in a greased 9×13 dish, top that layer with one box of cake mix straight out of the box, and cover with pats of butter. Bake and enjoy. That’s it!

You only need 3 ingredients and 5 minutes to get this tasty Caramel Apple Cake ready for the oven. It's a perfect quick and comforting dessert!The apple caramel combo is such a classic and the cake mix/butter topping takes it to another level. It reminds me of a crumb topping, without having to cut butter into flour and mix up a bunch of spices (although I enjoy those cakes too). It’s great for cold winter nights, apple season in the fall, Thanksgiving, or even a new take on an apple pie. I love to top it with a little whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon. Served with ice cream is also a winner!

You only need 3 ingredients and 5 minutes to get this tasty Caramel Apple Cake ready for the oven. It's a perfect quick and comforting dessert!Variations & Notes

If you’re looking to lighten things up, try using plain sugar free apple pie filling instead of caramel. I’ve made it this way and it’s still just as yummy. You could also follow this recipe but using different pie fillings to try out some different dump cake variations. Peach, cherry, or blueberry are all delicious. The cake mix flavor can also be switched up. For example, yellow cake mix will work if you cannot find the golden butter that I call for in this recipe. You could also use a spice cake mix with your apples for extra fall flavor (it’s amazing)! I’ve also seen versions using cherry pie filling with chocolate cake mix. The possibilities of this easy cake are endless!

You only need 3 ingredients and 5 minutes to get this tasty Caramel Apple Cake ready for the oven. It's a perfect quick and comforting dessert!I hope you’ll give my Caramel Apple Cake a try!

Hummingbird Cake

Aug 15, 2018 · 6 Comments

Similar in taste to carrot cake or spice cake, this Hummingbird Cake combines traditional and tropical flavors like banana and pineapple and is topped off with a classic buttercream frosting. 

Similar in taste to carrot cake or spice cake, this Hummingbird Cake combines traditional and tropical flavors like banana and pineapple and is topped off with a classic buttercream frosting. Today I’m sharing a scrumptious southern recipe for Hummingbird Cake, which dates back to 1978 when it was submitted to Southern Living Magazine. As far as I know, no one knows where the name comes from but it is a southern gem! Over the years I’ve had this cake in different variations and have heard it called different names. I’m willing to bet if you try it you’ll recognize the taste too! Hummingbird cake is very similar to carrot cake, but instead of carrots and raisins inside, you have bananas and pineapple.

Similar in taste to carrot cake or spice cake, this Hummingbird Cake combines traditional and tropical flavors like banana and pineapple and is topped off with a classic buttercream frosting. The addition of mashed ripe bananas and juicy pineapple make this cake extra moist and delicious. My family appreciates a less sweet cake, so I use some whole wheat flour in my version, making it taste a little more like a banana bread instead of a lighter, spongier cake. But don’t worry, the buttercream frosting ups the sweet factor for those of us that are into that (raises hand). For decorating the cake, I tried out a rustic look by scraping the sides a bit to reveal some of the layers. It’s cute, but I’m glad I had extra frosting to add to my piece on the side later! Frosting for the win!

Similar in taste to carrot cake or spice cake, this Hummingbird Cake combines traditional and tropical flavors like banana and pineapple and is topped off with a classic buttercream frosting. Making a cake from scratch can be intimidating, but once you do it a couple of times you realize that the benefits far outweigh the extra trouble of combining your own dry ingredients. To me, homemade cakes always taste richer and more dense than a box mix. That doesn’t mean that I don’t also love and use box mixes! My most popular recipe on the blog uses a mix and you can make fabulous muffins with a box as well!

Similar in taste to carrot cake or spice cake, this Hummingbird Cake combines traditional and tropical flavors like banana and pineapple and is topped off with a classic buttercream frosting. I have to admit, Molly Yeh has really been inspiring me with my baking lately on her new Food Network show Girl Meets Farm. She makes the prettiest cakes! I’ve been following her blog forever and being a food blogger myself it’s super motivating to see all her success.

Similar in taste to carrot cake or spice cake, this Hummingbird Cake combines traditional and tropical flavors like banana and pineapple and is topped off with a classic buttercream frosting. One thing that sets this cake apart is that it has a great texture due to the nuts baked inside. I used pecans but you could also use walnuts. I’ve heard that toasting your nuts before they go in the batter makes a big difference in taste but in the interest of time I did not do that. Maybe I’ll give it a try next time and see! If you don’t like the crunch in your cake you could also leave them out entirely. Another added bonus is that this cake smells wonderful while it’s baking!

Similar in taste to carrot cake or spice cake, this Hummingbird Cake combines traditional and tropical flavors like banana and pineapple and is topped off with a classic buttercream frosting. Even though most Hummingbird Cakes that I’ve seen use a cream cheese frosting, I really enjoy a simple buttercream for this cake. Making your own frosting, even if you use a box mix for your cake, is an easy way to up your game. It takes just 5 minutes to whip up and is positively heavenly!

Easy (10 Minute) Banana Pudding

Jun 29, 2018 · 17 Comments

Never wonder what to bring to a potluck or cookout again with this easy banana pudding. It takes just 10 minutes to make and will soon become your most requested dish!

Easy 10 Minute Banana Pudding - image with textIt’s almost independence day here in the US and today I have the perfect recipe for your upcoming celebration: Easy 10 Minute Banana Pudding! The recipe was shared with me by a wonderful nurse I worked with in a previous job and I’ve been loving and sharing it ever since. (Hi Donna Lou if you’re reading!)

This banana pudding is extra creamy, with that delicious cookie and banana layer that takes you back to your childhood. I have always been a big fan of banana pudding, both with a traditional meringue topping and without, but this recipe makes getting that awesome flavor in your mouth super fast. So fast that I’m going to break it down for you here with a step-by-step!

Step 1: Slice 3-4 bananas and place in the bottom of a 9×13 dish.

Easy 10 Minute Banana Pudding - banana slices in dishStep 2: Add mini wafer cookies in the bottom of the dish with the bananas.

The brand name cookies for these are the Mini Nilla Wafers and I wish I could find a more healthful (less artificial) version of these but so far no luck there. Let me know if you find any! You can also use the regular size instead of mini, but I love how the mini cookies are close in size to the banana slices. It gives it a nice texture that way. Cover most, but not all of the dish (like pictured).

Easy 10 Minute Banana Pudding - banana slices and mini nilla wafers in dishStep 3: In a large mixing bowl combine two packages of instant vanilla pudding and four cups of whole milk. Mix until thickened.

You could certainly experiment with other kinds of milk but whole milk is going to make your pudding rich and delicious. And for the pudding, you can definitely find healthier and even organic brands instead of the Jello brand if you’re into that like I am!

Easy 10 Minute Banana Pudding - pudding mixtureStep 4: In the same bowl add one container of extra creamy whipped topping.

Again, I’m wishing there were some healthier options for the this ingredient but the Extra Creamy Cool Whip makes a big difference in the creaminess factor here! As a side note, my favorite non-junky brand of whipped topping is definitely Tru Whip. The taste is perfect and it has no artificial ingredients.

Easy 10 Minute Banana Pudding - pudding mixture add whipped toppingStep 5: Mix until smooth.

Smooth like yacht rock. Is anyone else as obsessed with that Sirius XM channel as I am??

Easy 10 Minute Banana Pudding - pudding mixture combined with whipped toppingStep 6: Pour pudding mixture on top of the banana and cookie layer.

Easy 10 Minute Banana Pudding - pouring mixture over bananas and wafer cookiesStep 7: Spread it all around to completely cover the bananas and cookies.

Easy 10 Minute Banana Pudding - spreading mixture to cover bananas and cookiesStep 8: Add another container of extra creamy whipped topping as your top layer and spread it out.

Easy 10 Minute Banana Pudding - spreading more shipped topping over all the dishStep 9 (Optional): To make it fancier you can add a few cookies and crumbs to the top. Or depending on the season, you can add some festive sprinkles.

Mint Chocolate Matcha Smoothie

Jun 6, 2018 · 10 Comments


So it’s the end of Kindergarten for my oldest son and boy has it been a whirlwind! I’m excited to be with him all day and not have to sign so much stuff and return library books and help with homework and maybe (big maybe) sleep past 6:30am! But, I will have my hands full with two rambunctious little boys 24/7!

Speaking of being busy, smoothies have really come in handy for that. I can make them as a snack or a dessert for me and my kids and I almost always have something decent on hand to throw in there.

This week I dreamed up this mint chocolate matcha smoothie, based on a seasonal one they’re serving at the cafe in my gym right now. I love this smoothie because it’s like a healthier version of mint chocolate chip ice-cream!

What is Matcha?

Matcha is a big thing in the healthy living community right now, and for good reason. It’s packed with antioxidants and helps speed up metabolism. It also aids in the detoxification process. Matcha is a version of Japanese green tea that is grown and processed in a unique way. Before it’s harvested it’s moved to shade for about three weeks which is said to increase the amount of amino acid it contains.

The Smoothie.

I use matcha green tea latte mix from Trader Joe’s for this recipe. It’s tasty mixed with hot water or iced too. It tastes very similar to a green tea latte from Starbucks so if you like those, you will love this drink mix. If you don’t have a Trader Joe’s nearby I’ve seen several versions at the grocery store and there’s always amazon.

mint chocolate matcha smoothieThis smoothie is simple to make and contains just five ingredients:

  • bananas
  • milk
  • matcha green tea powder
  • dark chocolate chips
  • peppermint extract

All you have to do is add all the ingredients to your blender and blend until smooth. Both my kids really like this smoothie as they are both big mint chocolate fans and the taste of the green tea is not overwhelming. You could, however, add extra matcha powder if you want a stronger taste. Also, if you want your smoothie to have this pretty green color, add your chocolate chips at the end. That way they won’t start turning the smoothie brown while it’s all blending.

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins

Sep 6, 2017 · 4 Comments

You only need three ingredients to make the most easy and delicious Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins. Everyone will think they’re made from scratch!

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins

Who else loves pumpkin everything during the fall? These easy Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins are moist and fluffy with pumpkin and all the flavors of fall, with extra sweetness thanks to the melty chocolate chips. They’re a portable sweet treat that’s perfect anytime and the best part is they only contain 3 simple ingredients!

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins

Ingredients for Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins

These muffins could not be any easier to make. All you need is:

  • Spice Cake Mix
  • Canned Pumpkin
  • Chocolate Chips
  • Optional: coarse sugar or additional chocolate chips for topping
Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins

How to Make Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins

To make the muffins, you simply dump the ingredients into a bowl and mix. You don’t even need to use a mixer. Just a wooden spoon works great. But don’t over mix because I find that pumpkin, much like banana, can get a little gummy if mixed too much. Then just spoon the mixture into a muffin pan (can be lined with muffin/cupcake tins or not), and fill each cup to the top. You can swirl the top with a spoon to make it prettier if you like. The way they look going in is pretty much how they will look coming out. If you like, sprinkle the tops with some coarse sugar or a few extra chocolate chips to make them look fresh from the bakery. Bake for 20-25 minutes at 350 degrees and let cool. It’s that simple. Your family will thank you for these! 

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins

I make these muffins several times every fall season, and I’ve been asked for the recipe so many times that I’ve started writing it on the container when I take them somewhere. They are delicious and taste like they must be from scratch, but no. That’s just not how I roll!

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins are an ooey, gooey taste of the pumpkin season! This is also the perfect recipe to let the kids help with. I hope you love them as much as we do!

Pig Pickin’ Cake

May 2, 2017 · 23 Comments

pig pickin' cake
One of my favorite get-togethers with friends and family here in the south is a good old-fashioned pig pickin’. When I graduated from both high school and college this is the kind of party I wanted. Pig pickins are usually in someone’s back yard and include a pig being roasted in a pig cooker, beer, and a bunch of delicious southern sides or “fixins”, (hence the name of my blog…see what I did there? hehe) and a bunch of homemade desserts, including a pig pickin’ cake.

pig picking cake
A pig pickin’ cake is an orange and pineapple flavored yellow cake you will commonly find at a pig pickin’, and I have to imagine it started being called this because it is always a staple at this kind of cookout. (Not because there is pig in it, like you may wonder if you’ve never heard of it!)

pig pickin cake
A pig pickin’ cake is such a favorite because it’s light and spongy and doesn’t seem too heavy after you’ve already eaten a ton of food. I have a couple family members that really don’t enjoy frosting but they like this cake because the frosting is light. It’s fruity and delicious and if you’ve never tried one I hope you’ll make it.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 butter recipe yellow cake mix
  • 11 oz can mandarin oranges
  • 4 eggs
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 2 8 oz containers whipped topping extra creamy
  • 1 20 oz can crushed pineapple in juice
  • 2 3.4 oz boxes instant vanilla pudding

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
  • Grease 2 round cake pans.
  • From can of oranges reserve liquid and 8-10 slices for garnish.
  • Mix remaining oranges, cake mix, eggs, oil, and vanilla with electric mixer until smooth.
  • Pour the mix equally into the two pans and bake for 25-30 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
  • While the cakes are baking, whip together both containers of whipped topping, the pinnapple with juice, and both boxes of pudding with a wooden spoon or similar. Set aside.
  • When cakes are finished baking and cool enough to handle, turn them out onto separate plates, poke a few holes in both layers with a knife, then pour the juice from the mandarin oranges over top of the cakes. (It makes it them more moist.)
  • When cakes are fully cooled spread frosting on the first layer, top with the second cake layer, and cover with more frosting on the top and sides. Add remaining oranges on top for decoration. 

Notes

This recipe makes a lot of frosting because I hate running out of frosting when icing a layer cake! Don't be afraid to lick the spoon...a lot. Enjoy!
