The Blueberry Muffin Bread is outstanding! I made it vegan and gluten-free with my usual substitutions, along with Forager Greek-style in place of the sour cream. Will definitely be making on repeat! #BakeandTake
Made the Crispy Star Bars. Amazing! They taste better than the Star Crunch. It was very easy to make; my 5 year old helped!
Made the moist pumpkin bread from the one crafty pan cook book and I will be making it all pumpkin season long now! Titling this bread as moist is not a lie and it was a hit amongst all ages. So good!
Made the boxed cake mix bars from the one crafty pan cook book! Perfect for a birthday celebration and so easy to make. Highly recommend!
I made the Lemon Brownies for a baseball potluck and they were a big hit. The recipe was easy to follow and used fresh easy to find ingredients. Everyone loved that they were a fresh treat that wasn't often seen too.
chocolate cream pie bars (page 154 in One Crafty Pan):
My mom called these "the best dessert she's ever had". They are truly incredible!
no-bake lemon cheesecake (page 148 in One Crafty Pan):
my grandma is a lover of all things lemon, and so i made these for her birthday dinner. everyone enjoyed - such a nice summer dessert!
The Snickerdoodle bars are the best! Don't sleep on these. They are so much easier than making actual Snickerdoodle cookies, though those are tasty too, but the bars are delicious and everyone always loves them.
I made the banana bread as bars- I made one that was frosted and left one plain. OH MY GOSH!! This recipes is amazing!! Such good flavor and so moist. This is now my go to recipe! You need to try it!
I accidentally bumped the pan taking it out of the oven, so these Soft & Chewy Mall Cookie Bars don't look quite as good as they could, but that's okay because they are absolutely delicious! This is my third bake for the Skip the Scoop Summer Edition, and I feel like my limited baking skills are improving. But perhaps not my clumsiness. Anyway, I used Melt vegan butter, Bob's Red Mill egg replacer, and King Arthur GF measure for measure flour. Unfortunately I couldn't find the vegan "m&m's" I was looking for, so I used Unreal dark chocolate peanut gems, which are similar to peanut m&m's. I like how the colors look, and they are one of my favorite candies, so I'm not sad. Thanks again for another super easy treat a self-proclaimed non-baker like myself can make and enjoy!
The recipes are the best! The brownie has become my go-to recipe, and the chocolate chip cookie bars are so good. I want more! Bar cookies are my favorite and the book does not disappoint. #skipthescoop
Chocolate chip cookie bars..a yummy basic recipie
Monkey bread style pretzel bites..not pretty like millissas but boy are they delish
Had overriped bananas, so you know I had to make the best pan of banana bread!
Cake Batter Rice Krispie Treats, made festive for the 4th! So good and so easy!
Not a pretty photo (compared to the cookbook), BUT the French toast bake is one of our family's favorite recipes out of the book! So easy to make, creates a good amount of breakfast, and is extremely delicious!
