Hello Sweet friends!~
I hope your Thanksgiving was happy–full of family, friends and lots of delicious food! Mine was! I love this time of year and I think it is perfect that we have a season focused on gratitude and giving thanks, right before Christmas. What a fitting way to prepare our hearts to truly celebrate our Savior Jesus Christ. I am looking forward to the next few weeks, and have goals to take time to love and nurture those around me more. One way, that I nurture my family is through good wholesome food. As you know I have a son with celiac disease, so he can’t have gluten. This makes it tricky for me to bake for my family. A lot of times, I have to make separate things for him, but these Kodiak Cinnamon Sugar muffins are a baked good that my whole family can eat and they all love! Makes life a little easier for me too!
Have you heard of Kodiak Cake Pancake and Waffle mix? I got a big box of it at Costco, and then found that they make a gluten free one that I could buy on Amazon (here is the link to a 6 pack). This mix is totally whole grain and has a good amount of protein per serving, making it a great choice, if you are watching your carbs, but still want baked goods! This is not a sponsored post, I just wanted to share with you a “short cut” way to make home baked muffins that are actually healthy too! My boys LOVE them and I keep some in the freezer all the time for a quick breakfast or snack when needed. Enjoy!
Try the Kodiak Banana Muffins recipe here too! YUM
PS—-If you have leftover turkey, try using it in this Cream Cheese Chicken Soup. We had this last night for dinner and it was fantastic!! Pure comfort food!
