If you tried to find any recipes the last day or two, you might’ve noticed my blog was just a blank white screen. No errors, no “oopsies this page isn’t here”, just a straight up white page. That’s also what we saw when I tried to […]

Pumpkin Scones with Dried Plum https://www.hiddenfruitsandveggies.com/2014/09/21/pumpkin-scones-with-dried-plum/ https://www.hiddenfruitsandveggies.com/2014/09/21/pumpkin-scones-with-dried-plum/#comments Mon, 22 Sep 2014 01:57:05 +0000 http://www.hiddenfruitsandveggies.com/?p=2370 Despite my best efforts, fruit continues to not be one of Josh’s favorite things.

Pumpkin Pancakes with Apple Pie Topping https://www.hiddenfruitsandveggies.com/2014/09/05/pumpkin-pancakes-with-apple-pie-topping/ https://www.hiddenfruitsandveggies.com/2014/09/05/pumpkin-pancakes-with-apple-pie-topping/#comments Fri, 05 Sep 2014 11:00:46 +0000 http://www.hiddenfruitsandveggies.com/?p=2317 I voted, and it’s apple season now.  And pumpkin season.  And pancake season.  Basically, it’s the most wonderful time of the year (obviously tied with pumpkin spice latte season. Obviously.) I’ve never understood why people restrict pumpkin to fall.  Even in the fall, I normally use it out of a can (and I imagine that’s […]

Strawberry Chai Shortcake https://www.hiddenfruitsandveggies.com/2014/05/21/strawberry-chai-shortcake/ https://www.hiddenfruitsandveggies.com/2014/05/21/strawberry-chai-shortcake/#comments Wed, 21 May 2014 11:00:07 +0000 http://www.hiddenfruitsandveggies.com/?p=2005 Strawberry shortcake is definitely one of my favorite desserts.  Is there anything better than a crumbly biscuit, sweet strawberries, and whipped cream?  Apparently, the only way to top it is to add chai to the mix.  It’s an incredible combination I never, ever in a million years would’ve thought of if it wasn’t for tea […]

Lemon Ricotta Pancakes with Strawberry Sauce https://www.hiddenfruitsandveggies.com/2014/05/12/lemon-ricotta-pancakes/ https://www.hiddenfruitsandveggies.com/2014/05/12/lemon-ricotta-pancakes/#comments Mon, 12 May 2014 11:00:13 +0000 http://www.hiddenfruitsandveggies.com/?p=1977 I have few philosophies in life, but my number 1 motto is “Always say yes to pancakes”. Very, very rarely will a pancake let you down, because a crappy pancake is still a pancake and pancakes are a miracle food of deliciousness.  They’re perfect for brinner after a bad day, breakfast on a special day, […]

Almost forgot about this month’s Recipe Redux.  I even thought to myself yesterday “Ohh, have to remember to post that!” and then bam.  Immediately forgot the date.  Does that happen to anyone else?  You feel like you have so much more time left in the month, and then it’s practically over.  To add to […]
