World Famous BAnana Breakfast Bread, Cooking On The Fly With BA

World Famous BAnana Breakfast Bread Recipe

“BA’s gonna be world famous BAnana  breakfast bread” is finished and cooling. Chili is cooking. The house is as clean as it’s ever going to be. Fresh flowers cut (my mom taught me that). Landscaping done to the best of our ability thanks to Irma. Now …. We wait. Parental units… Any second now. I am going to take a min. to blog out about my soon to be world famous BAnana  breakfast bread recipe

My BAnana Breakfast Bread Recipe…

This recipe is for a denser bread. It will not be light and fluffy.  I can’t stand breads that crumble a part.  I think this recipe resembles a pound cake consistency. John is diabetic and I can’t stand breakfast, so I am always looking for a way to meet the needs of these two issues.  I invented this bread as a quick breakfast for me and a tasty “treat” for him. If you follow it they way I wrote it, it is pretty darn healthy. Omit any of the seeds or nuts to your liking. I use them to up the fiber, protein and nutrients.

Preheat your oven to 350 and prepare your cake/ loaf pans. I use butter and flour and 2 9 in. baking pans.

Ingredients my BAnana Breakfast Bread

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup of rolled oats
  • 12 teaspoon salt 
  • 12 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla extract (or to preference)
  • 12 cup butter, softened
  • 34 cup brown sugar, packed (I use 1/4 less due to living with a diabetic”
  • 2  room temperature eggs
  • 3 medium bananas, ripe & mashed (about 1 cup)
  • 2 tablespoons of chia seeds
  • 1 tablespoon of pumpkins seeds (or not)
  • 2 scoops of vanilla plant based protein powder
  • 1/4 cup dark chocolate chips
  • Walnut pieces to preference

Jonah J. Jenkins Roasted Beet Recipe

The Jonah J. Jenkins roasted beet recipe. BA is serving up organic roasted beets. Easy as 1,2,3.
The Jonah J. Jenkins roasted beets. I feel organic is much better for this dish.

Roasted Beet Recipe

Jonah J. Jenkins Roasted Beet Recipe to the rescue! I’ve been reading about beets lately and it seems I should table my dislike and figure out how to like them.  As I suspected, garden beets taste DRASTICALLY different than you can crap you buy at the grocery store. I hit my peeps up on fb for their fave recipe. Mr. Jonah J. Jenkins for the grand slam!!! It sure is great to have friends that cook and can inspire you!!

Jonah J. Jenkins came through with the grand slam with this easy 2 step roasted beet recipe  :

  • Do not peel them. Wash the beets and chop off the stem/greens. You can use those later for smoothies, or sautéed with olive oil and garlic!
  • Rub each beet with olive oil
  • Bake them whole in the oven (350-375) for about an hour

Using a fork, when you are able to push into the beets, with little resistance, they are done. Let the beets cool, slice them into bite sized chunks and put them into a Tupperware container, to enjoy when you are ready.  You can also freeze them for a later time. 

**** I did try freezing them.  I thawed my Jonah beets, tossed them with walnuts, balsamic vinaigrette and added some chevre! Oh my gosh, so tasty and that led to my Beet Tower recipe!  Check out my blog;  BA’s BEET TOWERS

The Perseverance Rule

 

The Perseverance Rule a blog about finding Outsider Art
All Thing BA Art, where you can shop for Whimsy Art by BA, Natural Healing Stones Jewelry, Crochet and Pottery

 

The Perseverance Rule, Outsider Art is about not giving up!

The perseverance rule is a very valuable rule to learn and follow. I think I have pretty much gone through life outside of a box.  As a younger person, I was never really in, with the “IN” crowd. I might of had a brief moment where I fit into a genre in high school but that was mainly due to the music I was listening to. Other than that, I kinda just moved to my own beat… I think. hahaha, There is that memory issue!

The Journey to Outsider Art

Anyway, lately I have noticed that Natural Healing Stones Jewelry is morphing, or more to the point, I am morphing and my box is not budging. I am now not only into Jewelry but am delving into glass fusing, pottery and art. OH MY!

The art thing took me by surprise really. Most of you don’t know this but my first two years in college, I was an art major. The first year was great. My professors were digging what I was putting out and I thought I was the bomb. Those were the ONLY classes I was making A’s and B’s in, I thought I had found my niche.

Then year two came, the year I decided to be politically outspoken. I didn’t much care for an overly liberal comment from a professor and had the gumption to say so. From then on my art work was deemed D/F worthy. WHAT?!?! That is how I discovered, I do art for myself. I decide what I like and don’t like.  I realized I didn’t much care for creating to please someone, just so that I could get a good grade. Then I had my accident… hahaha, another blog. Ahhh, the synchronicity of it all.

FIRSTS

Firsts, BA writes her first blog. Prepare yourselves! FIRTSTS a first blog by B.A.

Kinda crazy cool that we can have a last and never run out of firsts. Hmmm, as my coffee takes hold, I do see the flaw in that thinking but I choose to look at the world of firsts and see all of the adventure it holds.

FIRSTS, Blogging.

This is a first for me and starting with the first, I would like to apologize for my grammar! And… I just noticed through the help of apologize and grammar that this thing comes with spell check. Whew. It’s completely insane, that as I get older, these two things are vanishing from my brain cells at an alarming speed.

Anyway, I digress, back to firsts. Blogging, It’s a total first for me. I have been putting it off, thinking that; nobody wants to hear me ramble on and I’m pretty sure it’s damn near impossible to figure out what’s going on inside of my head. However, I seem to get some sort of personal enjoyment out of having my say in things or more to the point, just saying anything. So, here it is, the first BA blog.

Adventurous spirit, filled with the need to create, the stubbornness to do what she pleases (against all kinds of crazy odds) and now has the gumption to be heard.

Holy Flopping Torpedoes, may the force be with you and may you get to experience a first today! <3

P.S I will pledge to hold back on the dot, dot, dot (…) For some insane reason my brain feels the dot dot dot has way more power than a comma.

  • A first could be that you check out my All Things BA Art Shop!
  • Have ya done something out of the ordinary? Do ya want to do something out of the ordinary?  Go for it, this is your sign to do a FIRST!  Drop a line here in the comment or check me out on Facebook to discuss!!!
