Waffles - Ah I love it!! They are so delicious, so kid friendly and are so popular.. And as with the other foods, when made at home you can make them healthier and there are so many choices... I got this recipe from here and it is surely a keeper.

Wheat Germ and Molasses Bread–Eggless Bakes

Quick Breads - as their name says there are quickly made breads. They are so versatile and come in many tastes from sweet, savory, spicy etc. They can be enjoyed for tiffin, breakfast, makes perfect for travel and lunchbox. I got this recipe from here. This recipe has a unique taste, aroma and flavor from molasses.

Eggless Pistachio Sponge Cake

I have started to have an appreciation for Sponge cakes which are very light and airy and as the name as "Spongy". This cake is easy to put together and tastes delicious.. I got this recipe from here and made some changes. I have taken pictures in 2 different light settings, so they look slightly different. Cakes usually come with a whole lot of calories and I have been looking for bakes that are lower in butter and fat. Also I have used whole wheat pastry flour instead of all purpose flour here.. Trust me it was so spongy, airy, light and delicious!!!

Anadama Bread

For this month's HBC (Home Bakers Challenge), we had four breads to choose and I chose this Anadama Bread which was little different style of making than the regular bread and also had the awesome flavor from Molasses. Anadama bread is a traditional yeast bread of New England in the United States made with wheat flour, cornmeal, molasses and sometimes rye flour. The recipe is chosen from here. The original recipe used All purpose flour, but I have tried to make it little healthier by using Whole Wheat pastry flour.

Vegan Mango Muffins w Hudson Oil

I try a lot of products to keep giving my family healthy and tasty foods.. Some products are well designed and make life so much easier. I got an email from Hudson to try out their Canola oil and was very happy to accept it. They sent me a liter of their oil in a very well packed case. I wanted to make a cake or a muffin and use this oil. When I first opened the main lid, I really liked the next spill proof lid that came along (see image below) and then when we pour the oil out, it is so much easier to not have to worry about spilling around the sides. Very efficient lid as regards to spill proof. I used this oil and made the Vegan Mango muffins and it was a very big hit among my family members. Delicious muffins and the house is filled with mango flavor and aroma. These muffins have very less fat and a lot of healthy stuff like whole wheat pastry flour, flax seed. However this does have quite a bit of sugar. You can reduce the sugar to 1/2 cup if desired. This sweetness was perfect for us. I got this recipe from here and I absolutely love it.
