HAPPY EASTER!

This year we opted NOT to do the egg hunt and basket thing... I know, I know. And guess how thrilled our kids are!! Instead of the traditional Easter-y stuff we are all getting brand new, shiny bikes! I think everyone will love that more than candy and small trinkets (in the long run anyhow)

Big-Breakfast-Sunday is a tradition here, Easter is no exception. This week I made Buttermilk Blueberry Breakfast Cake and thick cut bacon. YUM!

creaming

Batter was thicker than I thought it would be hence "cake" being in the title. It was more like a biscuit, a surprise but still tasty!

I rarely sift, instead I whisk.

before baking (that is sugar on top, to make a nice crust!)

The recipe called for 35 min in the oven but additional 10 may be necessary. I did an extra 14.

Time to eat!

Mine seemed a little dry. But still delish for a first time!

The verdict: Adults loved it, kids did not. I think the cooked fruit is what the little ones did not love. Will I make it again? yes. They can eat frozen pancakes next time!! Any kind of berry would be very good in this dish. I would add a little more sugar to the mix and possibly a dollop of whipped cream

On a side note- my sister is here for a visit!! We only get to visit a couple of times a year so we make the most of it. That is code for "stay tuned, shenanigans are to follow and I will defiantly blog about it"!

HAPPY EASTER everyone! Enjoy the family, the day off and hopefully a little bit of beautiful spring weather! Eat a chocolate bunny and some peeps for me, a candy filled Easter morning is a tradition I kind of miss...
