🍊I had a bag of fresh cranberries in the fridge

🍊I had a bag of fresh cranberries in the fridge so these Healthy Cranberry Orange Muffins were the perfect way to use them up!
Search ‘cranberry muffins’ on happykidskitchen.com or DM me for the direct link!
These fluffy muffins are full of flavor and packed with whole grains. I use applesauce and Greek yogurt to keep them super moist, but I’ve tested dairy-free, vegan, and gluten-free versions that all work out well too (subs in the full post).
If you don’t want to use a food processor pulse the cranberries, you can easily chop them by hand too.
Fun recipe to make with little chefs (or have a peaceful baking moment like I did and do it alone 😆).
Enjoy! 😊💕

🍏🥧 Apple Pie Stuffed Biscuits…flaky dough

🍏🥧 Apple Pie Stuffed Biscuits…flaky dough with a crunchy cinnamon top filled with sweet caramelized apples. Seriously a dream come true!
Only a handful of ingredients and so easy for kids to help make too!
Would be great as a breakfast/brunch pastry or for dessert (with a little vanilla ice cream perhaps? Yes please!).
Here’s how to make them:
2 large apples, diced very small (I used one honeycrisp and one Granny Smith). Can peel if you want to.
1 tbsp butter, 1/4 cup brown sugar or coconut sugar, 1/4 tsp cinnamon, and tiny pinch salt
1 can biscuits
1 egg, beaten
1 tbsp sugar mixed with 1/8 tsp cinnamon (for top)
Preheat oven to 375. Line a sheet pan with parchment.
Melt butter over medium heat. Add sugar, apples, cinnamon, and salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until apples are soft, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate to cool.
Split each biscuit in half. Press the bottom half into an even circle and use your fingers to make the top half a little bigger and more even thickness.
Once the apples aren’t piping hot any more. Fill each bottom biscuit dough with a couple heaping spoonfuls of the apple filling leaving a small boarder around the edge empty. Place the remaining circle of dough on top and press around the edges with your finger tips then use a fork the press and seal around the circle. Cut a small vent in the top.
Brush the tops with the beaten egg then sprinkle generously with the cinnamon sugar.
Bake until very golden brown, about 15 minutes. Allow to cool for 5 min then enjoy!

I made these today and had to share them with you ASAP. Let me know if you think they need a permanent place and formal write up on my blog!

🎁Kids Cooking Gift Guide —Part 3: 7 to 10 yea

🎁Kids Cooking Gift Guide —Part 3: 7 to 10 year olds!
I focused on cooking subscriptions and kits in this video, but there are many more ideas (next step knives, cookbooks, waffle makers, and more) linked in the full gift guide.
All gifts listed and linked on my blog post on HappyKidsKitchen.com (it’s right on the homepage). Feel free to DM me if you want the direct link.
Gifts that get kids into the kitchen or encourage an interest in cooking are the best gifts (IMHO 😉) Why? They promote learning, help kids build confidence, encourage adventurous eating, and keep kids entertained!
