🍪 Comment LINK for the Healthier Pumpkin Chocolate 🍪 Comment LINK for the Healthier Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe!! Vegan, whole grain (or easy to make gluten-free), mixed up in one bowl, and packed with pumpkin goodness! … I had to test this recipe 6 times to figure out the perfect texture. I wanted a cookie that was not too cakey but also had a good amount of pumpkin in it (most pumpkin cookies have maybe 1/3 cup and that’s not a pumpkin cookie if you ask me). Anyways, they are not as chewy as a classic chocolate chip cookie but not like eating a cake in cookie form (Although I do have a recipe like that is really good. Check out the Healthy Pumpkin Cookie with Maple Glaze on my site). These would a be a great addition to a Fall party or just as an after school snack or treat. Let me know if you give them a try!😊💕 . . #pumpkincookies #thanksgivingdessert #healthycookies #vegancookies #cookingwithkids #bakingwithkids

🍉 🦃 Fruit can be fun!! It’s been a tradition in ou 🍉 🦃 Fruit can be fun!! It’s been a tradition in our house over the past few years to make a fruity gobbler for my kids’ school Thanksgiving breakfasts. But it would be great as a centerpiece for the kids table at Thanksgiving or a fun thing to bring to any event around thanksgiving time. All you do is skewer fruit in a pattern, leaving a spot at the top for a strawberry. We used grapes, melon, watermelon, clementines, and blueberries, but you can really use any fruit you like. The turkey is a pear (cut the side it’s laying on so it sits flat) with mini chocolate chips for eyes, a sliced of a clementine for the nose, and a piece of pear cut into sticks for the legs. He’s pretty cute, right? 😂 Besides taking a little time to skewer all the fruit it’s a pretty easy thing to make. Have the kids help! (Just be careful of the pointy skewers.) Are you going to try it??
🍁 Comment LINK for the recipe!! Happy Friday! It’ 🍁 Comment LINK for the recipe!! Happy Friday! It’s the perfect time to plan a cozy fall baking moment this weekend. These Soft Pumpkin Cookies with Maple Glaze are whole grain, lower in added sugar, and come together in just one bowl — truly the ideal treat to make with kids. They’re tender, light, and fluffy… basically little portable pieces of pumpkin cake. The maple glaze makes them extra special, but you can skip it or stir in chocolate chips if that’s more your vibe. They’re also easy to adapt to be gluten-free, dairy-free, or egg-free, so everyone can enjoy. Let me know if you give the recipe a try!! … #cookingwithkids #bakingwithkids

🥧 So many awesome recipes in this month’s line up 🥧 So many awesome recipes in this month’s line up of What to Cook with Kids! We are still celebrating all the seasonal fall produce including squash, apples, and pears. Giving back to those in need is something we should focus on all year, but in November many organizations have special food drives and opportunities to help serve meals. Thinking about cooking to serve others could even mean cooking a batch of muffins for a neighbor or friend. Thanksgiving also creates a special opportunity for kids to get into the kitchen. Many of the recipes on this list are great for making with kids to help contribute to a special family meal. What recipe would you want to make first this month?? #cookingwithkids
