Cherry Hazelnut Brownies (Gluten Free)

August 2, 2013

In just a few minutes, we’re making the drive down to Virginia to move my sister in to her new apartment down there, so I’ll keep today’s post pretty brief.  I’m excited for a weekend down near D.C.!

Now, these brownies.  I’ll mostly let the pictures speak for themselves, but ohhh these might be my new favorite brownies.  Super fudgy, with a warm hazelnut flavor (SO good), and a bit of freshness from the cherries.  Such a perfect way to showcase those beautiful summer cherries!!

Banana Yogurt Breakfast Cake

This cake is so easy to make, and there’s no need to worry about frosting it all fancy.  I frosted it with some vanilla greek yogurt mixed with cinnamon.  Just fill it, stack it up, and put a nice dollop on top.  Delicious, healthy, and easy.
