Orange Sour Cream Pecan Cake

Posted in Baked Goods, Cakes by anne {uni homemaker}

I got a bag full of cuties (oranges) from Kimi the other day. There were so many of them that I didn’t know if we were going to consume them in a timely manner. We’re not fruit people. Plus, they weren’t all that sweet (more of a reason why we’re not fruit people) so I decided to bake with them. Luckily they’re small so I used four of them in this recipe. That’s half the bag, whew! I hate waste. Now I just need to figure out what to do with the other half of the cuties. If you like orange and pecans, this will be a new favorite.

Cinnamon Ricotta Banana Cake

Posted in Baked Goods, Cakes by anne {uni homemaker}

I finally finished up the last couple of black bananas —yay! They were really ripe but that’s OK. The recipe calls for ripe bananas! This cake has all my favorite ingredients —bananas, cinnamon, ricotta, and chocolate chips. I added the pecans in here to give it texture but you can totally leave it out if you are not a nut person.

Had it for dessert after dinner and it was the perfect ending to the meal. Of course, you can have it before dinner or for dinner if you choose to. I won’t judge. 🙂

Pumpkin Maple Coffee Cake

Posted in Baked Goods, Cakes by anne {uni homemaker}

Chris is a big fan of pumpkin. And every year, I bake a pumpkin pie around the fall time. This year, I thought I change things up and bake him a coffee cake instead. He loved it so much; he’s not willing to share it. If you’re a big pumpkin fan, this is a good recipe to try.
