Blue Ribbon Pecan Pie

 

I love to make pies!  I love rolling out the dough, filling it up with something delicious and the smell that comes from the oven.  I never made a pecan pie before so when I saw it in the newest cookbook Hometown Christmas by Gooseberry Patch, I couldn't wait to make it.  This recipe is so simple, it only takes a few ingredients, and you can whip it up in no time at all.  You'll find all kinds of wonderful recipes in Hometown Christmas.  It features Breakfast with Santa, Sledding Party Warmers, Old-Fashioned Christmas Dinner, Open House...You're Invited, Tree-Trimming Treats, Slow-Cooker Comfort Foods, and Coming Home for Christmas.  Not only will you find lots of festive recipes there's also merry making tips and warm holiday memories.

Muffins are the perfect little treat and I love how versatile they are.  This recipe from Gooseberry Patch's newest cookbook 101 Farmhouse Favorites  is one that's streusel topped, filled with apple butter and oh so delicious!  In this new cookbook you can choose from Break of Day Breakfasts, Garden-Fresh Soups & Salads, Family Dinner Favorites, Blue-Ribbon Desserts and Classic Country Canning.  What I love about this book is that every recipe has a big, beautiful picture.  Once I saw the Sweet Apple Butter Muffins I couldn't wait to make them.  They're quick, easy and the perfect little treat for the kids to grab on their way out the door! 

Sticky Buns from Gooseberry Patch

 

I am so grateful to be an Early Bird reviewer and it's time once again to feature another amazing cookbook from Gooseberry Patch.  Whenever I get one of their cookbooks I always think that "it's" my favorite, but then I get a new one and that becomes my favorite!  Weeknight Dinners is broken down into days of the week and each day has a theme:  Meatless Monday; Tuesday is Tex-Mex Night; Wednesday is Italian Night; Comfort Food Thursday; and Just for Fun Friday!  How cute is that?  Now you'll never be wondering what's for dinner!  Of course I started off with the Sticky Buns, but I also made quite a few other recipes too.  I always plan our menus for the week and this book has been a lifesaver! 

Slow-Cooker Chocolate Pudding Cake

 

 

Once again I get the pleasure of reviewing the newest cookbook from Gooseberry Patch; Slow Cooking All Year Round.  Having four kids involved in extracurricular activities there are plenty of nights that I turn to my slow cooker to have dinner ready for us when we return home.  I'm sure a lot of you can relate!  When I review a Gooseberry Patch cookbook I always like to give something "extra" to go along with the book.  It's my way of saying thank you for reading Flour Me With Love.  This time I knew the perfect gift would be a slow cooker and Hamilton Beach has graciously sent me the Deluxe Set & Forget 6 Quart Digital Slow Cooker and they are also offering one to you.  You can win the cookbook and slow cooker!

The Best Scones Ever!

 

I think scones are one of the most versatile recipes.  I love that you can add your favorite ingredient and put your own twist on it too!  When I saw this recipe in The Christmas Table, from Gooseberry Patch, I knew I wanted to try it.  This is a simple recipe where you get to choose what you'd like to add.  You can add chocolate chips (like I did), raisins, cherries, etc...the possibilities are endless!  The Christmas Table is the latest cookbook from Gooseberry Patch and yet again it is wonderful.  It's filled with so many amazing recipes, little tidbits of holiday traditions, ways to decorate and the lovely clip art too!  They have graciously offered one of you a chance to win one and I've thrown in a little something too.  Make sure you enter the contest below!
