One of our families favorite traditions for Christmas morning is our homemade monkey bread recipe. We use to make it with convenient instant biscuits in a can, but as we became more aware of all of the junk, harmful preservatives and chemicals we knew we needed to make monkey bread from scratch! So after lots of experimenting we came up with the best monkey bread recipe! You'll love the fabulous old fashioned monkey bread recipe flavor with the beautiful pull apart breakfast bread with a sticky, sweet covering.

I loved my mom's eggnog recipe growing up, but then everyone realized it wasn't really save to drink raw eggs. I tried the storebought versions, but they tasted so nasty! The artificial flavor was just no the same as a delicious glass of homemade eggnog! So I started messing around with a homemade eggnog recipe where the eggs would be cooked that still had that wonderful nostalgic, made-from-scratch taste! Our family slurps up this home made egg nog. Some of us like this eggnog recipe non alcoholic served warm (me), some like it the traditionally chilled version (my husband), and my kids love it blended with ice for a fun eggnog milkshake version. No matter your preference, this diy eggnog is sure to hit the spot!
