    chocolate peanut butter muffins

    It's back to school time. And I really really really don't think much about school starting until after Labor Day. Because back in MY day, school didn't start until after Labor Day.

    But, I know that for myself and many others school already started and the reality has to set in at some point and time. And that means the inevitable school lunch making.

    I love having some grab and go lunches. This lunch is simple and easy to make. I freeze the muffins, I freeze cups of yogurt and place both in the lunch bag in the morning. By lunch, the muffins and yogurt have thawed.

    Simple and easy just like these peanut butter chocolate muffins. There's a pattern going on here...

    • A mouthwatering gluten-free Bisquick peach cobbler The cobbler is served in a rectangular glass baking dish. The golden brown, slightly crispy crust covers the entire top, with visible crumbles and cracks. The crust is made using a gluten-free Bisquick mix, giving it a slightly lighter color compared to traditional cobbler crusts. The sweet and juicy peach filling peeks through the crust, with vibrant orange and yellow hues. The peaches are perfectly cooked, soft but still retaining their shape. The filling is generously sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar, creating a glistening coating. The aroma of warm peaches and baked goods wafts from the dish, inviting anyone nearby to take a bite. It's a delightful summer dessert, promising a blend of fruity sweetness and a hint of spice.
