Savory Oat Skirlie

January 23, 2022 by TheRunawaySpoon Leave a Comment

I had a little cookbook years ago titled something like A Little Book of Scottish Recipes. I assume it must have been a gift or maybe I picked it up in a gift shop on a trip to Scotland. I don’t know what happened to it, but I don’t seem to own it anymore. It had a recipe for skirlie (though honestly, I’d forgotten the name) and it became a regular dinner for me when I was … [Read more...] about Savory Oat Skirlie

Cranberry Oatmeal Muffins

The holidays are filled with so much sweet and sugary (not that I’m complaining), so sometimes it’s nice to have a treat that’s seasonal and festive, but not as cloying or overly sweet.

This bread has the lovely, … [Read more...] about Guinness and Oatmeal Quick Bread

I’m sticking to my simple comfort food theme here.  This recipe is no innovative or new, just simple delicious.  You’ll find similar versions in all sorts of community cookbooks I am sure.  It’s the type of 9 by 13 dessert you might take to a church social or a big family gathering.  The cake is delightfully moist and hearty with a nice caramel … [Read more...] about Caramel Oatmeal Cake with Broiled Frosting

Oatmeal Get Up and Go Muffins

October 3, 2012 by The Runaway Spoon 5 Comments

When the reality of the new school year and the end of summer hit, having a quick, portable breakfast on hand can be a serious boon.  And these muffins fit the bill.  I often find muffins labeled “healthy” to be leaden gut bombs, but these are light and tender, thanks to the magic of buttermilk.  Oats provide a nice, sustained energy level and soaking them in the buttermilk … [Read more...] about Oatmeal Get Up and Go Muffins

I'm P.C. I think I am like most people. Somewhere in the middle between food snob and food schlub. Just being in the kitchen makes me happy. I live, mostly in my kitchen, in my hometown of Memphis, Tennessee.
