Matcha Smoothie Bowl

Food should be a feast for the senses and this stunning breakfast bowl is made visually vibrant with Matcha powder. This nutrient dense green tea powder gives you a boost of energy and anti-oxidants in every teaspoon. The color is intense, but the mild vegetal flavor pairs with all manner of ingredients and doesn't overwhelm. Here we've blended pineapple, ginger and spinach until velvety and garnished with fruity toppings, but customize the ingredients to suit your taste with crunchy nuts or creamy yogurt, just don't forget the Matcha!

Grandma's Swedish Cardamom Bread

This holiday treat comes to us from our friend Erica, who graciously agreed to share her family recipe with the blog. The bread it makes is rich and sweet, with the cardamom and orange zest adding just the right amount of spicy flavor. We'll leave it to her to talk about the history...From Erica: My Swedish Grandma, Esther Priscilla Wiberg, passed this recipe onto my mother who passed it on to me. I make it every Christmas as a braided wreath, adorned with Holly leaves and berries secured with a red velveteen ribbon. My friends and neighbors pay homage to Grandma Esther every holiday by devouring a slice of homemade bread with butter or homemade cranberry sauce. Last year, after moving to Montana, my husband and I delivered the bread to our new neighbors via horseback through the snow.

Gingerbread Donuts

These cute mini donuts use our Gingerbread Spice to bring holiday flavors to the breakfast table. We couldn't decide between two different garnishes in our recipe testing, so we included them both. Dunk them in the sticky maple gingerbread glaze or roll them in gingerbread sugar, according to preference. Can't decide? We'd advise you to split the difference and make some of each, like we did!For those who might be discouraged from trying doughnut recipes due to the frying involved, we are relieved to say that these were baked. After much experimenting, we decided the yeast donuts were best, and everything else came easy. Easy enough to, say, make a double batch and garnish your eggnog or hot cider for an extra special treat.

Warm Pumpkin Butter

15 min

After finding a lovely pumpkin for Halloween decor, wonder no more about what to do with it. This homemade recipe ensures your pumpkin won't go to waste. It yields a lot, but the pumpkin butter can be stored in the fridge for weeks and freezes well. It's perfect for enhancing future pancakes, waffles, and holiday drinks. I used Kashmiri Garam Masala for a sweet, spiced flavor. The spices simmer with piloncillo, similar to brown sugar, intensifying the pumpkin's natural sweetness. This straightforward recipe adds an autumnal twist to everyday treats.

Honeygram Latte

At Fulcrum Coffee, on your way to the iconic Space Needle, Kelsey has whipped up a treat: the Honey Graham Latte. It's a luscious espresso shot, crowned with frothy oat milk and graham cracker crumbs, reminiscent of childhood teddy grahams. This latte is a creamy, nostalgic hug, thanks to the honey's sweetness and our unique Cinnamon Toast Spice.

Poudre Douce Pumpkin Latte

6 min

Right in the heart of downtown Seattle, we were savoring Fulcrum Coffee's Spiced Latte. We kick it off with a bold shot of espresso, mix in a pumpkin puree-infused syrup, add some sugar, and sprinkle in our Poudre Douce spice. The result? Well, it's not your average spiced latte. It's not cloyingly sweet, but it's incredibly smooth. This blend goes beyond your usual cinnamon kick. The fusion of ginger and allspice takes it to the next level, delivering an indulgent taste that's hard to resist.
