Cranberry Raspberry Baked Apples (Sweetened with Maple Syrup!)

January 1, 2020 by crystal@wholefedhomestead Leave a Comment

This may seem like a simple dish to make, and don’t get me wrong it is… but I’ve actually been perfecting these fruity baked apples for OVER TWO YEARS! I’ve finally nailed it, which is why I’m finally sharing it! Sorry for the wait, and for teasing you all these years over on Instagram saying […]

Fluffernutter Chocolate Peanut Clusters with Homemade Maple Marshmallows

December 11, 2019 by crystal@wholefedhomestead Leave a Comment

Imagine salty peanuts and bouncy homemade vanilla-maple marshmallows tossed with just enough chocolate to hold them together! These chocolate peanut clusters are hands down my favorite holiday treat. Karl’s too! “Fluffernutter” chocolate peanut clusters are named after the childhood favorite peanut butter and marshmallow fluff sandwich. I’ve actually never had one of those, but I […]

Gluten-Free Zucchini Bread Recipe: Double Chocolate and Lemon Poppyseed!

August 19, 2019 by crystal@wholefedhomestead Leave a Comment

When I made these loaves of gluten-free zucchini bread, (actually one is zucchini bread and one is yellow squash bread!) I didn’t intend to post the recipes here… but they were just too phenomenal not to share! I planted seven summer squash plants in the garden this year, and there are only two of us… […]

Homemade Raspberry Jello Recipe {From Scratch with Real, Healthy Ingredients}

February 9, 2019 by crystal@wholefedhomestead 2 Comments

My grandma was a farmer and an avid gardener- she always had a flock of chickens and at least one goose that always chased us down her driveway. She had a gorgeous raspberry patch, and I remember her freezer was always full of Cool Whip containers filled with homegrown raspberries. And she made the best […]

{Crustless} Maple Pumpkin Pie

November 13, 2017 by crystal@wholefedhomestead 2 Comments

I love pumpkin pie- especially for its simplicity and rustic-ness. While I don’t know the real history of the pumpkin pie, I can only imagine that everyone from the earliest American Indians to the original homesteaders have been baking forms of pumpkin custard for a long time. Pumpkin pie’s roots go deep, and I love […]

Plum & Crabapple Fruit Leather Recipe

September 21, 2017 by crystal@wholefedhomestead 2 Comments

This has been the year of the fruit leather, and my favorite so far is this plum and crabapple fruit leather… it’s sweet and tart, with a gorgeous color, plus it is very pliable and tender (a great quality for fruit leather, as some can end up as tough as… well, leather). I’m on my third […]

Maple-Sweetened Peanut Butter Balls Recipe

April 13, 2017 by crystal@wholefedhomestead Leave a Comment

Peanut butter covered in chocolate is one of life’s fine pleasures. And when that peanut butter is mixed with the earthy, smokey, sweet flavor of maple sugar, it’s pretty darn incredible. These maple peanut butter chocolate candies are actually modeled after one of my old favorite holiday treats, the glorious Reese’s Peanut Butter Egg (why are […]

Spiced Canned Apple Slices Sweetened with Honey {Canning Recipe}

November 9, 2016 by crystal@wholefedhomestead 5 Comments

Did you ever discover something new that totally changed your world, and you can’t believe you went all this time never knowing about it? And then you feel silly because the thing you didn’t know existed and that changed your life was a jar of essentially homemade canned apple pie filling? No? Just me then… […]

Salted Honey Caramels

September 18, 2016 by crystal@wholefedhomestead 6 Comments

If there’s anything I’m a connoisseur of, it’s likely caramels. It’s my favorite flavor of anything and everything, anywhere. I will without a doubt always order the caramel-flavored whatever it is. A couple of years ago, I discovered that I could make caramel… and I got really good at it. I make the best salted caramel […]

Honey Sundae: The Best Ice Cream Treat

April 10, 2016 by crystal@wholefedhomestead 2 Comments

Leave it to a beekeeper to drizzle golden sweet honey on top of ice cream! Honey pretty much goes on everything though, so you can’t fault me. Meat? Yes- honey-glazed ham, honey bbq wings. Vegetables? Yes- honeyed carrots, honey dijon dressing on cobb salad. And now, ice cream. Our beekeeping club has a booth at […]

🥔🎉 I haven’t finalized this year’s potat 🥔🎉 I haven’t finalized this year’s potato list quite yet. If you have an absolute favorite variety, I’d love to hear it! Here’s what I have so far:
.
German Butterball: this is our favorite potato! A must-grow for sure. It’s an all-purpose variety, and it’s a gorgeous grass-fed butter yellow inside.
.
Papa Cacho: the most amazing red fingerlings, digging these looks like pulling red bananas out of the dirt because they’re nearly a foot long! They are so fun!! Delicious too and gorgeous rosy color inside (pictured above).
.
Upstate Abundance: this is a new variety for me from Row 7, who specialize in good-tasting varieties. It’s also supposed to be high-yielding and fairly disease-resistant.
.
Norkotah & Burbank Russets: we’ve been growing both of these for years. I was hoping a winner would emerge and I’d just grow one of these types, but so far that hasn’t happened so I keep planting them both! They are good but I’d love a russet type that blows me away.
.
What say you- what are your must-grow potatoes?!

🧅🎉 I “winter-sowed” some more onion seed 🧅🎉 I “winter-sowed” some more onion seeds today (and showed the whole *very easy* process in my stories!). This is a fantastic technique if you don’t have a grow light set up or don’t want to babysit any seedlings! Mother Nature does most of the work.
