...we use and recommend heat resistant rubber spatulas in a ton of our recipes. We recently bought these and really like how sturdy they are! We also love how much better they stir and combine ingredients and scrape down the sides of the pan!


Breakfast and Dessert

Strawberry Banana Smoothie

Creamy, delicious and so refreshing, a great way to start the day!

The Best Banana Bundt Cake

Since you bought bananas for the smoothie, might as well make cake too!

I would love to hear if you try any of these! Leaving a comment and star rating really helps other home cooks and bakers as well!
