You can make numerous variations to this recipe. We frequently add poppy seeds to the batter just before filling the muffin tins. Or, we set pieces of fresh or frozen fruit on top of each muffin before baking. The versatile lemon glaze can be brushed on just-baked pound cake or diluted to make lemonade, too.

Ashland Bread

Ashland Bread came to us via a friend's aunt who sampled a loaf at a fair in Ashland, Oregon. This 100-percent whole wheat loaf contains no dairy products, eggs, or oil. We love to toast Ashland Bread, which brings out the flavor of the wheat, sesame seeds, and sunflower seeds.

Cowgirl Cookies

This recipe came to me from one of our very first bakers, Lenna Gosselin, passed to her from a grandmother, Ruby Mae Shields. Originally the cookies were called "Cowboy Cookies," but the feminist in me changed the name. Oats, cashews, and butterscotch chips make them chewy, nutty, and sweet. Thank you, Lenna!

Peanut Butter Brownies

I am among the many who crave the sweet-salty combination of chocolate and peanut butter. Sometimes I go to the cupboard with a spoon, which I dip into the peanut butter jar. Then I drizzle chocolate on top. Desperate times call for desperate measures. These chewy peanut butter bars, studded with chocolate chips, address the issue head-on. A very hot seller at the bakery.
