Jesus will always loves you💝 "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son; that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life💓For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved💗 John 3:16-17💜
In someways you remind me so much of my mom. Of course you are way younger but she passed away 30 years ago. She did a lot of the things that you do but on a very small scale. I love how you take care of your family and work so hard to give them treats, that are good and good for them. Thank you so much for taking great care of your family! Thank you for sharing with us!
Your kids are wonderful! You are teaching them life skills and independence. I wish more parents were like you. I tried to teach my kids how to take care of themselves. My younger son is autistic, but he can do his own laundry, clean the house, and cook a meal with little fanfare. This kind of self-confidence is important for them. Maxwell is turning out to be a great cook.
That is amazing I have two autistic children both girlies.Teaching them life skills is important. If no one has told you that you are doing a great job Mamma you are.. much ❤️
Thanks for showing some of your farm animals between recipes! It’s nice to see that your recipe videos are not just you in the kitchen but everyone is included!
I am so happy you discussed the requirements nutritionally for children. So many parents complain about the morning and children’s temperament and how difficult they are. When I ask about what they are feeding in the morning they usually look at me sideways😊
I am 70 ,have never made cereal but I like the idea to make for great grand children,Thank you the way you explain everything.Do not want all those dyes and chemicals
Her hair is one thing I like as well. Nice and curly. Mine is straight as a board. Wouldn't hold a curl if I put it in a roller for a week. LOL. I'm jealous
Another great simple recipe is for Irish sweet soda bread, Irish fruit soda bread 400 Grams bread flour 15 grams bicarbonate of soda Pinch of salt Put all dry ingredients through a sieve into a bowl. 100 Grams raisins or Sultanas (other dried fruits would work well) 60 Grams caster sugar 330 millilitres buttermilk (plain kefir is fantastic substitute if you cannot get buttermilk) Method: Preheat oven to 180. Sieved dry ingredients into large bowl Add sugar & fruit Mix together all dry ingredients. Add wet ingredient: Using your hands add the buttermilk (Kefir) slowly mixing as you pour Do it slowly & Don’t over mix, it should be sticky but not wet. Tip onto a surface and bring it together in to a round shape ( add a little flour if needed but not much) Top tip = you can do all of this in one bowl. Cooking: Get a metal baking tray / sheet & place some baking paper on. Place your bread round on the tray pat gently with flat of your hand so it’s about 3 inches thick. Using a sharp knife cut a cross on the top about half way through (traditionally it’s called letting the fairies out / free) Bake at 180 for 25 minutes Take out & flip over & bake for further 10 minutes. Bread is cooked through when you tap the bottom & it sounds hollow.
I just made the cereal for the first time. I am gluten intolerant, it may not have been perfect but this was so delicious. I never thought I would be able to eat cinnamon toast crunch cereal again. Thank you so much for all you do to help teach us the old ways. Blessed be to you and your family.
Ruth Ann, I’ve just watched your Homemade Cereal Alternatives! AND watching you spread your sourdough on the parchment paper, made me think….. I have switched to an offset spatula to spread it. I originally bought it for doing cake decorating. It has helped soo much with keeping the parchment paper from lifting up while you’re spreading😊🎉 Kerrie (Ohio)
I make my kid’s granola as well. I stir protein powder into it as I make it to add some much needed protein for all my guys. We don’t eat it as cereal though. We use it with yogurt, with apple sauce, cottage cheese, fruit or just as a snack.
Thank you for the wonderful video! I'm going to make the baked oatmeal! Yummy! I loved watching Maxwell! It made me smile watching him pour the cinnamon instead of putting the spoon in to measure. He did a great job! ❤
Watching from the UK, You’ve inspired me greatly to do my own food, so far butter, cheese, crackers, bread and now I’ll try cereal .. I also do some of your meal recipes too, thank you so much Ruth-Ann .. Enjoy your beautiful daughters wedding 🎉
I am the same about breakfast. A couple cups of coffee is a must, but I could do without eating until @ 11:00, lunch would then be @ 3:00, and supper at 8:00 or 9:00. Especially during the summer when we are outside until dark-thirty, which is 9:30-10:00PM here. I enjoy breakfasts foods, and don’t mind cooking them, I’m just not hungry in the morning.
Hello RuthAnn and sweet family! I never hardly ever bought store bought cereals when my kids were younger. Your breakfast recipes looked delicious and healthy. It’s always great to see the children helping in the kitchen. I hope the wedding goes smoothly and congratulations to the families. Have a blessed weekend!
Amish Baked Oatmeal is my absolute favorite! My mother received the recipe from a friend who married a former Mennonite. It takes me back to my childhood. I remember my first time tasting a commercial cereal on a trip to visit cousins in Georgia. It was fruity pebbles and I thought we were having dessert for breakfast. My little eight year old mind was blown away with sugar, artificial flavors and coloring😅
I wash my dishes as I go. So by the time we sit down and eat dinner there are only dinner dishes to go into the dishwasher. Plus it keeps your counter clean to continue prepping. Now if I can only get my adult girls to clean as they go lol. Love your videos. I recently retired and find scratch cooking actually exciting. I’m a custom cake decorator so I was always more into baking than cooking. But I’ve learned so much from everyone and you’re using ingredients you already have bought and paid for. Example homemade sour cream, I was skeptical but omg it’s delicious and so much fresher tasting! I started a cookbook for my kids so they have old and new recipes etc. but I never thought about doing this when my mom and grandma were around now all those recipes not many have. So I’m asking my oldest brother who loves to cook if he remembers the recipes etc. So each time I find or create a recipe I immediately put it into my cookbook. This is an online cookbook that emails my kids and siblings those recipes I did. Plus they can insert their recipes too. It can be printed out professionally or with a home printer.
A glass of milk is a great choice. My doctor told me many years ago that it is the best and quickest way to raise your blood sugar. As you said the protein keeps your blood sugar up until you are able to eat.
I am so glad I found your channel! I'm going to be trying the baked oats and granola recipes and I made your Mennonite White Bread 2 loaf recipe. The loaves were beautiful! Thank you for your fine videos. It's a pleasure to see the kids actively participating in the chores and cooking. ❤
Maxwell did a great job! I think I will have the grans do the same next visit. Baked oats is such an open canvas. I add jams I want to use up. I also canned a bunch of cranberry apple orange relish that is great in it. Also pineapple zucchini or frozen shredded zucchini is a great addition to get a little green in breakfast.
What is the difference between sour dough discard and just regular sour dough? I've never worked with it at all but here this often. Always enjoy your videos, Enjoy your family and this happy time.
Your Baked oatmeal recipe,so delicious ♥️ I used 1/2 c. Pure maple syrup, which I will cut back to maybe 1/3 next time. It is my go to sugar. And took your suggestion of stirring in raisins. What a treat. I also like your encouragement to people starting in the kitchen. For time spent, can choose better ingredients even towards more organic, non gmo choices. $$saved too!!♥️♥️♥️
I have been making homemade meals since I started watching you last month and started canning. And I am constantly looking for things to can. I have found I am able to make actual good food for dinner using jars I have canned in about a half an hour after work. That never would have happened without the canning. I actually cannot wait to get back into the kitchen to see what else I can put up. You really have made a huge impact on my life and the health of my family. So thank you for every video you put out. And I always have a jar of your crackers in the pantry now too! Best wishes to the bride and groom! Please don't worry about us, we will be here when your world gets a little back to normal.
Thank you Ruthann and family!🙂 I'm so with you about breakfast! My dad was the same way. The best I can do first thing in the morning is a piece of toast and, maybe, a bit of fruit. The granola looks especially yummy! Squirting milk to the cats always brings a smile to my face.☺️ I understand about those starting off with cooking at home. Sometimes it seems like there's more prep. than there's hours in the day. For me at 70, it takes a little longer. 😉 Blessings! 💜
I am so glad to get these recipe to help make some tasty, healthy breakfasts. My husband loves granola so I am sure it will become a favorite. Good luck with the wedding and enjoy each and every part of it, making memories!
Thank you SO much. I will try the Cinnamon Toast Crunch. Unsure how to communicate my gratitude as I am now ready to try one more new recipe. Sourdough sandwich bread is an absolute hit at my home!!
Another wonderful video!! I've been mulling over homemade cereal for YEARS!! I have a little booklet from the German Baptist bulk food store that's just full of cereal recipes. I have made baked oatmeal, and we love that! I've also made lots of granola, which also makes a great snack. I've made a savory granola that has a little pinch of cayenne in it that we like, too. But your cinnamon toast crunch cereal is definitely on my bucket list. I'm praying for you and your daughter, and all the families involved in the wedding. I hope it's a beautiful family time for everyone!
Thank you for giving me the courage. I'm working towards this life for my 3 boys and I. Since I've come across your videos, you've helped my confidence in knowing that this is the right direction!
What a wonderful gift you are giving by allowing us to see you make food and or projects with your family. I like that they are all involved in some way to get the job done. More families should follow this type of lifestyle to prep their children to become very productive adults. Thanks and blessings
God is good! Thank you for this video!! Enjoy this wedding week!! I loved all the time I got to spend with my mom prior to my wedding. She did so much work for me! I’ll forever be thankful! God bless you and your family!
Thought you might like to try these British Flapjacks, British Flapjack recipe. Basic recipe. Each item can be switched according to your needs, for example Butter= coconut oil, vegan butter, Tallow, lard, so long as it is a hard fat. Sugar = any sugar you use is fine ( not powdered) Remember that oats are a complex carbohydrate & keep you fuller for longer great for growing children (always hungry) These make a fantastic nutritious breakfast bar, snack, tea time treat. Replace any of the ingredients with whatever you like so long as you stick with the basic recipe. Ingredients needed: basic * 165g Butter / hard fat - Unsalted * 125g Soft Brown Sugar - Brown Sugar. Coconut sugar * 250g Oats - Do not use Jumbo Oats they are too big. * 60g Sweetener* Honey set or runny honey,Maple Syrup is also fine. golden syrup.molasses. * Salt - Just a pinch Preheat the oven to 180c fan assisted. Grease and line the base and sides of a square baking tin 8 inch (20cm) x 8 inch (20cm) with baking parchment. Step 1: Melt the butter, sugar, and honey* in a large pan over a very gentle heat until all the sugar and butter have melted. Step 2: Mix the dry ingredients Oats, salt, (cinnamon , ginger/ mixed spice) nuts fruit together in a large bowl, make a well in the centre. Step 3: Pour in the melted butter and sugar liquid. Step 4: Mix thoroughly until everything is well combined. Step 5: Using the back of a spoon start to spread the mixture in the tin. Step 6: Spread the mixture evenly and firmly ( really pushing down) to avoid the Flapjacks turning out crumbly. Step 7: Bake in the centre of the oven for 20 - 25 minutes ( depending on how much crunch you want) or until baked and golden brown in colour. Remove from the oven and leave to cool a little before partially slicing the top into sections ( I use my metal bread scraper for this) divide into equal portions this makes it easier to slice through into bars when the Flapjacks have cooled completely. Step 8: Only when they are completely cold, should you slice them into individual bars. * Tip 1 - Do not over heat the butter and sugar the Flapjacks will become hard and difficult to eat. * Tip 2 - wait until the Flapjacks have cooled completely before you slice into individual bars. * Tip 3 you can add additional ingredients for flavour = shedded coconut, finely chopped dried fruit, finely mixed nuts, chocolate chips, For example finely chopped dried apples & cinnamon, ginger, mixed spices, a spoonful of multi seeds. Play with the mixture & make it your family favourite. * Tip 4 - once cooled & sliced you can dip one end in chocolate. Or top with candied fruit, caramel nuts, Enjoy ❤️
Ok, that granola looks amazing...and simple. Yea for simple! I have tried baked oatmeal before, but was not a fan...but I will give yours a try, because I have learned you really have terrific recipes. So yep, those two are definitely getting tried! Blessings to you and family as you celebrate this week! Marie
I love to listen to you talk! You always seem to have given deep thought to what you say! Your voice is pleasant to for listening. God bless you. I live in south central Texas
Love your videos! You are so right: those store-bought cereals are LOADED with additives, that turn you into an addict for those cereals! I’m looking for a much healthier version of granola cereals. Those are my favorite. Maxwell did an AWESOME job prepping & baking the cereal! ❤️
I really really really appreciate your insights on blood sugar in the mornings! I'm definitely going to start having my kids drink milk when they wake up! Thank you so much!
OMG I just made your cereal recipe it is way better than store bought..my kids are going to be so happy ..we stopped buying cereal about a year ago they didn't like that idea but now once they taste this 😍thank you so much for the recipe
I always love what you share and the encouragement for others to try to add to their skill set. I have worked outside of my home for 42 + years and I love being in the kitchen! I don’t even mind the dishes and I don’t have a dish washer.😂 Simple, home cooked meals is right up my alley! I hope you take time off for your daughter’s wedding!! We’ll be here when you get back!!!
Wow so happy I found you . I love this ways to life ! From all my passé life to now. I always love the home cooking and preparation. ❤ Happy Easter have fun at the wedding. I’m new to your home teachings . I make the cinnamon buns a perfect great job. I love them . ❤ thank you 🙏
I love how you have all the kids help cook and do chores. It is important to give them responsibility in the family. It also helps them grow and be social. We could as a family and work asa family. It gives everyone a sense of accomplishment. Enjoyed the video. Hope all goes well with the wedding and enjoy your celebration. Congrats to the soon to be couple.
Blessings to you and your family on this happy occasion and yes a wedding is happy .also I love your videos they have helped me even at almost 70. Never to old to learn ❤😊
You are such an encouragement to me. My four children are completely grown and we are learning to do life with a smaller household but the time and nutrition and health economy is still very important to me. God bless you

Have a wonderful wedding. Never mind a video you need to step back and enjoy the wedding. Blessing on the new bride and groom.
Maxwell looks so proud. Great job Maxwell.
Thank you for the homemade version of some my favorite cereals.
I always considered my time in the kitchen as saving money, better quality and showing of the love I have for my family
Me and my granddaughter love watching you and you sweet family! Thank you for sharing!! ❤️

RuthAnn, I LV your curly hair - so jealous! I've been a Cosmetologist since 1961 and would love to cut a head of hair like yours....
Awe. Thanks!!!!
Isn’t it beautiful? I’ve always loved it as well.
Her hair is one thing I like as well. Nice and curly. Mine is straight as a board. Wouldn't hold a curl if I put it in a roller for a week. LOL. I'm jealous
Awe, have a blast at the wedding & don’t worry about us, we’ll still be here when you return. Enjoy the moment ❤
Wonderful recipes! With your sourdough cracker recipe, try an offset spatula to spread. It would really help you. God bless you!
Watching from Australia. I love your videos.
Welcome!!!
God’s blessing on the newlyweds and all of you amen
Congratulations to you all on the Wedding 💒
Another great simple recipe is for Irish sweet soda bread,
Irish fruit soda bread
400 Grams bread flour
15 grams bicarbonate of soda
Pinch of salt
Put all dry ingredients through a sieve into a bowl.
100 Grams raisins or Sultanas (other dried fruits would work well)
60 Grams caster sugar
330 millilitres buttermilk (plain kefir is fantastic substitute if you cannot get buttermilk)
Method:
Preheat oven to 180.
Sieved dry ingredients into large bowl Add sugar & fruit
Mix together all dry ingredients.
Add wet ingredient:
Using your hands add the buttermilk (Kefir) slowly mixing as you pour Do it slowly & Don’t over mix, it should be sticky but not wet.
Tip onto a surface and bring it together in to a round shape ( add a little flour if needed but not much)
Top tip = you can do all of this in one bowl.
Cooking:
Get a metal baking tray / sheet & place some baking paper on.
Place your bread round on the tray pat gently with flat of your hand so it’s about 3 inches thick.

Bake at 180 for 25 minutes
Take out & flip over & bake for further 10 minutes. Bread is cooked through when you tap the bottom & it sounds hollow.
I just made the cereal for the first time. I am gluten intolerant, it may not have been perfect but this was so delicious. I never thought I would be able to eat cinnamon toast crunch cereal again. Thank you so much for all you do to help teach us the old ways. Blessed be to you and your family.
Good job Maxwell!!!
Ahhhh, the simple things, I just love that milk soaked kitty just waiting by the cow....
I don’t think I’ve bought cereal in 15 years!! Same I try to make it myself 😊
Love your videos!!❤
All the very best for your daughter’s wedding. Thank you for the great breakfast ideas.
Ruth Ann,
I’ve just watched your Homemade Cereal Alternatives! AND watching you spread your sourdough on the parchment paper, made me think….. I have switched to an offset spatula to spread it. I originally bought it for doing cake decorating. It has helped soo much with keeping the parchment paper from lifting up while you’re spreading😊🎉

Those baked oats look amazing! Yummy yum yum! Great job Maxwell making the granola!!! Looks delicious! X
I have cooked from scratch most of my life. Our son learned this also. I make granola also. Thank you for the videos, enjoy the wedding !
Thank you for helping us eat healthier. God Bless you and yours.
I make my kid’s granola as well. I stir protein powder into it as I make it to add some much needed protein for all my guys. We don’t eat it as cereal though. We use it with yogurt, with apple sauce, cottage cheese, fruit or just as a snack.
Well she's got tons of milk... LOL
Great idea it is also good for immunity boosting. Thanks for your suggestion. Much ❤
Thank you for the wonderful video! I'm going to make the baked oatmeal! Yummy! I loved watching Maxwell! It made me smile watching him pour the cinnamon instead of putting the spoon in to measure. He did a great job! ❤
Ruth Ann, love your encouragement to cook from scratch and include the kids.😊
You are a wonderful teacher! Thank you so much for sacrificing your time to help me.
Watching from the UK, You’ve inspired me greatly to do my own food, so far butter, cheese, crackers, bread and now I’ll try cereal .. I also do some of your meal recipes too, thank you so much Ruth-Ann .. Enjoy your beautiful daughters wedding 🎉

Thank You
I’ve so been wanting to try baked oatmeal. There are only 2 of us though. I’ll try a super small batch. Thank you RuthAnn!

I just love how all your kiddos always seem to serve with a smile and joy❤️ they are so sweet. You are doing a great Job raising them!
I love you're videos. Thank you!
Your Baked oatmeal recipe,so delicious ♥️ I used 1/2 c. Pure maple syrup, which I will cut back to maybe 1/3 next time. It is my go to sugar. And took your suggestion of stirring in raisins. What a treat. I also like your encouragement to people starting in the kitchen. For time spent, can choose better ingredients even towards more organic, non gmo choices. $$saved too!!♥️♥️♥️

Love how you get the younger children involved in the process.
Great video enjoy your daughter’s wedding 💒 🎉😊❤
Thank you for the recipes. Your family is so blessed. We are blessed cuz you are sharing. Hugs from Washington State. Say hi to the family. God bless
Thank you SO much. I will try the Cinnamon Toast Crunch. Unsure how to communicate my gratitude as I am now ready to try one more new recipe. Sourdough sandwich bread is an absolute hit at my home!!

Thanks RuthAnn, many Blessings ❤
Thank you for giving me the courage. I'm working towards this life for my 3 boys and I. Since I've come across your videos, you've helped my confidence in knowing that this is the right direction!
What a wonderful gift you are giving by allowing us to see you make food and or projects with your family. I like that they are all involved in some way to get the job done. More families should follow this type of lifestyle to prep their children to become very productive adults. Thanks and blessings
It’s crazy how it took only one generation to loose all these skills. Here’s to bringing them back!
For sure!!!
🥂
God is good! Thank you for this video!! Enjoy this wedding week!! I loved all the time I got to spend with my mom prior to my wedding. She did so much work for me! I’ll forever be thankful! God bless you and your family!
Thanks! I'm going to try the granola.
Congratulations to your Daughter and New husband. May the Lord bless them.
I love your videos too! Thank you!
The cereals look delicious. Thanks so much for sharing ❤
I use a tablecloth with every meal. That's how it was when I was growing up and that's what I taught my children. Just makes a table look classy 🙂
Yes an extra layer of formality
Good job Maxwell
I love watching you and your family❤ God's peace and love to you all

Step 5: Using the back of a spoon start to spread the mixture in the tin.
Step 6: Spread the mixture evenly and firmly ( really pushing down) to avoid the Flapjacks turning out crumbly.
Step 7: Bake in the centre of the oven for 20 - 25 minutes ( depending on how much crunch you want) or until baked and golden brown in colour. Remove from the oven and leave to cool a little before partially slicing the top into sections ( I use my metal bread scraper for this) divide into equal portions this makes it easier to slice through into bars when the Flapjacks have cooled completely.
Step 8: Only when they are completely cold, should you slice them into individual bars.
* Tip 1 - Do not over heat the butter and sugar the Flapjacks will become hard and difficult to eat.
* Tip 2 - wait until the Flapjacks have cooled completely before you slice into individual bars.
* Tip 3 you can add additional ingredients for flavour = shedded coconut, finely chopped dried fruit, finely mixed nuts, chocolate chips, For example finely chopped dried apples & cinnamon, ginger, mixed spices, a spoonful of multi seeds. Play with the mixture & make it your family favourite.
* Tip 4 - once cooled & sliced you can dip one end in chocolate. Or top with candied fruit, caramel nuts,
Enjoy ❤️
Ok, that granola looks amazing...and simple. Yea for simple! I have tried baked oatmeal before, but was not a fan...but I will give yours a try, because I have learned you really have terrific recipes. So yep, those two are definitely getting tried! Blessings to you and family as you celebrate this week! Marie
I think the key is the type of oats... never quick, & the heartier the better. IMHO
Good luck with your daughter’s wedding. Many blessings!
Always inspiring!💕🙏
I love to listen to you talk! You always seem to have given deep thought to what you say! Your voice is pleasant to for listening. God bless you. I live in south central Texas
Ruth A wishing the Young couple happiness❤️❤️
Always wait for u r wonderful videos 💕💐
Love your videos! You are so right: those store-bought cereals are LOADED with additives, that turn you into an addict for those cereals! I’m looking for a much healthier version of granola cereals. Those are my favorite. Maxwell did an AWESOME job prepping & baking the cereal! ❤️
I really really really appreciate your insights on blood sugar in the mornings! I'm definitely going to start having my kids drink milk when they wake up! Thank you so much!
OMG I just made your cereal recipe it is way better than store bought..my kids are going to be so happy ..we stopped buying cereal about a year ago they didn't like that idea but now once they taste this 😍thank you so much for the recipe
God Bless your Daughter's new life, and blessings to you and rest of family.
I always love what you share and the encouragement for others to try to add to their skill set. I have worked outside of my home for 42 + years and I love being in the kitchen! I don’t even mind the dishes and I don’t have a dish washer.😂 Simple, home cooked meals is right up my alley! I hope you take time off for your daughter’s wedding!! We’ll be here when you get back!!!
I feel like part of your family, I so like watching your videos , it has given me a few tips..❤

Your cereals look delicious! I appreciate your gentle encouragement, thank you. ❤
I love how you have all the kids help cook and do chores. It is important to give them responsibility in the family. It also helps them grow and be social. We could as a family and work asa family. It gives everyone a sense of accomplishment. Enjoyed the video. Hope all goes well with the wedding and enjoy your celebration. Congrats to the soon to be couple.
Thank you Ruthanne! I pray you have a blessed family wedding. ❤
Blessings to you and your family on this happy occasion and yes a wedding is happy .also I love your videos they have helped me even at almost 70. Never to old to learn ❤😊
You are such an encouragement to me. My four children are completely grown and we are learning to do life with a smaller household but the time and nutrition and health economy is still very important to me. God bless you
Thank you for the scratch cooking, pep talk. Its good for all of us to know it takes time for anything we want in our life, or changes we wanna make.
