Welcome to my Kitchen! I'm Leigh Anne, the mother of four adult children and my husband and I are now empty nesters. I know the challenges of learning to cook for just the 2 of you, it feels like learning to cook all over again! After the kids left home, I found that I stopped making a lot of our family's favorite dishes and treats because those recipes just made too much food and I was tempted to eat too much!
On this channel, I invite you into my kitchen each week where we learn how to make small batch recipes with big taste. You can still enjoy all those family favorite recipes, just less of it!I look forward to meeting you in the kitchen each week with a new recipe and video.
You can find all my recipes on my website at www.yourhomebasedmom.com.#smallbatchrecipes #cookingfortwo #smallbatchcooking

I love your small batch recipes. I bake many of them in my toaster oven instead of turning on the oven. Thank you!

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

So glad you enjoy them and making them in the toaster oven is a great idea

[@robingastonia9192]

Thank you for posting a good dessert for 2 and they are great portion control. I love to bake but I will get tired of a regular dessert. The recipes do not call for alot of ingredients and you have them in your pantry. I will have to make this. Thank you again. I hope you will continue to post small desserts. I love to bake in ramekins and they are great for portion control. I do the same thing you do, put them in a larger pan so you can get them out of the oven easier. I love sweets.

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Enjoy the recipes and thanks so much for following along!

[@patriciakalisak4300]

I love your recipes! They are delicious

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Thank you so much!! I'm so glad you enjoy them.

[@DenaInWyo]

It's just two old ladies in my house (my mother and I) and I absolutely love your "for two" recipes. We don't do desserts often, but when we're craving something, I hate making a great big cake or pie that we'll never in a million years get through without wasting half of it. Thank you so much!

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

So glad you found me and are enjoying the recipes!

[@erpadministrator]

I love this, it's quick, not messy, simple and not complicated. Good for a date night at home . Loved it

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

It's a good one - hope you love it.

[@ladeebug4650]

I made this recipe today and it is so good! Thank you.

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

I am so glad you loved it!

[@anitacordeiro372]

Very good, tried it today, thank you.

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@jamesmonroe2808]

I like how you tell if an ingredient doesn't have to be put in there or if there is a substitute like milk for buttermilk.

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

So glad!

[@shannongillespie5271]

Brilliant!

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Enjoy!

[@dianemoore1945]

Love this recipe, told my husband about it. He said "You haven't baked them yet?" Headed to the kitchen! Thank you for another great recipe and for all you do. D.

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Hope you love them!

[@Nannie4334]

Gonna do this in the air fryer by converting the temp and times for the air fryer. I'll make both and just put one of them in the fridge with plastic wrap on top or something and eat one of them with my lunch. I can't wait to make it. Thanks for your channel.

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Love that you are making them in the air fryer! Enjoy!

[@ArlenePMCM]

Please, how do you convert temp and times for air fryer? I have one but don't know how to use it!

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

@@ArlenePMCM I don't use an air fryer so don't know but may @Nanny64 can share the info with u s?

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Can you share the temp and time for using the air fryer?

[@josephmoore162]

I’ve noticed you don’t always use eggs. Do you mind to explain?

[@ppiechnik]

Or, you can put a piece of bread in the container also...does the same thing...also works for cookies that have gotten hard.

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Good to know - thanks!!

[@AnastaciaBurns]

My husband asked me last night if you had a recipe for individual pineapple upside down cakes. 😂😂😂

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Hope you love it!

[@bethnorth1683]

OMG! My dad loved pineapple upside down cake, BUT you must add pecans on the cake. Thank you for your wonderful recipes. 🤗

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Pecans would be delish - enjoy!

[@joty4688]

That was not a funny story at all Leigh Anne, traumatic as a child 😮! What’s funny is that now you’re on KZbin doing these specialized small batch recipes for many of us that really benefit from them! 😂👍🙏❤️

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Yes, it wasn't funny at the time but fortunately it is now!

[@joty4688]

@@LeighAnneWilkes And the Upside Down Pineapple cakes were delicious! Thank you for surviving home economics! 🙏❤️

[@janetfeil2639]

I grew up in Wisconsin too. Went to school in Milwaukee.

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

I grew up in Kenosha!

[@ruthlambert2405]

Also two large marshmallows in the brown sugar works as well

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

That's a great idea!! Yum!

[@Heather-dt2ot]

I believe peach upside down cake is much tastier than pineapple upside down cake

[@LeighAnneWilkes]

Using peaches sounds delish - I'll have to try it!

[@DenaInWyo]

@@LeighAnneWilkes rhubarb works great too!
