Our 45 Most Popular Back-to-School Recipes.

Our 45 Most Popular Back-to-School Recipes and Bake Sale Treats that will win everyone over No matter what you’re up to this month or next, everyone is heading back to school and back to work. Today I’m sharing some of our most loved easy dinners and effortless desserts perfect for this busy, exciting time of year. Below you’ll find everything from effortless muffins to bake for an on-the-go breakfast, 30-minute meals, crockpot dinners the whole family loves, and some of our most baked-up, bake-sale treats (peanut bars and homemade rice krispie treats!). They’re all so good!

It’s so odd to me how much I love this time of year. Growing up, I was the girl who really disliked school more than anyone. I had so much anxiety around being in a classroom all day long. It made my childhood and teenage years so hard.

But yet, I always found so much comfort and joy in the early back-to-school season. This time of year means that cozy fall days are coming, Sunday night football is back, and all our favorite TV shows will soon be returning for their fall season. Families are settling back into everyday back-to-school routines after a summer of fun, while the rest of us are diving back into work and fall projects.

In the last month+, I’ve been getting many requests for easy back-to-school recipes. After doing a lot of digging through our recipe archive, I realized that we have so many yummy recipes that are perfect for back to school!

You can refer back to this post all year long. It’s full of past HBH gem recipes!!

Enjoy these recipes and happy back-to-school, back-to-work season!
