Elevate Holiday Recipes with 100% Grass-Fed Organic Dairy

Published

Holiday Recipe

(Family Features) Holiday cooking and baking may be a timeless tradition, but there are plenty of ways to elevate your favorite recipes to be healthier and more indulgent in taste and texture, and it all starts with the quality of the ingredients you choose.

Nutrient-rich ingredients including 100% grass-fed organic dairy can help you enjoy festive favorites while feeling good about creating recipes for friends and family. Cows that follow a 100% grass-fed diet produce a more nutrient-dense milk as nature intended, complete with an artisanal rich and creamy taste and texture that may become a staple ingredient this season.

Holiday Recipe

Swap your conventional and traditional organic dairy for 100% grass-fed organic dairy from Maple Hill that provides super-premium ingredients for all your holiday recipes.

Yogurt
From fluffy pancakes to melt-in-your-mouth muffins, 100% grass-fed organic yogurt can turn classic breakfast dishes into an indulgent holiday brunch spread. A wholesome, nutrient dense alternative to buttermilk, sour cream or even milk, varieties of yogurt including Greek, plain and vanilla can add an artisanal richness as a breakfast side on its own or as an ingredient that balances the sweet and savory notes of many popular holiday recipes. Just thin the yogurt slightly with water, if necessary, to achieve the perfect consistency for your recipe and provide a wholesome, fresh dairy flavor.

Butter
Enjoy the rich, smooth texture of butter in all your holiday favorites – from baking cookies to whipping up creamy mashed potatoes, adding depth to soups and more. By swapping standard and traditional organic butter for Maple Hill’s high-quality, 100% grass-fed organic butter in Salted or Unsalted varieties, you can bring a layer of rich, artisanal flavor to your recipes. Crafted with just two simple ingredients, it reflects the purity of dairy as nature intended. With its creamy texture and rich flavor profile, 100% grass-fed organic butter brings a wholesome richness to your holiday table, offering a truly elevated experience your loved ones will savor.

Kefir
In response to the increasing demand for probiotic-rich, gut-friendly products, an option like kefir can be used as a healthier buttermilk to bring a light, tangy depth to cornbread, biscuits, frosting, cakes and more. While it can be enjoyed as a standalone drink with its rich flavor and potential gut-health benefits, its thick, creamy texture and indulgent, buttery notes make it an ideal substitute for traditional dairy that’s just as nutrient-dense as it is delicious in a variety of holiday recipes.

Milk
From the glass left out for Santa to holiday desserts like hot chocolate bombs and savory dinner sides, milk is the ultimate holiday staple. This season, trade your conventional and traditional organic milk for the premium taste and texture of 100% grass-fed organic milk, such as Maple Hill’s whole or 2% milk. Packed with vitamin B2, riboflavin, calcium, phosphorus and pantothenic acid, it offers a 50% higher ratio of omega-3 to omega-6, which may contribute to variety of health benefits such as lowering the risk of heart disease. Expect a naturally sweet, smooth and rich flavor – perfect for holiday treats that are as wholesome as they are indulgent.

recipes

(Family Features) If blustery conditions are giving you the blues, come inside from the cold for a winter warmup in the comfort of your own kitchen. Cold-weather favorites that are baked, roasted or slow cooked are usually equal parts easy, delicious and filling, making them perfect solutions for chilly, snowy days.

Add a bit of comfort to your weeknight menu with this Loaded Chicken Bake that’s ready in about half an hour. A short list of ingredients and allowing your oven to do most of the work for you mean it’s ideal for saving time (and money at the grocery store) while still satisfying winter appetites.

Serving as the hearty base is READ German Potato Salad, made with thinly sliced potatoes and bacon in a traditional sweet-piquant dressing. While it’s delicious when served chilled, heated or at room temperature on its own, it can also be the star of the show in family meals.

For another true cent saver, try Oven-Roasted Sweet Potatoes and Beets. This savory side dish highlights the flavors of the season in a recipe that’s as easy to assemble as it is to enjoy with loved ones.

Picked and packed at peak ripeness, antioxidant-rich Aunt Nellie’s beets are pickled with a delicate balance of sweetness and vinegar for a homemade flavor that’s perfect in this roasted side that can accompany winter meals of all sorts. Versatile jarred whole pickled beets are always in season, meaning you can enjoy them chilled, warmed or worked into recipes.
