Like Chrissy's famous banana bread in fried dough form!
We are always trying to find ways to eat more of Chrissy's ultimate banana bread. The recipe from her second cookbook, 'Cravings: Hungry for More,' is famous for a reason—it is the most fluffy, moist (sorry) banana bread you'll ever try with different mix-ins to add extra textures and flavors. After turning it into Banana Bread Pancake Bites, we have transformed it again into an even more craveable form: FRIED DOUGH! These French-style, New Orleans-inspired beignets have all the warm, toasty flavors of the original banana bread but with lots of deep-fried crunch. For extra decadence, add a scoop of vanilla ice cream and thank us later.

Versatile sheet pans are essential for everyone, but this sparkling champagne gold set will make your kitchen shine a little brighter. The oversized sheet pan (20"x14") is ideal for making a nice big pizza or a sheet pan dinner for the whole family; a 15"x10" cookie sheet can make a dozen cookies or a tray of roasted vegetables; and a 13"x10" baking pan is just screaming for a cake. The best part? The nonstick surface makes for super easy cleanup!
We call this the one-pot wonder for a reason. Not only is it your secret weapon for slow-cooking comfort foods, it's equally useful for stir-fries, soups, or basically anything sautéed. Nonstick interior keeps messes—and cleaning—to a minimum Textured lid circulates steam to lock in moisture Can be used on a stovetop or in the oven–also serves as a gorgeous serving vessel
We call them Chrissy's faves for a reason—between this saucepan, skillet, and a universally useful multipurpose pan, you can cook pretty much anything. All three feature aluminum core induction for even cooking and double-layer stainless steel, and the skillet and cook-anything pan feature non-toxic nonstick coating. This stunning, gold-handled set includes the all-day, everyday essentials that make kitchen life chic and easy.
All three of Chrissy’s iconic cookbooks in one collection! This set includes Cravings, Cravings: Hungry for More, and Cravings: All Together. Give all three to yourself or your favorite cook, or spread the love and gift separately.
