For Thanksgiving this year I put a design twist on my classic apple galette and it was a hit! Enough of you asked for the recipe that I figured I would draft an update that uses the below sliced apple segment design. I also used copious amounts of salted caramel, which was a major win … Continue reading Salted Caramel Apple Galette
Apple Cider Donuts
In Fall 2018, I made a batch of very good apple cider donuts. I had the intention of posting the recipe, never did (surprise, surprise) and promptly lost the recipe. Here we are 2 years later, and I'm confident these are as good or better than the originals! Cider donuts are a pure joy during … Continue reading Apple Cider Donuts
Brown Butter Chocolate Chunk Cookies
I almost named this post "The Only Cookies that Matter", but decided against it. Too long and doesn't mention the brown butter. I've been bad and haven't posted in 9 months (!!!). I've still been baking of course, but life is busy, and with that, I've had less time for developing and writing recipes. I've … Continue reading Brown Butter Chocolate Chunk Cookies
Strawberry Bourbon Lemonade Pie
As we all know, strawberries are one of the first signs that the harsh, insanely long winter has passed, the spring rhubarb and it's semi-almost kind of warm weather are on their way out and summer might actually arrive. When I finally saw strawberries at the farmer's markets, I was relieved, but I was still … Continue reading Strawberry Bourbon Lemonade Pie
Grapefruit Donuts
Every season I look forward to the collaboration that Annie, Rebecca and Ruth from What Annie's Eating and Square Meal Round Table put together for fellow food bloggers and Instagrammers, all focussed on seasonal produce. This winter, we're brightening these cold days with grapefruit! These grapefruit donuts have a subtle brightness from the citrus and … Continue reading Grapefruit Donuts
Bourbon Date Cake
When I went to Marrakech, I was converted to dates. I had never completely signed on as a fan, but when you try things at the source, you typically get what the hype is about. The hype reached another level when I had dinner on the rooftop of Nomad, overlooking the spice souk and watching … Continue reading Bourbon Date Cake
Salted Maple Pie
I was looking back on my pie repertoire the other day and came across the Salty Honey Custard Pie - sweet, salty and a little bit weird, it's everything I love in dessert. But now it's winter and I think we're looking for something a bit... toastier. Enter sweet, sweet maple syrup - essentially a 1 for … Continue reading Salted Maple Pie
Brown Butter Gingerbread Bundt Cakes
As we all know I am a brown butter enthusiast. I basically don't make cookies anymore without browning butter and I am all about adding it to pies and tarts. I had never thought about using it in a cake, but for these bundt cakes I thought I would try an experiment and see how … Continue reading Brown Butter Gingerbread Bundt Cakes
Dark Chocolate Chunk Cranberry Cookies
I always love the seasonal collaborations that Annie of @whatannieseating and Rebecca and Ruth of @squaremealroundtable put together, and this was no exception. For fall, cranberries were the star ingredient, and I decided to go with a dessert that's a bit simpler, but no less delicious - cookies. With Thanksgiving coming up south of the … Continue reading Dark Chocolate Chunk Cranberry Cookies
Red Currant Apple Pie
Last weekend I went to Andrew's Scenic Acres and among all the apples and gourds, I was thrilled to find freezers full of farm frozen summer fruit, including currants. I had seen apples mixed with berries in pie before and thought that red currants would cut through a typical warm apple pie with their acidity. … Continue reading Red Currant Apple Pie
