None of my usual birthday cake food groups were calling my name when I started thinking about what kind of treat I wanted to make myself this year. (For reference they are: Cookie Dough, Funfetti, S’mores and Chocolate/Peanut Butter.) I started flipping through a few cookbooks for inspo when I realized I STILL hadn’t made......
As stated numerous times here, I’m just not a fan of (most) fruit desserts – I don’t like tart/creamy things (i.e. Lemon Meringue Pie, Key Lime Pie) and I don’t like HOT FRUIT! But on Thanksgiving, you just have to give the people what they want, and the people want apple pie. This recipe popped......
I’m really excited that some of my friends are starting to return to the office. I feel the potential for lunches and after-work drinks in the air, and I couldn’t be happier! My friend Erin is back to work every Friday, so we met up a couple weeks ago for coffee and promptly resumed our......
First off, this is a terrible picture. It is not doing justice to the absolute decadence and deliciousness within. I’m blogging it anyway because it was SO GOOD, and I brought it to my last in person gathering before Omicron descended on our lives and the rest of all my Friendsmas plans were cancelled (sad......
For the second year in a row, I wasn’t feeling like making a cake for my birthday. I’ve been obsessed with New Pie Co. for a while, so I decided to try to reverse engineer one of their pies that I was drooling over on Instagram for a while. I’m not sure if the name......
No one in my family likes pumpkin pie except my Mom and Dad, and since it was just the three of us for Thanksgiving this year, I decided to make it for them. But not just any pumpkin pie! I reverse engineered this creation from Cake & Loaf‘s Thanksgiving menu that I kept seeing on......
I can’t let Summer pass by without making at least one pie, and I’ve had this one bookmarked since last year. Blueberry pie is one of my favourite pies to make because the fruit is so low maintenance; just a quick rinse and you’re ready to go. Then you can use the time you saved......
I almost bailed on this week’s recipe as it’s well known around this blog that I don’t like citrus desserts, especially those that are tart and creamy at the same time. But I’ve committed to making the last 10 recipes on our Baked Sunday Mornings schedule, so here we are! My other motivating factor was......
I wrote last week about how I wasn’t finding Ontario peaches up to their normal juicy, delicious standards this summer, but I still had one more thing I wanted to make with them. This galette was the perfect way to coax out their sweetness, mixing them with honey and a little bit of bourbon, all......
After making the world’s best pie earlier this summer, I was eager to take on another one! I’ve had my eye on this Blueberry & Blackberry Pie from Smitten Kitchen for a couple years now, and have just been obsessed with the beautiful purple filling. I picked up a gigantic basket of blueberries at the......
