I stuck to the classics for Thanksgiving this year, but I just had to made at least one new recipe, and I knew right away which one it would be. Claire posted this video/recipe back in May under the title “The Best Homemade Dinner Rolls” and there’s no better time to put that claim to......
It would be impossible to power rank all the carbs that I love, but English Muffins would easily crack the Top 5. I love them toasted with peanut butter and jam or as part of a homemade breakfast sandwich. There’s just something about all those toasty nooks and crannies! I always thought it would be......
I think the carby/bready recipes from Dessert Person have been my favourite so far. I loved the Soft & Crispy Focaccia and the Pecan Maple Sticky Buns; both were SO good (even if I was a little annoyed at Claire saying you need a stand mixer to make them). I was really excited when the......
By now, we all know I’m obsessed with Claire Saffitz, but I do have one teeny tiny bone to pick with her. She is constantly saying in her videos that you need a stand mixer to make her recipes, and then sometimes she’ll reluctantly say with a sigh that you *could* use a hand mixer......
I had a nice little YEASTER streak going where I worked on a babka project on Good Friday for the last couple years. This year I switched to a Hot Cross Bun project, and true to 2020 form, it was a disaster. I took a break from yeast after that. When Sally posted this Apple......
Thanksgiving is my favourite holiday, but let’s be honest, this year it’s just going to be weird. Instead of dwelling on it, I decided to focus my energy on the food, and scaling down all my must-have dishes for our small celebration of three (me + my parents). So it’s the perfect time to document......
I have spent this entire month trying to convince myself that I like zucchini. I’ve always passed it off as just the worst vegetable because it’s slimy and doesn’t even taste like anything. The only way I’ve liked it in the past was in Smitten’s Zucchini Carpaccio, or maybe thrown in these noodles when I......
For the past 5 or 6 years, my friend Danielle has been making me the cutest Christmas gift: a calendar with pictures of all the treats I made throughout the year. It makes me so happy, and now that I have a cubicle again, it has a prominent spot on my wall. When I turned......
Now that my wedding cake experience is over, I hope to have a bit more baking time to get back into the swing of Baked Sunday Mornings! I may go back and post a few things to catch up, but for now, consider this my first recipe back. I made these Chipotle Cheddar Biscuits way back in......
And now presenting my favourite baking project so far in 2018: Chocolate Babka! I know I’m not the only person who first learned about Babka from Seinfeld (“You can’t beat a babka!”), and was reintroduced to it when I started reading Smitten Kitchen ten years ago. It’s a yeasted bread with a rich chocolate filling that......
