When Claire posted her recipe for English Muffins back in the summer, I borrowed my brother’s cast-iron skillet so I could give them a try. This was perfect timing, because he was about to embark on a kitchen reno, so there wouldn’t be any cooking happening over there for a while. But then I kept......
Biscotti aren’t really my thing. They’re too crunchy and kind of bland, and what’s the point of a cookie you can’t eat without dunking in coffee or tea? I do however consider myself a biscotti making expert, since they’re the treat I used to always make for my favourite former boss (here are a couple......
Last week I texted my friend Lusina to see if she had any treat requests for my upcoming visit to see her and her baby twins. At first she said no, and that I shouldn’t go to any trouble (I mean, has she met me? It’s my joy in life to fulfil treat requests!). But......
Our assignment this week for Baked Sunday Mornings was a batch of Black Forest Cookies. The Baked Boys took the classic Black Forest flavours and turned them into a cookie with lots of chocolate, dried cherries and white chocolate chips. Personally, I’m anti-Black Forest everything, and you can read more on that here, from when we......
I think I’m ready to declare that Valentine’s Day is my favourite baking holiday, or at least tied with Easter. There’s no pressure, no expectations, and if I can spread some love with treats, well that’s my joy in life anyway. I haven’t blogged my Valentine’s Day baking in the past, with the exception of these......
I love making my own birthday cake. This is a long-held and well-documented belief here on Planet Byn. It’s pretty much the only time of the year that I make something with only myself in mind, and I start thinking about it months in advance. It took me forever to decide what kind of cake......
Gingersnaps really aren’t my favourite type of cookie, and I don’t necessarily reach for citrus desserts, but I decided to give this week’s Baked Sunday Morning recipe a try anyway. I was mostly motivated by the fact that this is a one bowl, one spatula recipe, and it was really quick to mix up. The......
I’m pretty picky when it comes to cinnamon. I tend to only really love it in warm, cozy fall recipes with pumpkin and apple (SOON!). I don’t really like it paired with chocolate, I’ll never add it to a savoury recipe, and my most hated cookie of all time is the dreaded Snickerdoodle. So I......
Our sweet friend Meg is having a baby! What better way to celebrate than with a virtual baby shower in her honour. Meg’s expecting Baby Girl #2 at the end of this month, and we’re all so excited for her. I love that we’ve been there for all the fun parts of Meg’s pregnancy, from......
As much as I love baking my way through Baked Elements with the Baked Sunday Morning team, I noticed something strange today. Everything we’ve been making from this book lately has been brown or beige. There’s nothing wrong with that as it usually means chocolate or caramel is involved, but it’s a such a contrast......
