People have started coming back to the office! Last week I had two of my co-workers come back for a day, so I welcomed them with this Pumpkin Coffee Cake which was a big hit. This week two different teammates were in, so I used up the rest of my pumpkin puree from the can......
I love a carby breakfast baked good, and Claire’s got one for us that you can actually feel pretty good about eating. Her Seedy Maple Breakfast Muffins are full of healthy ingredients like whole-wheat flour, greek yogurt, coconut oil, ground flax and blueberries. This is a really simple recipe to mix up, and you just......
Can you believe my oldest niece turned 13 last week? (I can’t). I couldn’t let a pandemic get in the way of breaking a 13 year undefeated birthday cake streak, so I texted my niece to see if she had anything in mind for this year. She asked me if there were any cakes that......
Dutch babies are something that I had never heard of before I started reading food blogs almost 10 years ago. This isn’t something I ate growing up, and I unfortunately don’t have a cast-iron skillet that was passed down to me through the generations! For this reason, I usually bypass any and all dutch baby......
Happy Easter! For the second time recently, we’re posting a holiday recipe on the actual holiday! Well, the rest of the group is, but I’m going rogue. They’re making a Mega Easter Pie (“a meat and cheese utopia” as it’s dubbed in the book), but I’m not really into it. Check out their posts here.......
When Danielle and I went to Atlanta last year, one of the places we went for brunch was Highland Bakery. It was actually my least favourite meal of the weekend, but it was saved by one special thing. We bought little mini sweet potato scones from the bakery case up front to snack on while......
Our mission this week was to make something that showed our Canadian pride as we cheered on our Olympic athletes. Awesome! So here are some maple sugar cookies sandwiched together with maple buttercream. But here’s the thing: I hate the Winter Olympics (gasp! shock! horror!). I just can’t get excited about speed skating or bobsledding......
Every year I host a little Christmas party for my friends, where we eat cookies, drink champagne, and toast the holidays. It’s selfish really; in years past I used to make up cookie packages and deliver them around to everyone, whereas now, everyone comes to me! This little soiree is always BYOT, where the T......
  Our Gastropost Mission this week was NUTS (literally)! And if I’m forced to pick a favourite, I have to go with pecans. They’re my favourite nut, hands down. My preferred application would be pecan pie, but to get an everyday fix, they’re my nut of choice to include in a homemade, crunchy granola. This recipe......
Here’s the second treat I made for the Friendsgiving Feast, because you know I can’t just stop at one. Of course, we were all full by the time we got through our pie, so I ended up wrapping these up for everyone to take home....
