Muffins are a much loved breakfast treat in our home. I usually have at least a few different varieties in the freezer for an easy addition to our breakfasts. I’ve always loved zucchini muffins, but these are pretty awesome. With so much squash in the garden, I’m happy to have yet another way to use it. With brown sugar, spices and garden fresh zucchini, I’ve found a new family favorite zucchini muffin. Get New Recipessent to your...
Brioche is a French bread and it is characterized by a sweet rich flavor and a flaky texture. Having never tried Brioche before, I wasn’t sure what to expect. This bread lives up to its reputation. It was so easy to make and it tastes amazing. On top of the fact that we loved eating it, the fact that I can put this dough together in about 5 minutes, let it rise for a couple of hours and then stick it in the fridge until a later date, makes...
I have several zucchini bread recipes that I use each year when the squash is plentiful. This bread is the most requested recipe of them all. The olive oil in this recipe gives it a deeper flavor and the whole wheat gives the bread a great texture and slightly nutty flavor as well.I still love my Brown Sugar Spice Zucchini Muffins, but this is a different flavor entirely. This bread is richer in flavor and not cake-like at all. It is...
With so many zucchinis at my fingertips this summer, I’m having fun playing with different recipes for baked goods. These muffins were really good. Naturally, the kids loved them, but why wouldn’t they? These were definitely more cake than bread.Get New Recipessent to your inbox!Sign me up!We never share your information with third parties and will protect it in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

In the interest of never tossing an awesome bagel just because you couldn’t eat them lightning fast, here’s my little hack for steaming day old, stale bagels at home, using just a sprinkling of water! While in Canada, we have eaten more pastries, bagels, and other awesome baked goods, than I can recall eating before in my life. There are two prominent bagel shops here in the Mont-Royal neighborhood of Montreal. Fairmount Bagel and...
I tasted Laffa Bread for the first time while visiting my sister over the holidays and it was bread-love at first bite. Chewy and elastic, laffa bread reminds me of both naan and pita bread, with a better flavor and chew. It is amazing to me that we are able to bake so many different breads, crackers, tortillas, and more, using the same basic ingredients. The grilling method used for cooking this bread gives it a unique flavor. Laffa bread...

On a night when I wanted a cobbler, but didn’t really want to bake; this was the ideal dessert. Fresh peaches and raspberries are lightly tossed with lemon curd and then baked until soft. The fruit is sweet and tart and unbelievably fragrant when it comes out of the oven. Topped with barely sweetened whipped cream, this was a much nicer dessert than I anticipated. This would also be delicious with vanilla ice cream. Get New...
Several years ago, a sweet friend of mine requested a Flourless Chocolate Cake for her birthday. I’d never heard of it before, but she told me that she had fallen in love with it at a restaurant once and wondered if I could make her one. I found a number of different recipes and I tried a couple of them. Then I made this one and it took my breath away. I’ve made this cake several times over the past few years and every time this is served,...
Chewy, buttery sweet oatmeal cookies that taste like toffee; the pictures of these cookies simply do not do them justice. I’ve made them three times now and they are devoured within hours of baking. I have some of these in the freezer now, waiting for my trip, along with the Lemon Crinkle Cookies and Delicate Chocolate Cookies. My brother asked me to post the recipe, as soon as he tasted these. These are deceptive...
