New York-Style Crumb Cake
Good afternoon, earthquake survivors! Seems like everyone is a little shook up today. We didn’t feel it down here in GA, but if we had, I would certainly be celebrating survival with this crumb cake. Truthfully, I made this crumb cake about 100 million years ago and forgot to post it. I found the photos […]
Miss Brenda’s Pound Cake
One of my favorite things about living in Georgia is that Southern hospitality. Shortly after we arrived in GA, we had the honor of sharing a meal at Miss Brenda’s. This woman is the sweetest Southern gal you will ever meet! I just love her laughter and smiles, her love for the Lord and her […]
Jim Lahey’s Stecca Bread
I mentioned in my last post that we love great bread at our picnics. Sometimes we just tear it up and eat it in chunks with cheese and fruit and sometimes we’ll do sandwiches. For some reason, great bread just makes a picnic more memorable (and obviously more delicious). This recipe is a perfect picnic […]
Pie Fries
Wondering what you’re going to do with your pie dough scraps? Do you even have pie dough scraps?Sometimes I do. Usually, I just throw them away, but if there’s a ton left over, I’ll make hand pies. After my pie dough comparison, I had a lot of extra dough and had already made hand pies, […]
Blackberry Galette
Did I tell you my thing about pies? Here’s my thing. I didn’t used to like pies as a kid, but I do now. I love to eat them, but I don’t really like to make them. (I’m more of a cake baker, remember?) I know pie dough is easy to pull together, but the […]
Nutella Chocolate Chip Cookies
I am a chewy chocolate chip cookie lover. There is just something excellent about biting into a soft, gooey, melty cookie. Sounds perfect already.. but add nutella, and I’ll eat the whole batch. I’ve been a little light on the posting lately. That’s mostly because I got burnt out on all the vegan business. It […]
Vegan CocoNana Mini Muffins
Even though I’m not living the vegan lifestyle anymore, I’m still finding ways to enjoy vegan recipes in my diet. I saw this recipe this morning on Miss Mary‘s blog and I had to jump right in and make them! They looked delicious and simple, and they were. The name CocoNana refers to the coconut […]
Part-Time Vegan, Day 4
I ate too many cookies today. ‘Cause, you know.. sugar’s vegan. (Woo hoo!) Breakfast was a peanut butter banana wrap with almond milk. Lunch was the salad bar at Lane’s. Snack was (too many!!) vegan chocolate chip cookies. Dinner was leftover pasta. Let me just tell you about this banana wrap. I make this […]
Cinnamon Sugar Baked Doughnuts
Back in January, when I started this whole great adventure, I promised you doughnuts during Brunch Month. It took me all month, but I can finally deliver! Here’s my deal with doughnuts. I usually don’t eat them. I don’t work in an office these days, and I don’t make a habit of driving through Krispy […]
Maple Syrup Scones
I have two sweet treats to end up our month of brunching- Maple Sugar Scones today and Cinnamon Sugar Baked Doughnuts tomorrow. Perfect brunch fare, and both inspired by Heidi at 101 Cookbooks. She and I are totally on the same wavelength! I’ve made maple pecan scones before, which were great, but I was looking […]
