Challah Cinnamon Rolls

February 3, 2015

You should know from my post on Jackie’s challah bread that my love for challah runs deep. I’ve made a couple of loaves this year already and then the other day I did something kind of crazy and kind of genius. I turned my lovely challah dough into a batch of sweet and sticky cinnamon [...]

Jackie’s Challah Bread

October 2, 2013

When I lived in New York, my friends Jackie and Milena hosted a potluck dinner almost every Friday night. It was our time to feast and gossip, and it was my favorite way to start the weekend. Every potluck had a theme (like “breakfast for dinner” or “English tea party”). No matter what the theme [...]

Simple Flatbread

August 30, 2012

The first time I used yeast, I accidently killed it. The cinnamon roll muffins that I was attempting to make turned out more like cinnamon roll hockey pucks. I called my little sister to complain and she told me that the water I dissolved the yeast in was probably too hot, thus killing the yeast. [...]

Zucchini Bread + Cooper’s First Blog Appearance

August 20, 2012

I don’t really want Cooper to overshadow the zucchini bread in this post, but it is his first blog appearance, so I’ll let you be the judge. Before I start gushing about the joys of puppy parenting, let me tell you that this zucchini bread is really good. This version has a little whole wheat [...]

Whole Grain Yogurt Biscuits {with Honey}

June 15, 2012

My little sister started baking before I had the slightest interest in it. She had a passion for it from a very young age, while I just dabbled in it as a kid. So growing up, I was able to pick up a few tips and tidbits from her and it has undoubtedly influenced my [...]

Classic Soft Dinner Rolls

March 6, 2012

I made these rolls to go with dinner last night. They are very soft and squishy, and are the kind of rolls that go well with just about anything. While eating them, I also thought they would be great to use as buns for sliders and other types of mini sandwiches (remind me to try [...]

Cheddar and Chive Biscuits + Sea Salt and Maple Butter

January 31, 2012

A couple of years ago, I ate at BLT Fish in New York. I don’t really remember much about the meal or even what I ordered, but I do remember thinking how nice it was that they gave me this: It’s a recipe for their cheddar and chive biscuits, which they serve before the meal. [...]

Honey Oatmeal Sandwich Bread

January 2, 2012

Happy 2012! I’m back from the Midwest and am officially (kind of) tired of eating cookies and other holiday treats. Like a lot of other people, I’m trying to recover from end-of-year feasting and want to start the new year on a healthy note. So the first thing I decided to bake this year is [...]

Maple and Sage Cornbread

November 17, 2011

Cornbread and turkey go really well together, so if you don’t have anything cornbread related planned for this year’s feast, I’d reconsider. I usually make a cornbread and sausage stuffing every Thanksgiving. It’s kind of amazing and probably one of the reasons why my husband wanted to be my husband, but I digress…that’s a completely different [...]

Flour Bakery’s Banana Bread

September 1, 2011

Your husband will love you for making this banana bread. He will eat half of it while waiting for dinner and he will be disappointed when he discovers that the other half is in the freezer for another day. Note to self: Freezing is not necessary, 1 loaf = 2 servings.
