This potato bread is part of my State Fair Gamble this year. I’m entering the categories with the least number of entries, to see if I have a better shot at placing. Maybe that’s a bit silly. A bit greedy. But I want to see how it goes, and at least get guaranteed feedback on…
Muesli Banana Bread
When I was in Iceland, I went to Brauð & co. for their world famous cinnamon rolls, and was very easily tempted by their caramel muesli bun. It was stand-out incredible. Making muesli into streusel is just one of those things that feels so obvious… Like, of course this oat-y cereal should be a streusel….
Cinnamon Blueberry White Chocolate Banana Bread
As I’ve said before, there is an art to buying bananas to make sure you don’t have too many that go brown. There is also an art to buying food in the week leading up to a vacation, so you don’t have a bunch of food go bad. I sort of bungled it before my…
Cheesy Pickle Beer Bread
I’ve said before that this is more a baking journal than a baking blog, and that means detailing some of the boring bakes. The flops, if you will. In my journey to discover more exciting beer breads, I decided to try a savory one. When I saw pickle beer in the store, I figured it…
Lemon Poppyseed Muffins
I’ve said it many times before, but one thing about me is that I am not going to let any ingredient or food go to waste. So when I had a scant 1/2 cup of ricotta left in the fridge, I knew I had to do something with it. And you know what that no-waste…
White Chocolate Berry Beer Bread
I’m in my Beer Bread Era, as the kids’ say. I’m experimenting with different kinds of beer in preparation for the State Fair, and this time, I used a triple berry sour. Naturally, I mixed in dried blueberries and white chocolate (sort of like those old Milk Bar cookies). White Chocolate Berry Beer Bread is…
Chocolate Beer Bread
I have been sort of… bored recently. There’s lots of things coming up on my calendar to do, but at the moment I don’t have any big projects or anything. Not a lot of going on but the doldrums of the day to day. It can wear on you. Or, at least, it wears on…
Pepperoni Bagel Bombs
When I was in college, I lived in an apartment with three other girls. It was an incredibly run-down apartment, and it was near impossible to keep clean. And I don’t mean that in a lazy way. I think if you spent a day cleaning it, with no furniture or items in it, it would…
