My strategy for coming up with State Fair baking ideas was to pour over the list of options and pick categories that I think won’t be too overrun, and that I know how to bake for. Then I made a list of flavor combinations that I like. And now… it’s just about pairing those ideas…
Half-Batch Blueberry Coffee Cake
One thing about my Dad is that if there is a coffee cake offered at a breakfast establishment, we are going to be ordering a slice for the table. And one thing about me is that I will not complain! I think coffee cake is somewhat underrated. Or maybe it’s just me who forgets about…
Carrot Cake Smoothie
Surprise, surprise, I had to do another carrot drink, because I have these glasses, and I bought a lot of carrot juice. As much as I like carrots, I’m not drinking carrot juice plain. So why not make it in to a smoothie? That’s got the same spices as carrot cake? Delicious way to start…
Carrot Cake Scuffins
These were supposed to be carrot cake scones, but then once I tried one… I realized they were more of a scuffin.

While I saw no reason to go through the rigamarole of dyeing bagel dough five different colors… I wanted to try making homemade…
Brown Butter Rye Scones
I’m still working on that start of the year goal of using up all the mostly-used ingredients in my pantry. I went through a rye phase a few months ago, but stopped before I used up all the rye flour in my pantry. So a cup of flour was still sitting in its own bag….
Junior vs. Adult Bake Off: Pizza Star Bread
My family was thrilled when this year’s Great New Year’s Baking Show brought back the greatest the GBBO tent has ever seen: Jürgen. We watched the two holiday episodes this holiday season, and appreciated getting to see Jürgen back in the tent, and even performing his trombone. And then when they were done I convinced…
