Southern-Style Cornbread
If given the choice, I will choose biscuits over cornbread but every once in a while I get a craving for it. Since we have the cast-iron skillet, it seemed only fitting to make a nice batch of cornbread just like my grandmother would have made. Growing up we would actually put a piece of […]

Best-Ever Easter Bread
I don’t often make bread so I always get nervous trying bread recipes because I feel like they can be so finicky. This recipe looked so fun though and I’m trying to push myself outside my comfort zone a little so I figured I’d just try it and see what happens. This recipe takes a […]

12 Days of Christmas Baking Day 11: Panettone
Seriously, I’ve made more bread in this past week than I probably have my whole life (minus banana or cranberry breads). Here it is though, the last bread recipe for this challenge! I saved this one for later because I needed to order panettone molds and I wasn’t sure they’d be here earlier on in […]

12 Days of Christmas Baking Day 7: Czech Kolaches
Note to self: really take time to research recipes before committing to them. Had I taken a little longer to check out the recipes I chose I would have realized that close to half were bread recipes. Not only do I not have a ton of experience with bread baking, but it takes FOREVER! If […]

12 Days of Christmas Baking Day 3: Conchas (Mexican Pan Dulce)
Wow… I thought yesterday tested my abilities. Today’s challenge stepped things up a little! First, I would definitely recommend watching the video under the instructions beforehand as it was really helpful to watch someone else doing this before starting. Second, I should have started this dough last night and let it rise in the fridge […]

12 Days of Christmas Baking Day 2: German Christmas Stollen
I’ll be honest, I’ve never even tasted stollen before much less made it. I knew this particular baked good would be a bit of a challenge as I haven’t had a lot of experience with bread making. Unlike everyone else in 2020, I spent my time making unhealthy treats like cupcakes instead of bread! While […]

Banana Nut Bread
Moving day approaches and while trying to clean out the freezer I found 6 bananas I’d thrown in there to make banana bread with later. [Tip: once bananas get a little too rip put them in the freezer and then thaw them out to use in banana bread.] My tried and true banana bread recipe […]

Orange Cranberry Bread
In an effort to clean out items in our pantry/freezer I decided to make orange cranberry bread. With all of our cookbooks packed I scoured the internet for a recipe to try and found one from Sally’s Baking Addiction and having all of the ingredients on hand I decided to give it a go. Normally […]

Mardi Gras King Cake
I had been craving king cake for weeks and being unable to find one in the grocery store I finally just decided to make one myself. I attempted a gluten free King Cake a few years ago and it did not go well (as many of my gluten free attempts turn out…). However, I decided […]
