Sour Cream Chocolate Chip Coffee Cake

For my final coffee cake recipe for this month I decided to try this Sour Cream Chocolate Chip Coffee Cake. I don’t think I’ve made coffee cake in a loaf pan before but I’m not sure why because that seems super fun and makes it easier to serve (in my humble opinion). I made the…

Gluten-Free Coffee Cake

I have several friends who can’t have gluten so I thought it would be fun to try a gluten-free coffee cake. As you can imagine, there were no shortage of recipes online, but I chose this one because it looked easy and I wanted to do a half recipe and this seemed easy to do.…

Blueberry Coffee Cake

Side note, I’m not coffee cake connoisseur, but I always assumed coffee cake just meant it had the brown sugar/cinnamon/butter filling in a middle layer. I’ve noticed a lot of recipe call themselves coffee cake even if they don’t have that and opt for the streusel topping. Regardless of what actually defines coffee cake I’m…

Bananas Foster Coffee Cake with Vanilla Rum Sauce

I should probably start off by noting that I actually have never had Bananas Foster. It’s something I’ve been wanting to try for a while, but there aren’t a lot of restaurants I’ve been to serving it so I just haven’t had the chance yet. I ran across this recipe while searching for different coffee…

Cinnamon-Streusal Coffeecake

I have a favorite coffee cake recipe I’ve been using for a few years now, but I figured if I was going to spend a few weeks trying new recipes I ought to start with the basic version first. The topping is honestly the best part of coffee cake (in my opinion) so I set…

Lemon Blueberry Scones
I’m celebrating scones this month so each week during the month of February I’ll be trying different scone recipes. Last year I tried Cranberry Scones, Bacon-Cheddar-Chive Scones, and Cinnamon Swirl Scones; so I’ll be focusing on some different recipes this month. I’m kicking things off with this Lemon Blueberry Scones recipe from King Arthur. Firstly,…

Crispy Belgian Waffles

It’s waffle time again! Last time I made waffles I used the King Arthur recipe so in the interest of experimentation I found another recipe to try this time. I prefer a really crispy waffle so that was my goal in searching for the right recipe. One key difference between this recipe and others is…

12 Days of Christmas Baking- Pastry Edition Day 12: King Arthur’s Almond Galette

Final day! I’ll be honest, this wasn’t easy. Our oven went out three weeks ago so I’ve been borrowing people’s kitchen since then to make these recipes. Many thanks to all those who allowed me to do a bit of a kitchen takeover! Because of the oven situation, I had to make some changes to…

12 Days of Christmas Baking- Pastry Edition Day 11: King Cake

Before I begin talking about the recipe I feel like I should give a disclaimer. Apparently you’re not supposed to eat king cake before Epiphany (Jan 6) because it’ll bring you bad luck. I’m not superstitious so I figured a little earlier wouldn’t hurt…. I’ve made a king cake twice before. The first time I…

12 Days of Christmas Baking- Pastry Edition Day 10: Napoleons
While many of the pastries I’ve made are more modern pastries, the Napoleon is a classic french pastry. Since I didn’t make my own puff pastry for the few earlier 12 Days of Christmas Baking pastries I knew I had to try it at least once during this challenge. I chose King Arthur’s recipe because…
