Zucchini Cheese Pancakes
This is actually a recipe I was going to do for the last Baking Through the Alphabet series and I actually did make it then, but ended up posting another recipe. These however, have become a staple in the freezer as they’re super easy to make and taste really good. Start by beating the eggs…

Bacon, Cheese and Pomegranate Pastry Wreath

We LOVE Nueske’s bacon and I ran across this recipe in an email they sent around the holidays. While you can order their bacon from their website, you can also find them in Fresh Market as well. This is a really simple recipe, but it does take a little time since you need to cook…

Herb & Cheddar Scones

Happy National Scone Day! Here’s another savory scone for you to try and if you’ll notice I’m back to cheddar. 🙂 I’m going to start by saying that I shifted gears at the last minute as to which recipe to use, so I did not have chives or fresh thyme. I’ll go ahead and note…

Gruyere & Black Pepper Scones

I loved the Bacon Cheddar Chive Scones I made a few years ago and this felt like the more mature big brother to those, so I thought it would be fun to give these a try. It’s pretty easy to make, though you do need to toast your walnuts beforehand. You throw all of the…

Egg Bites with Bacon & Gruyère

I went back and forth on whether this was really a baked good, since that’s what I usually focus on here. But you do bake these egg bites with bacon and Gruyère so I felt like it would be okay. Plus it’s my blog so I guess I can make whatever rules I want. 😉…

Red Pepper, Cheese, & Chive Tarlets

It felt like it was time for something savory and these tartlets looked fun! This recipe is from Mary Berry, who judged Great British Baking Show for a good many years. The pastry dough is pretty easy to make since you basically throw everything in a food processor and mix it up. It came together…

Quiche Lorraine

I was really worried I wouldn’t find a recipe for Q, but apparently there are a lot. I had something else I was going to try but time didn’t permit so I decided this would be a fun alternate. I’ve had Quiche Lorraine a few times before as there’s a little Parisian cafe nearby and…

12 Days of Christmas Baking- Pastry Edition Day 6: Roast Tomato Tart

I made a Berry Cream Tart earlier this year that was very good, but I thought I’d try a savory tart for today’s recipe. Every time I say Roast Tomato Tart out loud I feel like I can hear Mary Berry saying it. I know they made several tarts on the Great British Bake Off,…

12 Days of Christmas Baking- Pastry Edition Day 3: Cheese Gougeres

When you think of pastries you probably think of sweet treats for breakfast or tea, but there are a lot of french pastries that are savory. Gougères, or french cheese puffs, are a classic savory french pastry and looked like fun! Considering french pastries are known for their difficulty I was relieved to see this…

Bacon-Cheddar-Chive Scones

I love cheddar biscuits so when I saw this recipe for Bacon-Cheddar-Chive Scones in King Arthur’s Baking Companion I knew I needed to try it. Generally speaking, scones are pretty easy to throw together. The hardest part of this recipe is just all of the prep that needs to happen: cook and chop the bacon,…
