Irish Soda Bread
Happy St. Patrick’s Day! Usually I’d bake some kind of fun dessert but I ran across this recipe for Irish Soda Bread and decided to give it a try. Spoiler alert: this is the easiest bread recipe ever. Well, I take that back, these Cream Biscuits are also super easy. Basically all you do is…

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 8: Baker’s Croissants
I’m starting the new year off with one of the most well-known and time consuming pastries: the croissant. I had the opportunity to eat a delicious freshly-made croissant while in Paris around this time a few years ago and it was heavenly! I didn’t expect these to turn out like those in France, but I…

Overnight Panettone
Last year during my 12 Days of Christmas Baking I made Panettone for the first time and it failed quite miserably. I was determined to try again and made sure I bought the large molds since using the smaller ones last year potentially made things a little more difficult. I’m honestly not sure what all…

Ciabatta Bread
My husband really likes bread bowls, especially with chili or salad, but it’s not something I’ve ever tried to make from scratch. A friend had made this Ciabatta recipe one night for dinner and had mentioned how easy it was so I decided to give it a try. I think I’ve mentioned before that I…

Cranberry Nut Bread
I made Cranberry Bread last year and while it was good I wanted to try a different recipe this time. This is a really simple recipe to throw together: liquids in one bowl, dry ingredients in the other. Mix those together and then gently add walnuts and cranberries. Voila – you’re ready to put this…

Banana Bread
We always seem to have a ton of banana’s in the freezer and while I love the banana bread recipe we grew up making I like to vary things up sometimes. I found this recipe from Pioneer Woman and since I had just gotten a new bundt cake pan I thought this would be the…

Soft Pretzels
I love a good soft pretzel, especially during the fall with some beer cheese or German mustard to help celebrate Oktoberfest! Last year we discovered an amazing sweet german mustard that goes great with soft pretzels as well so if you’re feeling adventerous you should look for that or find a recipe to make it…

Cream Biscuits
If you’re looking for a quick biscuit recipe it can’t get much easier than this recipe! You literally only use 2 ingredients: two! J. Kenji López-Alt does a great job of explaining why this recipe works with only 2 ingredients and there’s the option to add a little sugar to make a sweet shortcake-style biscuits.…

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…
