Despite the miles between, it appears Jen and I share the same baking brain. Jen with her fabulously flexible Everyday Basic Muffins and then me with Cinnamon Sugar Breakfast Puffs. Huh. Guess we’ve got breakfast goodies on the brain! Please tell me you’ve already baked Jen’s Maple Coffee Cake with Oat Streusel and are in […]
I don’t make muffins very often—I’m more of a coffee cake or quick bread kind of gal mostly because they’re less work. Not that muffins are labor intensive, mind you. Nope, I’m just lazy. I’d rather grease and flour one cake or bread pan and pour all the batter into it than grease the edges […]
I’ve been MIA on Flaky Bakers for the past seven weeks which you may or may not have noticed because Becky has been killing it week after week with fabulous recipes like these Boston Cream Pie Cupcakes (drool) or this Prized Pumpkin Pie (which I made for Thanksgiving, and it was gobbled up faster than […]
Let us not forget our furry four-legged barrels of fun this pumpkin season, shall we? It’s Pumpkin & Peanut Butter Pupcakes! Yay! Yes, going for a non-bipedal treat today. You could eat these yourself though if you wanted to. Finn, our dopey nutcase, came into our lives right near exactly four years ago at a […]
Ya know, one of the bestest things about this spiffy baking blog of ours is that I finally have an excuse to rip-roar through the myriad of goodies I have always wanted to bake but never had a chance to. Now I do. Woot! So thank you! Thank you for being here! Then, eeerrrrtttt, I […]
I must admit, I’m a wee loathe to give this one up. But it’s sooo good, I think the world should enjoy the yumminess that is my Grandma’s Honey Cake. Before we roll along though, did you see Jen’s Lazy Peach Crisp-Cobbler? Holy moly, Mike has shot me fifty+ stinky side eyes of the make-this-now […]
Hey, it’s block party season in Chicago! Woot! This will make sense, hang on. Truthfully, I was cloooose to sharing a chocolate goodie with you and no doubt we’re gonna be sharing A LOT of chocolate goodies with you and Jen shared her awesomely fun Best Damn Chocolate Cake last week so I thought I’d […]
We have a constant supply of bananas in the house, and despite the fact that my kids are part fruit bat, we often end up with some getting overripe. Depending on the time of year, this happens once in a great while or every week (I’m looking at you, summer). I’d swear bananas are going […]
What do I want to do when it’s ninety five degrees outside with a heat index of one hundred? Bake. I’m rolling my eyes too. It’s hot! Stupid hot. And I’m baking! Whaaaat am I thinking?! Weirdo is right. But this is a must, a must-bake, an annual requirement I cheerfully fulfill. It’s […]
I love these scones. Love love love love love. And love is probably an understatement. Is this the best scone recipe out in the world? Um. I dunno actually as I made these once and I have never made any other, that’s how much I love them. Which is funny too as I have about […]
