If you follow along here on this super spiffy blog, you already know I am an apple lover, or really, a baking with apples lover. So duh of course I’d be captivated by a recipe entitled Apple Fritter Bread. Duh. Not a bread, it’s a quick bread. Well, heh, let’s be honest here, haha, it’s […]
Baking for breakfast, yes, it’s definitely a thing, as we’re quite aware. Now, see, I am not and have never been a morning person, much to the frustration and chagrin of pretty much every morning person I know. Or, everyone. I just can’t. I have tried. I’ve had very early morning jobs. Early classes. Nothing […]
Ahhh, Hot Fudge Pudding Cake. Man. Look, I know, this is not an earth-shattering brand new recipe by any means. Heck, my mom made this for us for as long as I can remember and that’s a mighty long time. You can find just as many versions of this online as you can, well, people. […]

In contemplating what recipe I was in the mood to make and share a […]

There’s a hint of fall in the air, with chilly mornings and evenings, leaves just barely beginning to turn, and freshly picked apples popping up everywhere. We LOVE apples, and look forward to apple season every year. Apple pie is probably our most favorite apple thing to bake (this one AND this one), but we […]
