Apple, Breakfast, Cake, Coffee Cake, Quick Bread, Recipes

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 […]

Apple Pancake Bowls


Apple, Breakfast, Recipes

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 […]

Easy Lemon Bars


Brownies & Bars, Fruit, Recipes

Pucker up, pals!  It’s Lemon Bar day! Pucker up further, these are easy peasy lemon haha squeezy and loaded, loaded I say, with happy lemony goodness.   Honestly, I never thought it possible to find a good lemon bar.  Or, I should rephrase — I had yet to find a truly tasty, truly lemony, not […]

Extraordinary Lemon Cake


Breakfast, Cake, Fruit, Quick Bread, Recipes

I can’t stop eating this cake. It’s light, yet moist, and intensely lemony—which is unusual in a lemon cake and what makes this one outstanding. And I kind of stumbled upon it by accident. Earlier this week, my husband had a function to attend that required baked goods. Since I had a big ol’ bag […]

Butter Cookies


Cookies, Dairy Free, Holiday, Recipes, Vegan

I’mma keep a’-rollin’ on a cookie theme here and share a Marshall family favorite.  We love these Butter Cookies like mad, especially my brother. I’ve entered this recipe in the Chicago Tribune’s annual cookie contest twice now but unfortunately readers must feel these are too boring to vote for.  Which is unreasonably ridiculous because there […]

Apple Mosaic Tart

Ooooooooh glorious apple season.  The joyous gift that keeps on giving!  Such as this Apple Mosaic Tart! Oh but did you see Jen’s Crock Pot Applesauce?!  What’s better than homemade applesauce, amiright?! Ok, don’t be intimidated by this apple tart though.  It does look uber fancy and may give an air of unachievable but in […]

Apple Coffee Cake


Apple, Breakfast, Cake, Coffee Cake, Fruit, Recipes

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 […]

Exceptional Zucchini Bread


Bread, Breakfast, Cake, Fruit, Quick Bread, Recipes

We’ve been so fabulously seasonal lately here on Flaky Bakers, with our Blueberry Cheesecake Pie, Fresh Blueberry Pie, and (for our furry family members) Peanut Butter and Blueberry Pupcakes. As blueberry season is winding down, it seemed only right to head into zucchini season with a zucchini bread recipe. Last fall, my friend Kayte had […]

Jammin’ Jam Bars


Apple, Berries, Brownies & Bars, Cookies, Dairy Free, Fruit, Gluten Free, Recipes

The first thing you should know about this recipe is, just like the Vanilla Buttermilk Cookies, these jam bars are hard to stop eating. I mean, you don’t think it’s going to be a problem when you’re making them, but then you’ve let them cool, cut into them, and you’re taking that first bite of […]
