Apple Crumble (#Unprocessed)

2012-10-01_AppleCrumbleUnprocessed-250px

With a baby due in less than a week, I may be slightly out of my mind, but I’ve decided to take the October Unprocessed pledge. I have been back and forth on it for quite a while, knowing that it’s not realistic to expect to be able to eat 100% unprocessed for the whole…

Apple Crumble Pie

Fall is officially here! I hope you are as excited as I am about that. But, even if you aren’t, I think this apple crumble pie will help to get you in the mood. Lately I can’t get enough pie… I’m not talking about just eating pie (though, I have enjoyed a slice or two). …

Caramel Apple Coffee Cake

I think pumpkin is one of the first flavors that comes to mind when I think of fall… Apples are a close second, especially when they are paired with spices like cinnamon and cardamom.  Add caramel into the mix, and I am a very happy girl.  So, naturally, I had to put my spiced caramel…

Spiced Caramel Sauce

I am having trouble holding off on the fall recipes this year.  I have to admit that I was breaking out the fall spices (and even some pumpkin from the freezer) a few weeks ago! I held off on sharing any recipes too early on, though… I didn’t want you to lose all respect for…

Spiced Zucchini Apple Muffins

It’s that time of year again… Kids are headed back to school, fall scented candles are on sale at Target, and my garden is still bursting with zucchini.  Fall is around the corner, but it’s not quite hear yet. While I am welcoming fall (especially the cooler weather!) with open arms this year, I know…

Friday Favorites – Simple Bites Edition (Episode 130)

You may have noticed that I’ve dropped the ball on Friday Favorites for the last few weeks…  I have been pretty busy and it just slipped my mind.  Imagine that! But, this week, I am happy to say that the Friday Favorites are back with a fresh set of picks from the lovely Aimée from…

Carrot Pistachio Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting

2012-03-22_CarrotPistachioCake-250px

Yesterday I shared my baking woes with you… I told you all about how I scrambled my husband’s birthday cake and shared a list of what not to do when you’re baking a cake.  So, it may seem a bit surprising to you that today I am going to share the recipe for the scrambled…

Ginger Carrot Muffins

In my mind, there are two kinds of muffins… Unfrosted cupcakes and muffins. You know what I’m talking about… There are those “muffins” that you find at bakeries and coffee shops that are not much different than a rich chocolate cupcake.  The difference is that they are usually larger than a cupcake and don’t have…

Cardamom Coffee Cake

2012-02-06_CardamomCake-250px

When I saw this Cardamom Coffee Cake on the Red Star Yeast website, I was excited for two reasons.  First, I loved that the recipe used yeast to leaven the cake, but required no kneading. I certainly don’t mind kneading dough, but I was eager to try a no knead recipe. And the second reason? I adore…

Molasses Crinkles – Food Blogger Cookie Swap

2011-12-11_MolassesCrinkles-250px

The holidays just aren’t complete without some cookies. Don’t you agree? Anyone who reads my blog regularly knows that I love to bake… And, I especially love cookies. So, when I saw some tweets about the Great Food Blogger Cookie Swap hosted by Julie from The Little Kitchen and Lindsay from Love and Olive Oil,…
