Double Dipped Apple Doughnuts

November 13, 2011

Given the choice between being home and not being home… I’m the girl that always chooses home. Brooklyn is amazing.  San Francisco is delicious.  Baltimore is bonkers.  Home is my heart.  Home is where I keep my jar of Sharpie markers, my clean white sheets with the familiar smell, and my giant mankitten. Home is [...]

Super Simple Roasted Apples

October 27, 2011

Under no circumstances do I want you to come to this blog, read it, and leave with the sense that I have my act together.  I don’t have my act together.  If it looks for a moment like I have my act together… I’m just barely holding on.  Hear these words. I was reading a [...]

Apple Cinnamon Coffee Cake

October 12, 2011

Now is not the time to be thinking about New Year’s Resolutions.  Ignore the plastic Christmas trees at Costco… we still have time.  We have months.  The year is not over yet.  We can totally take it easy. I don’t like New Year’s Resolutions.  They’re totally unrealistic, right?  I feel like my best intentions of [...]

Carrot Apple Ginger Soup

April 27, 2011

Sometimes I just want to eat a color. …Does that make sense?  Does that ever happen in your brain? Usually I want to eat things that are green (kale), milky (coffee), made of booze, made of chocolate, or made of pie. For some reason, yesterday I wanted something orange and spicy. I made soup.  Because [...]

Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal Cookies

December 20, 2010

I know everything is supposed to be  red and green and blue and white this time of year. I know… But look for brown and delicious I made everything? Ok… I’m being weird.  Mostly because I, for some reason, can’t bring myself to make Christmas tree sugar cookies.  I just don’t want to do it. [...]

Vegan Pumpkin Cranberry Apple Pecan Everything Bread

November 12, 2010

I decided to make apple muffins…. then I thought cranberry bread would be a better idea. I wanted pumpkin pecan pancakes…. then I thought that plain old cinnamon toast would be the best idea ever. Instead… I just combined every possible holiday flavor into this vegan quick bread. I did that, and I’m glad I [...]

Apple Tarte Tatin

September 26, 2010

Everything about this Apple Tarte Tatin is a good idea. Everything except the scalding hot sugar, the super heavy 400 degree cast iron skillet… and the fact that you somehow have to flip that skillet and all of its contents out onto a serving platter. Ok… maybe not eeeeeverything about this tart is a good [...]

Apple Walnut Flax Seed Bread

March 25, 2010

I made y’all some bread. Some big, fat, in your face, whole wheat apple bread.  It’s the kind of bread that will kick your morning coffee in the face… with love and respect. I like to do things with love and respect… even if it’s yelling at the Los Angeles traffic gods… or channeling my [...]

My Favorite Fall Recipes

November 8, 2009

  Autumn is settling in.  Autumn has settled in, and here I am ready to accept it.  I’m also ready to accept the fact that my days in the kitchen are about to dramatically increase (if you can believe that) as my cravings for apple crisp (lovelovelovelovelovelovelove), pumpkin cookies and cranberry treats become harder to [...]

Spiced Apple Cake

October 12, 2009

I sometimes wish that my future self could just pop into my present world just to… you know… say hi, and let me know that everything in the future is going along just swimmingly.  That never happens, but maybe I just haven’t given future me enough guidance.  With this in mind…  here’s a quick letter [...]

Apple Pie Granita

July 20, 2009

I like you.  I like you a lot.  I mean it… and I don’t think I’ve told you in a while.  Sweet.  I’m glad you’re here. Would now be a good time to tell you that I have a serious, though not lasting, aversion to my kitchen these days?   I have an even more serious [...]

All Purpose Holiday Cake

November 3, 2008

It’s November, and that means that we’ve undeniably entered the holiday season. In my world that means lots of family, lot of parties and eating a ridiculous, almost painful amount of food. Cocktail parties. Tacky Christmas sweater parties. Surprise guests and…. my oh my… is it too early to be this excited? Despite all of [...]

Sit and Stay Awhile Apple Crisp

October 22, 2008

Some recipes are good enough to serve at the church picnic. Some recipes are fine enough to take to the family barbecue. Other recipes you know will satisfy your office coworkers. Those savages will eat just about anything. Then there’s the recipe that you pull out of your back pocket when you’re looking for love. [...]

Russian Grandmothers’ Apple Pie Cake

March 10, 2008

The title to both this post and this dessert is a little hum drum.  Russian Grandmothers’ Apple Pie Cake… it just doesn’t set off fireworks in my head.  And frankly, I always feel a bit off put when apostrophes are in strange places (here I am considering s’ strange).  I was an English major in [...]

Joy the Baker. The Podcast, 1.

February 26, 2008

I love to cook. I like to share. I have watched countless hours of cooking shows, and I have a camera. All of those things can only add up to one thing: I made a podcast! My first leap into podcast land is with Brown Sugar Apple Cheesecake. You’ll see the cake made from start [...]
