Sweet, sweet friends – hi! Thanks for stopping by for today’s recipe: Roasted Pecan Apple Pie with Cinnamon Crumble. Today marks the 15th day of our Covid-19 induced self-isolation. For the most part, we’re doing pretty fine. We’re keeping busy, trying to limit the number of …
I know what you’re thinking: more pie? Can’t she even go four posts before blogging about pie again? Well, it would seem that I can’t. Having said that, this isn’t just any pie – this is a cider caramel apple pie from Erin’s fabulous book ‘The …
It’s time to admit it: I am addicted to making pie. I can barely go a week without making some form or other. Double crust, single crust, pie-crumble hybrids, hand pies. Usually all-butter dough, but sometimes a buttermilk flavoured one. All types of fillings are …
Is it entirely blasphemous to say that I was never really all that into strawberries? I’d snack on them if they were sitting in front of me, I’d enjoy them as the garnish, but I was never entirely wowed. Clearly, I had never had a …
Today’s post was originally an incredibly delicious Maple Syrup Apple Upside-down Cake, but it was just so damn ugly that I simply couldn’t bring myself to actually share it. I’d already edited the photos & written the post, but I just couldn’t post it. Is …
Now that the Pumpkin Pie post is out of the way, we can finally talk about pie that actually tastes as good as it looks. Hallelujah! Welcome to part three of the apple fest, friends! Like all good things, it’s salted and pumped full of autumnal …
Welcome to part two of the apple fest! Part one saw us making some Apple Spiced Doughnuts, and this time I bring you cake! Glorious Rustic Apple Cake. It originally started as ‘Cinnamon Apple Cake with Browned Butter Frosting’, but thankfully I realised I needed a …
Well, I warned you in my last post, but I have a hell of a lot of apple bakes coming your way. First up: Spiced Apple Doughnuts. I really tried to stay away from my usual apple bakes, because there’s already a lot of apple …
When do you really become an adult? Is it when you offer to host the Christmas dinner party in your house? Or is it when you spend over 7 hours (I kid you not) making lists of the different food possibilities you could make, the …
I know. You got me. I left the blog to fend for itself. Again. So maybe we missed the month of October, but that’s only because I couldn’t think of anything good to bake for Halloween. It may also have had something to do with …
Hi friends! How are you this fine Sunday? I took some time out over the last week to remake and whip into shape a comforting old favourite: Classic Apple Pie. Because really, shouldn’t we be able to make pie all year long? It had been …
College is beginning to catch up with me. I’m only two assignments into the semester & I already feel as if I’m drowning beneath the weight of it all. Not to be dramatic or anything, but I might not make it out alive. This final …
Sometimes things happen. And sometimes, these things can change your life. A thing like falling for someone & spending two years with them, barely noticing the time go by. Things like going out of your way to do something nice for this person, just because …
We’re getting to my favourite time of year. When you wear at least three layers at all times & wrap up against the cold. When you bring your umbrella everywhere. When you snuggle up by the fire at night. (When you secretly wear comfy cozy …
The last week has been such a blur of activity, I didn’t find time to publish this post that’s been sitting, half written, in my drafts since the middle of last week. It was a weird week for me. Although I’ve been on my summer …
With Father’s Day fast approaching (three days away, for the unorganized amongst you), I thought I’d share a recipe that dad loved. Last week, I made these Apple & Raspberry Crumble Bars – and my dad totally adored them! I’ll definitely be making them again …
Don’t you just love mornings during the summer? The sun shining through the curtains, sitting out in the garden in your shorts & baggy t-shirt before even thinking about breakfast. Summer mornings are simple – there’s no rush to be out of the house in …
Good morning, friends! How are you this fine Sunday? Boyfriend and I are taking it super easy this morning after entertaining in our house last night for the first time in a long time! We had my family over for an early Father’s Day dinner …
