This summer I took unintentional hiatus both from baking and blogging. However with fall weather in the air (a crisp 40 degrees this morning with wind), I suddenly have started baking again. On the menu in my house is this fabulous cobbler with plums, peaches and apricots. I tend to use the same pastry recipeContinue reading “Back at Baking!”

Store Handpies
I’m a bit late in posting these beautiful hand pies that I bought at the supermarket. Actually very, very late. I bought these in November. I fully intended to make hand pies that weekend but the weekend was too busy as we suddenly had COVID in the house. Everyone is better now and the handContinue reading “Store Handpies”
Apple Pizza
Tonight I made a dessert that I had many years ago called Apple Pizza. My coworker made it in our office kitchen. Super simple as it is a can of Pillsbury pizza dough with apple pie filling on top. You then add a homemade streusel topping and also caramel, if you’d like. I’m adding theContinue reading “Apple Pizza”
Sunday Morning Easy
Sunday mornings are special days in my house with a big brunch. We traditionally make a Turkish breakfast with boiled eggs, feta cheese, crusty bread, cucumbers, tomatoes, olives, and what ever else I can pull together. This morning I tried two new recipes for a mixed fruit cobbler and sour dough waffles. The cobbler recipeContinue reading “Sunday Morning Easy”
Twin Pies
I made two pies as gifts yesterday evening. By the time this posts, the pies will have been gifted and completely consumed. Recently I took the Irish Apple Tart class that Kate McDermott offered through the 92Y. You may have noticed that my baking strategy is that I intensely make a class pie after takingContinue reading “Twin Pies”
Blueberry Cobbler
I made a morning breakfast cobbler using blueberries and a quickly made Cobbler topping. You certainly could make this using canned pie filling, which I’ve done in a pinch. This is one of my son’s absolute favorites. Ingredient3 c. blueberries3 T. sugar⅓ c. orange juice⅔ c. flour¼ t. baking powderpinch of salt½ c. butter, softened½Continue reading “Blueberry Cobbler”
PI Day Pie
Happy PI Day! A maze of numbers decorates my PI Day Pie. This year I made a cherry pie, which reminds me of the cherry turnovers of my childhood. Enjoy pie today!
Swanski’s PI Pie
I blog a lot about my favorite local bakery! This morning they posted photos of their PI day mixed berry pie. Of course, I’m a sucker for pie and need very little reason to not indulge. This weekend I’m planning to make a pumpkin pie for PI day as well as some tiny empandas (handContinue reading “Swanski’s PI Pie”
Ski Championship Pie
Ski championships happened this past weekend from my daughter. There was a huge potluck amongst all of the teams. I made two pies with a Pear and Raspberry filling. I decorated the top with snowflakes on top and the word “ski”! I used Ken Haedrich’s Recipe for both the filling and the crust from hisContinue reading “Ski Championship Pie”
Hand Pies
I volunteered to bring hand pies for the end of year ski banquet but I’ve never made them before. This was a quick attempt using store-bought pie crust and store bought filling.
