I love muffins. Lots of yummy crust, perfectly proportioned for a handy individual serving. I improvised a bit tonight and can up with this little gem. My boys said it was nearly as good as the Black Pepper cheddar muffins I like to make. Here’s the goods: 1 c yellow cornmeal 1 c unbleached all […]

Here it is, folks! The famous Holiday Bread! This is the most awesome bread ever! It tastes a bit like a pizza and is fantastic for leftover turkey sandwiches. If there’s anything left over, that is. Tradition requires that you mess it up a bit, but even so, it always turns out great. The dough […]

I have been making focaccia for several years. I take a loaf out of the oven, and it is gone by the end of the day. Often in an hour or less. I make this version of Focaccia all the time, and I stand by it, but I recently came across a more authentic technique […]

And when we are, we like to party a bit by eating pizza and watching a movie together. Since we started making pizza at […]

I got this recipe from my dear friend Blondie, and since then, we make this several times a month. The only thing that prevents us from making these is a lack of over-ripe bananas on hand. Sometimes we eat through the whole bunch before they are ripe enough! Blondie also gave me another great idea: […]

This recipe yields a truly delicious pancake that just melts in your mouth. I buy these massive containers of Ricotta cheese at Sam’s Club, and never have a hard time using it up between Italian cooking, cookies, and pancakes. The price is the same as a regular sized container from the grocery store, and it […]

These are savory muffins which is such a nice change from the typical sweet muffin. I think they are lovely with soup. The muffin top is especially delicious with all the browned cheese. My kids all love this muffin. Some kids are bothered by pepper; if so, you could reduce the pepper in the recipe. […]

I have been experimenting with Cornbread for many years and I think I have finally come up with a recipe I really like. I have tested it on family and friends and all agree it is yummy! It is a little sweeter and denser than what I grew up on (I had Southern Style cornbread […]
