Dorie describes these as “your favorite chewy oatmeal cookie or the energy bar of your dreams”. My mother-in-law saw the picture of these and thought they looked delicious so of course I made them for her when she came for dinner. I was lucky that I had all the ingredients for this one including the…

Swirled, Spiced Sour Cream Bundt Cake
We have not had cake in a while so this was a nice treat and I can’t remember the last time I made a bundt cake. For the swirl, I omitted the nuts so my son could eat it, I used chopped chocolate the dark kind and my unsweetened cocoa was also dark chocolate. The…
Whip-It-Up-Quick Cornbread
I was happy when this cornbread was chosen for our next recipe in Baking with Dorie as I have a large bag of cornmeal to use up. This was pretty easy to whip up as the name implies. I chose corn, scallions and parsley as my add ins and of course topped with cheese. My…
Steph’s Bakewell Tart
Wow was this good. I have never had a Bakewell Tart before and I am so happy that Steph shared her recipe with Dorie. I think this is a mash-up of a dessert; tart shell, jam and cake on top. A bonus of this dessert is that it is made with almond flour which I…
Grain and Seed Muffins
These Grain and Seed Muffins went with me to work, I shared them with a meeting after the New Year. I guess my co-workers were not into healthy or they were still full from the holidays as only half disappeared. My husband and I enjoyed the rest. These wheat bran muffins are a bit on…
Cheese Puffers
From the Salty Side Up section of Baking with Dorie, we selected these Cheese Puffers. The picture in the book looks oh so yummy. Dorie describes these as a cross between a muffin and a popover. I don’t think we have ever had a popover before so this is a new one for us. I…
Mokonuts’ Rye-Cranberry Chocolate Chunk Cookies
Wow these were so good. Everyone loved them when I served them for dessert. I think these may be my husband’s favorite cookie, he ate two and wanted another. I think it is safe to say that I will be making these again. My husband seems to think that we have baked with rye flour…
Apple Pandowdy
For this single-crust dessert, I decided to use a leaf cookie cutter. It is hard to see but I thought it was a cute addition to this fall dessert. I tried to keep some open space so the juices could evaporate since there was no thickener in this recipe. Mine did not brown much because…
English Muffins
Our second assignment for Baking with Dorie are these lovely English Muffins. I have never made English Muffins before but my husband had. We teamed up to make these since it was quite the process. We made these all in one day but probably should have stretched it out over two, we were grilling English…
Miso-Maple Loaf
And we are off and running with Dorie’s latest book Baking with Dorie. The book releases October 19 and Tuesdays with Dorie is celebrating the release with baking one of the recipes. This recipe is a unique take on the loaf cake made with miso, maple syrup and orange. This was delicious and I could…
