Spinach-Mozzarella Pie with Parm Crumble
This savory pie from Baking with Dorie has three components and needs some planning ahead. I made the pie dough and parmesan crumble a day in advance.

Iced Spiced Hermits
Ever since I have purchased my copy of Baking with Dorie I have wanted to make these hermit cookies.
