This week on Tuesdays with Dorie we are making breakfast biscuits. These biscuits are similar to a scone recipe I make. This version uses plain yogurt and milk as the dairy portion, my recipe uses sour cream and an egg yolk. The dry ingredients include flour, baking powder, salt and soda. Lemon zest is rubbed…

Alsatian-Style Blueberry Tart
Bottom of the par-baked tart shell is covered with almond flour, sugar and cinnamon. Three and half cups of fresh blueberries go on top and is baked for thirty minutes. After the thirty minute bake, one egg, half of cup of heavy cream, vanilla and salt go on top. The whole thing is baked again…
Blueberry Lemony Yogurt Muffins
I have been struggling to get back into the swing of blogging since I returned from vacation. I have been baking right along but writing about it seems to be the issue. A new wrinkle this week my son moved out and I am now officially an empty-nester which seems to be particularly challenging for…
Blueberry Pie
The tale of two pies. I made this mixed berry pie when we were all doing our own recipes during the pandemic. It was a soupy mess and I did not want to repeat it. This summer I purchased a Costco mixed berry pie for research purposes 🙂 to compare the two. Costco had the…
Nectarine-Berry Cobbler
Since I am going to make a berry pie later this month I decided to go with Dorie’s Playing Around suggestion and I made a Nectarine-Berry Cobbler. A cobbler is a combination of fruit and biscuits and Dorie’s version includes cottage cheese in her biscuits. A quick search of my blog and I discovered that…
Berry Flognarde
“A flognarde (flow-nyard) is a custardy French dessert of fruit baked in a batter that most resembles the mix you would use to make crepes.” I used blueberries to make my flognarde. I had previously made a cherry clafoutis (a tart of fruit, typically cherries, baked in a sweet batter) and I am not sure…
Crumb-Topped Ricotta Coffee Cake
We are well aware of the magic of ricotta cheese in baked goods. One of our favorite breakfast items is lemon ricotta pancakes. In this recipe the cake batter is very thick which held up the berries quite nicely. I always fear a soggy cake with fruit but this was not a problem here. The…
Father’s Day Blueberry-Cherry Pie
Pies are beloved in my house. Every year I make a cherry pie for summer and a blueberry cranberry pie for winter. These are our favorites and I have tried and true recipes. Dorie’s Father’s Day Pie combines two of our favorite berries into one pie. I am used to using pectin as a thickener…
Sablé Breton Galette with Berries
I have made sablés (cookie) and I have made galettes (pie) but I have not made a sablé galette. I made the galette dough and the lemon curd the day before and chilled it overnight so all I had to do was bake and assemble the next day. I rolled out the galette dough into…
Blueberry – Mascarone Roulade
From Around My French Table by Dorie Greenspan, I made this roulade for Mother’s Day. It is one of the many desserts I have not had a chance to make from this book yet. A dessert with fresh blueberries seemed just right for spring time. It is a sponge cake baked, rolled in a towel…
