I would have loved to try this in a skillet but I was traveling and taking this to-go so the springform pan worked better for me. This gingerbread cake is a wallop of flavors. It includes both all-purpose and whole wheat flours. Warm ingredients of molasses and brown sugar. Crystalized ginger a third of a…

Cocoa-Cranberry Linzer Tart
We have made a few things similar to this dessert. We have made Cocoa Linzer Cookies from Baking Chez Moi and Thanksgiving Bars from Dorie’s Cookies. This is the first time we have made a linzer tart. The cocoa dough includes all-purpose flour and almond flour, cocoa and chopped chocolate. The filling includes fresh cranberries…
My Favorite Pumpkin Pie
Out of all the things we bake in this group I would say that pies are my weakest dish especially the crust. Rolling the dough and preventing the shrinkage in blind baking are still elusive to me. Since my crust shrunk I had extra filling enough to fill two 8 ounce ramekins, my husband wasn’t…
Fall Harvest Cake
This week’s recipe comes from Dorie’s newest cookbook Dorie’s Anytime Cakes. Her chapters are very cute and this one comes from Cakes with Corners. After reading the ingredients, I knew my husband would love it as it included some of his favorites. Don’t let this ‘cake with corners’ fool you, it is quite complex. Lemon…
Custardy Apple and Kale Cake
This week’s selection comes from the Salty Side Up, of Baking with Dorie. She describes it as almost pudding, hum how intriguing. The recipe calls for an 8-inch springform but I only had a 9-inch one. I decided to use my 8-inch cake pan so the dish would be the right size. I didn’t want…
The Daily Bread: White Bread Edition
We are making bread this week on Tuesdays with Dorie. From her cookbook Baking with Dorie, she says this is the recipe to start with when beginning to make bread. I seem to only make bread when it is assigned and I don’t know why. This recipe was easy to follow and with good results….
Cocoa-Swirled Pumpkin Bundt
A new season, a new cookbook. This week on Tuesdays with Dorie we are introducing Dorie’s Anytime Cakes. Thank you to Dorie who provided us with this recipe to make on her launch day for the new book. It has been a while since I have made a bundt cake, so it was nice to…
Double-Apple Picnic Pie
This week on Tuesdays with Dorie we are making picnic pies. Dorie describes a picnic pie as “large, slim, fruit filled pastries, built in low-rimmed pans..” Since I was not cooking for a crowd I decided to use a traditional pie pan. My family was not too keen on a pear pie so I turned…
Tenderest Shortbread Four Ways
Lately I have been in clean out mode so for our next recipe from Baking with Dorie I decided to make two of the four recipes since I had ingredients to use up. First up I made the Spelt-Flax Shortbread. My spelt flour has been languishing in my refrigerator for far too long so I…
Devil’s Food Party Cake
This week’s recipe comes from Baking with Dorie. I decided to make this party cake for our Labor Day celebration. This cake is definitely for the chocolate lover 🍫. I thought my cakes were too slim to cut in half so I left this as a two-layer cake. This was a nice moist and chocolatey…
