This Dessert Turns Any Dinner Into a Festive Occasion

I think this amazing crumble should be mandatory at every family gathering, holiday meal and special occasion. Ever since I found this recipe over at The Wednesday Chef, I have been trying to find excuses to make this twice a week. Not that I would really need an excuse to make a mind-blowing dessert, but I kinda feel guilty for always eating half the batch myself.

Over the years I’ve tried various crumbles; some have turned out amazing, some – not so much. The first time I was making this I knew by the aromas alone that this was going to be a winner. My whole family loved it so much, they almost had a fight over the last portion!

There is one ingredient that I think makes all the difference in the flavor, and that’s the candied ginger. I hadn’t used that in crumbles before so I had my doubts about it. It turned out delicious! I am definitely going to be making a double batch of this stuff over the holidays!

No Napkins Needed – You’ll Want To Lick Your Fingers Clean

When I was little, my grandmother used to make these amazing sticky buns almost every week. She would always come over and bring us some, and I guess that’s why my mother never made them herself. When my grandmother passed away and we were going through her belongings, we came across her recipe. It was handwritten, and unfortunately so worn out that we couldn’t make of all the ingredients and amounts.

But a couple of years later my Mom got another recipe from her neighbor – she said they tasted exactly like grandma’s sticky buns and she was so happy, it made her cry. Of course I had to have the recipe immediately so that I could give it a go myself!

Oh my goodness. These turned out so amazing that I couldn’t even believe it! I made another batch the next week, but instead of the caramel pecan topping I added a sugar glaze. They are delicious either way!

Ain’t Nobody Got Time For Kneading!

Ladies and gentlemen, here’s the busy mom’s or a lazy cook’s ideal recipe for homemade bread! Everyone knows how delicious homemade bread is, but let’s face it. Who has the time and the energy to do all that work for a delicious loaf? Not me, that’s for sure! Occasionally I bake a loaf or two, but then I just get back to my old ways and end up buying bread from the store. It just isn’t the same thing.

I have tried a few no-knead recipes, especially for dinner rolls. They’ve turned out tasty but I’ve been craving for a bread recipe that would be as easy to make as they are.

However, I’ve kind of had the feeling that those no-knead breads wouldn’t be very good. I was worried they would turn out dry – or even worse, hard as a brick. I was talking to the lady next door and she said she had just the perfect recipe for me. I had my doubts… but she convinced me to give it a try.

And guess what? This really is the easiest and tastiest homemade bread on the planet!

The tastiest carrot cake you’ll EVER make.

You’ll never guess how old I was when I had a taste of carrot cake for the first time. I was in my twenties! I know – it’s crazy that I had managed to live my life completely unaware of this amazing cake.

I can tell you, once I had tried it, there was no going back. It was pure love at first sight (and bite), and over the years I’ve tried so many carrot cake recipes that I’ve lost count. They’ve all been yummy, and I don’t think it’s possible to find a carrot cake I didn’t like. However, I still keep trying new recipes because sometimes that leads to amazing results.

That’s exactly what happened when I made this carrot cake. This is a very traditional, classic recipe and I have no idea what it is that made this turn out so mind-blowing! The ingredients are all familiar, so I think it must be that the ratio of these ingredients is just absolutely perfect in this one.

Whatever the case, I would highly recommend giving this recipe a try! It might be the only one you’ll ever need!

Quick Tip: Make this cake up to a few days ahead! The flavors will only get better.

The scent of homemade bread baking in my grandmother’s oven was one of my favorite things about her old farmhouse. Even while I was outside playing on my tire swing, I could still smell that fresh aroma wafting through the open kitchen window. It was heavenly.

After many years of trying to mimic grandma’s breadmaking skills, I’ve finally come up with a recipe that works like a charm. It’s almost as good as grandma’s…almost. The good thing about this whole wheat bread recipe is that it isn’t too complex to make. It’s also a very smooth bread, so if you have people in your home who prefer white over wheat, they probably won’t even know the difference except for the color.

Quick Tip: This bread goes great with homemade jam or raw honey and butter.
