  • Invisible apple cake (Gâteau invisible)

    • EmilyR on November 20, 2024

      You know when something is going to hell, but you are committed and just want to see it through? That was this cake for me. I started by testing out new kitchen aid peelers and spiralizers before realizing that would give 1/8 and not 1/16 thick slices, so in it went to the food processor leaving me with this apple shrapnel. Way more work than necessary, but thin enough to meld in. I also didn’t have whole milk, so I improvised with heavy cream (3/4 c) and buttermilk (1/4). I know this sounds like an AllRecipes review where the person amends everything and then wonders why they didn’t enjoy it or it didn’t work. The slice photo in the book almost looks chilled, but it also had braoder apple slices. The taste is surprisingly light and mine was not dense, but perhaps I will try this again following the accurate way with better results. I tried with my limited resources of the day. Do this with time and patience.

  • Chocolate olive oil cake

    • stef on November 17, 2024

      A nice moist cake. Using light olive oil didn't leave a strong oil taste. Baked in 40 minutes. It was enjoyed with vanilla ice cream.

  • Banana-hazelnut bread

    • stef on November 02, 2024

      Half of this recipe is made in the food processor. Didn't have hazelnuts so used walnuts. This is a very smooth bread with a sprinkle of walnuts on top. It has a taste of honey to it. I reduced the sugars a bit and it was still sweet. We liked it.

  • Peanut butter-miso cookies

    • stef on November 03, 2024

      A more complex cookie than the usual peanut butter. Sweet with the salty taste kicking in. Turbinado sugar adds a carmalized taste. Crisp on the edges but chewy center.

  • Upside-down tomato tart with Parmesan pastry

    • cookingbychapter on October 31, 2024

      This was good! I actually found it tasted better after a couple small modifications. After baking and cooling, it tasted just ok. So, I sprinkled some Italian seasoning & garlic & herb seasoning over the tomatoes and then shredded more parm on top. I threw it back in the oven to warm it up and it tasted so much better. Totally addictive and the crust was extra flaky and delicious. Will definitely make again this way.
