Notes about Recipes in this book

• Banana chocolate chip muffins

  • vickster on March 05, 2015

    Delicious muffins! But mine stuck in the pan and then most of the tops came off. Not sure why because the pan seemed plenty greasy. Probably will use liners next time.

  • emiliang on April 27, 2013

    Used semi-sweet mini chocolate chips. Nutty, sweet, tangy. Superb.

  • Karen_S. on March 24, 2021

    Used my cast iron muffin pan on the first batch. They came out tasting GREAT, but I think the pan didn't let some of them cook properly. Next time I'll use the regular muffin pan. Will definitely try again. // Used mini chocolate chips. // Was missing Allspice - will make again when I get more. // Also, I used all AP flour.

• A very light fruitcake

  • vickster on December 28, 2013

    My first attempt at fruitcake, and it was delicious. I used a variety of fruit: candied cherries, candied pineapple, a container of "fruitcake fruit", currants. Also added walnuts and brushed cakes with brandy.

• Now or later pizza

  • annieski on July 10, 2016

    Great recipe. This is my go-to. It's easy to halve or double. I replace the suggested dough enhancer with instant potato flakes.

• Carrot cake

  • sgump on November 30, 2011

    Lovely! Reduced eggs from 4 to 3; replaced 1 cup oil with 1 cup unsweetened applesauce; used a scant 3/4 cup brown sugar + a scant 1 cup granulated sugar for the sugar; added a few drops of coconut extract (along with the vanilla); and used all the add-ins: chopped walnuts, shredded coconut, crushed pineapple, raisins (plumped in apple cider: some of the excess was intended to compensate for the missing egg)--plus a grated Golden Delicious apple. Baked in a rectangular aluminum pan at temperature and for time listed. Browned nicely and pulled away from the sides of the pan upon cooling. Prepared a frosting of cream cheese, a touch of butter, and apple cider (reduced to a syrup with a cinnamon stick: I stirred about 1/3 cup granulated sugar into the syrup at the end so I wouldn't have to forage for the powdered sugar). Moist, flavorful, and quite delicious! Will make again, I'm sure.

  • Mlr5 on April 07, 2021

    Made recipe exactly as instructed (9x13) using the coconut and pineapple but no raisins. It was so moist and tasty and delicious. Lots of compliments and even a few requests for the recipe. Will definitely make this again! (But will line with parchment because it did stick a little)

• Apricot cream cheese scones

  • redbird on November 22, 2020

    Add 1/4 cup crystallized ginger with dried apricots.

  • Seanruss on June 16, 2020

    Good, but not awesome

• Crumb coffeecake

  • milgwimper on July 02, 2014

    This was a simple and delicious cake. We couldn't get enough!

  • twoyolks on April 25, 2016

    This is close to a perfect coffee cake. It's rich and flavorful without overdoing it. The crumb is actually taller than the cake itself.

  • thetinkhams on September 28, 2019

    First edition errata: weight of flour should be 10½ oz Source: errata sheet received from King Arthur with my cookbook.

  • thetinkhams on October 13, 2019

    Made this today. Our favorite coffeecake, and super easy to make. We do it in a 9x13 pan.

• Apple crumble

  • milgwimper on July 02, 2014

    This was simple and delicious. Well received by family who do not like pies!

• Banana bread

  • milgwimper on November 29, 2011

    Very good banana bread. I use this or the one in Cook's Illustrated. I think they are somewhat similar. I like the texture of the bread.

  • clkandel on October 29, 2014

    Very light texture, especially for a quick bread.

  • Rachaelsb on May 29, 2021

    Always in search of perfect banana bread. This was good-nice high rise but banana flavor wasn't as strong as I hoped.

  • mharriman on December 31, 2019

    I’m always on the hunt for a great banana bread. This one turned out better than some I’ve made but not the best ever. It’s a lighter banana bread and satisfying, especially with chopped walnuts, but I’d like more of a banana feel in my mouth. I really liked the step by step clear instructions. First time using this cookbook( Christmas gift).

  • Barb_N on April 29, 2018

    Great back pocket recipe as long as there are bananas in the freezer. Subbed in some buckwheat flour as I was low on AP flour but 2/3 c was not enough to be detectable. Added in chocolate chips. If there’s any left after today, I’m looking forward to the banana bread french toast!

  • Lepa on May 30, 2020

    This is a solid banana bread- not too sweet- but also not particularly exciting or special.

  • SpatulaCity on February 20, 2023

    Totally respectable banana bread. Even though I used a bit more banana than the recipe called for, it didn’t have a strong banana flavor. Not too sweet - maybe next time would sprinkle some sugar on top. I liked that the loaf had plenty of leavening to keep it light and lofty.

  • hbakke on April 15, 2021

    Pretty basic banana bread. Mine turned out a bit drier than I would have liked and wasn't very moist. I'm still on the hunt for the perfect banana bread recipe.

  • thetinkhams on September 28, 2019

    First edition errata: stir in walnuts at same time as yogurt. Source: errata sheet received from King Arthur with my cookbook.

  • amgenove on January 22, 2023

    Definitely one of the best banana bread recipes I've tried. Solid!

• The simple but perfect pancake

  • milgwimper on September 18, 2014

    This was nice, and easy to make with kids. It is also pretty forgiving. We made these years ago and I remember being enthusiastic after eating them, but I might have to go back into the kitchen and try these again.

  • twoyolks on January 10, 2016

    These are simple but flavorful and easy pancakes.

  • rionafaith on September 19, 2016

    p. 3 -- The title is accurate. Easy to halve the ingredients to feed only two people, and the batter is a perfect consistency (I often find them too thick for my taste and end up thinning a bit with more milk -- not so with this one). Good basic recipe.

• Zephyr pancakes

  • milgwimper on September 18, 2014

    These were great, but the first time I made these I did not have cream and used evaporated milk. Still came out well, but the cream makes it richer.

• Parisian street vendor crêpes

  • milgwimper on July 02, 2014

    Made this which way to sunday. We got tired of paying for crepes downtown and tried this recipe with our favorite fillings and for 3 days had crepes breakfast, lunch and dinner.

• Banana split coffee cake

  • abrownb1 on June 27, 2021

    Delicious cake but it does use a lot of dishes! My layers didn't really swirl together despite using the technique they outlined. Next time I might try dropping spoonfuls of each to get more of a swirled effect. This cake also rose higher than the top of the bundt pan but not sure if it was because I was using a brand new container of baking powder for the recipe. I skipped the glaze and didn't really miss it. Ymmm

• Basic fruit cobbler (fruit atop a cake crust)

  • abrownb1 on July 05, 2023

    Nice recipe. I used 3 cups of sliced peaches but would use 4 cups next time for a higher fruit ratio. Missed the headnote about reducing the sugar for sweet fruit and could have done with it being 50% less for my peaches. I had some homemade peach bourbon so I used that for the syrup and it was perfect.

• Shortbread

  • adrienneyoung on August 09, 2020

    Very worthy. A keeper!

• Carrot-ginger-raisin [muffins]

  • gstaples on October 16, 2011

    These were quite good and light, didn't add raisins this time. But will make again, might try with some pineapple or coconut or both. Did add some cinnamon and nutmeg. Also grated about 2 teaspoons of fresh ginger and not the ginger that it called for.

• Raisin pecan rye bread

  • michalow on October 30, 2019

    I make this bread regularly and it is delicious. I've made it with a combination of rye and pumpernickel flours, as the recipe calls for, and also subbing rye for the pumpernickel, and notice very little difference. I bake on a cookie sheet as directed, but find the loaf is more manageable (for slicing and eating) if I make the dough into an oblong shape instead of just a "flattened ball."

• Crusty Italian bread

  • michalow on December 31, 2018

    This is a beautiful loaf, and is nice toasted with jam.

• Christmas scones

  • michalow on January 03, 2019

    These are nice. Not overly sweet or super rich. Chopped fresh cranberries worked well here. I added some crystallized ginger, and I think next time I will use this as a replacement for the pecans, because I didn't care for the texture of the nuts in the scone.

• Walnut-strawberry quick bread

  • michalow on December 14, 2019

    Love this with poppyseeds instead of walnuts. Reduce sugar to 3/4 cup and use part wheat flour. Needs an extra ten minutes in my oven.

  • Rachaelsb on January 02, 2014

    Yum but sweet --will definitely try with rhubarb.

• Basic vegetable quiche

  • michalow on September 05, 2021

    This came out great. I used about 2/3 buttermilk and 1/3 cream, and it was a good balance of tanginess and richness. I also added about a tsp of brown mustard to the custard. I put about 2/3 cup of grated gruyere on top of the crust, then a layer of caramelized onions on top of that, before adding the custard. I included sautéed kale and a diced yellow pepper in the custard. Cooking time was just right -- custard was nicely set and the crust fully cooked underneath and lightly browned on edges.

  • rionafaith on June 07, 2020

    p. 469 -- Made w/ pie crust from same book, 8oz cheddar cheese (1/3 to line crust, 1/3 mixed with with filling, 1/3 sprinkled on top), regular milk, 2c sauteed kale and radish greens, a big handful of chopped fresh dill, and a little bit of chopped leftover bacon. Tweaks for next time: possibly blind-bake crust as it was a touch soggy and use less milk to make a firmer custard. OR it may have just needed a few extra minutes in the oven -- the browned melted cheese on top makes it hard to tell doneness. Still, good base recipe open to infinite variations.

• Cranberry-orange [scones]

  • trudys_person on June 07, 2022

    Easy to make and to halve for 8 wedges. Strange baking method, but it works ...

• Pumpkin praline waffles

  • BookishMa on April 14, 2013

    Give them enough time to cook--they look dark but that's the ingredients. Served with apple butter, strawberries, and local maple syrup. Divine.

  • twoyolks on December 10, 2016

    These are very heavy on the pumpkin pie spice but not as heavy on the pumpkin flavor. The spice dominates the other flavors. They also don't really become crispy which is disappointing.

• Pumpkin chocolate chip bread

  • twoyolks on November 17, 2015

    This pumpkin bread focuses on the pumpkin and not the pumpkin spice. The chocolate chips provided a nice contrast to the pumpkin. I omitted the walnuts but they would complement the bread nicely.

  • laurenlangston on September 17, 2017

    Used (sunflower) oil instead of shortening, toasted pumpkin seeds instead of walnuts/pecans. Measured all by weight. Very good standard pumpkin quickbread recipe, super moist. I really like the flavor of the sunflower oil but it could be off-putting to some. Raisins would also be good in here.

  • Lepa on November 19, 2019

    This is a bit sweet for me. And now I have two loaves of it. Oh, well. I hope the kids like it! Also, it took an additional ten minutes to fully bake.

  • Stringsandpots on January 21, 2022

    This was perfect. Was skeptical about the shortening but it was incredibly tender and moist. I liked how it was written for two loaves, always make two at a time. Used pumpkin pie spice, cardamom, and black pepper.

  • Rebeccajwj on April 15, 2022

    First of all, if you have a petite loaf pan you should probably use liners. Pumpkin bread tends to stick and rip. The bread came out beautiful despite sticking. I used shortening and the recipe as written. we would definitely make this again. The chocolate chips did add something. The walnuts did as well.

• Herbed beer bread

  • twoyolks on August 08, 2015

    This was edible but just wasn't all that good.

  • oddkitchen on January 15, 2013

    As quickbreads go, this one tastes just fine. The recipe (like all KAF recipes, it seems) calls for an unnecessary amount of sugar, which the bread would just be better off without.

• Soft rolls

  • twoyolks on May 16, 2016

    Really good, basic sandwich rolls. They were substantial enough to be used for a sandwich but not so substantial as to be tough to eat. They had enough flavor to compliment the fillings but not overpower them. I made 8 rolls out of the recipe (approximately 4 oz. each). I also spread melted butter on the rolls after baking them. They did take closer to 25 min to bake than the 15 min specified in the recipe.

• Vermont oatmeal maple-honey bread

  • twoyolks on November 09, 2015

    The bread has good maple and oatmeal flavor. It was a bit sweeter than I'd like. The crumb makes it a bit difficult to slice.

  • Shewi128 on August 15, 2022

    How did I forget this bread? I used to make it a lot, but I forgot about this recipe. Anyways, I made it again for the first time in likely a decade, and it's still as good as I remember. It's a very filling bread with warmth. The whole family loved it.

• Peach or apricot clafouti

  • twoyolks on July 11, 2016

    This was really good. There's just enough sugar to compliment the peaches and minimize any tartness. It reminded me of a peach pie without the crust. I tried to make this in a spring form pan which partially failed as the filling was too liquidy and leaked out. Vanilla extract is listed as a substitution for almond extract.

• Sourdough waffles

  • twoyolks on January 16, 2017

    These were very sour without any more complex flavors there. The combination of sourdough and buttermilk (also sour) is an odd choice.

  • thetinkhams on September 28, 2019

    First edition errata: Weights of buttermilk & sourdough starter in sponge ingredients are switched (buttermilk should be 16 and starter should be 8) Source: errata sheet received from King Arthur with my cookbook.

• Gingerbread pancakes

  • twoyolks on December 17, 2016

    These were really good, gingerbread pancakes. The gingerbread flavor is strong enough to taste but doesn't overwhelm the rest of the flavors. These do burn very easily so cook quickly over a lower temperature.

  • Lepa on December 06, 2020

    Oh, these were so good! They were a perfect Sunday breakfast on a cozy weekend sitting by the Christmas tree. We especially loved how the crystallized ginger softened and flavored the pancakes. Highly recommend!

• Cinnamon puffs

  • twoyolks on June 28, 2016

    The topping for the muffin is quite good. However, the muffins themselves don't have much flavor and none of it is cinnamon. The large amount of nutmeg in the muffins adds an unpleasant acrid note.

  • thetinkhams on September 28, 2019

    First edition errata: the first step to whisk the dry ingredients should say 1 cup of sugar, not ½. Source: errata sheet received from King Arthur with my cookbook.

• Milk chocolate cream pie

  • twoyolks on March 16, 2017

    The custard had a really good, well-balanced chocolate flavor. However, it never fully set so it was more like pudding in a pie shell than an actual cream pie.

  • Globegal on March 15, 2016

    Made this in celebration of Pie Day - 3.1416. I'm not used to making custard. This was simple and creamy. Put extra in cups. Prefer it as a pudding. I did change it,though. Used about 1/8 tsp Fiori di Sicilia in a teaspoon and then added the vanilla. Whipped my own cream for 1 slice. Didn't seem to add anything but canned whipping cream may be worth a try. Didn't get all the chocolate melted but liked the few tiny slivers of chocolate.

• Soft molasses cookies

  • oddkitchen on January 15, 2013

    Highly recommended -- just like the ones "mom" used to make. This can also be successfully veganized.

• Challah

  • emiliang on January 25, 2015

    Tried my hand at making a challah loaf for the first time. It came out VERY GOOD. Used melted butter instead of the oil. Baking time was about 35 minutes on a cast iron sheet.

• Classic cheesecake

  • emiliang on July 07, 2013

    Yep, this is the best. Made it four or five times -- always comes out great. Especially with Fertig's spoonable strawberry preserves.

• Quiche bites

  • emiliang on December 26, 2012

    These mini quiches look very impressive and can be baked well ahead of serving time. In fact, they taste better when completely cold. Make sure that you roll the dough really thin -- otherwise it doesn't leave much room for the filling. I substituted fresh chives for the sauteed leeks, and smoked whitefish for the trout. Next time I will add a bit of salt to the filling, though. The index on eatyourbooks calls for cream cheese, but that is a mistake. The recipe doesn't call for it.

  • rionafaith on June 30, 2016

    p. 472 -- So I only loosely followed this recipe, which was probably for the best. Did not use trout/salmon and leeks as filling (though that sounds great too!), instead went Lorraine-inpired with ham and bacon. Found the quantities were very off -- the double batch of dough only made ~30 mini quiches in a regular size muffin pan. I only made half the egg custard and it was more than enough. Also only needed about 1/4 lb of cheese, rather than the full pound the recipe calls for (whaaaaat?). These stuck to the pans A LOT even though I buttered them well. Still, a decent base recipe to play with.

• Pineapple upside-down cake

  • clkandel on May 28, 2023

    Yum - enough said. Made this with peaches and because they were sweetened, canned, I cut back a little on the sugar in the cake.

• Fudge waffles with ice cream and chocolate sauce

  • EmilyR on March 03, 2019

    Very good.

• Chocolate-pecan pie

  • Nancith on August 16, 2014

    This pie is very easy to put together, and tastes somewhat like a standard pecan pie with chocolate chips added. It was not a very attractive pie before being cut into as the top became mottled and brown, looking over-baked even though it wasn't.

• Lemon-glazed pound cake

  • autonomatic on November 23, 2013

    Very lemony and rich. Batter is somewhat stiff and difficult to work with.

• Spiced peach muffins

  • autonomatic on August 30, 2013

    The texture is a bit weird right out of the oven (probably from juice from the peaches), but they're pretty good after sitting overnight.

• Morning glory muffins

  • Rachaelsb on January 24, 2020

    These were good but not as richly flavored as I expect from this muffin.

• Popovers

  • Rachaelsb on October 21, 2019

    Soooo easy and good.

  • SpatulaCity on September 04, 2023

    Good recipe with good results

  • hbakke on January 30, 2021

    Wow, these were great! They puffed up so high in my popover pan that they nearly touched the upper rack in the oven. I followed the recipe nearly exactly (accidentally bought medium sized eggs, so used 4 in place of 3 large eggs) and added the optional 1 tsp mixed herbs. I used some herbes de Provence. Texture and flavor were perfect and the recipe was easy to make. I'll be making these again.

• Chewy chocolate chip cookies

  • Rachaelsb on January 26, 2020

    Unexpectedly good, Chewy and good toll house flavor.

• Chewy oatmeal raisin cookies

  • Rachaelsb on January 18, 2022

    Delicious! Delicious! Perfect chewy and light spicy!

• Oatmeal pancake mix

  • mharriman on February 01, 2020

    This recipe was easy to use as promised. I used plain 2 percent yogurt since I didn’t have buttermilk on hand. I’m sure buttermilk would have given the cakes the full depth of flavor intended. I added a half cup of fresh blueberries. These were good but I like my Arrowhead buttermilk mix better. I was out of that; these were the next best thing on a Saturday morning when pancakes were calling my name. Update: made pancakes from the now refrigerated and stored mix using buttermilk. Really, really nice! Lighter and fluffier than using yogurt and better tasting.

  • Shewi128 on June 13, 2022

    This is a classic standby recipe for easy mornings. We've made this mix many times and enjoy making it with buttermilk.

• Banana coconut [muffins]

  • mharriman on January 01, 2020

    Cake-like with enough sugar to be satisfying without being overly sweet. I used unsweetened coconut since that’s all I had. I’m sure the texture was different from sweetened (a bit grittier), but not enough for me to use sweetened version. I’d like to add blueberries next time.

  • Lepa on November 01, 2020

    I was annoyed when I saw this recipe required me to cream butter but the end result was worth it! I added 2 tsp of cinnamon and some nutmeg to spice it up a bit. My whole family liked the results.

• Oatmeal muffins

  • mharriman on January 13, 2021

    Yum! This recipe lives up to its promise of producing tender, not too sweet muffins. They’re satisfying without being heavy. I included the raisins In the batter, which made for nearly full muffin tins. Even filled nearly to the brim, my muffins rose nicely, didn’t puff over, and were finished baking at 18 minutes. Will definitely repeat. Taste best right out of oven.

• Raisin bran muffins

  • mharriman on January 06, 2021

    The molasses in these add an interesting sweetness. I like that the recipe includes old-fashioned oatmeal. I didn’t have wheat bran but my wheat bran cereal worked just fine as a substitute. Used all wheat flour (recommended in recipe note) rather than a mix of half white and half wheat. Batter rose nicely in pan tins and muffins were fully baked at 14 minutes.

  • Lunacran on July 12, 2022

    Not my favorite A little too sweet,too much molasses flavor I used half and half whole wheat flour and white whole wheat flour

• Date-nut bread

  • mharriman on March 29, 2020

    Very good. I especially liked the technique of pureeing part of the date/ butter/ molasses/ brown sugar mixture to make the batter slightly gooey. My baked bread could have done with 5 or more less baking (I baked for 60 minutes) because the top crust edges were very very dark, but the remainder was lovely and, when sliced, beautiful. With the suggested cream cheese, this was dessert- like. I served mine with a carrot and ginger soup but think this will make a wonderful breakfast treat, too.

• Bacon cheddar cornbread

  • mharriman on January 27, 2021

    We liked this take on corn bread. It was moist and flavorful. Easy to put together. I’d make it again. Went well with French lentil soup.

  • rionafaith on July 24, 2016

    This was pretty good but didn't blow me away. It wasn't as bacon-y as I'd hoped for, despite the fact that I put in more like 8 or 9 slices instead of the smaller amount called for. Maybe it would be better with bacon fat instead of the oil? We have lots left over, so I'm hoping it will freeze okay.

• Food processor piecrust

  • mharriman on April 13, 2020

    This was easier and turned out better than I anticipated. For an inexperienced piecrust baker like me, I liked the step-by-step instructions and illustrations. In my hands the dough needed more ice water than instructed to form a ball that wasn’t a dry crumble. After chilling, I still needed to add a little water to get the dough to smooth out as I rolled it. The baked result was nice and flaky and definitely better than store bought. I need to purchase a large marble stone or some sort of template to roll out my dough. Used the piecrust to fill a quiche.

• Spinach quiche

  • mharriman on May 07, 2020

    The sour cream topping creates a quiche that looks like a layered dessert and almost tastes as good as one, too! Two of us thought this quiche was delicious. I used fresh baby spinach instead of frozen, and that worked well. I wilted it in batches using a steamer insert. Directions call for 50-55 minutes in the oven. Mine was baked and turning dark brown at the edges at 50 minutes. Served with a lettuce and tomato salad and a French baguette.

• Beautiful burger buns

  • mamacrumbcake on April 09, 2015

    These are the fastest, disappearing rolls. My kids will eat them plain, they are that good. Don't leave out the onion powder!!!

• Classic buttermilk waffles

  • Lepa on November 25, 2019

    I made these on a whim today and they were very good. I used all-purpose flour because that's what I had on hand. I also used the pecan meal, which gave these a wonderful sweet, nutty flavor. The texture was perfect. This is so good it may become our house waffle recipe (when we don't plan ahead and make yeasted waffles).

  • Foodiewife on April 24, 2016

    I have made many waffle recipes, but this one has moved up, pretty high on our list of faves. I used all-purpose flour instead of pastry flour. If I'd had pecan meal, I would've added it. The waffles were super tender. I served our with a homemade blueberry sauce. Once again, KAF has a winning recipe.

• Crunchy cornmeal waffles

  • Foodiewife on April 30, 2016

    I'm researching investing in a good waffle maker, because I like mine crispy on the outside and tender in the middle. My waffle maker doesn't allow me to adjust the temperatures. I thought I'd try this recipe out, hoping for a crispy exterior. These are easy to make, and I did add vanilla to the batter. I found the mixture to be a little thick, so I added a splash of whole milk. These were good, but the consensus is that these taste like corn muffins. Not a bad thing, but maybe a raspberry coulis sauce might've made these a bigger hit. I think they'd be fun to try as the savory version offered in this recipe.

• Blueberry buckle

  • FromScratch on August 22, 2023

    Batter is very thick, blueberries did not have a chance to sink to the bottom. Yay!

• Ginger syrup

  • Piebaker on June 13, 2016

    Very good syrup. Took a bit longer to cook than stated.

• Basic piecrust

  • rionafaith on June 07, 2020

    p. 408 -- Used the "Medium-Flake Method" to make crust for Basic Vegetable Quiche from same book, halving ingredients to make only a single crust and using only butter as the fat. Good basic crust, easy to roll and did not shrink in pan.

• Cheese bread

  • rionafaith on June 30, 2016

    p. 211 -- Made w/ spicy habanero cheddar...Yum! But will have to bake longer next time... still doughy after 40 mins.

• Classic blueberry muffins

  • rionafaith on July 09, 2016

    These are very light, moist, and cake-like. Mashing some of the blueberries before adding them to the batter is a unique touch -- though I used frozen berries that were only partially thawed so it was a little hard to mash them up. I used buttermilk instead of regular milk cause that was all I had in the fridge, but it was fine. I did fill the muffin liners to the very top as the recipe states, but they did run together a little bit as they rose so I might be a little more careful with that next time. Still, it was no big deal. I also sprinkled the optional cinnamon sugar on top of the muffins before I baked them and added a little bit more once I pulled them out of the oven.

• Faux-reos

  • swordfern on January 26, 2017

    I made each cookie ball 7 grams, flattened to a bit less than 1/8th inch, and baked for exactly 18 minutes. I stuffed my fauxreos fairly generously and had a small amount of filling left over. Don't use cocoa when flattening the cookies - it will make it difficult to cleanly fill the cookies once they are baked!

• Peach nutmeg scones

  • Seanruss on June 16, 2020

    Awesome. Love the nutmeg flavor!

• Rye crisps

  • fultre on April 22, 2022

    We enjoyed these. However, I ended up with enough for 2 baking sheets instead of 1. And I had trouble with the edges burning, especially on the sheet that was on the bottom rack; I assume because I rolled them unevenly with the edges too thin(?). Used poppy seeds in place of caraway. Would try again, but not cook 2 sheets at once.

• Easy chocolate buttercream

  • KristenS on June 08, 2020

    I have an incredible sweet tooth and love to bake. This was VERY sweet and was too much on my chocolate cake with marshmallow filling.

• Herbed cream cheese biscuits

  • Kinhawaii on June 15, 2020

    Good- cream cheese keeps it moist, lots of flavor, but rather small. Would make again but cut into 9-12 vs 16.

• The best apple pie

  • PQPantry on February 28, 2019

    Homemade pie crust a must!

• Caramel custard pie

  • hbakke on September 29, 2019

    Fantastically easy pie. This is essentially a butterscotch custard pie. I used the pie crust recipe from Bravetart since it seems to be the only pastry I can manage to roll out without losing my mind. Delicious!

• Three-layer chocolate mousse cake

  • thetinkhams on September 28, 2019

    This is so good! I’ve made it several times and it always gets rave reviews. Making the cake requires several hour+ rests in the fridge to set everything up, and multiple hours after it’s all assembled before serving, but it’s worth it!

• Soft wrap bread

  • Shewi128 on May 19, 2022

    This was a very soft, easy to work with dough. I was worried that it wasn't enough water for the bread, but I had to work it with my hands a lot before kneading with a mixer to get it all incorporated. The wrap got all nice and puffy in the pan like a pita bread. It will be a great base for any topping or filling.

• White bread 101

  • Shewi128 on June 09, 2022

    This is a favorite family favorite bread recipe. It works perfectly every time. FYI, I use potato flakes, not potato flour.

  • CaffeineRage on September 19, 2022

    Nice and soft, very good for rolls. I used the potato flake version of the recipe.

• Linzer cookies

  • sbrooksh on December 15, 2022

    These turned out very well after some intervention—I made the almond flour substitute but I attempted to do it by weight (the other ingredients are listed in ounces) vs by volume, which is how the substitution suggestion was written. I believe this was a mistake, as my dough was far too soft to roll out. I ended yup manually working probably 3/4 cups worth of flour into the dough, even after chilling for hours. This worked best rolled out and then chilled, vs rolling after chilling. That said, i would still make this again.
