Ever since I discovered afternoon tea my favourite part of the whole ordeal was always the scones. I set out to create my ideal scone recipe, meaning soft and fluffy, buttery, and delicious of course. I typically love scones with clotted cream and jam, but the clotted cream is a bit difficult to find in […]
When I’m craving something sweet, especially during the summer months, I typically try to reach for something a little healthier than usual. I recently discovered that I may have a slight intolerance to gluten, so I was thinking of all the wonderful uses for naturally gluten-free oats. I usually purchase a small little bag of […]
Coming from an Italian household, we always had Nutella on hand. Whenever a chocolate craving struck, I would grab a spoon and tuck into a jar of delicious chocolate-hazelnut heaven. Since then, I have upgraded on my Nutella snack with a recipe so easy and simple, you can make it in minutes! I am so […]
I absolutely love the nutty flavour and aroma you get from browning your butter. Browned Butter (or Beurre Noisette) imparts an extra special element to any recipe. The toasty flavour develops by essentially cooking down the butter on a medium/low heat which removes access water, and then slowly turns the milk solids brown. This completely […]
Ok, this post has been a LONG time coming. One of the first things I learned to make from scratch at home were chocolate chip cookies. I was so proud of myself, and couldn’t believe homemade cookies were so easy to make. This recipe has come quite a way since then, as I’ve had YEARS […]
These cookies are what chocolate lovers dream of… They are fudgy, rich, have a slight coffee flavour, and are made with almond flour giving them a chewy consistency, as well as making them naturally gluten-free! They are studded with a little bit of white chocolate for a balanced flavour, but you can omit this, or […]
Since first making my Sourdough Starter, I have been actively using the discard to make the most delicious and easy Sourdough Discard Crackers! These crackers are seriously the best thing you can make with your discard (aside from actual Sourdough bread) and they come together in minutes. Rather than taking your discard and well… discarding […]
This dessert reminds me of something my mother would make us when we were young. Her meringue style dessert had the addition of ground almonds I believe. It was one of my favourite desserts she ever made, the crunch of that meringue paired with the creamy cold whipped cream, and burst of sweet berries; it […]
With a long quarantine upon us (at least in Canada), and much more time on our hands to cook and bake, I have been experimenting in the kitchen lately. I think we can all agree that leaving our house to grocery shop has actually become quite scary. With that being said, I wanted to bake […]
One of the easiest and most delicious desserts you can make any time of the year, but especially now with Valentine’s Day right around the corner is Panna Cotta. I have always loved this dessert, and once I made it, I could not believe how simple it was. The best part is, it is a no bake […]
