Tuesdays with Dorie (Baking Chez Moi): Macaron Biscotti
This week’s Tuesdays with Dorie recipe from Baking Chez Moi was one we chose specifically to pair with the previous offering this month – Parisian macarons. After I baked, I snuck a few mismatched shells off the tray with this recipe in mind. It’s not something I’ve ever heard of before, to be honest – […]
Salted caramel apple crumble
What to do with a glut of apples (neighbour went apple picking with her grandchildren and each child wanted their own bag – what are you going to do?) and you don’t have much time to spend baking? Whip up a crumble, that’s what! But not just any crumble – a Salted Caramel Apple Crumble […]
Cook the Book Fridays: Bean and tortilla soup
This week’s recipe for Cook the Book Fridays comes from Dorie Greenspan’s latest cookbook, Everyday Dorie and it’s a version of a soup I make quite often that does well at using up bits and pieces in the fridge/ pantry.

The crunch is provided by Dorie’s “use-it-for-everything” streusel. Now I’ve […]
Curried coconut carrot and pumpkin soup
A quick little post today to share a winner of a soup I came up with last week… What do you do when you’ve got some leftover pumpkin purée and a load of carrots you forgot to roast? Make soup! It’s definitely soup weather here in Toronto and there’s nothing better on a chilly night […]
Tuesdays with Dorie (Baking Chez Moi): Parisian Macarons
This week’s Tuesdays with Dorie recipe from Baking Chez Moi was one I guess folks have been putting off since it’s our THIRD LAST RECIPE (we started baking through this book in 2014!). Macarons intimidate a lot of people (and, indeed, Dorie’s recipe is LONG at first glance, although none of the steps are particularly […]
