Scones can have a bad reputation, and there are many recipes I've tried over the years that have been disappointing. They are too dry and crumbly, or flat and dense, or just not flavorful enough. They can feel like a sad excuse for a breakfast pastry and make you wish you had ordered a muffin or a croissant. Not these scones! Years ago, I went to a tiny but popular bakery on the Oregon coast and had the best scone of my life. It was a savory scone, studded with bacon and cheese. This scone was ... continue reading...
Cherry Pie Bars
Hello Fourth of July! Who doesn't love a summer BBQ with a classic summer dessert? Cherry pie is about as summery as it gets, with in season cherries and a buttery pie crust. But to make it easier (and even more delicious) we are going to make cherry pie bars.

We are using a little almond extract in the filling because the cherry and ... continue reading...
Hot Honey Chicken Bowls

Cottage Cheese Chocolate Mousse
I know cottage cheese is in everything right now, but I've love it for years so I'm happy to let it have its moment!

But what's really genius about cottage cheese is blending it for a way to get extra protein and creaminess into a recipe. I created my high-protein queso dip this fall that is a new favorite of ours and uses the blended ... continue reading...
Almond Cake with Whipped Mascarpone
I love almond flavoring. Almond poppyseed muffins, almond croissants, you name it and I'm probably a fan of it. I actually add a little almond extract to just about all my baked goods to take them to the next level. A little goes a long way, but in the case of this almond cake we are really maximizing the almond flavor with both almond extract and almond flour. With a whipped mascarpone frosting, this cake is the perfect cake for any occasion especially because it's gluten-free. This recipe uses ... continue reading...
