Boston Cream Pie
This is my rendition of Boston Cream Pie. It was first created for the grand opening of Boston’s Parker House, now known as the Omni Parker House. As you can see it’s not a pie. It’s a vanilla cake filled with pastry cream and topped with chocolate ganache. At the Omni they spread some of the pastry cream on the sides and press almonds onto it. My hubs loves this dessert, so he usually gets it for his birthday or Father’s Day. Enjoy!
Cinnamon Popovers
I was always too intimidated to make popovers. After trying several different methods this is my favorite recipe. These popovers are light and fluffy. All you need is some fruit and coffee for a full breakfast. You can also make savory gruyere popovers with just a little tweak. Check it out!
Butterfly Pea Brioche Bread
It took me three tries to get this right! I used a recipe I found and I’m pretty sure it had a mistake. The good news is I corrected it. Check out this fun brioche bread! It is a medium size loaf. Perfect for a couple of breakfasts and lunch. And, it’s pretty!
Easy Baked Beans
We love these baked beans! They are super easy, but feel a little fancy. This recipe is from The Pioneer Woman, but with a few tweaks. I love her easy & approachable recipes, don’t you? Here you go! Just in time for your summer barbecues.
Glazed Miso Salmon
I was looking for an Asian recipe for making salmon and found this gem. It is originally from My Diary of Us. She has a blog and Instagram page by the same title. I made a couple of tweaks for ease of preparation. I really love this twist on baked salmon.
Summer Pasta w/Roasted Tomato Pesto, Corn, Zucchini & Feta
I made this for a family gathering and everyone went crazy over this dish. It’s great as a side dish or as the main meal. It has a few steps, but it is well worth it. The best part is that I used cherry tomatoes from my garden! This is gonna be a permanent fixture on our table. The original recipe is from Half Baked Harvest and was made with gnocchi. In addition to using pasta, I made a few other tweaks for my taste. The link to the original recipe is on the recipe.
Homemade Graham Crackers
I’ve been wanting to make homemade Graham crackers for awhile. After researching a number of recipes, here is what worked well for me. They were a big hit with the family!
Homemade Hamburger Buns
These buns were an experiment in trial and error. I checked out various quick hamburger bun recipes and found some work better than others. I discovered that the flour you choose really matters in this type of recipe. After three batches, here is the recipe I found produces the best bun.
Lemon Blueberry Coffee Cake
My mom used to have her friends over all the time for a “kaffeeklatsch” and she would serve all kinds of coffee cake. This is one of my favs. It’s moist and bursting with blueberries. Enjoy! (Tap the picture to head to the recipe!)
