Everyday Fare With Extraordinary Flair
Nana’s Pineapple Delight is a vintage recipe from my grandmother; sweet, fruity pineapple bars with a creamy vanilla frosting and flaky butter crust. It’s a staple summer dessert that makes enough to feed a crowd!
As a kid summertime functions had different desserts on my mom’s and dad’s sides of the family.
…With a flaky, buttery crust and sweet spiced apple filling, these Apple Hand Pies are the perfect portable fall dessert recipe....
This Peach Hand Pie Recipe features a golden, flaky, all-butter crust with a sweet spiced peach filling. It’s everything you love about pie, but in a perfectly portioned portable treat! I don’t make pie very often. It’s not that pie is hard to make, it just always seems like a daunting task. That is, until I make it and remember once again that it’s not hard to make pie! We’ve all heard the expression “easy as pie”, right?!...
Apple Slab Pie with Nutty Oat Crumble Topping has a sweet spiced apple filling with a hint of vanilla, an all-butter pastry crust, and a nutty oat crumble topping. If you ever find yourself with a pie-loving mob at your door, this recipe will prove itself indispensable....
Low-Carb Strawberry Mousse Tartlets feature a swoon-worthy rich and creamy strawberry cheesecake filling inside golden pastry crust. One of the things that makes most girls’ hearts go pitter-patter is looking at beautiful pastries. Gazing at a window display of edible pastry art is like peering inside the windows at Tiffany and Co....
This post is sponsored in conjunction with #BrunchWeek. I received product samples from sponsor companies to aid in the creation of the #BrunchWeek recipes. All opinions are mine alone. Sweet Apple Hand Pies with Cheddar Shortcrust let the magical flavor pairing of sweet apple and sharp cheddar shine. I was so torn when I was thinking about the third recipe I wanted to share for Brunch Week. Originally, I had high hopes for something egg-centric like quiche, frittata, or even a really special omelet....
This flavorful No Bake Pumpkin Tart Recipe with Chocolate Ganache is vegan and paleo, whips up in just 30 minutes, and makes an elegant addition to your holiday dessert spread. I admit, I’m not much of a pie-eater except for my mom’s crumble-topped apple. Maybe it’s because pie is one of those things that’s usually an all-day affair to make. Or maybe it’s because it’s one of those things that’s so easy to mess up one of the components of. In any event, pie just usually isn’t my thing....
I’m one of those people. You know, the people who get an idea stuck in their head and can’t sit still until it’s not just an idea anymore. I need something tangible to come from it. Like the time I woke up with the idea of snack cake stuck in my head. It didn’t take long before my Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Snack Cake came into fruition. Unlike that cake, these little hand-held treats took a bit more thought. All I knew was that “hand pie” was stuck in my head like glue and the idea wasn’t going anywhere until they were made....
When a girl gets a huge box of endive, after she shares some of the loot with her neighbors and makes endive salad a couple times, what’s she to do with it all? If your mind went to dessert, you are truly in good company....
Qamar al deen (apricot leather) is a common ingredient found in most Middle Eastern kitchens. My mother-in-law’s Syrian kitchen is stocked with stack upon stack of it; her favorite way to use it is to make thick, smoothie-like drinks (especially during Ramadan), but she also loves eating it as is (like candy!) or making it into pudding....
