Everyday Fare With Extraordinary Flair
With whole wheat flour, honey, and buttermilk, this Irish Brown Soda Bread Recipe is flavorful and perfect for slicing and serving along with your favorite soup or Guinness Beef Stew.
One of the things I love most about fresh baked bread is the way it makes the house smell like a home. And this Irish Brown Soda Bread Recipe whips up in under an hour including bake time.
This bread is what your stew was missing!…
This Paleo Cranberry Bread Recipe yields a moist, flavorful loaf with the perfect amount of sweetness to balance fresh cranberries, plus toasted pecans for a nutty crunch! Cranberry is one of my favorite winter fruits. Yes, it’s tart, and yes, you can’t just sit down and enjoy a bowlful of cranberries the way you would cherries or blueberries. (Or maybe you could, but I’ve never heard of anyone doing that!)...
Banana-Sour Cream Coffee Cake with Brown Sugar-Pecan Swirl takes ordinary banana bread to the next level! I’m not really a shopper, at least not in the sense that most ladies are. I steer clear of the mall unless absolutely necessary (darn Apple Store with its only location in the mall…and double darn Cheesecake Factory with its fabulous cheesecake!). Anyway....
Except for the rosemary leaves on top, this bread might look sweet; in addition to the herbs being a clue, the fact that it’s savory is also given away by smelling it. It’s softly scented of onion and savory herbs. Flavor and taste-wise, I’d call it say it’s reminiscent of a savory pound cake…but in a good way. (And of course this is much lighter than a classic pound cake; there is no pound of butter, sugar, or even eggs in here!) The best thing for smearing across the top? Kerrygold Irish butter, of course. (Has anyone else noticed that Kerrygold butter almost eats like […]...
This easy Homemade Cinnamon Bread Recipe is soft with a fluffy crumb, and sweetly aromatic with brown sugar and cinnamon. From start-to-finish, it whips up in less than 1 hour, including bake time! As I type this post, even with the aroma of cinnamon bread swirling around me, my mind is completely somewhere else....
Ramadan, the Islamic holy month of fasting, has just begun; this means that for a whole month Mike and I won’t be eating or drinking from sunrise to sunset. (I will still be posting regularly though — I have quite the backlog to share with you!) The point is to teach you patience, discipline, and empathy for others who aren’t as fortunate. I have to say, it really works…food and drink (especially cold water!) never taste as good the rest of the year as they do during Ramadan....
For quite a while I’ve been hearing about the wonder that is beer bread, but I just recently got around to making it myself. (Ok, so it was actually a couple months ago when I made it and I’m a little behind sharing it with you…but better late than never, right?). :)...
This Easy Pumpkin Cheesecake Bread Recipe yields a cheesecake-topped moist pumpkin bread with the perfect balance between brown sugar sweetness and warm spices. Would you rather eat a donut, muffin, or slice of bread if they were all baked (not fried) and made out of the same batter? Hmm, interesting. Last year I came up with a recipe for Baked Pumpkin Spice Donuts that both Mike and I went crazy for. (And this is nothing short of a miracle since he’s a self-proclaimed pumpkin-hater!) Since then, I’ve wanted to re-work the batter into muffins and/or quick bread....
I love making quick bread or muffins on relaxed weekend mornings. There’s something almost magical about a late summer Saturday morning…waking up to the sound of birds chirping and sunlight streaming in your window…and of course knowing that you have the whole day free to do whatever you want! Those kinds of mornings call for a special start to the day....
