Classic Soft Pretzel
Hello hello! It’s me. Stephen. Long time no see, I know I know. I’m not going to lie, it was a busy summer and I feel like I’ve barely cooked in ages. Hopefully now that autumn is fast approaching, I’ll be able to spend more time in the kitchen! So… My mom...
Caramel Apple Bread Pudding
‘Tis apple season. You can literally feel it in the autumn air. There’s a mix of crispness and warmth…which is coincidentally a great combo for fall food. In fact, everything I’ve been cooking lately has included at least one apple. Seasonal fruit is just so darn tasty! I have a few recipes...
White Cheddar Bacon Bread
Bacon and cheese is a delicious combination sent by the gods to enslave every last one of us. When I was little, I ate SO much bacon and cheese that my sweat probably smelled like those ingredients (cue the “ew”s haha). The salty crunch paired with cool, creamy cheese was just too...
Herb Focaccia with Tomatoes
Bread makes me lose all self control…no way around it. It’s always been a vice of mine that can’t be satisfied until I gorge on a freshly baked loaf (and might I add, it’s a vice I indulge as frequently as I can!). What can I say? I just love the crisp...
Grilled Vegetable Crostini
It’s the simple things in life that often taste so great. For example, take a look at this – a grilled vegetable crostini. New Jersey has been unseasonably warm this year (totally got sunburn last weekend!), so I decided to make a summer favorite a few months early. So we broke out...
Rosemary Flatbread with Sea Salt & Olive Oil
Oh flatbread. Why am I so addicted to thee? Why must your delicious crunch tempt me daily? Sigh… Just a few weeks ago I wrote about my newest favorite cracker flatbread from Townhouse (Flatbread Crisps w Sea Salt & Olive Oil), but now, here’s a recipe to whip up these delicious snacks...
Chickpea Panzanella
It’s no secret that I love chickpeas, and it’s definitely no secret that I’m addicted to bread. Because of these twin addictions, I thought it would be a great idea to include both ingredients in a simple panzanella salad. It’s surprisingly light with lots of fresh flavors (basil, oregano, veggies) and the...
Croutons
Homemade croutons always elevate your salads to the next level. Seriously. You’ll be amazed at what crunchy little bread cubes do. You can add any herbs you love, listed below is the combo that I make all the time for my family. The only prep work is cutting bread and tossing the...
Cornbread
Tasty, crumbly, buttery cornbread can go with any meal of the day. I like to add some cheddar cheese into my batter – I feel like it keeps the cornbread moist and not too sweet while also providing that little something-something extra. Serve with a dollop of butter or a drizzle of...
Ugly Biscuits
These biscuits might not be the prettiest baked goods out there, but their super fluffy warm texture makes up for lack of aesthetics! It’s a perfect recipe to make biscuits for sandwiches, gravy, jam, etc. I love them, and when I make them, my dad literally can’t put them down! 2 cups...
Garlic Asiago Flatbread
AHHH! You are CRAVING homemade bread but ran out of yeast…don’t worry, make a flatbread! You see flatbreads in restaurants all the time, but rarely in the household setting…so give your family something new! The veggies become sweet and basically melt into the cheese flavored bread. Don’t have asiago? Try some parmesan...
Quick Savory Cheesy Rolls
Those infamous crescent rolls at the dinner table…they evoke fond memories of meals with your family. Although they aren’t my favorite inclusion at the dinner table, the pre-made crescent rolls make an excellent base for some nifty creations. I like to take each triangle and roll them in seasonings and cheese, add...
