Triple Berry Crumble
Happy first day of Summer, everyone! I love summer for lots of reasons, but I have to admit that berries might be the first and foremost. They’re the perfect snack, I love them with yogurt and granola and when baked, they become, if possible, even tastier. I’ve used berries in almost every form: in pie, on […]

Apricot Frangipane Tartlets
Mother’s day is this Sunday and I’m making a little brunch for my Mom. I am usually pretty casual when it comes to brunch; shakshuka, avocado toast and scones are some of my favorite weekend mainstays. However, I wanted to make something a little fancier for this Sunday and these tartlets fit the bill. Simple […]

Lemon Glazed Blueberry Poppy Seed Cakes
Hi there! It’s been a busy week, but I’m popping in to share this quick cake recipe. Being that we’re almost at Passover (it’s next Friday night!) I thought I’d save this for after the holidays, but the truth is, it’s just too good to push off. So I hope you’ll forgive me for tempting […]

Blackberry Pie with Rye Walnut Crumble
I have been seduced by the big box of blackberries at the store- seduced by their navy color and their promise of sweetness.

At home, the blackberries taste of disappointment. […]

Blueberry Cheese Danishes
Everyone wants to know why I’m making cheese danishes. They make comments like “Wow, so much butter!” or “These are a little more involved than brownies, aren’t they?” Yes. Yes, they are. And no, I don’t have a reason for these, other than: it’s February. It’s snowy and cold. And there’s butter in the fridge. […]

Key Lime Pie
Now that there’s snow on the ground here (understatement of the year) I’m finally feeling like winter has truly arrived. Besides for wishing I was back in warm and sunny Costa Rica, I’ve been drinking hot cocoa, warming myself in front of the fire and procrastinating, because that’s what winter makes me want to do. […]

Brûléed Lemon Curd Olive Oil Tart
I can’t believe Chanukah is almost over! Tonight’s night number six. Crazy, isn’t it? Only two more days left until my yearly eat-as-much-fried-food-as-you-want pass is up! I’m spending this weekend in Brooklyn with my extended family and bringing this tart along. So many people think that Chanukah is all about doughnuts and latkes (and don’t get […]

Classic Jelly Doughnuts
Happy happy Chanukah! I hope you’re all eating so many latkes. And doughnuts. I’ve already had 4, and it’s mostly thanks to these! I never want to lay eyes on another doughnut but I think it’s worth it. Only time will tell. What makes these doughnuts so special? A lot of things actually. First: they’re […]
