This is the time of year that I just want to make apple everything. I want to go apple picking, and then come home and make applesauce, apple butter, rhubarb apple pie, apple muffins, apple crisp… the sky’s the limit! Also, I have to say, the smell of fresh baked apple things and cinnamon at […]
Today I want to teach you guys how to make an easy apple strudel with filo pastry. These little pastries are so, so simple to make and incredibly delicious. Let’s get into it. What is Apple Strudel? Apple strudel is a popular European dessert, usually made with a special dough that gets stretched super thin […]
With the peak of fall just ahead of us, I figured it was time to get some apple things up on on the blog. This homemade apple pie filling is one of the easiest things you’ll ever make; it smells like all the warm coziness of fall and tastes like the season’s greatest joys. What […]
Okay, so this recipe is so simple I almost feel embarrassed to post it… except that if you don’t know how to make it yet, the time has come, and your joy is about to multiply. So, post it, I will! This is an all-season, all-time favourite that everybody needs to know how to make […]
Tea parties at home are the best. I remember having them when I was a little kid; my mom would occasionally want to make something sweet (or just create a special occasion for us), and then she’d spruce up an ordinary day by surprising us with something like this. Being homeschooled has a lot of […]
Perhaps you have asked the question, as I have: Can you freeze apples for baking? Well, the short answer, I am happy to report, is yes! Why freeze apples? When apple season comes rolling in, I often find myself inspired to make all the things. I want to make pies, cakes, muffins, crisps etc… yet, […]
Alright, this is my last apple butter post for the year, I promise. After posting a recipe for Tart Apple Butter, Sweet Apple Butter, Cranberry Apple Butter, and then a couple of pastries also using apple butter (see Cranberry Apple Butter Danishes and Apple Butter Baked Brie), I can imagine that you may have started […]
Hello holiday goodness, we love you. Yes, these pastries are homemade – and yes, I’m about to teach you how to make them! These delicious danishes are made with my homemade Cranberry Apple Butter and the dough from my Butter Croissant Recipe. The apple butter can be made well in advance, and the croissant dough […]
Yes, I have been on a bit of an excessive apple butter kick for a while. It all started a few years ago, when I made Tart Apple Butter for the first time, and it smelled so magical and like every fall dream I could imagine that I haven’t been able to recover since – […]
Rhubarb pie is one of my favourite things, in every form that I’ve had it. I’ve seen it before it with strawberries, sour cream, crumble topping, and all by itself; but, until I made it recently, I’d never seen it combined with apples. To me that seemed a little odd since the sweet, juicy flavour […]
