The other day I was helping to host a party and I made some bruschetta and had tonnes of extra bread. We had to eat it now or eat it later. Well we saved it for later. We toasted and stored them in a plastic bag in the fridge. I used my food processor and…

Milk Bread Dinner Rolls
Dinner rolls always add something to the table. I love when they are fresh from the oven. Soft, fluffy and warm! Here is my take on a dinner roll. Like with baking any breads, this does take some time since you do need to let the bread rise twice. Begin the recipe by beating 6…
Sourdough Milk Buns
My two favorite breads all in one. I love sourdough and I love milk bread. This recipe yields a soft and delicious bun that is great for sandwiches or as a dinner roll or just great as a snack. For this bread you need to start with a cooked roux. You will need 1/4 cup…
Banana Bread
Banana tend to ripen pretty fast in the summer and I don’t like my bananas brown. I often use the brown bananas for smoothies or use them for baking. My favourite recipe would have to be banana bread from the cookbook Company’s Coming. Start the recipe by preheating the oven to 350 degrees. In a…

What the Yucca!
Yucca, tapioca, cassava, the root with many names. As I went through my eczema elimination diet I had to avoid most bread and potato. I looked for alternatives and found the good old yucca root. I have always wondered what that weird root was. It kind of scared me. That’s when I found out that…
Monkey Bread! Not just for monkeys
Have you ever wanted a fun way for people to eat food?? Try monkey bread!! Parties and gatherings won’t be the same with this. People can grab a piece and go. To substitute buttermilk, I used plain yogurt and milk. Mix the yogurt and milk until it becomes a buttermilk consistency. In a sauce pan, put…
Two Takes on Cinnamon Buns
During my trip to Alaska, I found this recipe book. It had lots of different recipes using sour dough. There was cakes, breads and even cinnamon buns. I wanted to see if sourdough cinnamon buns were better than regular cinnamon buns so I decided to try out both recipes. The sour dough cinnamon bun recipe…
