It's the most wonderful time of the year!
Looking for easy (and practical) holiday recipes?
Nothing makes me happier than the arrival of the holiday season and turning on my oven to bake! Sure summer is nice, but so are pies, galettes, bread pudding, and cake. Let's not forget cake.
I love to play and experiment with cooking but I seem to always return to my first love of baking. I can still picture myself at eight-years-old, sitting on the counter next to the sink, as my Mum whipped frosting for cupcakes. Mum taught me how to measure, sift, and whisk ingredients, and how to use the mixer. She laid the foundation for a lifelong obsession, which has since become a part of my career. I hope you love these simple fall baking recipes as much as I do!

Do not – I repeat – DO NOT make these gluten-free double chocolate buckwheat brownies if you like cakey brownies! Made with cocoa, dark chocolate, and buckwheat flour, these are unbelievably rich fudgy brownies.

Spicy Apple Galette With Coffee Glaze
This spicy apple galette with coffee glaze has a chai-spiced crust that’s rustic and fragrant. The apple filling is balanced with acidity, spice, and gentle sweetness. A smooth coffee glaze is literally the icing on top. Apple galettes are an easy and impressive-looking fall dessert I love to serve warm, topped with vanilla ice cream.
Mini Pumpkin Cranberry Muffins (dairy free)
These mini pumpkin cranberry muffins are a result of my most recent visit with Atlantic Superstore in-store registered dietitian Kristen Gaudet. I visited Kristen in the summer to talk about weight management and switching to a more plant-based diet. With cooler weather setting in, I returned and asked Kristen to help me meal plan lunches…
Apple Cider Cornflake Crisp
Baking is a salve to my grief and this apple cider cornflake crisp is a result of that. My grandmother and my mother died, three days apart, three weeks ago. I feel lost. Helpless. Broken. Spending time with my daughter, and baking are the only things that bring relief. Baking, a skill taught to me…
Breakfast Risotto With Bacon And Thyme
Risotto is a weeknight go-to in our house and I make it so often I can practically do it with my eyes closed! Here I’ve made a batch of risotto, then cracked four eggs on top, and finished them off in the oven. You can make the risotto the night before if you want to save time.
Blueberry White Chocolate Scones
These Blueberry White Chocolate Scones were an unexpected treat in our house! My three-year old daughter and I were picking wild blueberries in Cape Breton last week while visiting family. When we got home I knew I wanted to bake with the berries we brought home. I had a full bag of white chocolate chips…
