Peach Clafouti
I made this on a whim. Not knowing what I was throwing together was probably a bit of a hindrance.

I usedContinue reading “Peach Clafouti”

King Arthur Flour’s All-Purpose Baker’s Companion has a fantastic recipe. The book describes it as “unusually airy and lofty” and ethereal.Continue reading “Ricotta Soufflé Pancakes”
Making a New Kind of Pancakes
Recently, I decided to purchase the latest edition of the King Arthur (KA) Flour Baking Company’s The All-Purpose Baking Companion. Generally speaking, I love to just read cookbooks.
