Maple Pecan Granola
I know what you are thinking – oh fun, homemade granola. Maybe next we can make our own cereal? Hear me out though. Storebought granola never really gets it right for me.

Pear-Stuffed Cardamom Bread
This bread is very loosely inspired by Swedish pulla bread. The cardamom gives warmth and a bit of je ne sais quoi to a rich and soft bread and the pears melt into a delicious filling. Are you sold yet? If not, you should know that this bread is also incredibly easy to make, but…

Rustic Apple Walnut Cake
This cake isn’t fancy. It isn’t the kind of cake that you would serve at a high-class tea or decorate for someone’s birthday. This cake is homey, rustic, and just cries out to be served alongside a steaming cup of tea on a rainy day. Makes: 1 8 inch square cake Ingredients: Directions: Notes:
