From allrecipes.com, I finally tried their Downeast Pumpkin Bread, and no wonder it got over 7K likes! It is the best pumpkin bread I ever tried. I love the pumpkin flavor and I love the clean cuts it makes. It is not crumbly at all. I know that butter is tasty in breads, but using oil makes them more moist. I usually like raisins or…

Here is my JIFFY CORNBREAD HACK using just ONE BOX and adding a few ingredients to make it really moist and fluffy! It goes from crumbly and blah, to moist and wow! JIFFY cornbread mix has been around for decades, since 1930! It is very popular. By itself I find it a little dry. BUT, there are many, many recipes out there to improve it! I…
Zeppole, the Donuts! Not zeppole, the pastries filled with a sweet cream! These little, spongy, light puffy balls have a sweet dough. They may or may not have ricotta in the recipe. I prefer the RICOTTA ones! I think ricotta makes them softer inside. They are quickly fried in oil, then dusted with confectioner’s sugar. Zeppole populate behind the glass counters in pizza parlors everywhere…

“ Pepperidge Farm Dark Date Nut Bread was one of the few sweet breads I would buy, and they discontinued it many years ago. I have bought other ones, but none compared.

There is just a hint of sweetness and there are lots of raisins and caraway seeds. Americans…
“A moist zucchini bread base with added grated carrots, diced apples, and walnuts topped with a cream cheese and butter frosting. The flavors and textures of the fruit and vegetables in this bread make a combination that is really delectable. I am partial to the lighter colored, mildly spiced zucchini breads, so there is just a touch of cinnamon. I wanted to accent the fruit…

Blueberry Scones made my way have a blueberry overload! A scone really is in between a muffin and a biscuit. I make scones the American way which is a little different than European scones across the pond! Americans like their scones a little sweet, fluffy, and moist, almost like a muffin but not quite. Europeans prefer scones leaning more towards a biscuit and not so…
