trust me. [whipped goat cheese & cranberry sauce crostini w. homemade candied orange zest]

November 11th, 2021 by Caroline Stegner | comments

Not sure what to do with that leftover cranberry sauce? I highly recommend making these sweet and savory crostini. Even if you don’t have leftover cranberry sauce, you can make these as an appetizer then serve any of the leftover cranberry sauce as a side dish. Done and done! These crostini would be the perfect appetizer for Thanksgiving or any upcoming holiday gathering. They’re somewhat a labor of love because of the homemade candied orange zest, but trust me – it’s worth it. As an alternative, you could also buy store-bought candied orange zest and call it a day.

loss for words. [apple cider bread w. cinnamon sugar topping]

I’m at a loss for words trying to describe this apple cider bread. It was INCREDIBLE. My husband and I finished it off in two days between the two of us and I’m honestly considering baking another loaf. The bread is delicious at any time of the day, but I’d recommend eating it for breakfast with a hot cup of coffee or warming it up and slathering with a little butter for dessert.

sweet & savory. [smashed blackberry & whipped goat cheese crostini]

If you like fruit and cheese or if you like a sweet and savory combo, this one’s for you! The first bite was delicious and all, but when I got to the bite with the mint…mind blown! I honestly wouldn’t even consider myself a huge mint fan, but it worked perfectly with all the flavors on this crostini. These would make for a delicious and beautiful appetizer at any dinner party!

hello, summer. [watermelon panzanella salad]

This dish just screams summer, am I right? Juicy watermelon, fresh basil, creamy burrata – all the good stuff. The panzanella is delicious on its own, but would be great as a side dish alongside grilled chicken, steak or fish.

jack of all trades. [turkey avocado panini w. chipotle aioli]

One of our current wedding gift obsessions is the Breville Duo Panini Press. That thing can do it all! We made these ridiculously delicious and easy paninis the other day and can’t wait to make some Cuban sandwiches next time. :-)

this must be heaven. [über moist banana bread]

June 9th, 2014 by Caroline Stegner | comments

I’ve become a tough critic when it comes to banana bread, but this recipe had me dancing on the ceiling. The bread is by far one of the best I’ve ever tasted–I can’t stop thinking and talking about it. Although more time-consuming than most banana bread recipes, it is way worth the effort. I could and would have eaten the entire loaf myself, but I figured it best to share!

back in the kitchen. [moist banana bread]

Not being able to cook for the last couple of weeks has been torture! Now that I’m finally able to eat solid foods (well, soft foods), I decided to bake some banana bread with my over-ripe bananas. This banana bread recipe was delicious, but I have to admit that I prefer this recipe!
