Hawaiian Butter Mochi

I have been wanting to make this awhile and remembered that last time I was in the US, I had bought Mochiko flour. As I had the main ingredient then i was ready to try making this.

Cheesecake Brownies

I do not remember the last time I baked some brownies and thought if I was going to make some I might as well go all out. These are certainly not the healthiest thing you could eat but they are worth all the calories.

Pumpkin Bread with Chocolate Chips

Fall time means everything pumpkin, I had frozen quite a bit of pumpkin puree so baking a pumpkin bread was the perfect way to use some of it up.

Blueberry Miso Crumble Cake

Stumbled upon this recipe from Bon Appetit and found it intriguing as I really love miso in sweet applications.

Banana Crumb Muffins

I love banana bread but I wanted something different, quite similar but different enough.

Dutch Oven Bread

It seems like everyone is making their own sourdough breads and yes I love making bread from scratch but I am also want something that won’t take too much energy or time. My brother had tried this out and it turned out pretty well, so I decided to give it a shot.

Bagels

One of the things that i dearly miss from the US are bagels, I can’t seem to find them in Germany. And as I have more time than normal due to the pandemic, I decided to try to make my own bagels.
