Baked Apple C***r Donuts…

…that actually taste like apple c***r. So many c***r donuts lack that tangy apple punch. Not these.

Happy Apple Season! 🍎

“Great Bakes celebrates the Midwest and butter in equal measure. An absolutely gorgeous book that knows exactly where its heart is.”
– Nicola Lamb, baker and author of James Beard Award-winning book Sift and the Kitchen Projects newsletter

Nicola is one of my absolute favorite recipe developers and food writers out there. I used a few of her methods in my recipes, like this Whipped Cream & Berries Cake. (And yes, I gave her credit.)

I'm officially a bread nerd and enthusiast.

And I’m here to talk about bread.

I’m officially a Certified Bread Sommelier!

This journey began with a course in German bread baking at Bundesakademie Weinheim in 2024, and meeting .

Last fall, I returned to Weinheim for an intensive, year-long course on all things bread. Not just baking but history, culture, science, marketing, and bread pairing. Most importantly, communicating about bread: describing it like someone would describe a fine w**e and sharing stories about this ancient food.

After a week of exams and a research project, I graduated this week!

The best of all is that I made a dozen new friends, each from different countries and on six continents. I will always treasure these folks and the conversations we had.

Fall is here, and that means Apple Crisp.

There’s a reason that this classic is the first recipe in my cookbook, Great Bakes.
