I already made several recipes with apples this fall, but to be honest – there is always room for one more ;) Fall is apple season and I think you should do as many recipes that include apples as possible. That’s why I made this delicious Apple Crumble Pie today. Well, last week ;) The combination of the apple and crumble topping is so good. Not making this would have been a crime. Is that something you can say in English? ;)
Happy Cookie Friday! I got some delicious chunky cookies for you today! Packed with chocolate chips and walnuts – I think a good treat for fall when the days are getting darker and colder… well these Chunky Walnut Chocolate Chip Cookies are actually nice all year round. Chocolate and walnuts are available all the time, unlike seasonal fruits and berries ;)
Pumpkins are in season right now – not only to use them for Halloween as scary decoration ;P These big orange fellas are mostly here to feed us and since the season is quite long, you can easily get them in stores until January… and if you freeze them you can enjoy them even longer. Or make this delicious Pumpkin Chocolate Bundt Cake almost all year round…
Halloween is over – so what’s next? A bit too early for Christmas recipes, right? Let’s do something with some of the most popular fruits in autumn: apples! My blogger colleague Andrea from Zimtkeks & Apfeltarte published a book with tons of apple recipes just recently – this Apple Sour Cream Cake is one of her recipes and one of my favorite recipes from the book. So good! :D
All Souls’ Day is not a public holiday here in Germany (well – it is a holiday, but you still have to work). In the south, the day before is a public holiday (All Saints’ Day). Anyway. Not sure how it is in other countries – many started celebrating Halloween on the 31st and that day got muuuuch bigger over the years than All Saints’ Day or All Souls’ Day together ;) In Mexico the 2nd of November is a big celebration even though it is not named All Souls’ Day – they call it “Día de los Muertos” aka. “The day of the dead”. And as you probably noticed already – I am celebrating that day this year with some special Day of the Dead Cookies… a day early though :P
Happy Halloween! I wished you would be frightened looking at my Halloween Haunted Gingerbread House, but I think it is not really frightening or scary ;) It looks kind of cute – all I would need are some little people around it to make it more real looking… well. In case you want to bake this house for Halloween – you might want to think a bit more into the future and plan this one for next year. It takes a while and making this for tomorrow would be quite challenging… ;)
I love my job, but in between I love to bake and try new things in the kitchen. A lot of my friends and colleagues encourage me to bake - for a very simple reason: they get the leftovers - and it seems they like it most of the time ;)
