Now that apple season is officially here, I’ve been making all kinds of appley things: apple pie, apple pancakes and this delicious apple challah bread. It may not look like your traditional braided challah, but it tastes just like it: eggy, soft and slightly sweet. And the best part? Cinnamony apple chunks nestled in the dough that become tender and creamy when baked….
Cornmeal Crescent Rolls
It’s definitely starting to feel like fall, even though we’re still enjoying shorts and T-shirt temperatures here in the Bay Area. It’s pitch black when I wake up and dark by 7:30 p.m. And fall recipes are everywhere! Though I’m very sad to see summer go – and with it the warm weather and long days – I am excited and eager to cook richer, heartier foods….
Foolproof Popovers
If you’ve never made popovers, you are missing out. They are one of the easiest-to-prepare and most versatile quick breads out there. Make a batch in the morning and you can enjoy them all day long, literally. Split and fill them with soft-scrambled eggs or fresh-cut fruit for breakfast.

These days, I’d much rather go to the mall or read a book than spectate.

Sweet Hawaiian Rolls
I grew up eating King’s Hawaiian dinner rolls. Mostly, I remember finding them in my lunch sack at elementary school, split and stuffed with slices of ham and Swiss or Havarti. I never told my mom, but I often tossed out the meat and greasy cheese and just ate the bread. Apparently, I haven’t changed much, still preferring carbs over protein and dairy….
Brown Sugar Pull-Apart Bread
Accidents are par for the course when you’re working in the kitchen. Pasta boils over, sauces curdle, cake sticks to the pan. Fortunately, if you’ve spent years recreating recipes, you learn to improvise when things don’t go as planned. And in more cases than not, the finished product, while perhaps not picture perfect, is palatable if not delicious….
