What's holiday baking without some delicious fruit

What's holiday baking without some delicious fruit desserts? I was excited to make this simple tart using @starrrachgrowers apples, basic pastry dough, and a sprinkling of sugar and butter. These @juici_apple apples give a beautiful hue of red and have the perfect balance of sweet and tart flavor. What's your favorite holiday apple recipe? #EatBakeLove⁠

New Peppermint Cake up on the blog! This three-layer white cake is flavored with peppermint and frosted with a white chocolate peppermint swiss meringue buttercream. Add crushed candy canes for an extra fun holiday cake! Recipe link in bio!⁠
⁠
✨Pastry pro tip: To check for cake doneness, use the bounce-back test. Gently press down on the cake. If an indentation is left in the cake, then it needs more time. If it bounces back, then it's fully baked. You will also notice that the sides of the cake begin to pull away from the pan.⁠

Coffee Cupcakes are definitely for the coffee love

Coffee Cupcakes are definitely for the coffee lover. Made with a delicious coffee-flavored batter that’s baked to perfection and topped with a light and airy coffee buttercream. They’re easy-to-make using staple pantry ingredients with the exception of espresso powder that is easily found at your local supermarket. Recipe link in bio.⁠
⁠
✨Pastry pro tip: Use a cookie scoop to easily fill your cupcake liners. Only fill 2/3 full to prevent the cupcakes from spilling or sinking.⁠

Almond cream is such a versatile recipe that's per

Almond cream is such a versatile recipe that's perfect for holiday baking. It can be used for filling pastries like croissants, topping sliced brioche and baking until golden brown, or filling an unbaked tart shell, adding fruit, and baking until set. Almond cream will become your best friend when creating impressive desserts for your family and friends. Recipe link in bio!⁠
⁠
✨Pastry pro tip: If you'd like to make this cream with another nut flour, substitute half of the almond flour with your choice of nut flour. You will still benefit from using almond flour while also using a stronger flavored nut.⁠

⁠Looking for an easy recipe this holiday season?

⁠Looking for an easy recipe this holiday season? Try this creamy Coconut Cheesecake made with @naturesgreatestfoods organic coconut cream. It's a decadent and delicious dessert made with a coconut graham cracker crust. For extra flavor and texture, top this cheesecake with toasted coconut. Recipe link in bio.⁠
⁠
✨Pastry pro tip: Do not overmix your filling, as overmixing can cause your cheesecake to crack. Only mix until all the ingredients are just combined. Use the paddle attachment to mix your ingredients on medium-low speed to avoid beating too much air into your filling.⁠

The holidays are a time for lots of baking. Add carrot bundt cake to your list. It's filled with a layer of cream cheese and topped with a cream cheese frosting for a delicious spiced cake that's a real crowd-pleaser.⁠
⁠
✨Pastry pro tip: Do not use store-bought shredded carrots, as it will affect your cake's moisture content. They are very dry and lack sweetness compared to shredding your own carrots. ⁠

⁠Gingerbread Cinnamon Rolls are a holiday favori

⁠Gingerbread Cinnamon Rolls are a holiday favorite. They’re made with molasses and filled with a brown sugar spiced filling for a gooey and delicious winter-inspired roll. As if these soft and fluffy rolls aren't enough, they're topped with a brown sugar cream cheese frosting for a real treat.⁠ Recipe link in bio.⁠
⁠
⁠✨Pastry pro tip:⁠ To reheat cinnamon rolls in the microwave, place a microwave-safe cup containing water in the microwave and heat thoroughly. Add the cinnamon rolls next to the water and heat. The steam from the hot water will prevent the rolls from becoming too dry or too soggy.⁠
