Pumpkin Ginger Cranberry Braid
Posted by Tracy | Filed under breads & pastries
Well I tried, and even succeeded for several posts to stay away from pumpkin, but I just can’t help myself. Hi, my name is Tracy, and I’m a pumpkin addict. The first step is admitting you have a problem, right? I made this bread a few weeks ago, adapted from this recipe from King Arthur [...]

Apple Strudel

This is my last installment of What To Do With All That Leftover Puff Pastry. Promise.

Classic Napoleons
Posted by Tracy | Filed under breads & pastries
Since I still had puff pastry left over after making the vols-au-vents and turnovers, I decided it was high time for me to try my hand at pastry cream. The first pastry that makes use of pastry cream that popped into my head was the napoleon (or mille-feuille), since a friend told me a while [...]
