  • July 2025 Biscuit of the Month

    I am even more excited than I usually am to share the July Biscuit of the Month with you. It includes a few of my favorite summer flavors in various forms and might be my favorite creation to date. The title was previous held by the super delicious May Biscuit of the Month, so I’d…

  • June 2025 Biscuits of the Month

    The June Biscuit of the Month is a bit of a departure from the biscuits of the month up to this point. I wanted to try out two new (to me) types of biscuit recipes: the 2-ingredient biscuit and gluten-free biscuits. I’ve done a little bit of experimenting and am pretty pleased with the results…

  • May 2025 Biscuit of the Month

    The May Biscuit of the Month is another classic – at least if you were born and raised to adore Bojangles’ and their bo’berry biscuits. Anyway, this biscuit is my take on that work of art with the blueberry-ness of it all turned up a few notches.   1. Inspiration Behind the Biscuit What sparked…

  • April 2025 Biscuit of the Month

    The April Biscuit of the Month is somewhat of a classic with a couple of twists to make it my own. The beloved bacon, egg, and cheese biscuit is a classic combination that has never failed to satisfy my biscuit cravings. This biscuit, although a little to the left of a classic BEC, was no…

  • All-Purpose Pie or Tart Crust

    All-Purpose Pie or Tart Crust

    This is an update on my first all-purpose pie crust recipe, which still works just fine; however, this all-purpose pie or tart crust is made using a different method that I learned from watching Milk Street on Tubi. Anyway, instead of the hassle of trying to determine how much water (somewhere in between 2 and…

  • March 2025 Biscuit of the Month

    This month’s biscuit is more like a scone than a biscuit, but I used the basically the same recipe so it qualifies. It’s cut into pie-like slices and has garnishes on top instead of stuffed in between the top and bottom of a biscuit, but it was a delight to make and eat, just like…

  • Pistachio and Lavender Scones

    Full disclosure: my version of scones are just biscuits that were cut into triangles instead of circles or squares. These pistachio and lavender scones are a satisfying combination of sweet and savory flavors packed into the same buttery, soft, fluffy layers of biscuit. There are pistachios in the scones and crushed to be sprinkled on…

  • Lemon Squares

    Lemon Squares

    In this next installment of dishes/desserts that I’ve always thought were harder to make than they actually are: lemon squares…or lemon bars or whatever you end up calling them. These are traditionally made with a shortbread crust and a lemon-flavored custard filling dusted with powdered filling to finish. And my recipe keeps things very simple…

  • February 2025 Biscuit of the Month

    I’m back with another breakdown for this month’s biscuit. I wanted to dedicate the February Biscuit of the Month to simple flavors that I love 💕 – apple, cinnamon, the spices that make breakfast sausage irresistible. And I came up with this: a glazed apple butter biscuit with ginger apple butter and homemade turkey breakfast…

  • Apple Butter Biscuits

    Apple Butter Biscuits

    I’ve been putting apple butter on my biscuits for years, but I’d never put it IN the biscuit – until a few days ago. These apple butter biscuits have the sweet and sour apple flavor baked right into the biscuit.   Your grocery list Baking and pantry items All-purpose flour Baking powder Kosher salt Granulated…
