ricotta dinner rolls
It turns out you can substitute ricotta for sour cream with good results! This recipe for sour cream yeast rolls was the base recipe, and I simply substituted ricotta cheese for the sour cream. It worked out great! ricotta dinner rolls ingredients 2 and 1/2 cups all purpose flour 2 tablespoons granulated sugar 2 and…

guava bundt cake
This is a pretty straightforward recipe. Also, if you don’t like the guava seeds and are lucky enough to find guava shells, which are seedless, use that product instead. I kinda like the seeds, so I left one or two small guavas intact before processing them so that there’d be a small amount of seeds…

chocolate hazelnut nutella muffins
I decided to keep things simple, as a muffin recipe should be. So that’s the rationale for keeping this blog post short too. You know what to do when mixing a muffin recipe. You mix the wet and the dry separately, then combine them. Easy-peasy, right? 🙂 Plus, even when I messed up prior workings…

guava poppy seed donuts
After mentally going through three different baked donut recipes in my head, I finally decided to commit to this one, which is based on an apple cider donut recipe from Chef John of Food Wishes! And, lo and behold, it worked on the first go-round, which is unusual for me! I treated the guava nectar like…

apple muffins

I feel like posting one’s first blog post of the year in late January is sort of like the equivalent of being the last person in your neighborhood to take down your Christmas decorations! Oh well,…

There are a wide variety of other fillings that you can use instead, such as jams, Nutella, Chocolate, or other spices. I just really like the combination of…

bibingka
“Just eat it, otherwise they’ll feel bad.” That’s what a nun told me when I was offered some bibingka. I was about 8 years old. And that phrase stuck with me all these years whenever I see or think of bibingka. Even though I no longer have an aversion to it. I was an altar…

cardamom coffee cookies
Greetings! Here we are with only a few weeks left of 2021. This is usually a period of time when I sort of draw a blank when it comes to food blogging. I think it stems from not wanting to feel the pressure to have to post something festive or seasonal. The one exception though…

chocolate yogurt cake
I may have finally cracked the code! I may have gotten the right balance and proportion of ingredients for chocolate cake in a loaf pan! Finally! I think not adding too much cocoa is key, as well as not adding too much liquid. Too much cocoa may be drying, and too much liquid may end…
Got any book recommendations?
