Canned apple pie filling has a lot to answer for: pale, gummy apples floating in a gluey sauce that tastes mostly of tin and cinnamon flavoring. This apple pie filling is the opposite of that can. Thin, even slices of real apples — half tart, half sweet — simmered on the stove with butter, brown…
The highest compliment a gluten free banana bread can get is silence — the kind where everyone at the table is too busy taking a second slice to say anything at all. That is the loaf this recipe makes. It slices clean, the crumb is soft and moist with chopped walnuts folded through it, and…
Look at the color of this broccoli soup — that bright, fresh, just-picked green — and you already know the best thing about it: this is broccoli soup that actually tastes like broccoli. It blends up thick and velvety, the way it coats the spoon in the photo, with whole tender florets and crispy bacon…
If you think cauliflower soup sounds plain, this bowl is about to change your mind. This cauliflower soup starts in a hot oven, not a pot of boiling water — the florets roast until their edges turn deep golden and caramelized, and that roasted flavor blends into a soup so silky and rich-tasting you will…
Pizza night does not need dough, a rolling pin, or an hour of rising — it needs a loaf of bread.

It is the bowl you order at your favorite little noodle shop — and this…
Imagine the very best bite of a cinnamon roll — the soft, gooey, cinnamon-soaked center — except the whole dish is like that, and somebody else did the rolling. That is exactly what this cinnamon roll casserole delivers. Two cans of refrigerated cinnamon rolls, cut into chunks and soaked in a maple-vanilla custard, bake up…
There is a moment, about ten minutes before this comes out of the oven, when the whole kitchen smells like a little countryside bakery — toasted bread, warm cheese, sweet roasted tomatoes. This egg bake casserole is how I feed a table full of people on a slow morning without standing over a skillet flipping…
There is a reason Tuscan bean soups have been feeding families for centuries, and one look at this bowl tells you why. This tuscan soup is the real rustic deal: creamy white beans, big sweet potato cubes, and tender spinach swimming in a golden, savory broth, with crispy bacon and a snowfall of Parmesan over…
Some desserts make you choose, and this is not one of them. Brookies are what happens when a fudgy brownie and a chocolate chip cookie stop competing and move in together: a golden cookie base, a dark, almost molten brownie layer, and more cookie dough baked right over the top, with chocolate chips melting and…
