Halloween Baking

October 25, 2017

halloween baking

I can hardly believe I’m talking about Halloween! Where has this year gone!?

Ready or not, in a few short days the kiddos (and some adults) will be donning costumes and heading out trick or treating. I don’t plan to do much in the way of Halloween this year. With a busy September and early October, the thought of a quiet couple of weeks before the busyness of the Holiday Season is just what I need. But I couldn’t let Halloween pass without celebrating it in some way. So I’m doing so in my favorite way, with some Halloween Baking. I can tell you, once you start baking, you can’t stop. A friend of mine recently attended a couple of baking classes in south delhi and she’s been telling me how much fun they were. It kinda inspired me to start baking again and since it’s Halloween, I decided to do some Halloween-themed bakes!Any occasion that occurs, I’m always wanting to make something for the family. It’s so enjoyable and can be a hobby at times that takes my mind of things, like work. You don’t have to be the best baker in the world, but as long as it tastes nice, that’s what matters. But with this being said, the more you do make products, you’ll make mistakes and learn for the next time on what to improve on. There are many classes like Delhi Baker’s Club and TV shows that help people become interested in pursing baking as more than a hobby and also start getting people to bake at home. For me, I love baking and the idea of creating products that people enjoy is satisfying, especially when they look as nice as my Halloween cookies (if I do say so myself)!

Maple Bourbon Apple Rose Pie

maple bourbon apple rose pie

We’re days away from Thanksgiving here in Canada, which only means one thing for me – pie!  Year after year, I am in charge of the pie for Thanksgiving dinner, which if you’ve followed along for any amount of time, probably won’t come as a surprise.  A quick search of the word ‘pie’ on the blog brings up many options – this pumpkin pie with a twist and the prettiest peach pie, are probably two of my favorites. And while I love all things pumpkin at this time of year, inspired by my peach pie, I decided to go with a Maple Bourbon Apple Rose Pie for this years Thanksgiving dinner. Try saying that three times fast!

The Prettiest Peach Pie

September 3, 2017

peach pie Mondays that feel like Sundays are meant for baking. And while there’s a glimmer of fall’s crispness in the air, it still feels like summer around here.  So to celebrate Labour Day I decided to make the prettiest peach pie, if I do say so myself!

Due to a late start to the Okanagan growing season this year, there is an abundance of fresh, juicy peaches.  Hot temps and peaches galore, make this pie totally seasonally appropriate!
