Baked Goods

The smell-of-the-kitchen kind of recipes. Loaves, cookies, scones — the things I make when I want the house to feel like home. A lot of these started as something I baked for someone else, a gift, a potluck, a holiday table, before they earned a permanent spot in my rotation. I care about texture here more than almost anywhere else on the site, the right crumb, the right chew, the right crackle on top. Some of these are simple enough for a weeknight craving, and a few are worth the extra step for a special occasion.
