The October 2011 Daring Bakers challenge was an unusual filled holiday bread called povitica; I made two gorgeous loaves filled with apples, walnuts and cinnamon.

Apple a Day
Julie | October 17, 2011
I love using every part of a purchase! In this case, the scraps from canning applesauce became apple jelly, and the cores from making dried apple rings became cider vinegar.
Improv
Julie | February 27, 2011
The February 2011 Daring Bakers challenge was panna cotta and oatmeal florentine cookies. I made a simple presentation with maple-balsamic caramel, an apple pie panna cotta, and a German chocolate panna cotta cake with yogurt.
Enter the Samosa

Our first try making samosas was a rousing success—beef, potato and peas in a crispy shell, served with homemade apple chutney.
Caramel Apple Cheesecake Crostata
Julie | November 27, 2010
The November 2010 Daring Bakers challenge was making pasta frolla for a crostata; I chose to use it to make a caramel apple cheesecake tart for Thanksgiving.
Brioche Swirls
Julie | November 19, 2010
Whole grain brioche dough baked two ways: a simple cinnamon swirl and a slightly more elaborate streusel-topped apple swirl. A nice change of pace from muffins for breakfast!
A Fusion Fricassee
Julie | September 14, 2010
Fricassurry? Curricassee? Whatever you want to call this curried chicken fricassee with tender apples and salt-roasted fingerling potatoes, it makes a delicious autumn meal. Amazing where some collard greens can take you!
Tuna Corks and Apple Tourtes
Julie | September 8, 2010
Tuna corks with shredded carrot salad, and a svelte apple tart for dessert—a French-style dinner perfect for the transition to fall.
Get Out Your Shaking Stick
Julie | August 30, 2010
A beautiful bevy of breakfast muffins, from beet-chocolate chip to nibby raspberry to sourdough apple, with a few egg-free, veganizable offerings thrown in for good measure.
