Lemon Pastry Squares (a.k.a Lemon Brownies) - a new take on Lemon Bars! by Salad FoodieThis recipe has been circulating around the Internet as “Lemon Brownies”, but I think it deserves a more descriptive name.

Apfelkuchen (German Apple Cake) with Almond Apple Cake Variation by Salad FoodieThis recipe takes me back over 50 years when I lived in Germany.

Pumpkin Pineapple Walnut Cake by Salad FoodieReminiscent of carrot cake, this recipe lends easily to sweetness modification or whole grain flour substitutions to your tastes. The first time around in making it I was tempted to tweak it using less sugar and oil.

Aunt Birdie’s Easy Sour Cream Coffee Cake (Two Versions) by Salad FoodieThis recipe brings fond memories of a favorite aunt who was a terrific cook. (My cousin and I used to say the only thing we wanted when Aunt Birdie passed away was her recipe box!) The recipe works equally well as a Bundt cake or as a 9" x 13" cake. This is the only sour cream coffee cake recipe I’ve ever seen that starts with a… |

Easy Go Poppy Seed Cake by J. Gino GenovesiSo many forget how good this cake is. It is easy to prepare and makes a great presentation. It is also great to dunk into coffee, wine etc. It is a cake that one can add any type of fruit, nuts or flavorings and it still is good.. However, this one is a very traditional cake. |

Blueberry Buckle by Salad FoodieChock full of blueberries, the tender and not-too-sweet cake batter produces a mid-morning coffee cake or dessert ‘extraordinaire’! A light streusel-like topping bakes to a fine crunchy top and it does indeed buckle or crumple a bit! |

Top of the Line Banana Nut Bread by J. Gino GenovesiThis bread is light and tender yet firm,, and has a mixture of flavors appealing to the taste buds. I began cooking at any early age and mostly used family recipes. However, over the years I have tried many bread recipes and eventually came up with this one. The blend of orange and lemon is satisfying. |

Spice Nut Bundt Cake with Lemon Glaze by Salad FoodieA sassy lemon glaze sets off this spice Bundt cake. It fits the bill for morning coffee or afternoon breaktime, and keeps well several days refrigerated. If you don't have cardamom spice just replace with an equivalent amount of allspice and cloves. |
