Hawaiian Bread Pudding w/ Mangoes, Coconut Milk and Macadamias.

Lilikoi Bars.

Since I’m going back to my precious Maui in March (and Molokai this time), I think I’m just going to stay in a tropical state of mind. Any other year I’d be thinking of what I can make with coconut nog, cranberries, pumpkins and… Continue Reading “Lilikoi Bars.”

Salted Vanilla Oatmeal Cookies.

  So, the very minute I saw this post I knew I had to make these. The only bummer was that I didn’t already have some prepared vanilla salt. Who am I?!?! I have homemade vanilla sugar and homemade vanilla extract. And locally made… Continue Reading “Salted Vanilla Oatmeal Cookies.”

Nectarine Elderflower Pie w/ a Hint of White Pepper.

Summer is now technically over. It still feels a lot like summer weather wise, so we still have a good deal of stone fruit hanging around at the farmer’s market. I hadn’t really picked up any nectarines this year, so I gathered a bag… Continue Reading “Nectarine Elderflower Pie w/ a Hint of White Pepper.”

Apple Pickin’ + Apple-Cherry Pie w/ Cardamon & Black Pepper.

Peche.

Peche! My favorite non-english word for peach. Thanks France! Recently I had the pleasure of returning to M&M Peach Ranch where some friends and I picked Bing cherries earlier this summer. Their Ryan Sun peaches ripened up at the end of August so a… Continue Reading “Peche.”
