Apple and Peanut Butter Galette
I’ve always loved eating pies and tarts but I seldom make them because making them seemed too tedious to me sometimes – the cutting of butter and shortening into the flour, waiting for the dough to rest, rolling it out and praying that it will not tear / stick, blind-baking it, making the filling, then baking again… all these seemed…
Beancurd Skin Roll with Turkey, Apple and Carrot
Dim sum is a style of Cantonese cuisine, where small, bite-sized portions of food are served, just like tapas. It is usually eaten in the morning and traditionally the server will push out a metal cart, with steamer baskets or small plates of food on it, and patrons will order whatever they want from them. Nowadays it’s…
Sangria
Sangria is a beverage originating from Spain and Portugal. It usually consists of wine, chopped fruit, a sweetener, and a small amount of added brandy. Sangria is named after the Spanish and Portuguese word for “bloodletting” because of its typical dark-red color. (Source: Wikipedia) X and I had our first taste of Sangria during our…
THB #23: Morning Glory Breakfast Cake
I’m quite late to post this bake, lucky the dateline is still not over yet! The bake this time round is chosen by Lena from Frozen Wings, and this is such a healthy bake! This is definitely not a difficult cake to bake – the toughest is probably the grating of carrot and apple! If…

Apple, Maple and Oatmeal Crumble
I baked these crumbles for the Bake Along hosted by Joyce from Kitchen Flavours, Lena from Frozen Wings and Zoe from Bake for Happy Kids. It was originally supposed to be a pear crumble from Epicurious, but I decided to swap out the pears with Granny Smith apples (it was a bit hard to get…
The Home Bakers #4: Apple Hazelnut Cake
This is our 4th bake for The Home Bakers! The chosen cake this time is originally a Pear Pinwheel and Hazelnut Cake by Zoe from Bake for Happy Kids – I know I know… my cake looks nothing like a pinwheel at all and the name of my cake is apple instead of pear… Well,…
Classic Apple Pie (from scratch!)
The exterior is perfectly golden-brown and is rich and buttery. It is so delicate and flaky that it threatens to give way any minute. The interior is sweet, caramel-y and oozing with deliciousness, with a hint of cinnamon that gives the extra kick. The exterior and interior combine to give a concoction that will…
Apple Pie
Yes! This is the second pie that I made – Apple Pie! Same as the blueberry pie that I made, I played a little cheat here by using Betty Crocker’s Pie Crust Mix. Though there is a recipe on apple pie on the box itself, I used a recipe from my newly bought Pies &…
