Sunshine in jars! Every year, I fall in love with Meyer Lemons all over again. They are beautifully sweet yet tart, a little bitter, and oh so juicy. Because they are mostly only available in these parts in winter, I try to make them last as long as possible with jams and jellies, curds and sugars. So here we have two of those things: jam and curd. Very delicious for breakfast or tea, add a bit of curd to yogurt or even a vinaigrette. Delicious.
Crumble bars are definitely my “go to” dessert (sort of like variations on the blueberry muffin are my go to breakfast item). I think that there must be at least a dozen crumble bar recipes on this site at this point. They are just so eary and the variations are endless. Sometimes I add nuts. Sometimes I add oatmeal. There is always fruit. They are always yummy.
My kitchen smells like apple pie and there isn’t an apple pie anywhere to be found. While apple pie would actually be nice right about now, I have just finished making these here cookies — which small just like apple pie. Cinnamon White Chocolate Appledoodles… sort of a cross between white chocolate chip cookies, snickerdoodles and apple pie. They use Jammie Bits from King Arthur. Yum yum yum!
