My obsession with almond is borderline ridiculous. This Almond Vanilla Cake is a quick and easy way to satisfy my deep, deep love of all things almond flavoured and also my sometimes spontaneous and desperate NEED for cake, which is probably more “often” than “sometimes”, but we’re not here to […]
with capers, garlic, red pepper flakes, parmesan cheese… This Little White Bean and Celery Salad is one of those “do not pass go, just make it” dishes that I know you will love. You know I love me some contrast in my food and this has definitely got it. Soft, […]
with Chunky Avocado Blue Cheese Dressing Buffalo Chicken Thighs. So yum. I don’t know why it took me this long to come up with this one because we are a Buffalo loving household and I always have a jar of Buffalo sauce in the fridge. This is my new go-to […]
With buttery little toffee bits! Because Chocolate Chip Marshmallow Cookies just seemed like the best idea ever don’t you agree? Super chewy cookies with crisp edges, loaded with chocolate chips and studded with gooey, sweet marshmallows. And because why not, I threw in a bunch of toffee bits. Do you […]
Is it still a salad if we put “candied” things in it? And if those candied things are bacon? This Broccoli Crunch Salad can be either a side salad or a full meal, entirely depending on your intention to share. I did not share. I typically eat most of this […]
“These are the best brownies you’ve ever made.” Direct quote about these Mini Egg Brownies. From my daughter, so perhaps a bit biased, but lord knows kids don’t lie about whether or not they like something you make. If yours do I’d like to know your secrets. These brownies are […]
with Quick Popped Tomatoes and Pepperoncini This Orzo Pesto Salad is one of those dishes that works for just about any occasion. Lunch, brunch, dinner. Main dish, side dish, appetizer… ok, maybe not an appetizer. Personally, I’m happiest just making it, stuffing it in the fridge and dipping in for […]
Made entirely in one bowl. Crunchy sugar crust. A little almond if you’re into it. Absolute heaven. The BEST Blueberry White Chocolate Muffins. Here I go again walking that line between breakfast and dessert. Muffins or cupcakes? What’s the diff? Not much if you come to my house, but these […]
Suuuuuuuper crunchy, incredibly juicy and extra delicious baked chicken. When you hear Baked Panko Chicken you might be skeptical. I, for one, am suspicious of anything baked that claims to be extra crispy. But I hope you know by now that you can trust me. I would not lie to […]
Made with homemade (but not in a scary way) cashew milk. This Cashew Chia Pudding with Coconut Cream, Chocolate & Bananas is made with… promise you won’t run away when I say this… homemade cashew milk. Yes friends… you can… make milk. And you can do it without crazy things […]
Welcome to my site! I'm a self-taught, home cook who pretty much lives in the kitchen. Or with my nose in a cookbook. Cooking is my passion, my obsession, my very favourite thing. I make a lot of really good comfort food with creative twists and bolder flavours. My food is slightly elevated but isn't too fussy. I'm not here to teach you how to cook, I'm here to inspire you, to show you something new and really, really good. And to make you hungry. In my home, in The Pypers Kitchen, this is what we eat.
