Recipe Sifter

Irish Christmas cake soaked in whiskey with dried fruits, almonds, candied orange peel, and a marzipan coating. A rich, dense celebration cake that starts with an overnight whiskey fruit soak.

This are my version of oatmeal raspberry bar cookies, by using whole wheat flour adds extra fibre, using most olive oil reduces saturated fat without losing great texture and flavor. They are great for grab-go breakfast.

The crispy texture and flavor reminded me of Ritz Cheese crackers but with a richer cheese flavor.

Cake doesn't have to be always packed with calories, fat and sugar. You only need a few simple twists to make a much healthier cake that still tastes delicious.

From Nedra, she sent us this recipe, and she said, this is the most fantastic pie ever. This was back in the 40s. I have it in my cookbook "scraps from the emperors' table" anything left over from napoleons table had to bE good; enjoy aunt almas hershey pie. Thanks to share this wonderful recipe with us.

This super fruity and moist cake is absolutely divine. It's a great coffee or tea cake. I had it for breakfast with my morning coffee for a few days, perfect. Made with mostly whole wheat flour and applesauce, not loaded with sugar, so it's much healthier than your regular coffee cake, that's why it's also a great breakfast to start off your day.

A Greek butter cookie with almonds and powder sugar.

A very old recipe from Venice, Italy, a delicious cheesecake with raisins

Normally, this cake is made in a bundt or tube pan. Today, I chose to make only half the recipe and bake in four ramekins for approximately 17 minutes. While the glaze was still wet, I sprinkled the little cakes with some multicolored nonpareils to make them a little more festive. Feliz Cinco de Mayo!

This coffeecake was absolutely divine on both flavor and texture. It definitely deserves at least 5-star.

Strawberry and rhubarb are a great pair. I remember my Mom making this juicy, sweet and tangy flakey strawberry rhubarb pie; and every year when the strawberry season comes we revisit fond memories. :)

Savory vegetarian pie with caramelized onions, mixed mushrooms, and Gruyere in a rustic oat-flour crust. A lighter quiche-style main dish with an earthy, nutty depth of flavor.

Carrot puree cake bakes smooth, cooked carrot puree into an ultra-moist crumb, warmed with cardamom and cinnamon and brightened with orange. Topped with classic cream cheese frosting for a fresh twist on carrot cake.

Fresh berries, light and creamy ricotta cheese with the golden and crispy phyllo, these mini phyllo tarts are melting in your mouth, and you can't stop reaching them.

Concentric circles of blueberries decorate this no-bake blueberry pie sized tart.

Fresh fall vegetables: broccoli, fennel and leeks. Or you can use cauliflower, cheesy flavor in the delicate crust with a nice tang from the olive tapenade.
