Yesterday I spent the whole morning baking and cooking away in the kitchen, which is a terrific sign that I am slowly coming back to myself for real this time! I played music and as I waited for my dough to set in the fridge I was daydreaming about what interesting recipe I should try next. That hasn’t happened in a long while; not even the playing music in the kitchen part. Annoyingly enough it seems to be a slow and gruelling step-by-step process.

The awesome pull-apart bread in Herb & Cheese style
Among the homemade yeasted breads I’ve made thus far, I think the pull-apart bread is quickly making its way to the top of my heart.

While my favourite remains to be Flo Braker’s heavenly Lemon-Scented Pull-Apart Coffee Cake, this version is no less scrumptious.

{Go With the Flo} Blueberry Muffins with Doughnut Topping
Go With the Flo? I know, original right? But no matter how much I look at it, it simply feels right. In the literal sense of the phrase, a lot of people turn to the recipes of none other than Ms. Flo Braker because not only is she an institution in the world of baking, her recipes always end up tasting so good. Case in point: these muffins. At a glance they look so simple, and they don’t look at all much different from the smorgasbord of other Blueberry Muffins out there, but wait until you taste them. These would go right up to your top three favourite muffin recipes…
