Beery Berry Skillet Cake, super quick and easy! One bowl and ten minutes and it’s ready to bake. You guys, I’m moving again. I know. I KNOW. In case you’re scoring at home, that will be 6 houses I’ve lived in since I started this weird “let’s see if I can cook all the things… Read More
Chocolate Christmas Ale Cake with Dulce de leche Cream Filling Do you Christmas cake or do you Christmas pie? I do both. I love this chocolate pie that’s requested so regularly I am not allowed to attend holiday gatherings without it. But I also want cake because I’m like that. Apparently, I just love chocolate… Read More
I’m the weird one, I know this, let me count the ways. First, there is this thing about how I hate drinking milk (gag) and believe that beer makes a much better pairing for cookies. Second, is the fact that I think skeletons make fun and festive holiday decor. Third is that I do not… Read More
You HAVE to make these: Everything Bagel Beer Butter and Potato Dinner Rolls If you were forced (yes FORCED) to rank all Thansgiving foods by how much you want to binge eat them, where would rolls rank? And why would turkey not even make the top 5? Rolls easily rank #1 for me (beer doesn’t count,… Read More
Overnight Bourbon Stout Pecan Croissant French Toast with Blood Orange Mascarpone Cream I like when we do this. We make what is obviously a dessert (sshhhh!) and serve it for breakfast because if you add syrup and coffee it’s for breakfast. Don’t worry, I’ve been here before I know the road. It also helps to… Read More
Elote Beer and Bacon Corn Chowder It’s pretty obvious from the soup I’ve been making that I miss summer already. My “lizard on a rock” vibes do not mesh well with below-freezing temps and lack of sunlight. So I soupify things meant to be consumed in warmer months. Ta-da! Street corn soup! Which doesn’t really… Read More
Sticky Apple Pie Beer Focaccia Does anyone else think that “pumpkin spice” could just as easily be “apple pie spice” and be less basic and more appetizing or are you normal? I like pumpkin just fine but if it wasn’t shoved right into my face repeatedly from August until January I’d most likely forget about… Read More
Stout Brown Butter and Chocolate Chip Cookies It’s officially stout weather and stout weather waits for no man. The second the mercury drops below 60°F it’s time for a celebratory stout. I will admit that I’ll drink stouts in the middle of an August heat wave but I don’t expect you to partake. That is… Read More
This week is a crossover, it’s a convergence of seasons and it’s my favorite part of the seasonal Venn diagram that makes up the year. We have cozy-fall-fireplace weather but we also still have summer produce in abundance. Including but not limited to the absurd amount of tomatoes in my garden that didn’t get… Read More
This post is sponsored by Vist Bend. All the content and opinions expressed here are my own. Before we get to my new favorite pizza, let’s talk about one of my favorite beer cities on the planet! Bend, Oregon is a city for beer lovers, dog lovers, nature lovers, so add it to your list,… Read More
Ricotta Beer Pancakes with Blueberry Basil Syrup Evening pancakes are the best ones, but —hear me out— not for dinner. Sure, obviously pancakes for dinner are amazing, but I think we are missing the super obvious meal we should be having pancakes for. Dessert. Which, I realize, I just referred to as a MEAL but… Read More
Mini Lime Olive Oil Beer Cakes with Hibiscus Icing Are you growing something? And by that I mean produce not resentment and anxiety, although that too. I’m growing tomatoes because I decided it would make more sense to spend $80 and eleventy billion hours growing a small basket full on my own than going to… Read More
Brie Cheesecake Bars with Sour Ale Roasted Cherries Cheesecake is my love language, but I have another one. It’s feeding people. I’m like an Italian grandmother with a dairy fixation who thinks you’re too skinny and you need to eat more so you’ll be big and strong! So I made you a cheesecake but I… Read More
Cuban Sandwich Sliders with Beer Pickled Peppers and Onions Do you know how long it’s been since I’ve made sandwiches for a crowd? Yes, yes you do. Of course you do! Because you’re a human, with eyes, who has also been a party to the past 18 months of existence in this crazy world. We… Read More
Salted Beer Caramel and Stroopwafel Ice Cream Sandwiches I wanted to make Stroopwafels from scratch because that sort of thing makes me excited. So I read recipe after recipe after historical articles of the origins of these things because obviously, I know how to party. Then I came to my senses and realized I didn’t… Read More
Almond Cake with Beer Caramelized Pineapples and Hibiscus Whipped Cream it’s officially Cake For No Reason Season. We did the thing a few months ago where we gave up things in January (after we ate all the things during the holidays) then we worked out a little so we feel better, and now we don’t… Read More
Grilled halloumi Sliders with IPA Avocado Chimichurri Don’t look at me like that. I know, I KNOW! I grilled another thing. And I don’t even feel bad about it. It’s cheese you can grill (actually grill unlike those misnamed, misleading sandwiches that should be called “pan friend cheese” so no one gets their hopes up). … Read More
Chocolate Stout Covered Dates Stuffed with Dulce de Leche and Toasted Hazelnut Forgive me. I’ve made more Dulce de Leche. Because it’s so easy to make and not screw it up by being on your phone ordering another pair of leggings you don’t need and all of the sudden the caramel is burned and you’re… Read More
