Light, Fluffy and Rich Pancakes from The New York Times

I love these! They are fluffy and thick, definitely rich, and some how a little custard-y without feeling undercooked. I used cottage cheese and Greek yogurt which I processed, along with the egg yolks,... read more >

Pain au Lait Pullman : page 192

Loved this buttery sandwich loaf! I halved this recipe and used my 9 inch pullman pan (without lid). It rose beautifully, the dough was very easy to work with and topped with melted butter when it came out of the oven.

M'Smen : page 28

Wonderful, buttery flatbread! This made me forget all about pita and naan! Granted this is a different animal all together, but was used where I would usually have served pita - for wrapping chicken kabobs (shish tawook)with garlic spread. The dough is very easy to work with, though I did have a tiny bit of tearing while doing the folds, but is was fine once cooked. This is a yeast free dough so it comes together quickly (with a 30 minute rest) and it comes out of the pan flakey and delicious! Next time I may try incorporating herbs or spices, or even some sugar during the folding stage. Also, I will not use the full 6 tablespoons oil since I only used a little over half of the butter/oil mixture, which was plenty.

Banana Bread : page 241

I really enjoyed this unadulterated loaf! It's Banana Bread in its purest form - no spices or topping, no vanilla. The only "extra" here are the walnuts which of course are optional. This bread is baked slow and low (275 for 2 hours in my oven) and comes out super moist and delicious.
