A yeast-raised doughnut enriched with butter and warm spices, filled with rose-spiked raspberry jam, dipped in vanilla glaze, and topped with pistachios and dried rose petals.
This diner's signature dessert has been a draw for decades, and the recipe is surprisingly straightforward. Here's how to recreate the cream-topped, fruit-filled pie at home, from the shortening crust to the strawberry-studded glaze.
This homemade beef bone broth builds deep flavor by roasting bones and aromatics before a long, mostly unattended simmer. It yields roughly 8 cups of rich, gelatinous broth that can be sipped on its own or used to give body to soups, braises, sauces and stir-fries.
Paczki are rich jelly doughnuts made from an egg-and-butter dough and finished with a sweet glaze. In the U.S., they are often part of Fat Tuesday celebrations in Polish communities, while in Poland they are traditionally eaten on Fat Thursday. This version fries in vegetable oil instead of lard for easier access, and the recipe yields 15 doughnuts with an apricot or grape jam filling.
These fried cornmeal sticks, filled with Gouda and served with a seasoned mayo-ketchup dip, are a beloved Puerto Rican appetizer. The recipe makes about 25 pieces and can be prepared ahead and frozen for later frying. They are best enjoyed hot and fresh.
Naan, the pillowy North Indian flatbread with charred bubbles and a crisp bottom, is traditionally baked in a tandoor oven that can hit 900°F. Since that's tough to replicate at home, this stovetop method offers a remarkably close alternative, delivering soft, elastic bread with a satisfying chew.
A cinnamon-sugar loaf inspired by the beloved bakery treat at a certain theme park, where lines form for bread that sells at 200 loaves an hour. This version coats soft yeast dough in butter and cinnamon sugar, bakes it, and finishes it with an optional powdered-sugar glaze for dipping.
This pie builds its meringue on a still-hot filling and uses a trio of apple varieties for layered flavor and texture.
These little fried doughnuts vanish quickly, so consider doubling or tripling the recipe. Fill them with whatever jam or jelly you like best, or branch out with chocolate-hazelnut spread or lightly sweetened whipped cream.
Buttery sugar cookies cut into fish shapes and hand-painted in vivid Mediterranean colors offer a playful, sweet twist on the Italian Christmas Eve Feast of the Seven Fishes. The project is as much about decorating as it is about eating, making it a cheerful holiday kitchen activity.
These almond-scented, tricolor cookies hide a pocket of apricot or raspberry jam inside, then get a double chocolate coating and a sprinkle finish. They capture the nostalgic appeal of the layered Italian bakery favorite but offer a chewy, jam-filled bite that feels both festive and fun for any occasion.
Make heart-shaped donuts filled with jam and dusted with sugar. The dough requires a couple of rises but is straightforward to prepare. A fun project for a homemade treat.
These ultra-thin, lacy British cookies are baked until caramel-brown, then rolled while warm and filled with whipped cream. The result contrasts a shatteringly crisp shell with a soft, fluffy center. Traditionally, brandy snaps contain no brandy—though this version offers an optional splash in the cream for adults. Golden syrup, a common British baking ingredient, can be found in some supermarkets or online.
