Simple Baking Recipes

Baking doesn't have to be complicated. These recipes focus on simple techniques and accessible ingredients, so you can get something delicious out of the oven without a lot of fuss.

You'll find sweet pies and flaky pastries made with store-bought dough, and a few made-from-scratch Caribbean bakes that are close to my heart.

Some favourites to start with: this Sour Cream Peach Pie is a beautiful summer bake that tastes like my favourite doughnut.

My Pineapple Cream Cheese Turnovers come together quickly with store-bought puff pastry.

And the recipe that I'm most excited to share with you is my mom's Trinidadian Sweet Bread; a recipe that I love to share with people who have never tried it before.

Caribbean Baking

Traditional bakes from the Caribbean, including two Trinidadian treats that my mom has been making for years.
