Ricotta Cookies
Dec 15, 2010
Classic cookies are always a summer weekend favourite and easy for even a non-baking guest to make. Save some to bake into another treat, Fudgy Cookie Brownies, for a completely different sweet.
Waffle irons are quite affordable and easy to use – perfect for any household with kids. Serve with maple syrup and bananas in winter or fresh berries in summer.
The balance of spices and the two kinds of molasses give these cookies a most appealing taste that does not fade, even when the cookies are several weeks old.
Heat up the griddle for a sweet (or savoury) at-home brunch. Tip: If using regular ricotta, press through fine strainer before using.
Chunks of peaches put flavour in every bite of these muffins. If fresh peaches are unavailable, drain canned or thawed peaches well and place on paper towels to absorb any excess liquid before using.
This one-pan meal is appropriate for breakfast before a big hike or canoe trip. Serve with maple syrup or honey.
White chocolate chunks make these cookies extra special and irresistible.
Bananas help reduce the amount of fat needed both to make this loaf and keep it moist. Let bananas ripen fully, even to the brown-skin stage, for ultimate flavour.
