Almond Flour Cookies

These almond flour cookies are easy to make in one bowl! Chewy, nutty, and filled with melty chocolate chips, they're a delicious gluten-free treat.

These almond flour cookies are chewy, nutty, and filled with melty chocolate chips. They’re totally gluten-free, but you don’t have to be to love them. In fact, these almond flour chocolate chip cookies are one of the treats I make most often. The recipe first appeared in my second cookbook, Love & Lemons Every Day, and I’ve made it countless times since the book was published. I thought it was about time I shared it here too. These cookies couldn’t be easier to make. The recipe calls for 10 ingredients and comes together in one bowl. If you have almond…

Thai Green Curry

This 30-minute Thai green curry recipe is a delicious weeknight dinner! Store-bought curry paste, fresh ginger, and lime juice fill it with bold flavor.

This Thai green curry recipe is a restaurant-worthy weeknight dinner! It’s fresh, flavorful, and bright, yet it still comes together in 30 minutes thanks to an easy pantry shortcut: store-bought green curry paste. Made with aromatic ingredients like green chilies, lemongrass, and makrut lime leaves, the curry paste is packed with bold flavor. Simmered in coconut milk with fresh ginger and lime juice, it creates a curry sauce that’s rich, fragrant, and a little bit sweet. I can’t say it’s better than my go-to Thai restaurant (sometimes, nothing but takeout will do), but it comes pretty darn close. You could use any…

Brown Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

Brown butter fills these chocolate chip cookies with rich, caramelized flavor. With crisp edges and chewy centers, they're a bakery-worthy treat!

These brown butter chocolate chip cookies are insanely delicious. They have lightly crisp edges, perfect chewy middles, and melty chocolate in every bite. Best of all, brown butter (plus an extra dose of brown sugar) fills them with toffee-like flavor. I went through a bit of a browned butter phase last year, after I started making these blondies and couldn’t get enough them. Around that time, I tried using brown butter in my classic chocolate chip cookie recipe. We devoured every last one of those cookies, but they didn’t have the toasty, nutty brown butter flavor I was after… Many…

It’s official: these lemon ricotta pancakes are my favorite weekend breakfast. They’re gloriously light and fluffy, like bouncy pancake pillows, and they have a wonderful zesty flavor. Topped with blueberry compote or a drizzle of maple syrup, they’re lightly sweet, bright, and delicious. You know you’re going to have a good day when it starts with these lemon ricotta pancakes. 🙂 Ok, if you’re thinking, “Cheese? In pancakes?!” I hear you. But you don’t actually taste the ricotta here. It acts like Greek yogurt and sour cream do in many sweet recipes, making these pancakes exceptionally moist and tender. It also…

It calls for simple, fresh ingredients. Think ripe avocados, onion, cilantro, and lime. It’s DELICIOUS. This homemade guacamole is creamy, zesty, and bright. I developed the recipe after years of living in Austin, Texas. The city has incredible Tex Mex and Mexican food, and I’ve eaten a TON of great guac at local restaurants there. Eventually, it inspired me to learn how to make guacamole at home. With…

Tiramisu

This easy tiramisu recipe has delicious layers of espresso-dipped ladyfingers and creamy mascarpone. It's a show-stopping no-bake dessert!

Is there anything more delicious than tiramisu? This Italian dessert consists of decadent layers of espresso-dipped ladyfingers and plush mascarpone cream. It’s perfectly creamy and only lightly sweet, with a rich dusting of cocoa powder on top. On our first trip to Italy, I ordered it at every restaurant Jack and I went to. It’s just that good. After I shared this strawberry tiramisu last summer and this pumpkin tiramisu in the fall, I couldn’t resist developing a classic tiramisu recipe too. I’m so happy with how this one came out. It’s impressive and indulgent, but deceptively easy. This tiramisu…

Homemade Blue Cheese Dressing

This homemade blue cheese dressing recipe is so much better than store-bought! Creamy, thick, and tangy, it's a delicious dip or salad dressing.

Meet my go-to blue cheese dressing recipe! Easy to make with 9 simple ingredients, it’s creamy, tangy, and flecked with tender crumbles of blue cheese. I’ve been getting requests for a blue cheese dressing recipe ever since I shared these buffalo cauliflower wings a few years ago. After testing and tweaking this one with various ratios of mayo, buttermilk, and sour cream, I’m happy to report that it works perfectly as a dip for wings or veggies. With a little more buttermilk (or regular milk) stirred in, it becomes a flavorful, pourable salad dressing too. I’ve never been a fan…

This miso butter recipe is 2-ingredient magic. A simple mixture of softened butter and white miso paste, it’s rich, creamy, and bursting with umami. I love keeping it on hand (or whipping it up at the last minute) to give simple meals an instant flavor upgrade. I’m currently obsessed with miso butter on a baked sweet potato, but it’s also wonderful on roasted vegetables, noodles, and more. If you’re used to eating miso in miso soup, the combination of miso and butter might surprise you. But trust me—once you try this recipe, it’ll make perfect sense. The lightly sweet, savory miso…
