Pastéis de Nata (Portuguese Egg Tarts)

I was watching the Portugal episode of Somebody Feed Phil. I love Phil. Anyway, while eating his way through his trip he kept eating Pastéis de Nata, which is a specialty all over Portugal. They are little egg tarts with a cinnamon flavored custard nestled in a flaky puff pastry crust. I had to try them. There a very few Portugese Bakeries in Los Angeles, but I found Natas Pastries in Sherman Oaks. The beautiful tile covered walls made me feel like I was in Europe. We actually had a wonderful lunch there and then had these little custard tarts. Needless to say, I must go back VERY soon.

Bourbon Apple Cake

This Bourbon Apple Cake is a great alternative to apple pie. It has a crunchy, crispy texture because it contains grits and the apples are cut into large chunks. It’s baked in a springform pan which makes it easy to remove the cake from the pan in one piece.

This Chocolate Croissant Bread Pudding came about when we had some leftover croissant. My daughter Zoe found this recipe. The croissant adds richness to the wonderful, chocolatey bread pudding. (like bread pudding needs more richness!).

Rosemary-Orange Cornbread Madeleines

These Rosemary-Orange Cornbread Madeleines have a twist of added flavor. If you don't have a madeleine pan, you can make them into regular muffins. Another variation would be lemon zest and fresh thyme.
