Madeleines
Warning – these Madeleines are so delicious, it will be difficult for you to stop at only one 🙂 So share, share, share!
Pâte à Brioche
A delectable French recipe that you can enjoy along with a cup of hot coffee or tea!
Quatre-Quarts (Pound Cake)
Afternoon snack staple at my house! So easy to make, only contains 4 ingredients!
Pain d’épices
A French classic, pain d’épices is sold in loaves, but sometimes sold in squares, cut from giant slabs. And because they’ve got a good dose of honey in them, honey merchants usually sell them. Kind of a cross between a cake and a bread clever French hosts (and hostesses…and probably everyone in between) will cut them in thin slices to serve under slabs of foie gras. But you don’t have to go to France to enjoy this amazing French Classic!
Bacon & Cheese Quiche
This is one of my favorite dishes to make and it is always a hit in the house! It may sound like a ton of work and it may feel like it is easier to just buy it at Costco … trust me, it is much better when made from home!
Buckwheat Crêpes
Unlike wheat flour crêpes, I can’t see making a practice of rolling up a buckwheat crêpe and just popping it into my mouth plain. The buckwheat gives these a much stronger flavor, and really need to be part of a larger plan.
French Mixed Endive Salad with Apple, Cheese and Walnuts
An easy, quick to prepare and healthy mixed salad, often prepared by French families.
Instant Pot Crème Brûlée
Crème brûlée has long been my favorite French dessert, and it is surprisingly easy to make at home (especially if you have an Instant Pot).
Tarte aux Pommes
Mousse au Chocolat
This voluptuous mousse with its darkly intense chocolate frothed with airy eggs to a texture as light as hummingbirds’ wings ranks high on the happiness side! Enjoy!
Pâte à Brioche

Petits Pains au Chocolat
Aux côté des croissants, les pains au chocolat sont des viennoiseries incontournables de la gastronomie française.
Croissant Dough
Flour, water, butter, yeast, sugar, and salt—these are the deceptively simple components of the ubiquitous French pastry that’s known and loved worldwide for its flaky layers, subtle crunch, and tender interior.
Chicken with Vinegar Sauce
When I first tried a classic version of vinegar chicken in Tours, France, I wished it was tangier. So, back home, I add a hefty amount of Banyuls wine vinegar to the sauce. I just love the way the vinegar froths up when you add it to the pan. I finish the chicken in the sauce to infuse it with extra flavor 🙂
French Onion Soup
This easy French onion soup recipe will rival any you’ve had at a restaurant. Topped with crispy, cheesy baguette, it’s rich, savory, and comforting.
Croque-Monsieur
A Parisian favorite at cafés for lunch or supper after an evening on the town.
Ratatouille
Ratatouille is a specialty if Provence in the south of France, made in the summer when gardens are bursting with produce and the vegetables are ripe, ripe, ripe!
