This loaf has a delightfully moist texture, which is achieved by incorporating a good amount of powdered sugar, which dissolves into the batter. Lemon juice is added for subtle flavour and acidity, which also helps the bread rise, much like buttermilk would. Coconut lovers will also enjoy the inclusion of coconut milk and oil into the batter, as well as shredded coconut as a topping.

Lemon loaf is a classic, made even more moist with the addition of harvest zucchini. Since the vegetable is 94% water, it hydrates the batter in an incomparable way. To enhance the lemon flavour, the bread is soaked in a lemon syrup after baking, adding a sweet and crispy layer to the surface. It’s just as tasty as the standard lemon poppy seed loaf!

Yes! Squash season is fast approaching, and that means you’ll soon be craving pumpkin spice everything, a craving that can be satisfied with this loaf that also includes large chocolate chunks. The crumb is incredibly moist, due in part to the sour cream. The top of the loaf is covered with a cocoa-spice crumble for a delightful textural contrast.

For a quick weeknight meal, the sheet pan is your best ally. Roast your bell peppers first and then add your trout fillets. Serve the dish with couscous and spinach flavoured with garlic and curry powder for a wonderfully flavourful dish.

This tofu recipe will surely make a regular appearance on your weeknight rotation. It’s impossible to resist its super-crispy texture, achieved by coating the tofu pieces in cornstarch, as well as the sweet-and-savoury, syrupy sauce. This dish is reminiscent of our General Tao tofu but with an orange flavour.

For this pasta dish, sauté garlic and onions for a few minutes until caramelized and their sweetness shines through. Deglaze with white wine and cream, and then reduce the sauce to concentrate the flavours. Toss linguine cooked al dente into the pan, adding a bit of pasta water for a smooth and creamy sauce. It’s a dish both simple enough for a Tuesday night and elegant enough for Saturday-night guests.

The best trick to enjoying seafood without spending a lot of money is to spread its flavour throughout a dish rather than serving a large amount. In this tagliatelle dish, the shrimp is chopped into little pieces so that you get some in every bite, and the sauce is also well flavoured. It also boasts the anise taste of fennel, softened with carrot and garlic, and then combined with tomatoes and chili pepper for a spicy kick.

Rice Pudding Brûlée

Although it can be enjoyed as a dessert at the end of a meal, this morning bread is hearty enough to be a complete breakfast, given that it’s loaded with grated carrots and apples, dates, dried fruits and seeds. It was named after the restaurant where it was invented in the late 1970s, so as to appeal to customers who were increasingly seeking healthier eating options. Pop a slice in the toaster and spread some whipped honey and cinnamon butter on it. There’s nothing better for a, well, glorious morning!

This delicious loaf is loaded with large apple pieces and pecans. Once it’s baked, poke small holes into the cake and pour a cream and maple sauce over it. Then put the cake back into the oven so that the sauce can soak through. It’s even better with a scoop of ice cream (if you’re having it for dessert, of course!)
