Breads & Breakfast – Julia In The Raw

Naan

April 25, 2022April 24, 2022 by Julia Kline

During my Indian week at the start of the pandemic, I found a pretty simple recipe for naan that turned out great the first time I made it. But the couple times I’ve made it since, it has tasted more like a pretzel. I possibly didn’t take as much care with the instructions as I … Read more

Pumpkin Spice Latte

November 26, 2021November 25, 2021 by Julia Kline

I’ve never been someone to run out to Starbucks the moment PSLs hit the stores. But part of that is because I can’t see spending $5 on what is essentially 2 cups of milk, a shot of espresso and some sugar and spice. So I thought I’d try making it at home. The verdict? I … Read more

Potato Donuts

July 12, 2021 by Julia Kline

This recipe comes from one of my favorite TikTokers, B Dylan Hollis. I made them with my friend Birdie one rainy afternoon using her electric deep fryer. They make a rather heavy, but melt-in-your-mouth donut that’s not quite a cake donut and not quite a raised donut. The cashiers at Trader Joe’s loved them!! Varieties: … Read more

Popovers

March 21, 2021 by Julia Kline

I have always absolutely loved popovers. Anything bready and eggy is always my jam, and that’s pretty much all that popovers are, bread and egg. Unfortunately, mine didn’t pop at all. Possible causes: I used gluten-free flour — so maybe next time add a smidge of baking powder? Another possibility is that the gluten-free flour … Read more

Single serving frittatas

February 8, 2022December 13, 2020 by Julia Kline

I really like the two-bite savory egg custards they make at Starbucks so I thought I’d try making them at home. Starting with this recipe as a jumping off point, I started to improvise. Eggs or eggs white, doesn’t matter – 1/4c egg white or 1-1/2 eggs per bite Pinch of salt (a tiny one, … Read more

Hashbrown & Egg Casserole

December 15, 2020December 13, 2020 by Julia Kline

I love a breakfast strata! The other recipes I have are bread-based; and while they work with gluten-free bread, it’s nice to have one that skips the bread altogether. This is a dish that comes together really super easily, once you know what you’re doing and aren’t checking the recipe every 2 minutes! It’s also … Read more

Homemade Gluten-Free Stuffing

February 21, 2021November 25, 2020 by Julia Kline

Let it be known to all that in the year 2020, Thanksgiving SUCKED. It’s been cold and rainy all week – perfectly befitting a “holiday” where we’re all stuck in our own homes, away from family and friends. I was tempted to just pretend the whole thing wasn’t even happening. But it turns out that … Read more

English Muffins

May 5, 2020May 5, 2020 by Julia Kline

With everyone on quarantine from coronavirus pandemic, the bread recipes are flying around like crazy. These hit my feed and looked too yummy to pass up so I decided to try my hand at them. They did seem a little daunting, so I kept procrastinating. But when I finally got around to making them last … Read more

Indian accompaniments

April 24, 2022April 19, 2020 by Julia Kline

If you’re going to serve an Indian meal, you need an array of chutneys, along with naan, rice and of course spiced masala tea! No-Rise Naan Makes 6 (medium-small) naan The first time I made this, it was awesome. The 2 or 3 times since, they’ve tasted more like pretzels than naan. From looking at … Read more

Easiest Focaccia Ever

April 24, 2020April 17, 2020 by Julia Kline

I sometimes get a huge craving for chewy, crusty white bread, aka focaccia. Trader Joe’s makes a great one that comes in both little rolls and baguettes. But I discovered while on coronavirus quarantine that it’s unbelievably easy to make at home. Granted, I haven’t quit perfected the recipe yet – I only made my … Read more
