Turn the oven on 🌡️ Sweet & Savory Baked Recipes

Hey Reader! It's technically not Fall yet, but the weather looks like it (at least here). So I spent the last week baking all sort of sweet and savory goods, from bread, to pasta bakes, to muffins and tarts (more recipes will come in the next weeks). Easy Italian Spelt Bread (with Instant Yeast)This Easy Italian Spelt Bread is a light, rustic loaf with a rich flavor and great texture, made using spelt flour and instant yeast so it comes together faster. Baking it in a Dutch oven gives you a crisp crust and soft, airy crumb—like artisan bread right at home.
Lemon Ricotta CookiesSoft, fluffy, and bursting with citrus flavor, these Italian Lemon Ricotta Cookies are a classic treat that’s perfect for any occasion. The ricotta cheese makes them wonderfully moist and tender, while fresh lemon zest and juice add a bright, refreshing taste.
