M&S apple blackberry pie.

Some how I'm not inspired to do my own baking lately. :(

How could I have missed this?

I bake.

A LOT.

Tonight, The Barefoot Contessa's Raspberry Cornmeal muffins.

They are brill!

I also made the granola, but used muesli I bought at the farmer's market and it's still fab.

I baked a breakfast casserole for my guests this morning. They never had one before so I was happy to introduce them to the concept!  ;D

You put a layer of cubed bread on the bottom of a baking dish, then a layer of browned sausage meat, then an egg mixture with cheese, spring onions and seasonings is poured on top and baked for about an hour. You can really put anything you want in it, but this is the recipe I used from my Cooking Light cookbook. It's super easy and I did most of the prep the day before so I just had to assemble and bake this morning. They're great if you have guests or if you're having a brunch.

Thanks, sounds good, I might do that next weekend. I like things you can shove in the oven and leave there for a while!

Liz, there are variations, too. I like one that uses frozen hashbrowns on the bottom, pancetta, and eggs. Of course you can do vegetarian versions, too!

Thanks! I was envisioning fresh raspberries in the muffins, but jam is great, too. I love anything cornmeal!

I just bought some chocolate chips from Costco so must decide what to bake with those now!

My smoked haddock bake tonight was delicious.  A bit too easy, though... Just chopped tomatoes, garlic, balsamico, sliced potatos and smoked fish fillets baked together and topped with cilantro and green onions.

(I usually spend yogs on sauces, but just tossed everything together in a hurry.  I think the smoked fish really made the difference.)
