Breakfast

Got leftover spaghetti in the fridge? If you've also got eggs, then you've got supper. A simple, frugal specialty of a chef from Chez Panisse, this comes together with spectacular ease.

This is the homemade Greek yogurt of your dreams. Seriously. Folks are calling it the creamiest and most loveliest homemade yogurt ever.

If you're the sort who likes things spicy, whether first thing in the morning or at the end of a crazy day, then we've got a quick and easy scrambled eggs recipe for you.

These curiously named, easy peasy, shamelessly simple meldings of biscuit and muffins may make you swear off roll-out biscuits for good.

Think granola bars but in soft, crumbly cookie form. That's what you get with these sorta virtuous, sorta naughty little lovelies.

Yes, a recipe for cinnamon sugar. Because ‪‎so often life leaves us wanting to be a kid again. And this proportion of cinnamon to sugar is the bomb.

No more excuses about how there's a dearth of decent bagels in your neighborhood. Nope. Not when you can make these.

This homemade farmer cheese is rich, creamy, lovely, and crazy easy to make. Sorta like a poor man's (or shall we say, lazy man's) homemade ricotta. Here's how to make it.

A gooey, sweet, classic bread made from pull-apart blobs of brioche dough coated in a buttery, cinnamony caramel sauce that's gonna distract you in the best possible way.

All the usual suspects—butter, sugar, eggs, nuts, and, natch, bananas–are here, save for gluten. And we were so tempted by the resulting taste and texture, we didn’t even miss it.

Sure, you could traipse to a bakery and buy brioche rather than make them yourself. But where’s the satisfaction in that?

"The best biscuits I've ever had!" is what we're hearing from many, many, many folks who when they first try these easy no-rolling-required biscuits. Amen to that.

Incomparably easier than traditional English muffins yet with all the requisite nooks and crannies that God—and the British—intended.

There's a lot to be said for a diner-style dish like this one, though we prefer it made at home, minus the wobbly seats, the sticky laminated menu, and sometimes surly service.

All the cream cheesy goodness of an individual Danish that you've come to love. But in pillowy bread form. Which makes it oh so easy to snitch just a smidgen more.

This frugal supper is laughably easy to make, European in flair, and comforting to both the palate and the pocketbook.

A simple, step-by-step recipe for the classic French crepe that can easily be mastered by anyone. Yes, anyone. Including you.

A comforting, satiating breakfast, lunch, or supper. The sort of sustenance that never, ever disappoints.

Buttery, rich pound cake is ribboned with a marmalade layer, steeped in blood orange syrup, and finished off with a tartly sweet orange glaze. Sigh.

Apples and spice and everything nice. Including the slight surprise of pistachios.
