Maple Cinnamon Loaf

Maple and cinnamon: a match made in heaven

I'm just going to come right out and say it: this maple cinnamon loaf recipe is an absolute game changer. I love substituting sugars in recipes for syrup or honey, and creating this sweet treat was the perfect combination of these tastes.

Getting (b)ready for fall

I'm still convinced that September 1st is the beginning of fall, and am adjusting my baking as such. Give me some Norah Jones, some cloudy days and chilly winds and I'll give you way too many delicious desserts.
