This Finnish Mustikkapiirakka (Blueberry Tart) is my new favorite holiday treat!
With a buttery crust, juicy blueberries, and creamy custard, it’s a simple yet elegant ( think white Christmas) dessert that’s perfect for brunch or as a festive dessert option. Serve it warm with whipped cream or enjoy it with a cup of coffee for the ultimate cozy holiday vibe.

Here's the recipe:

Ingredients
For the Crust:

1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, softened
1/3 cup (65g) sugar
1 large egg
1 1/4 cups (160g) all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
Pinch of salt
For the Filling:

2 cups (250g) fresh or frozen blueberries
1/2 cup (120ml) sour cream or plain Greek yogurt
1/4 cup (50g) sugar
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tbsp cornstarch (optional, for thickening)
Instructions

Make the Crust:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cream butter and sugar until fluffy. Mix in the egg.
Combine flour, baking powder, and salt, then gradually add to the wet ingredients to form a dough.
Press the dough into a 9-inch tart pan, covering the bottom and sides evenly. Chill for 20–30 minutes while you prep the filling.

Make the Filling:
Spread blueberries evenly over the crust.
Whisk together sour cream, sugar, egg, vanilla, and cornstarch until smooth, then pour over the berries.
Bake the Tart:
Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the custard is set and the crust is golden. Cool slightly before serving.

Let me know in the comments If you’d survive the Krampuslauf!

Big thanks to @karaandnate for putting this madness on my radar 🙌.

If you think Christmas is all cozy markets and mulled wine, you’re in for a surprise. Every December 5th in Salzburg, it’s not Santa who takes center stage—it’s Krampus. Chains clanging, bells roaring, and a swarm of terrifying horned beasts? Welcome to Krampusnacht.

This half-demon, half-goat Alpine legend isn’t messing around. While St. Nicholas rewards the nice, Krampus handles the naughty… and trust me, watching these snarling creatures in action is an experience you won’t forget.

There’s whipping, hat stealing, and even twerking (yes, really). It’s absolute chaos and 100% bucket-list worthy.

So, are you brave enough to face Krampus? Save this for your Christmas bucket list and tag someone who thinks they are.

This tart is inspired by the flavors of a caramel apple but leveled up. Tart Granny Smith apples, rich peanut praline, warm fall spices, and a buttery crust all come together to make a dessert that’s perfect for Thanksgiving, Christmas, or whenever you need a showstopper dessert.

Ingredients
* Premade tart dough or store-bought pie crust
* 1/2 cup roasted peanuts (unsalted)
* 1/4 cup granulated sugar
* 1 tbsp water
* 1 tbsp coconut oil
* 4–5 medium Granny Smith apples (peeled, cored, and thinly sliced)
* 2 tbsp granulated sugar
* 1 tbsp brown sugar
* 1 tsp ground cinnamon
* 1/2 tsp ground ginger
* 1/4 tsp ground cloves
* 2 tbsp apple cider
* 1/4 cup caramel sauce (for drizzling)
Steps
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F. Roll out the chilled dough to fit a 9-inch tart pan. Press it in, trim the edges, and stick it in the fridge to chill while you prep everything else.
2. In a saucepan, heat the sugar and water over medium heat. Swirl (don’t stir!) until it turns golden brown. Pour it over the peanuts on parchment paper, let it cool, then blend it with coconut oil into a smooth paste. Set that aside.
3. Toss the apple slices with the sugars, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and apple cider. Let them hang out for 15 minutes to get nice and juicy.
4. Spread a thin layer of the peanut praline over your chilled crust. Arrange the spiced apples in a spiral pattern on top.
5. Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the apples are soft.
6. Drizzle warm caramel sauce over the top and let everyone marvel at your dessert skills.

This tart is everything I love about caramel apples but in a more refined package, and definitely less messy.
The apples bring that sweet-tart punch, the peanut praline adds a nutty richness, and the buttery crust holds it all together. And those spices?

They make it holiday-worthy in every way.

You’re Definitely Going To Want Make This🤤

Want the recipe, Follow @baguetteandbleu and comment “Briny” ⬇️⬇️⬇️

With inspiration from Eden Grishpans Tahini Sauce recipe (and the introduction to my new favorite pickles/newest pantry staple), I came up with a tasty hummus recipe that uses the pickle brine as a way to or only flavor the hummus, but also elevate every other ingredient too. It’s a certified, must make.
I struggled finding canned pickles, so if you can’t find them, just use regular pickle brine. It just might be a little more Dilly. 😂😂

If you want the recipe, follow @baguetteandbleu and comment “Crunchy” below🙏🙏

As hard as it is to turn away from a pop, tart, or a breakfast burrito, This granola will have you changing your mind. Packed with oats, nuts, and seeds, and essence of coconut, and a subtle sweetness from honey, this might be your new favorite breakfast. To be honest with you, though why would you limited to just breakfast. This is a great snack during the day, could be sprinkled over ice cream, or even warmed up a little bit and used as a garnish or stuffing duck. The possibilities are limitless as long as you’re willing to think about it a little bit using this granola just allows you to add a little healthiness to it, and maybe give yourself the excuse to be able to eat something a little bit unhealthier.

You’re going to NEED this comfort food recipe 🙌🙌.

Please 👍 and share with someone that ❤️’s tasty Noodz!🤤🤤

Easy recipes are a must when you have an active lifestyle. Ensuring your pantry is stocked with plenty of options is a close second. This recipe actually started as something else, but over the years, it has evolved into this quick 20-minute udon noodle recipe. However, the udon isn’t a must. In a pinch, I’ve used instant ramen to make this, and it came out great.👏👏👏

Not only does this recipe work well for dinner, but it also holds well and is a great way to batch a few meals for your week too.😮😮😮

I feel like recently, I’ve been trying to use up leftovers more than I typically do. A few weeks ago, I had an awesome eggroll, so I bought some wrappers thinking I was going to try to duplicate it. Fast forward to a few days after everyone’s favorite Irish holiday, and I found myself with some leftovers. Being one that doesn’t want to waste anything, I made a Reuben sandwich...kind of.
By replacing the bread with an eggroll wrapper, I got to add a huge texture aspect… The Crunch.
Then by using the chopping technique that everybody’s been doing with their Italian subs, I was able to create an eggroll filling that wasn’t going to explode, as it allowed me to get rid of the majority of the air inside the roll. A recent visit to H-Mart saw me score a can of Chinese mustard, which I get to make myself. I get a nice hot mustard and I get to control the heat. Then instead of putting the Russian dressing on the sandwich, I made it into a dip.

And there you go...Reuben egg rolls were born.
It was that easy 😂😂

The Dip was inspired by @jortskitchen 😂😂😂

Colcannon Aligot

It helps me out a TON!

This delicious hybrid started as an idea after I saw Chef Alex Trim luxurious Pommes Aligot recipe a few weeks ago. If you haven’t seen it check it out on his page, along with all of his other stuff. He’s super talented, and it’s me craving that dish that brought this one to reality 😂😂😂.

The last few years I’ve made Colcannon for St. Patrick’s Day, and that’s about the only time that I make/eat it. Typically it’s super thick mashed potatoes with a bunch of fun stuff in it, ranging from cabbage, kale, onions, sometimes leaks, and even bacon. It’s delicious, but do you know how you send it over the edge? Instead of lumpy mashed potatoes, refine it a little bit and turn it into a French pommes purée, with lots of cream and cheese.
Typically you would use Gruyère or something similar, but because we are mixing these dishes I decided to use a nice Irish Dubliner, which worked perfectly. There is so much cheese in this dish, that it starts to actually act like cheese. VERY GOOEY🤤🤤.

With Easter coming up, this would be a great side to for your table. Just don’t be surprised if you see someone in the corner, hiding, eating a bowlful😏😏

There’s something incredibly special about its crispy and crunchy crust, seeing the flavors incorporated popping up sporadically through the surface, and its tender inside that makes every bite feel like a warm hug from Ireland itself. Pairing it with a pint of Guinness elevates the experience to a whole new level – the rich flavors are a match made in heaven! Especially when you’ve incorporated some sweet flavors. 🍺
Slather it with butter, or, and hear me out, room temperature Brie and your favorite Jam. 🤤🤤

Why do I love it? Its became quite the tradition in our household as soon as the season permits it. It’s so simple yet so satisfying, perfectly capturing the spirit of St. Patrick’s Day with every slice.
Steeped in tradition and love, it’s a festive must-have.
