Top 5 Recipes of 2021

This has been a YEAR.

I’ve been working hard outside of my full-time job to improve my photography and bring high-quality, reliable recipes to the blog. I may not have brought as many new recipes here and I did in previous years, but I’m much happier with every new recipe. They’ve each been extensively tested and all of my favourite people have sampled them. They’re a tough crowd to please so if they like them, they’re good!

To round out the year, I’m bringing you the 5 most popular recipes on the blog over the last 12 months. Some were new to the blog this year and others have been on here for a year or two.

Looking at the top 5, you all are just as obsessed with macarons as I am. I challenged myself to feature a different macaron every Monday on my Instagram this year and I did it! They weren’t all new, but many of them were, or they were old ones that got a much-needed recipe overhaul and some fancy new pictures.

I’ll still feature macarons on occasional Mondays and there will definitely be new recipes coming your way, but 52 macarons was a LOT of macaron baking and I’d like to work on a variety of difference recipes over the next year.

Baking is my favourite way to relax so I’ll still be doing lots of baking, just varying it a little. If you have any requests, just let me know!

Now for the top 5 recipes of 2021.

5. Chocolate Espresso Snickerdoodles

These cookies are soft and fluffy, packed full of chocolate flavour, and rolled in cinnamon sugar. They’re the snickerdoodle you didn’t know you needed.
