This October, Stefin and Andrea are taking a walk down memory lane, revisiting their "Greatest Hits" in the lead up to their monumental 200th episode. Andrea's up first with what is perhaps the perfect autumnal pie (it won her Third Season Blue Ribbon, after all). Then listeners take a turn at the mic, with nominations for a live audio show recorded in Stefin's kitchen, as well as a giant donut made during April 2000's Sweet and Sour Month.

Up first: the James Beard Award announcement for the best books in the Baking & Desserts (and Health!) categories! Equally exciting discoveries of both extensive and whimsical measuring spoon sets are discussed before the hosts move on to this week's Recipe Review of Homemade English Muffins by Gemma Stafford. Is the extra work worth it? This week's bake along is the Healthiest Breakfast Cookies from Choosing Chia and you'll probably have most of the ingredients if you make your own granola at home.

The hosts start the show reminding Listeners to be careful when  sampling raw dough or using raw dough or raw dough mixes in recipes. Stefin's kids' dentist gives her homemade ice cream a thumbs up. The 200th episode is rapidly approaching and the hosts are asking Listeners to share their favorite moment from the first 200 episodes. This week's recipe review is Betty Crocker’s Make Ahead Peach Breakfast Bake. Stefin made this recipe with modifications using Copycat Bisquick from Tonia at The Gunny Sack.

Stefin and Andrea are singing the praises of two cookbooks, Jubilee by Toni Martin, and Regula Ysewijn’s Pride & Pudding — both full of food history, beautiful photographs, and intriguing recipes. Andrea and her family loved the Cheddar, Bacon, and Caramelized Onion Quiche from Good Things Baking Co., despite an unexpected pastry modification. This week, Stefin’s tackling Betty Crocker’s Make-Ahead Peach Breakfast Bake with a planned modification of her own -- homemade Bisquick.

Andrea and Stefin were busy in their kitchens this summer during the August hiatus. Stefin beat the heat with multiple batches of homemade ice cream, including new favorites Cookes and Cream, and Peanut Butter Cup. Andrea became obsessed with the next-level chocolate chip cookie from New Orleans restaurant Josephine Estelle. Going “Back to Breakfast,” the duo intro the month’s first bake along, a Cheddar, Bacon and Caramelized Onion Quiche from Good Things Baking. Finally, is there anything your muffin tin can’t do?

It's finally time for Andrea to make good on her #20for20 promise to make a dessert that tastes as good as the raw cake batter from Episode 122! First stop: the scientists, who say cake batter flavor is a combination of vanilla, nuts and butter. Andrea started trying Funfetti cake batter dips (thanks to listener Miranda!) but found them too 'cream-cheesy' and not fluffy enough. It wasn't until she was making Nigella's No Churn Coffee Ice Cream that she realized it had the texture she wanted. A quick search of the Internet turned up a No Churn Cake Birthday Cake Ice Cream from America's Test Kitchen, always a trusted source.  Did this ice cream fulfill Andrea's quest to safely indulge in raw cake batter?

This August, the hosts are "TCB" -- that's Taking Care of Baking -- to tackle some of their remaining #20for20 baking resolutions. Stefin's up with the third of five Quick Bite episodes: Short and sweet segments to see you through the dog days of summer. Today, she's working on a Tasty Toponym (a food named after a place): Lake Bled Cream Cake from Slovenia. Creamy, rum-infused custard and sweetened whipped cream are sandwiched between crispy sheets of puff pastry. As good as the real deal? You can read the full show notes here.

Andrea’s looking for suggestions for what to do with over-proofed bread dough after a Midwest Made mixup, while Stefin’s looking forward to her summer reading list, which includes Pride & Pudding: A History of British Puddings, Savory and Sweet. Both hosts went rogue on the No-Bake Grasshopper Pie from The Spruce Eats, with mixed results. Then the duo introduce the final “no-bake along” of the month, an Almond Granita from Saveur. Finally, Listeners weigh in on the best summertime treats, from frozen lemonade to hot-fruit cobbler. Will your favorite get a shout out? You can read the full show notes here.

Stefin’s fresh off a "Perfect Pavlova" Zoom class with chef Skye McAlpine, author of A Table in Venice and A Table for Friends, recently released on July 9. Both hosts enjoyed the make-ahead no-bake Salted Caramel and Pecan Cheesecake Pots from Olive magazine, although Andrea found her ingredient splurges made the overall dessert cost a bit too high, and Stefin wished for a more cheesecake-y flavor. This week's bake along is the retro classic No-Bake Grasshopper Pie from The Spruce Eats. Crème de menthe at the ready! Finally, the hosts answer some burning questions about ingredient temperatures and discuss when it matters ... and when it doesn't. You can read the full show notes here.

Andrea’s making incredible progress expanding her GF and dairy-free baking repertoire with Shauna Sever's Giant Peanut Butter Cookies and an adaptable fruit crisp from Weeknight Baking, while Stefin’s looking forward to celebrating National Tapioca Pudding Day on July 15. Reorganizing your pantry this summer? Be sure to check expiration dates and donate any still-fresh dry goods to your local food bank or Little Free Pantry. Both hosts agree that Dorie Sanders' No-Churn Fresh Lemon Ice Cream will be in heavy rotation this summer, but how about the Candied Sesame Seeds? This week’s “assemble along” is Salted Caramel and Pecan Cheesecake Pots from Olive magazine, which seems like a winner based on title alone.

The hosts kick off a month of desserts that rely on your fridge or freezer for some icy delight, and, to help celebrate the US's National Ice Cream Month, start the show with some of the favorites from past seasons: Roasted Strawberry Buttermilk; Sugar Free Chocolate; Dairy Free, GF Spicy Peanut Butter; Classic Chocolate (with Rocky Road mix-ins); and Tahini Chocolate Banana Soft Serve.

What recipe can you bake from memory? Andrea thought she could do a fruit crisp, but maybe she should stick to pie crust. Then it's on to a review of the Black Sesame Cookies from JustOneCookbook and a final wrap-up of Japanese Sweets month with a Blue Ribbon for the dessert each host loved the most.

Stefin and Andrea are excited by the 2020 James Beard Award-nominees for outstanding baking and dessert cookbook, and struggle to decide which they’ll purchase first. Were the Extra Tall Extra Fluffy Japanese Soufflé Pancakes extra delicious or just extra frustrating? This week’s bake along is Black Sesame Cookies from Just One Cookbook, a recipe the hosts already love for its mix of savory and sweet, its use of weights and measures, as well as well-thought-out variations and tips. Finally, in the Resource Roundup, the hosts gather the cookbooks, blogs, and videos that they relied on this month so you can continue your Japanese baking throughout the year.
