I’m so excited to finally announce my first e-book:

Homestyle Hungarian Baking: Simple Coffeehouse Favorites for the Home Kitchen

While I spent a lot of time in Budapest filming the showstopper desserts, I kept noticing the quieter, simpler bakes that appear all over Hungary, both in coffeehouses and in home kitchens. These everyday recipes are just as much a part of Hungarian cuisine as the creations of pastry chefs.

This book is about those recipes. Simple Hungarian bakes you’ll find in bakeries but might just as easily see on a grandmother’s table.

They’re practical, unfussy, and suited to home kitchens, and this collection is my way of sharing the foods that felt most rooted in daily Magyar life.

In this book you will:

—Get a feel for Hungarian food culture through simple, everyday bakes
—Bake 9 classic Hungarian cakes, pastries, cookies, and breads
—Learn practical European baking techniques adapted for real home kitchens
—Discover Central European flavors like poppy seed, sour cherry, walnut, & apricot
—Follow clear, reliable recipes with both US and metric measurements

This book was created as a companion to the video series I'm releasing over the next few weeks. Taken together, they offer a well-rounded look at Hungarian baking culture—both the showstoppers and the everyday bakes.

I hope you enjoy this! So much love went into testing and curating these recipes for you all!

My husband brought these ingredients home from Scandinavia, so I turned them into a loaf of Swedish limpa bread.

Flavored with fennel, anise, & caraway, then brushed with syrup after baking, it's one of my favorites.

Would you eat this with butter or with cheese? Recipe ⬇️

I’ve not been posting as much on Bake Across Europe because I’ve found battling the algorithms on all platforms to be such a grind. I’m looking into setting up a home micro bakery while still providing occasional videos, newsletters, & posts. We’ll see how this goes. 🙏🏻

@nicholascarrigg I get so annoyed with the one that always stands on the food.

@gregcello The austere colonist style is the best. 😉

@quachelsey The winter is sooo hard. Then spring hits and I'm like, "What is the garden of Eden that live in?!"

@lynnett44 @Leon_F_T @OldHollowTree Thank you!

It was a lovely spring dinner last night. The dessert was pavlova with poached rhubarb drizzled with rose syrup. I was blown away by the flavor.

@Leon_F_T shared the recipe with me. Give him a follow if you love cooking & baking content of the highest caliber.

@OldHollowTree And not to mention that Humming Meadow candles graced the table!

@catsmeaow1 Thank you, it was so good!

[Kristin | Bake Across Europe @BakeEurope]

@Rahabtheharlot3 @Leon_F_T @OldHollowTree They're radishes dipped in basil butter!

[Kristin | Bake Across Europe @BakeEurope]

@LadyHollowTree @KristinCarrigg @Leon_F_T @OldHollowTree They're little works of art. They made the table lovely!

[Kristin | Bake Across Europe @BakeEurope]

@GailJ808 Such a good flavor combo!

[Kristin | Bake Across Europe @BakeEurope]

These were such a hit with my guests that I think I'm going to make a video on these. They were sooo good.

I'm hosting a spring dinner party tonight, and I made these pistachio cardamom madeleines 🇫🇷 to go with our coffee after dinner.

I made the glaze by melting white chocolate with this cream of pistachio.

The green is so beautiful for a spring party! 🌱

[Kristin | Bake Across Europe @BakeEurope]

I'll send the recipe out this week via email!

@PascalGauvin1 Someone needs to contact the Lisbon Tea Co marketing department, then. 😅 It says it on their packaging.

Today, I learned that São Miguel in the Azores 🇵🇹 is home to the only tea plantation in Europe.

It's a very fragrant black tea, and I'll definitely be buying it again!
