I've talked a lot lately of my baking adventures, and since many of you have asked for recipes I thought that might be a fun Wednesday pick me up.
Let's start with Amber's recipe for pumpkin chili, and Pam's recipe for chocolate zucchini muffins. (If you think either of those sound gross I am here to tell you you're wrong).
I found this recipe for chocolate chip cookies...
...and this one for sugar cookies.
Mandy was kind enough to share her recipe for peach pie, which has been around so long she can't quite remember where it's from. (Maybe A Taste of Home?)
Peach Pie
Ingredients
Filling:
4 cups unsweetened sliced peaches
1 cup sugar, divided
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup (8 ounces) sour cream
Topping:
1/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 cup cold butter
Directions
Press crust into a 9-inch pie plate.
For filling, place peaches in a large bowl; sprinkle with 1/4 cup sugar and toss gently to coat. In another small bowl, combine the flour, egg, vanilla, salt, and remaining sugar; fold in sour cream. Stir into peaches.
Pour into crust. Bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees bake for 20 minutes. Take pie out of oven and increase heat to 450 degrees.
For topping, in a small bowl, combine the sugar, flour, and cinnamon. Cut in butter until crumbly. Sprinkle over top of pie. Bake 15 minutes longer or until topping is browned. Cool on wire rack. Store in refrigerator. (If it makes it that long!)
Still with me?
I got the next two recipes from my mom (not sure where they originated from), but I cleared it with her and she said I could share!

There you have it! What do you think readers? Are you as hungry as I am now? I realize I've done a lot of baking in the past month and a half - I'm pretty proud of myself! Let me know if you try any of these, and how they turn out! And please share recipes in the comments - I'd love to try something new!
Happy hump day!

Kisses,sweetie
Ps: I am hosting a sweet jewelry GIVEAWAY later on today :) Hope you will join in :)!!!
I'm totally going to have to try that peach pie, that looks amazing!!
Wow! Lots of baking happening in your world right now. Everything looks delish! After the marathon, I am hoping to do a bit more baking. All I have baked lately is banana bread... I really want to try to make my own gluten free bread because the stuff in the store is ridiculously expensive... I am just intimidated by recipes that call for yeast... Not sure why!
I think everything sounds incredible and looks delicious. I have a cookie recipe I always use its called an everything cookie -- its my specialty! I'll have to make some for you when you come NEXT MONTH!
And yes, I'm now hungry. Like big time.
I don't know a lot of my recipes by heart but I'll have to send a few your way since you're in a baking mood =) I know I've posted a few on my blog before as well, the most popular being oatmeal carmelitas! They are to DIE for. Not healthy at all but oh so delicious! I wish we lived closer so I could reap some benefits of this fabulous baking you're doing ;-)
My mom made dark chocolate zucchini muffins when she was here and they were TO DIE FOR! I love zucchini muffins of all kinds :-)
I am kind of in a baking mode lately which is very strange for me because that rarely happens to me!
That peach pie looks delicious!!
YUM! It all looks amazing! And the pumpkin chili sounds great. I may have to give it a whirl this weekend. Thanks for sharing!
It all looks delicious! I love to bake. :)
I love just about anything pumpkin, and zucchini bread is amazingly wonderful. Now if I could just work up the motivation to actually bake for myself. I'm going to have to bookmark this post to reference when I'm in the mood.
