Summer Fruit Coffeecake

PollyAugust 23, 2025August 28, 2025

I adore coffeecake. Coffeecake is served warm, so it’s comforting and can be served directly from the pan it was baked in. It doesn’t have frosting, so it’s not too-too overly sweet. It’s communal, shouting out to be shared with…

Apricot Cream Scones

PollyJuly 22, 2025July 30, 2025

This is my all-time favorite American-style scone—no butter or jam needed! The chopped white chocolate and diced apricots provide plenty of sweetness, and there’s no butter in this recipe, but there’s plenty of cream! The original version of this recipe…

Traditional English Scones, Yorkshire Edition

PollyJuly 21, 2024August 5, 2025

This picture is a bit embarrassing. Classic British Scones are neater, straighter, and slightly smaller than the ones pictured here 🙂 When British people talk about scones, what they are picturing is a simple raisin scone. The one alternative to…

Coconut-Banana Muffins

PollyNovember 28, 2023July 15, 2025

I love muffins and I love all things coconut! I can’t think of anything better on a cool Sunday morning than a warm coconut muffin, a latte, some social media, something to read, jammies, and fluffy slippers. This recipe makes…

Cracked Sugar Pumpkin-Apple Muffins

PollySeptember 11, 2022August 28, 2025

Pumpkin isn’t only for October and November, you know.  I hope you have an extra can or two of pumpkin puree on hand for the other ten months of the year 🙂  This isn’t a pumpkin muffin, and it isn’t…

Grandma’s Buttermilk Cornbread

PollyAugust 19, 2019July 18, 2025

As a young kid, Jiffy brand cornbread was my favorite and because it was cheap—about fifteen cents a box—it fit into my family’s budget.  The mix only required one egg and a ÂĽ cup of milk or water to make…

Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffins

PollyOctober 16, 2010August 28, 2025

My new favorite muffin recipe, just in time for your fall weekend baking:  Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffins!  This muffin has been likened to the Starbucks Cream Cheese Pumpkin Muffins, and I think that’s a fair comparison, but I like this…

Blueberry Oatmeal Muffins

PollyJanuary 19, 2010August 18, 2025

Everyone seems to have a favorite blueberry muffin recipe, I do, too! For me, I think it’s the cup of oats and the just hidden hint of lemon that sets these blueberry muffins above all the others. I just made…

About Me

polly of the kitchen

It's all about the recipe—really, it is! I have amassed quite a collection of recipes from my favorite cookbooks, food magazines, friends, the Internet, and more recently my adult daughters. I test every recipe I post. Some I've been cooking for years, decades even, and a few I have made only a few times. I don't post mediocre recipes. I don't post good recipes. I post GREAT recipes! When I find a recipe I LOVE, I can't wait to share it. I started In the Kitchen with Polly on January 01, 2010, a joint venture between myself and my non-cooking but most excellent webmaster, proofreader, technical goddess and all-around bestie, ratty (not a joke—ratty is her chosen nickname—her Mama didn’t do that to her, she did it to herself!). Last year we hit a snag—the website went up in monstrous flames. It took a long time to sort out what happened and even longer to recreate what was lost. Hundreds of pictures gone, and every recipe we posted (300+) over the last 14 years had to be reformatted, many pictures retaken. It's done now though, and we are back! I like this brighter version :) Scroll through! Find something you like, and let's get cooking! There’s a search button and there are also tags to click on if you want to find a recipe for a specific food. If you need it, the print button is on the preview page and at the end of each post.

Enjoy!
