Behold! One of many apple-related recipes coming your way. It’s fall which means it’s apple baking season. Apples are available all year round, but fall baking with apples just seems so right.

Cherry Yogurt Pound Cake

They don’t call it a pound cake for nothing, but don’t worry about the amount of butter while you’re eating it, just focus on that when you’re at the gym next time. With cherries still in season we might as well enjoy them as much as we can before we move to baked goods with [...]
