Oven Bake

Breakfast Casserole with Bacon

Breakfast casserole with bacon, loaded with eggs, cheese and bacon, and finished off with an avocado and tomato topping.

Veggie Tot Casserole

Casserole filled with sausage crumbles, egg mixture, and veggie tots topped with cheese.

Yorkshire Pudding

This classic Yorkshire pudding recipe comes from the original 1961 edition of The New York Times Cookbook. Serve with your favorite roast beef.

Escargot With Garlic-Parsley Butter

Sadly, you’re not going to be able to waltz down to the corner store and pick up escargot and shells. We ordered the Saveurs brand, along with the shells, from Amazon. This recipe is worth the wait.

Mushroom-Thyme Pot Pies

Brushing the underside of the dough with egg wash for this pot pie recipe creates an airtight seal so that steam will push the pastry lids into a dramatic dome during baking.

Mashed Baked Potatoes with Chives

Baking the potatoes for this recipe is a completely hands-off cooking process that also reduces some of the water content in the spuds, resulting in the easiest and most flavorful mash of all time.

Duchess Baked Potatoes

If you’ve ever asked if mashed potatoes can be cooked ahead, the answer is this recipe. The texture is like that of a twice-baked potato.

Cheesy Sausage and Sage Stuffing

This holiday-worthy recipe was inspired by bread pudding and ended up somewhere between a strata, a gratin, and a traditional Thanksgiving stuffing.

Cacio e Pepe Chips

Cacio e pepe works on so many things, this potato chip recipe is just our latest obsession with using the whole flavor combination.

Roasted Winter Vegetable Baklava

Traditionally, baklava is a Middle Eastern dessert, but we fell head over heels for this savory rendition. Roasting coaxes out the earthy magic in hearty root vegetables and fennel, which are then tossed with fresh dill and baked in walnut-layered phyllo until it's golden brown.

Winter Panzanella With Stuffing Croutons

Stuffing salad still counts as salad, right?

Croque Madame With Cranberry-Mustard Relish

You know how the cheese sometimes oozes out of a grilled cheese while it’s cooking and gets all brown and crunchy when it hits the skillet? Well, this open-face sandwich recipe is dedicated to making that happen on purpose.

Thanksgiving Skillet Pizza

Transform the last of your Thanksgiving leftovers into this irresistible pizza, with mashed potatoes taking the place of tomato sauce.

3-Ingredient Sweet Potato Casserole With Maple Pecans

Maple syrup pumps up the flavor of puréed sweet potatoes and provides a sweet glaze for extra-peppery candied pecans in this classic Thanksgiving side.

Shakshuka (Baked Eggs With Spicy Tomato Sauce)

Shakshuka means “all mixed up” in Hebrew and is one of the most popular breakfast dishes in Israel and at Sofra. Many countries in the Middle East and Eastern Mediterranean claim a version of their own, like Tunisian chakchouka, made with peppers and harissa, and a Moroccan version made with lamb sausage and harissa. The eggs are poached directly in the spicy tomato sauce, so it’s important that the sauce is well seasoned and warmed before you add the eggs.

Quark (Sour Fresh Cheese)

I like spreading Quark on my morning slice of bread and topping it with jam, but you can also mix it with salt and herbs and dollop it next to boiled potatoes for a light meal. Using buttermilk will result in skim Quark, which is best for baking recipes. If you want a creamier Quark to eat as is, simply stir a little heavy cream into the Quark to loosen and enrich it. (Mixed with high-quality fruit preserves, this makes for a luxurious little snack.)

Cassoulet in the Style of Toulouse (Cassoulet de Toulouse)

This is the recipe given to me by Pierrette Lejanou. The addition of walnut oil at the last moment brightens the taste of the beans. Begin preparations two days before you plan to serve the cassoulet.

Meat Loaf With Mushroom Gravy

My mom's meat loaf is inarguably better than yours, but this is not my mom's meat loaf recipe. This one is an amalgam, intended to evoke all the important meat loaves in my life—and there have been many.

Roasted Zucchini Lasagna

Zucchini ribbons take the place of pasta in this naturally gluten-free vegetarian casserole.

Quinoa and Sweet Potato Bakes

Make these gluten-free quinoa and sweet potato "muffins" ahead for a quick breakfast or energizing mid-day snack.
