Baking Recipes for Every Occasion — From Scratch, Every Time

Real ingredients. Tested in a real kitchen. Written for yours.

Welcome to The Baker's Table recipe collection - every from-scratch baking recipe on the site, organized so you can find exactly what you need.

Whether you're looking for a showstopping cake for a birthday, a quick batch of no bake cookies for a Tuesday afternoon, a loaf of homemade bread to fill the house with that smell, or something gluten-free that actually tastes like it wasn't made as a compromise - it's all here.

Every recipe on this site has been tested in my home kitchen in Greenville, South Carolina, with my three kids underfoot and real family feedback at the table. If it didn't work reliably, it didn't make it here. Simple as that.

Not sure where to start? My most-made recipes are the Cinnamon Rolls with Heavy Cream - pillowy, gooey, and built for Christmas mornings - and the Bread Flour Chocolate Chip Cookies, which are what happened when a trip to Levain Bakery turned into a full obsession. My readers' most-made recipe of 2024 and 2025 is the No Bake Oatmeal Cookies - 30 minutes, 7 ingredients, no oven.

New to The Baker's Table?

If you're here for the first time, here's where most people start:

The Baking FAQs for Beginners answers the most common questions - why didn't my cake rise, what does bread flour do, does it matter if butter is cold or softened. The Baking with Kids guide is for parents who want the process to be as good as the result. And the About page tells you a little more about who's behind these recipes and why this blog exists.

Glad you're here. Let's bake something worth sharing.

Real Ingredients.
Real Connections.
Really Good Baking.

Kendra Boettner, owner of The Baker's Table, wife, mother of three, baking for 20+ years in the kitchen, Christian faith
Kendra Boettner, Owner

Hi, I'm Kendra! Wife, mom of three, and baker with a heart for faith-filled hospitality. I grew up learning from my mom and grandmother, spent 20+ years baking at home and in professional kitchens, and now pass those same lessons on to my kids (floury fingerprints included).

At The Baker's Table, you'll find easy, from scratch baking recipes; everything from no bake desserts to dye-free treats. Tested in my own family kitchen and written for yours. Simple, clear, and dependable, with the nostalgic flavors and encouragement busy moms and family bakers need to feel confident.

Whether you are baking for Sunday brunch, your Church small group, or a cozy afternoon at home, I am so glad you are here. Let's bake something beautiful together.
