Roasted eggplant makes an interesting and flavorful hummus

The Perfect Roast Turkey
The Turkey. It’s the prize of the table, no need for a centerpiece with this bird, for if it’s cooked right its glory is more than regal enough to make your table glow. This year we are getting our own bird and I couldn’t be more excited to try a wild Oregon bird. Normally I pour over the local stores and their turkey providers, weighing the pros and cons of heritage birds, organic birds, and trying my hardest to find a free range bird that lived a healthy life before it lands on my table. This year my husband will be hunting for a perfect wild bird to grace our table and I am over the moon!
Roasted Banana Cake
This delicious banana cake gets extra flavor from roasted bananas in the cake and brown butter in the frosting.
Some things are just magical. Like avocados. They have some kind of magical effect on me, they make me feel fantastic and they taste fantastic.
Roasting foods is another magical thing. Roasted vegetables? Waaaay better than regular vegetables. Roasted chicken? Waaaay better than regular chicken.
Which is why I roasted the bananas for this cake. Because roasted bananas are magically better than regular bananas. You can trust me, because I don’t actually like bananas plain, but the roasted bananas are really quite delicious.
You know what else is magical? Brown butter. Lawd have mercy, that stuff is good.
Which is why I used brown butter and cinnamon to make the frosting for this cake. Brown butter frosting is the magical best.
