Cakes & Muffins

Baking for two can be just as rewarding as baking for a crowd. There is something especially lovely about making a small cake or a few muffins to share, whether you are celebrating something special or simply want a homemade treat without ending up with too much. In this collection, you will find small-batch cake and muffin recipes that make baking for two feel easy, cozy, and completely worthwhile.

This is the place to find cakes baked in smaller pans, like 6-inch or 8-inch cake pans, as well as muffin recipes that make 6 instead of 12. From an Apricot Almond Cake to a Cranberry Ricotta Cake, these recipes are designed for smaller households while still delivering all the pleasure of homemade baking.
