Welcome to The Toasty Kitchen. Here you’ll find everyday home baking recipes, plus the occasional cozy dinner. All of my recipes are simple, reliable, and tested in my own home kitchen.
About me

My name is Heather, and I am the recipe writer behind The Toasty Kitchen. I am a self-taught home cook living in Georgia with my husband. I have a Bachelor of Fine Arts from The University of Akron, and have always had an interest in reading recipes and tinkering in the kitchen.

I started The Toasty Kitchen in 2017 because I wanted a place to collect my recipes. Today, The Toasty Kitchen receives about 9 million visitors per year and houses over 600 unique recipes.
My goal is to share easy recipes using accessible ingredients and advice to help you feel confident in the kitchen. I hope you enjoy reading along and find a new recipe to try!
About the site
At The Toasty Kitchen, you'll find reliable recipes that are easy to make in your own home. Every recipe is tested, written, and photographed by me in my kitchen.

To help you become a successful home cook, every post contains:
- A "Jump to Recipe" button for seasoned cooks
- Tips and tricks for success
- Ingredient substitutions
- Frequently asked questions
- An easy to read recipe card
I don't include "filler" for SEO purposes or my "life story". Everything on the page has a purpose - to help you create the recipe with success every time!
