You’re in luck this St. Patrick’s Day because we’ve rounded up all the recipes you’ll need to get your Irish on. Each dish packs a punch of traditional Irish flair, with plenty of stout, soda bread, and natural green color to spare. From a delicious chocolate stout cake and Maple-and-Beer Glazed Doughnuts to brilliant green Matcha Macarons filled with Baileys buttercream, these delicious baked goods are the real pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.
1. Matcha Macarons with Baileys Original Irish Cream Buttercream Filling
Amisha Gurbani (of The Jam Lab blog) combines drinks and dessert with her macarons sandwiched with a Baileys Original Irish Cream Buttercream Filling. The addition of earthy matcha powder gives a festive green color to the macaron shells without overpowering the taste.
2. Rosemary Parmesan Soda Bread
The divine pairing of fresh Parmesan and rosemary strikes a perfect balance between the simple ingredients and deliciously complex flavors in this savory take on tradition.
3. Fig Brownies with Sour Beer Caramel
Though fresh figs are delicious gems in their own right, there is much to be gained by baking with the dried form. We like to add them to fudgy brownies to impart an intense, caramel-like sweetness. Here, crystallized ginger and our Sour Beer Caramel add complementary spicy and tangy counter notes.
Use our classic Babka recipe and add our pistachio filling to bring some color and crunch to our favorite twisted and braided bread. Check out our new Babka Back Page column in our March/April 2018 Issue!
5. Maple-and-Beer Glazed Doughnuts
For milder beer flavor, brush hot beer doughnuts in melted butter and toss in a brown bag with lots of cinnamon sugar before topping with maple glaze.
