Why This Walnut Cake Recipe Will Be Your New Fall Obsession!

August 27, 2024 · In: Entertaining, Recipe

Sometimes changing one thing is subtle and sometimes it’s the birth of something new!! Every Fall I crave my Yiyia’s Karidopita (Walnut cake). There’s something about this cake that screams FALL, WARM, and COZY! I grew up eating this cake and now I look forward to making it each year. This year I added my own twist and it is truly amazing!

Yiyia’s walnut cake is perfect for Fall with the spices, the nuts, the honey. This year I had some pears that were perfectly ripe so I took a chance and it paid off! The mix of the spiced nuts and the creamy baked pears is absolute perfection. If you want to take it up a notch (why would you ever settle for going down a notch 😅) add a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Here’s my Yiyia’s recipe with my new addition, I hope you enjoy!

Comment FALL to get the links! (& find more inspo!) 

Guys!! I’m so happy right now I’m about to cry! The cuteness factor is off the charts!! I’m so excited to see our vision for our fall porch come together complete with pumpkins from the pumpkin patch!! 

And can we talk about Louis in his adorable fall sweater?! And the wreaths (they are faux!!!) and the lanterns and the flickering pumpkins?!!! 

If you could die from cuteness overload I’d be a goner! Hahaha but thankfully it looks like I’ll be holding on for a few more days and greeting our kids as they come home for fall here and it won’t be long and this will be getting a little Halloween overlay for trick or treaters! 

To me, these are the greatest moments of life. Creating a home that says “welcome home!” I hope in our own little way we can inspire you as well! As always, sending so much love from our home to yours! XxV
