Manhattan

Bub's Bakery reimagines baked goods with allergy-free recipes

2025-12-10

We're taking you to a bakery that's catering to everyone, and that's because they don't serve anything with the top nine allergens.

But, they're definitely not cutting out taste.

We're talking about Bub's Bakery in Lower Manhattan.

Co-owner Jenn Saesue shares the story of how it all started.

Lazy Cake Cookies combine chocolate, peanut butter, and chewy texture in a no-bake treat designed for moments when dessert needs to happen without preheating anything. The mixture comes together quickly from pantry-friendly ingredients and forms rustic cookies with rich cocoa flavor in every bite. Peanut butter adds roasted saltiness and helps balance the sweetness, while the soft, chewy texture keeps them satisfying rather than brittle. Because there is no dough to roll or baking time to monitor, the recipe is approachable for children, beginners, and anyone whose oven is already occupied. The cookies look homemade in the best possible way and set into portions easy to pack, share, and quietly sample before anyone else arrives.

That Yellow on Your Broccoli Isn’t Just a Color Change and Here’s Why It's Important

Broccoli is one of those vegetables I used to grab without giving it much thought. If the bunch looked mostly green and the stalks seemed fine, into the cart it went. But there’s one little detail worth checking before you buy it, and it only takes a few seconds to spot.

This Herb Was Used for Back Pain Before Muscle Relaxers Existed

Devil's claw is a spiky-fruited plant from southern Africa, and its root has long been a traditional remedy for pain. It's also one of the few herbs tested in real trials for low back pain, which makes it worth knowing about if you deal with flare-ups. 😊

The Biscuits That Make You Wonder Why You Ever Bought the Canned Ones

A really good biscuit doesn’t need much explaining once you pull it apart and see that soft, steamy middle. These buttery biscuits bake up golden on top with tender layers inside, ready to soak up another swipe of melted butter the second they leave the oven. The edges have just enough structure to hold together, while the center stays delicate and soft enough to practically disappear with each bite. Add honey, jam, or sausage gravy and they become breakfast; set them beside fried chicken or a pot roast and suddenly they’re the thing everybody keeps reaching for. It’s simple, old-fashioned baking, but warm homemade biscuits have a way of making even an ordinary meal feel like somebody put in extra effort.

The Pork Chops I Make When Everyone’s Tired of Pork Chops

Pork chops have a reputation problem. Cook them the same old way and they can feel like the dinner you make because they were on sale—not because anyone was excited about them. Brown sugar changes that equation fast. As the chops cook, that sweetness mingles with the savory seasoning and pan juices, creating a glossy coating with caramelized edges that makes an ordinary package of pork look considerably more interesting. You get juicy meat, sweet-and-salty flavor, and those sticky browned bits around the edges that somehow disappear before the rest of the plate does.

The Thanksgiving Deviled Eggs Recipe I Have to Guard Until We Sit Down to Eat

I Made This Wendy's Copycat Chili, And It Was Even Better Than Takeout

I've been making this Wendy's-style chili since I was a newlywed in 1982. It's ground beef, kidney and pinto beans, stewed tomatoes, and a little cumin, simmered for an hour until it tastes like the drive-thru version. One pot makes 16 cups, and it costs a lot less than take-out.

The Cookie I’d Still Pick Over Anything From a Fancy Bakery

Peanut butter cookies never needed frosting, fillings, or a dozen trendy ingredients to earn a place on the cookie plate. Give me the old-fashioned kind with those familiar fork marks across the top, crisp golden edges, and a soft center that still has a little chew when you break one open. The peanut butter does all the work, filling the kitchen with that warm, nutty smell before the pan even leaves the oven. They’re simple in exactly the right way—the kind of cookie that brings back school lunches, after-school snacks, and the old cookie jar that somehow never stayed full for long.
