Post Bake Babka

And now presenting my favourite baking project so far in 2018: Chocolate Babka! I know I’m not the only person who first learned about Babka from Seinfeld (“You can’t beat a babka!”), and was reintroduced to it when I started reading Smitten Kitchen ten years ago.

So I have actually made Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls before, but as if I would pass up a chance to try the Baked boys’ recipe! I don’t need that much of an excuse to make spiced, carby goodness, and I mixed these up last weekend, which was Thanksgiving up here in the great white north. This […]

Honey Yeast Rolls + Hot Turkey Sliders {Gastropost Mission #20: Bonus Mission}

October 9, 2012 Bread

The theme for our Gastropost Mission this week was FEAST which was timed to coincide with Thanksgiving weekend.

It always includes the following: turkey, stuffing, gravy, mashed potatoes, and […]

Whole Wheat Garlic Knots

May 3, 2012 Bread

Thought it was about time to tackle another baking project with yeast, after making those soft pretzels for the Superbowl back in February. I feel like I’m really getting the hang of the whole process, although I still need to start with a clean kitchen and a deep breath before beginning.
