Mmmm! It’s calling out my name!
It looks like the texture is softer than what I expected.

Tender but not too soft or fluffy.

The last of the Italian plums from the freezer. No more plum tortes until fall.
For anyone who’s been following our attempts to grow Italian plums: our current tree is now in it’s 3rd spring in residency, meaning the tree itself is 4-5 years old. It’s budding, but I can’t yet tell whether these are leaves budding, or actual blossoms. I should know in a week or two whether we stand a chance of finally getting our own plums this year. The neighbor’s tree - just over the fence - should give a boost to the pollination if it turns out to be flowers. Fingers crossed…

Amazing, have never made this with frozen plums !
It works really well. I thaw them on the counter just while I’m putting together the batter, but no longer.

Started to do a lot of baking during Covid and I love my sourdough bread and homemade bagels. Almost 3 weeks ago I broke my wrist on my right hand and didn’t think I would be able to continue baking but
it’s amazing what you can do with your left hand! Made bagels today and sourdough with walnuts and olives last week. Still need help with the slicing though.

Both of those would be amazing if you made them two-handed but with one hand??? Very impressed.

I got this cookbook https://www.amazon.ca/Sweet-Tooth-Desserts-Save-Baking-ebook/dp/B0CQJJ2FTN# from the library and tried one of the recipes: Nutella swirled chocolate chip blondies. Very easy recipe, but I actually think that it could have used a bit less nutella ( words I never thought that I’d write)… 1/3 c instead of 1/2. I didn’t get any feedback at work but it was gone quickly.

Thanks, not sure if that was a question but I kneaded and let dough rise in proofing setting on my oven for 60-90 minutes then shape and boil for a minute on each side. Use good old Trader Joe’s everything bagel condiments with egg wash and then bake for 20 minutes.
Thanks! It’s amazing what you can do when you’re motivated.

I’m quite tempted to buy it… even though I am on a strict cookbook diet!

I probably wouldn’t have purchased it myself, but I got it as a gift, and I love it!

I made Mark Bittman’s Lemon Poppy Bread and topped with Lemon Glaze (both from How to Bake Everything) over the weekend because I was bored. Easy enough to do. I didn’t try it but a neighbor had a slice and I brought the rest into work on Monday to leave in the faculty room. I’m still getting random coworkers coming up to say it was delicious.

Variations on a theme…pistachio frangipane soft style cake with raspberries and a little sour cream.
