Making up a batch of Mindy Segal’s peanut butter and jelly thumbprints. Her recipe calls for making strawberry lambic jam which sounds heavenly but I have so much jam in my house. Did one tray with 3F Gueueze jam we picked up at the source in 2019 and one tray with orange marmalade we got from a grove in Florida we like to order oranges from.
I would have liked these a little more brown on the bottoms but the jam was running out. Pulled the marmalade ones earlier. This is a way fussier recipe than I usually make for Thumbprints but the end cookies are way better and worth the effort.
I was alerted by a Reddit post yesterday that there is an Italian bakery not too far from Burger Antics (or that’s how I justified it) that has gorgeous looking pepperoni bread. It’s just pepperoni in an Italian load but goddam does it tick that WV/Western PA pepperoni roll box that pizza puffs just do not. We just sliced it up with a little butter. I am in heaven.
My favorite local pastry shop is doing one of those bake for Ukraine fundraisers and made Hamantashen in lemon poppyseed, raspberry and Nutella. We just sampled the lemon poppyseed. Might need to pick up more. These are GREAT.

I made King Arthur’s tahini scallion rolls. They came out very nicely. I just need to work on my cutting and also a new rectangular pan. Circle was probably not the best choice.
Walnut and chocolate chip banana bread that I should have tented earlier but am drinking and not too bothered
Waiting for my favorite bakery to relocate to their new space, while Tom Petty’s The Waiting plays somewhere in the back of my brain:
I bought so many unnecessary things at Aldi today. When does anyone need 8-10 funnel cakes?

Sorry for partying.
I bought so many unnecessary things at Aldi today. When does anyone need 8-10 funnel cakes?
Is that a one time use container or can you throw it in the fridge and use the rest later?
I think we are going to vacuum seal and freeze them for future enjoyment just because the batter won’t stay good that long. That being said, the container is hard plastic and I am pretty sure funnel cake is just fried pancake batter so I will totally use the funnel more than once.
My wife made this cinnamon chocolate chip coffee cake yesterday and goddamn it is good. Took half to a beer share last night (eating half of this thing in one night would have been an impressive feat even for me).
i'm sure it paired nicely with a cinnamon chocolate coffee cake pastry stout.
I didn't have any pastry beverages...but it went great with the non-adjunct BA stouts.
Can it really be called a share if you don’t end up covered in adult sugar water? At least tell me there were no lagers involved.
Maple cruller from a newish bakery by me. The inside is very wet which gave it a more decadent texture. Sweet and lots of maple and lovely when dipped in the espresso. Top tier pastry.
