Friends, hello! A few weeks ago, after I shared my struggles with this cornmeal galette dough recipe, a few of you, incredibly, made it anyway and shared your experience in the comments and via email. Inspired by your positive notes, I revisited the recipe, and after a few trials, I found the solution ultimately to be simple: decrease the cornmeal and mix the dough slightly more aggressively. I made a video, which I think is the best teacher for these sorts of recipes, and I updated the post: In sum, I use the same technique with this dough as I use with my all-butter pie dough recipe, which is to pulse the dough just until it reaches a crumbly consistency: ... then twist the bundle into a beggar's purse until the crumbles form a disc: I had intended to video the whole tomato galette process, but having made so many in the past few weeks, I needed a change. With a fall chill in the air, I used the dough to make this apple galette, and oh my word, FRIENDS! It's so good. It's been ages since I tasted that union of buttery, flaky pastry, creamy almond frangipane, and sweet-tart fresh fruit. What's fun about this recipe is that you use the food processor to make the dough, then, without rinsing it, you use it to make the frangipane, and before you know it, the galette is ready to be flung into your oven. Serve it with vanilla ice cream, freshly whipped cream, or nothing at all β it's delicious on its own. I'm wishing you all a wonderful weekend. If you have one last recipe on your summer bucket list to mark complete, may it be this one. It's such a good one π π½π§πΏ But if you've moved on to fall, I understand that, too.
PS: Please don't make summer end! And if you haven't made these green beans, now's the time. Very easy and delicious. Review of the Week

I love how quickly it came together on a busy Monday night. I made the slow cooker black beans on Sunday and quickly prepped the homemade enchilada sauce on Monday during a lunch break. Then, at dinner time, all I had to do was assemble and bake. I highly recommend making the homemade enchilada sauce too β it took the enchiladas to the next level.

Friends, at last, the morning buns are here βοΈβοΈβοΈ This week, I ran two experiments. Up first: assembling the pan of buns, storing them in the fridge, and baking them in the morning. The result? Success! β You do still have to remove the pan from the fridge at least 3 hours before you plan to serve them to allow them to fully proof and bake, but you could always remove the pan, then return to bed. Second, I sped up the timeline: On Thursday night, I mixed the dough, chilled it for 1 hour,...
Friends, good morning. It's shaping up to be a beautiful sunny Saturday, and I am so looking forward to it. βοΈ Let's get down to business. This week, the morning bun experiments continued, but before I post the recipe, I need to make one more batch, mostly to figure out how to actually make the buns so they emerge in the morning. I don't think it will be hard, but right now, they may as well be called evening buns. This week, I also finally updated this simple sourdough bread recipe, which...

I'm dreading the season's end. This week, I made progress on both the morning buns (above) and the chocolate croissants (below) using this cheater's croissant dough recipe. The overall feedback from the family on the chocolate croissants? Too much...
