top five delicious baked goods.
[prompt]
1. The sourdough double rolls the local German bakery makes. Theyāre always fresh and crunchy on the outside but soft on the inside with just the right amount of tang to make me go insane. If gluten didnāt hate me I would eat them at least three times a week
2. Mandelhƶrnchen from the same bakery. I adore sweets made from almond flour and mandelhƶrnchen are like. the perfect almond cookie to me. not too sweet, chewy with a bit of a crunch, and with the perfect almond taste.
3. Thumbprint cookies with raspberry jam. Canāt go wrong with a solid shortbread and some raspberry jam. Unless you canāt have dairy eggs or gluten, in which case you longingly think about them twice a month
4. Challah! But specifically one made with a sweeter, denser enriched dough and a golden brown crust, much to the dismay of my father (who likes his challah tasting like a basic white loaf and almost dark enough to be burned)
5. banana/zucchini bread. do I need to say anything else
+ an extra #6, which is my momās parve pesach orange cake. she does it with almond flour and orange zest and then drowns it in fresh squeezed orange juice after and itās the perfect amount of sweet to have for breakfast before schul on the first and second days. last year she made a second one halfway through the week because it was gone so quickly
