When in doubt, there is always a new type of crumble bars to try! This time, I went with a great combination of autumn flavors: figs and ginger. For those who don’t know, I absolutely love figs. I even have a Pinterest Board called “Getting Figgy with it”. 🙂 Anyway, figs and ginger, a buttery vanilla base and a few walnuts to top it off. Super yummy.

This week in Sourdough experiments, I went with a Honey Porter Miche, aka Honig Dunkel Bier Mischbrot, aka a Honey Porter Rye and Whole Wheat Loaf. It’s a little darker, thicker and heavier than some of my other breads, but intentionally so. And it has a great flavor. The porter is a little bitter, the honey sweet and the combination is just right for a hearty slice with raclette cheese or with a warm soup as autumn rolls in. This will have to stay on the rotation, I think.
Completely out of character for my baking and cooking style, but staying on the Halloween and ghoulish eyeball theme, here we have some absolutely delicious Spicy Hot Honey Almond Buckeyes, all decked out for the holiday. Despite being technicolor and ghoulish, they taste really cool — kicked up almond butter with cayenne and honey. And besides, freaking the kids out by biting into an eyeball has to be fun, no?
