Breakfast on the go with these *handy* Gravenstein Apple Turnovers. OK, they don’t have to be Gravenstein Apples, any baking apple will do, but I went apple pickin’ recently and picked this type. Convenient breakfast if you’re headed out of the house (not that I personally do that much these days, but you know… if real life were actually real life these days). Very easy and straight forward as it uses store-bought puff pastry.
I had intended to make rugulach. But then last night, just before I rolled up the rolls here, I found myself uninspired and frankly, a bit lazy. And I couldn’t find my ruler — and if you know me, I can’t cut a straight line if I tried. So, instead, I rolled the rugulach dough into logs, with the jam spread in the inside, and baked these Spiced Peach Swirl Cookies up this morning. Turned out it was a pretty nice compromise.
It wouldn’t be autumn in my world without plum cake. Pflaumenkuchen, Zwetschgenkuchen, Zwetschgendatschi … whatever you want to call it, it’s a very common autumn dessert or snack to coffee-time in southern Germany. This time, I made one a little different, with the addition of cardamom. I love cardamom too and the combination with the tart italian plums is fantastic.
