Took a couple of days off from making things this week after the marathon baking week last week. And of course work was busy at the end of the quarter so I wouldn’t have had time anyway. But I did decide to make these little gems, which seem to me to be rather spring-like, even though nothing about oatmeal or apricots says spring really. They are super easy to make, pretty hard to mess up and taste great even for breakfast (there is that oatmeal in the equation).
A family friend is from Sweden and I think that my first memories of having cardamom come from eating her Cardamom Cake when I was a child. I love cardamom, even more that I love cinnamon. These are a variation on a cinnamon roll, so I thought it would make a nice addition to the celebratory weekend breakfasts. I’m not Swedish, so I can’t really tell you how authentic these are, but I can tell you that they are very yummy and that is what counts in my book.
