Happy Easter 2021
Photo of the Month (March)
It’s paczki again! I’ve never seen paczki done this way and I love Boston cream pie. The idea for “Boston Creme Donuts” came from Erika last month, who said she made them for her husband’s birthday. I am so trying this! Thank you, Erika.
p.s. I’ve been super busy and have not posted any new recipes but I will soon. I’m working on a couple of new ones and just need time to fine tune them and take the photos.

BEV (from Canada) MADE MY PACZKI
“Hi Jenny – First time trying these. I used Active Dry Yeast but think I should have used the Rapid Rise because the dough didn’t puff up or increase in size so I was only able to make 7 instead of 12. Still delicious though, they baked up really nicely. Next time I’ll try the custard filling….and the time after that the Boson Creme variation… Thanks for a bright spot in our day. Bev (from Ontario, Canada)”
– I could eat these every single day. Thank you for this awesome photo! – jenny

CECIL MADE MY BRAIDED CINNAMON RAISIN BREAD
“Made it exactly as recipe stated yesterday. I will tent it a little next time. Today I made it again but I am going to put it in 2 small bread pans. One for me and one for the great grandkids I like to toast it in the mornings. I like having it rise only once.”
– Thank you for your photo. I love the idea of two smaller loaves, one for toasting and one for the glaze. Yumm! – jenny

150g poppy seeds
20g ground almonds

BARBARA MADE MY WHOLE WHEAT BREAD
“Hi Jenny – I’ve been looking for a decent whole wheat bread recipe for *decades* & so glad I found yours. Thought you’d like to see it with an egg wash glaze and (homemade) Everything But The Bagel seasoning on top – oh so good toasted! I do make the whole thing in my mixer with minimal hand kneading (I let it rest in the mixer for 5 minutes before turning out to give the flour a bit more time to hydrate). Slice it & freeze with wax paper between the slices & easy peasy to take out what’s needed. Thank you for this recipe! (and for the crusty roll recipe, too – always on hand in our freezer). Cheers, and happy baking!”
– Wow, that looks great! Thank you for starting off the month with all this detail, which is always appreciated by fellow bakers. – jenny
