The final Three Recipes of 2021

Though a few of them have been up for a day or so already, I wanted to make sure you knew that the three remaining recipes for 2021 and the last of the holiday breads I promised—chocolate-sour cherry sourdough, Swedish pumpkin-spice buns, and za’atar babka—are now posted and ready to go. I’ve double- and triple-checked these recipe for errors or omissions, but three recipes is a lot to put out at once, so forgive me if I have missed anything, and please let me know ASAP so I can make corrections. You can find the details for each of them at the links below.

Happy holidays and see you in the new year (or at my baguette workshop on 12/28).
