Hello May 2021! Its beginning to feel a lot like deja vu. Here we are back in lockdown 3.0. I've started baking again. I find it therapeutic and I'm glad the government decided to allow some outdoor physical activities. Walking G is a key role in keeping my sanity in check. So back to online classes for my 2-legged animals while we wait. Hope everyone is staying safe and keeping sane. This is a 2 part recipe that does require some prep in advance. I made the filling the day before and note to self, do not overfill the buns. I had a few bust open in the oven. Love the er "rustic" appearance.
