Lately, all I can think about is cake and baking. It occupies so many of my daily thoughts. If I broke down the waking hours in a typical weekday, it would look like this: 50% human rights thoughts; 30% cakes/cookies/baking; 20% other/Ethan/family/travel. I blame Winter and hibernation.
One of my favorite things to bake are these free-form galettes filled with whatever fruit I have at hand. It may not look pretty now, but after 30-40 minutes in the oven, it comes out, crust a golden brown, bubbling, oozing the alchemy of sugar and fruit juices. Incredible.
Cardamom peach is a new favorite.
That looks so good! Cardamom is such an underrated spice. I hear you on the winter baking. A couple of weeks ago I baked three days in a row: muffins, scones, cookies. Repeat.
