Baking: This Week’s Main Activity. In Some (Most?) Homes.
Sometimes, when life slows down (like in the 9 days), baking is the perfect medicine. Baking is something we all tend to do these days, whether to pass time, to fill up that freezer, because it’s hot out and we want to stay away from the sun, or, because we need something yummy for breaking…

Fruit Pie, Fruit Galette, Fruit Tart.
These galettes are one of the easiest desserts I’ve ever made. Editor’s Note: We’ve since added an apple crumb version of this popular galette, and a dairy caramel apple galette!
