This fish is very impressive and easier to prepare than you can imagine. Because isn’t that what you expect from BCP?

Ready for Baking? Make and Freeze This Apple Crumb Galette
The crumbs are the perfect addition to this apple version of our popular galette. One of the first recipes ever published here on BCP was this fruit galette. In the past I’ve only made this recipe using plums. I would begin making them midsummer and freeze a few raw to be baked during the fall….

It’s super easy to prepare, looks great, and everyone loves.

The 9×13 Life: Marble Cake
It typically uses a mixer and lots of bowls. It’s a marble cake. But not anymore. This marble cake is the easiest (and really delicious) version you’ve ever made. Everyone loves a good, fluffy marble cake. Preferably with a nice crust. A bit wet, but not too wet. You know what we mean here. But…

You can prep it in minutes, and the whole family will be full and happy (especially if they’re the type that typically needs their fleishigs).
