Baking With the Byrdens!



Rita received The Unofficial Harry Potter Cookbook for Christmas from her Aunt Cece - thanks!  She has been begging to make something out of it ever since the wrapping paper hit the floor.  We settled on Cinnamon Pull-Apart Breakfast Rolls.  There is a reference to the rolls in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, Chapter 16, if you are interested!  I was very impressed with how well these turned out.  Delicious!
Hugh & Rita patiently waiting...
Todd has been wanting to make bagels for a few months now.  As you can imagine, it is really hard to get a good bagel in Dusseldorf.  He found a recipe & went to work.  There were a few problems (like starting too early so the dough kept rising) & they weren't pretty but very very tasty!  Can't wait for the next batch.
