PĄCZKI - The Ultimate Polish Doughnuts

PĄCZKI - The Ultimate Polish Doughnuts

When I was really young, the only doughnuts I knew were called pączki.  Delicious yeasty, eggy fried dough, most often filled with plum butter, rose jam or custard (my personal fav being a toss up between plum butter and Advocat-flavoured custard) and covered in a sweet citrusy glaze.  Insert drool emoji!!  We moved to Canada when I was young so as I grew up, I was exposed to the more typical North American doughnuts that you get at Tim’s or Krispy Kreme…but pączki are hard to beat!  I thought Mother’s Day would be a perfect time to make pączki and...

Pretzel Bagels

Pretzel Bagels

These bagels are sooo good! They have a nice chew and a delicious salty top. However, they are time consuming so I would say this is more of a weekend baking project. Is it as practical as buying bagels at a bakery or grocery store? probably not… But anything I’ve ever made homemade I find usually tastes better and fresher. I can taste the difference and that there is less preservatives and that’s why I love trying to make things myself. If you have the time and want to give this a try you won’t be disappointed. They also go...
