Inspired by the Great British Baking Show.
During one of the episodes they had a German Schichttorte/Baumkuchen (layer cake/treecake) which we love and consume a lot when in Germany. inspired by the recipe we baked our own. Not bad for the first attempt but room for improvement.

I bake once a week on Saturday. Usually just some wholegrain buns for breakfast like these with spelt and emmer flour. Probably pretty close to bread that was baked in Europe 3000-4000 years ago

Agree, great idea for a thread. I would post but whatever we bake gets eaten way to quickly! 馃槵

There are so many fascinating threads on this forum.

I am inspired to make pasty/borek - perhaps this week.

Doing a lot of cooking but have not attempted bread. These pics give me reason to give it a shot.

The burning question, though, how do you all time your bakes???
