For this episode, I baked macaroons, a cookie that is many times associated with Passover. While my version cannot be enjoyed during Passover since it does contain a tiny bit of flour, my macaroons are tasty nonetheless.

Autumny Baked Goods
Usually I like to bring a gift to whomever I’m going to visit. Since autumn is upon us, I wanted bake something for Erin and her housemates that would bring the season to mind. This moist bread that works as breakfast, a snack or dessert was well appreciated and gobbled up.
