Ep 91: Just Peachy

It's the second week of Sensational Stone Fruit month, but Stefin's thinking about the luscious cinnamon rolls she and her family enjoyed while visiting the Skookumchuck Bakery on British Columbia, Canada's beautiful Sunshine Coast this summer. Thoughts quickly turn toward pie with the duo's review of Smitten Kitchen's Classic Peach Pie. Both hosts were happy to find success with their old nemesis, blanching, but who is filing this recipe under TNT ("tried 'n' true") and who's wishing there'd been a little more pizaaz in the filling?

Next up, the hosts intro an intriguing hybrid -- this week's bake along is Waitrose's Traybaked Berry (Plum) Meringue -- billowing clouds of egg (or aquafaba) meringue top a cobber/crisp-type fruit filling. Looking for a unique twist on a late-summer favorite? Bake along, and posts your pictures to our Facebook community!

Finally, speaking of hybrids, Andrea leads a Language Lab/Gadget Garage mash up featuring the Brix Scale and Refractometer. You too can feel like a mad scientist as you find out just how sweet your stone fruit is!
