This week I was back to baking. I started with Starbucks copycat pumpkin scones. I had leftover pumpkin from baked oatmeal, and these used up the leftovers beautifully. I liked these better than actual Starbucks scones, and might make them again. If I do make them again I’ll be adding crystalized ginger, as they could use a bit more oomph.
I tried a copycat recipe of Corner Bakery’s Sweet Crisps next. This one was a bit of work, as it involved baking a loaf of bread, cutting it into thin slices, then toasting it with butter and turbinado sugar. These were excellent on day one, but as leftovers they lost their crunch. I think I’ll try toasting them up in the oven before eating the leftovers.
We’re back to summer weather this week, so I’ll be off baking for a bit until it gets back to autumn temperatures.
Everything looks delish and I think the crystallized ginger would taste great. I’m sure if you toasted the crisps again, they will regain their crunch.

Try rolling the sweet crisps flat as pie dough after baking them back in the oven for 5 min. They are amazing like that and very crisp.
