This is one of my favorite challenges. Bake something that is a regional specialty, or inspired by a regional specialty. Maybe you’re from Turkey, so this is the week you whip up a pistachio baklava. Or maybe you’re from Georgia (the US state) that’s well known for peaches, so you bake a peach cobbler.
Or maybe, like me, you solicit your local subreddit for ideas, and discover a cherished favorite from a local bakery.
Let us see what your region is well known for, and share its story with us!
I just pulled some zucchini bread (mare with zucchini from a co-worker’s garden) which i think is fitting for the Midwest. My buckeye bunst cake was also very fitting for Ohio, but i think I can do better. I’m gonna get some pictures of the zucchini bread just in case, but i think i can pull off something good here.
