In another uncharacteristic move on my part, I’m throwin some more p-butter your way. That’s 2 in a row, cookie monsters!
Clearly, this one has more than just peanut butter going on.

In an effort to make up for Carpe Cookie’s under representation of peanut butter, I took one for the team today.

I can’t explain or justify its credibility, all I know is that it is oddly compelling.

I love buckwheat.
And I love that Tabor Bread embraces the many, many flours other than (but also including) wheat that exist in the world and uses them – to great effect – on classics like oatmeal raisin, shortbread, etc. Not to mention a compelling array of beautiful yeasted breads.
