Baking giant King Arthur has named their 2018 Recipe of the Year - a whole grain banana bread that we're sure Preheaters would love to try. Both our hosts rave about the London Fog Shortbread from Oleanerandpalm.com which is a sophisticated cookie that uses loose Earl Grey tea leaves and produced a crisp and buttery shortbread with a unique flavor. This week's bake along is a Contest Winning Moist Chocolate Cake from Taste of Home. It's a one bowl recipe in a bundt that should be a quick and delicious cake, and Andrea is very excited about the coffee component! Stefin reported in for the Globetrotting Gourmet about her recent trip to Morocco where the highlight of the trip was being able to experience the community oven and have an expert baker bake your items while you hang out, chat, and drink your mint tea. Andrea also traveled to a slightly less exotic (but no less beautiful) locale and visited Victoria, British Columbia.

Bake along with Stefin and Andrea in their baking Facebook group, Preheated. You can find links to recipes on their baking website, www.preheatedpodcast.com. Join the fun!
