Fall baking is here 🤤🍏 Apple Tart from Dessert Person. My rough puff could have been puffier but this was delicious all the same!

Great cookbook whether you are a novice or old hand. Saffitz arranges recipes by difficulty so as to help newbies develop skills and confidence. Lots of helpful info for each recipe (length, difficulty; ingredients & equipment). Clear directions and beautiful pics. You can even watch Saffitz prepare some on her YouTube channel. https://cannonballread.com/2022/08/dessert-person-recipes-and-guidance-for-bakin...

I totally forgot I had pre-ordered this and it showed up this week! Excited to try some of the cookies for the holidays but the other stuff looks way too advanced for my baking skills 🍪
