It’s almost time for “Challahween!” We’re getting ready by baking the cutest challah ghosts, broomsticks and pumpkins too! These shapes are just so easy to make with frozen bread dough! These are the perfect little challahs for the fall season, and we show you how to make all three!
Celebrate pumpkin season (and Shabbat) with fresh baked pumpkin challah rolls. These cuties are so simple to make with frozen bread dough, and they can also be dressed-up for “challah-ween” with icing, sprinkles and candy eyes. This is a wonderful family activity for fall. So let’s go bake and dress-up pumpkin challah rolls!
We recently baked a “patch” of gourd and pumpkin cookies to celebrate fall! They were so fun and festive, we decided to also use the cookies for pumpkin (and gourd) patch cupcakes! This is a simple (but oh so cute) activity with store bought cupcakes, dried fruit and nuts! It’s also a wonderful activity for littles to help with too. Come visit our pumpkin patch and make some fall cupcakes us!
We’re sharing our fall harvest with family and friends at a Sukkot dessert. The sukkah is meant to be an open tent, and extending hospitality and sharing something delicious with people you love is what makes this holiday and the fall season so special. Come take a look!
We’re welcoming fall (and Sukkot) with a harvest of gourd cookies! The funny bumpy gourd reminds us that extending hospitality to friends and strangers is beautiful Jewish custom during this time of year. These cookies are shaped with a buttery dough and painted with a sugar glaze. Come bake a harvest with us!
Sukkot celebrates the fall harvest. It is the longest and happiest festival of the Jewish year! It began in ancient Israel, when most Jewish people were farmers.
