Made Claire Saffitz's Kabocha Turmeric Tea Cake from *Dessert Person*.

There are these really tasty cumin cookies that you can get at Indian markets in the US and, occasionally, a Sikh-owned truck stop with a small Indian foods section. (Speaking from experience!)

The flavor of this bread reminds me of those cookies! Turmeric, garam masala, kabocha, and sugar, dotted with pumpkin seeds. Sort of perfect, really.

Great flavor, maybe ate a little dry. I thought about adding a bit of moisture to the squash mash next time, since the only real moisture in the bread was 2 eggs, some maple syrup, and some vanilla extract.

Happy Thanksgiving, Mastodon friends!

We are having our celebration tomorrow evening, when our whole family can be together here in the desert.

Mostly got to relax and do #foodprep for Christmas Day.

Tried to make #clairesaffitz maple walnut #stickyBuns but there are only two of us so I did 1/4 recipe, and pretty sure I effed it up 😫 but won’t know for sure until tomorrow. The good news is we have a mountain of #cookies that we can eat instead 🤷🏻‍♀️🍪
