๐Ÿ“๐Ÿค๐Ÿซ What to Bake in July!


Hey, Reader!

It finally feels like summer here in the PNW, with long sunny days & rising temps. Lately I've been reaching for fresh summer fruit (especially peaches, blueberries, and cherries) along with a couple German staples and sweet snacks that are easy enough to make with kids at home during summer break.

So for our Bake Club, I gathered 10 recipes I'll be baking on repeat all July, and I hope you have them a try too!

Guten Appetit!
