Hi bakers, and welcome to week 47! This week, the challenge is to bake something using a preserved ingredient, such as jarred fruits and jellies; pickles, kimchi, and sauerkraut; or wines and spirits. Here are some suggestions if you’re looking for inspiration, and feel free to add your own below!

Maple syrup and miso pear pie

Apple butter apple pie

Victoria sponge

Dill pickle bread

Chocolate sauerkraut cake

And speaking of preserved, if you want to take this week’s challenge even further, try making a traditional Christmas fruit cake, which both uses preserved Brandy and gets ‘preserved’ itself from now until Christmas!

As always, happy baking!

I'm going for the bonus challenge and am making a brandy aged fruit cake! My apartment smells like brandy now, but I'm incredibly excited for it!
