Let's just say there may have been a casualty or two and only one baker successfully makes baklava. On the plus side, when Amber goes rogue on her ingredients, Erin helps her pivot into something that's 85% edible. Whether you love baklava or just need a good laugh, this episode checks all the boxes!2023-01-311h 52Baking It EasyEpisode 5: Baking on a Prayer (Macaron Edition)A lot of lessons learned in this one!
