Fluffy pear cake

It's been a while since my last post, I know... But I am back with a super easy and delicious recipe that will be one of my new favorites for autumn! 

The base is a super quick batter, made with oil and plain yogurt, so you don't need to wait for your butter to soften. Then add some ripe pears on top and sprinkle some yummy cinnamon sugar on top (for some extra flavor!)

You could also make this recipe with different kinds of fruits such as apples or cherries (as a summer version) and there's also the possibility to transfer your batter into a cupcake tray and make muffins out of it.

As you see, we have loooaadss of options, so let's get baking!

I've been sharing my baking creations for more than five years on my Instagram Account @tamarasbakings . It all started with pictures but slowly, I transitioned into short-form videos, aka Reels. In the beginning, I made them very detailed and experimented with different settings in my home, various backdrops and camera angles, editing techniques, etc. but over time I created an effective way to film my Reels and now I am sharing multiple ones per month. Since I have the best followers in the world, I often get comments on how nice my editing is or how beautifully filmed my videos are. And I do pay close attention to the little details, like props and decor items, camera angles, and creating interest, so people genuinely want to watch my videos.

In case you've never heard of Skillshare before, it is an onlin...

Cinnamon Rolls - perfect for fall baking

When I think of fall baking and the cozy season, I immediately think about cinnamon rolls, as well. There's just something so comforting about a soft, fluffy, and sweet cinnamon roll together with a cup of your fav fall drink. So today, I am sharing my favorite cinnamon recipe with you. I've always been using this exact recipe and I can confidently say that my whole family and friends love it! The yeast dough - things to keep in mind The most important thing about a good and fluffy cinnamon roll is, of course, the yeast dough- but how can you ensure it gets fluffy and perfect? First of all, I always use fresh yeast. In my opinion, this gives you the best results. In order to make sure the yeast can do its job properly, the temperature of the milk (and butter mixture) is key! If your mixture is too hot or too cold, you won't get a good yeast dough, it won't rise and your cinnamon rolls will be dry and flat. I always think of a hot bathtub when I heat my milk.
