Putting the Feelers Out for a Passover/Easter Community Bake

I think it's time for another community bake. It can be hosted by me but i'm happy if anyone else would like to take the reigns. I'm thinking that because Passover and Easter coincide with each other we can combine it. One could either bake matzos or a grain free cake for the Passover Bake. Or one could bake an Easter bread/cake. Or one of each! 

Good idea? And if you're interested in hosting it give me a shout.

There are a bunch of Easter breads from different countries that I keep meaning to get around to, including:

Mazanec (I think Benny made this a while back): https://food52.com/blog/27239-how-to-make-naturally-leavened-mazanec

Choreg: https://www.seriouseats.com/choreg-armenian-easter-bread

I'm not too familiar with Easter breads so all ideas are very much welcomed. Glad you're on board. I'll leave this post open for a few days to see the response and if all goes well i'll try and put a community bake together by the end of next week.

I'll probably be baking Tsoureki for the Greek Easter anyway, so happy to share the results in the CB :) https://akispetretzikis.com/en/recipe/3923/politiko-tsoyreki
