General Baking Discussion Looking for a good cookbook

• Upvotes

While I enjoy online recipes, I can be old fashioned at times and just want a book. So I'm on the lookout for a recipe book that is for desserts. For specifics, I'm not certain. The only specifically dessert themed book I own is the Martha Stewart Fruit Desserts one. Any suggestions?

Here I am just wanting to lose weight and stick to my diet, but all yall's tasty looking baked goods keep popping up in my 'recommended' feed and DAMN THEY ALL LOOK GOOD!

Completely forced me against my will to bake something with whatever I had in the pantry. Ended up with literally just enough eggs, flour and sugar for a tea cake which I threw in some sultanas and cinnamon for funsies.

Yes.... I ate half of it right out of the oven...

Can someone explain what the hell happened to my apple crisp, I pretty much followed the recipe to a T. The only thing I changed was maybe the type of apple, I used the Jonagold’s. But ugh I’m just upset I spent at least 1.5-2 hours on this 🄲

Here’s the recipe I followed: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=mkmCeXb-FNE

Baking Advice Needed Cheesy hashbrown biscuits help please

3 Upvotes

I recently went to a local bagel shop and on the menu they had cheesy hashbrown bagels, but they only had it on sundays I went on a Tuesday, and unfortunately I work Sundays šŸ˜” so I thought I could make them myself but thought openly stealing someone’s recipe was cowardly so I thought to change it to biscuits I have a good biscuit recipe and can find as good cheesy hashbrown recipe but my real question is would I have to add more flour or butter and milk to the dough to account for adding the cheesy hashbrowns? And how much hashbrown should I mix in too assuming a non doubles recipe calls for 2 cups flour thank you in advance!

Baking Advice Needed Instant yeast and sourdough difference?

2 Upvotes

I’ve been battling with myself if I should just stop growing my sourdough starter and continue using instant yeast.

Hear me out though.

It’s just me and my husband eating all pastries and bread that I’m baking and he doesn’t love the sourdough.

Now I know sourdough is gut healthy, right? The only thing is everything I’m baking with it either tastes bad or epic fail, eg. pizza, biscuits, bread, pancake

Do you think it’s still worth it and I just try out more recipes?

Baking Advice Needed Prepping butter and scones?

Thumbnail

3 Upvotes

Hi. What is the easiest way to prep butter for scones? I'm curious if incorporating frozen butter that was already been grated in the food processor would change the scones at all? Will it incorporate as well as freshly grated butter that was refrigerated and will the texture after baked be the same? If it's fine I am thinking of grating a lot of butter and portioning it to freeze so its ready when im making scones.

Additionally, if I wanted to pre make scones, would it be fine to freeze the scone discs and then take them out to bake immediately? or will that drastically change the quality/taste/texture/etc.

Baking Advice Needed How to make bread not sink in the middle

1 Upvotes

I’ve started baking bread recently (my favorite is a recipe that uses applesauce, chocolate chips, and a cinnamon glaze!). No matter what I do, the bread always comes out of the oven with a sunken middle. The edges usually hold firm, but there’s a rectangular/oval portion of the middle that just caves in. What am I doing wrong?

Seeking Recipe Looking for a Christmas cookie recipe with odd ingredients

8 Upvotes

Hi. I have been trying to find this cookie recipe and I am really hoping that someone remembers their grandma making them. They are basically sugar cookies, but they are made with lard and have banana, orange and vanilla extract - along with another extract that I cannot remember. It sounds so odd, I know, but it works somehow and they taste really good. The cookies come out dry and hard and are stored in the tin with slices of white bread for a few days until they soften and are chewy. If anyone remembers seeing a cookie recipe with these strange extracts, please let me know. Thanks so much!

General Baking Discussion Homemade pumpkin purĆ©e — Pink Doll vs Rouge Vif d’Étampes

17 Upvotes

I know this is potentially a niche post, but if anyone is looking to roast their own pumpkin and make purĆ©e from scratch, maybe this’ll give some insight!

A couple weeks ago, while doing my grocery pick up order, I threw in a Pink Doll pumpkin just for the heck of it. It was $5 for a 17 pound pumpkin and after some quick research, saw it was ideal for baking purposes. I had never roasted a pumpkin before so I didn’t really know what to expect but the process was pretty straight forward and ended up being quite worth it! I think it came out to about ten pounds of pumpkin purĆ©e, so naturally I was putting pumpkin in everything and made all sorts of baked goods, coffee syrups, soups and risotto.

My last grocery order, I again threw in a pumpkin, but even though I specified a Pink Doll, I received a Rouge Vif d’Étampes. When I got home, I did a quick search and learned it’s an old French heirloom variety and also great for baking. No big, I thought.
Well, today I roasted and purƩed it and, despite it being roughly the same size as the Pink Doll, albeit it only weighed about 9 pounds, I only ended up with about 3 pounds of purƩe :/ I figured it would be much less due to how much lighter the pumpkin was, how watery it was and how much liquid came out after the first roast, but I was hoping it at least tasted the same.

It does not. It’s still good! But nowhere near as dense, silky smooth, sweet, or concentrated as the Pink Doll.

It wasn’t a lot of effort so I’m still glad I bought it, but if I do get another pumpkin, I will be making sure it’s a Pink Doll.

TL;DR — Pink Dolls are better pumpkins than a Rouge Vif d’Étampes and considerably better bang for your buck

Baking Advice Needed Better to use rice krispies or cornflakes in cookies?

1 Upvotes

Hello, I was wondering which stays crunchier over time when baked in a cookie, rice crispies or cornflakes? This may seem like a dumb question but genuinely need to know which holds up in terms of crunchiness and taste. Need to bake a cookie that can last a couple of days before gifting since I won't have access to an oven between baking and the person eating them!
