Where are my baking enthusiasts in here?? Favorite recipes!

[SexySammy]

One thing I have always loved is making breads and different sweets from scratch! Almost time for my pumpkin bread season and I'm ready for it! But what are some of your favorite recipes?? Any and everything that involves an oven! Now that I've got my kitchen back I'm ecstatic about being able to cook from home again. No food allergies over here so feel free to list any and all of your favorite things to make/recipes!

Yes, I used to make my own bread back when I had my own house and kitchen. I would do it every winter. A lot of fun and tasty bread!

I have made good biscuits with this recipe. The catch is you must use a low protein wheat. In other words a soft wheat.
I can find White Lily in Austin. This is the only soft wheat i can find readily available in Austin.
Biscuits have endless possibilities, from savory to sweet depending on what is added to the basic recipe.

Virginia Willis' Buttermilk Biscuits
Virginia Willis' Buttermilk Biscuits
Prep Time: 10 min
Cook Time: 10 min
Total Time: 20 min
Yield: 12 biscuits

Ingredients Instructions
2 cups White Lily all-purpose, more for rolling out 250g
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon fine sea salt
4 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into bits and chilled 57g
3/4 to 1 cup buttermilk

1 of 1
1. Heat the oven to 500°F. In a bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt. Using a pastry blender
or two knives, cut butter into flour mixture until it resembles coarse meal. Pour in buttermilk and
mix until just barely combined. It will be a shaggy mass. (Alternatively, you can mix the dough in a
food processor: pulse to combine flour, baking powder, and salt. Add butter and pulse until it
resembles coarse meal. Pour in buttermilk through feed tube and pulse until just barely
combined.)

2. Turn the rough dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead lightly, using the heel of your hand
to compress and push dough away from you, then fold it back over itself. Give dough a small turn
and repeat four or five times.

3. Roll out the dough using a lightly floured rolling pin. Dough should be 1-inch thick. Using a 2 1/4-
inch round cutter dipped in flour, cut out rounds (press cutter straight down without twisting so
biscuits will rise evenly when baked).

4. Place biscuits on prepared sheet. (If biscuits are baked close together, sides will be tender. If
biscuits are baked farther apart, sides will be crisp).

5. Re-roll scraps once. Do not simply roll them into a ball; this will create a knot of gluten strands.
Instead, place the pieces one on top of the other in layers, then roll out dough and cut out more
rounds. Bake until golden brown, 8-10 minutes

Which store would I find it?? I do love me some biscuits! I love making the homemade cheddar drop biscuits like Red Lobster, absolutely devour them every single time! Lol

Most of the HEB stores have the self rising White Lily. Just remember not to add the baking powder. I think Brookshire Brothers has the regular White Lily, but it's in Lago Vista.
Happy baking!

I love to cook and bake but being single I don't do it as often as I used to.. no one to share all the goodies with. I've never been good at bread but baking sweets and making candy is fun especially around the holidays.

Some of my favorites to make:

Pot Roast
Stuffed Mushrooms
Beef Stew
Slow Cooked Beef & Brown Gravy
I love bake Carrot Cake
Blueberry Muffins
Cookies
Peanut Brittle
Toffee
Florentino
Cobbler

Thank you my dad taught me how to cook and we did it a lot before he passed away. Then I taught myself to bake and how to cook other stuff by experimenting and watching cooking shows.

I love to bake and am bumping this to post later…I have my Southern Grammy’s recipe box !! Her peanut butter cookies elicit raves every time that I make them , and they travel and ship well !!! I have sent them as a gift to family members in the military overseas.

I absolutely love cooking shoes. There's a British baking show, can't think of the name of it, but it was a baking competition and it was my absolute favorite.

[whiskeyforus]

"The Great British Baking Show" maybe?

If it was "The Great British Baking Show" you can see the episodes on Netflix.
