Lemon Curd Brioche Croissants




Croissants made with brioche dough, filled with homemade lemon curd.  So good, and an easy Sunday breakfast, as the dough needs prepped the night before.

South African Recipes

This is a long shot but I am hoping to talk to a group of year 6's (namely 35 x 11 year olds) about South African food. As part of this I'd like them to get involved in cooking some yummy treats! I've found a few recipes that involve making coconut ice (easy is vital) and biscuits / cookies with apricot jam and coconut.

Any ideas would be fantastic!
TIA

Apple crisp!


Okay, so I decided to make a pan of apple crisp, since I wanted to do something with this package of pre-sliced granny smith apples we bought this weekend. It was extremely easy, since I used a packaged topping mix.

I peeled and cored the apple slices that still had a core (Motts did a pretty good job for me) and mixed the topping with 5 tbsp of butter like the package told me, but I added two handfuls of chopped walnuts and a bit of allspice and nutmeg to the apples (just to make it taste less... packaged). Baked at 375 for 25-30 minutes and TA-DA!

I wish I had vanilla ice cream. ;_;

No-dairy No-soy No-death

Around holidays at work, people always bring in the most amazing baked treats for each other.  But for the last 4 years, there's one goofy kid who's always left out.  He can't have anything with dairy or soy in it, and no one yet has come across a recipe that wouldn't kill our little buddy.  So I call upon you, genius goody-makers of this cummunity, help me satisfy my coworker's allergy-ridden sweet tooth without causing his untimely death!

Much love and appreciation :]

Baking with Oranges?

I just received a whole bunch of not-so-fresh oranges and I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions for what I could bake with them. They're still good, just getting to the end of their freshness and I know I can't eat them. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Pecan Pie: SUCESS!

Hey! Thanks for for all the input I got on making a shortbread crust on a pecan pie. And here's my results... oops...


Well, that didn't last long. I used a slightly non-standard recipe (which was gutsy since I've NEVER baked one before, of any kind. I'll give my notes from doing this one, too, for the next time I make it or you might make it, so you have a little easier time than I did.
 
Recipe follows... )

Pineapple Upside-down Cake

I've always wanted to make this, and my fiance has mentioned that he hasn't had one in a long time, so for Halloween I decided to make it. I used a recipe from this one book I bought, called The Essential Baking Cookbook. Enjoy.

advice please!

My friend was in a horrible car accident months ago. She's still in the hospital and is very slowly trying to recover. It's not even guaranteed that she will survive this. Many fundraisers are being held to raise money for her hospital bills. I'm trying to stay involved with them raising as much as I can. The reason I'm posting this here is because in a couple weeks there will be a very large bake sale where all the proceeds will go towards her. I've never been involved in bake sales before so I was wondering what you guys think would be good sellers there. I'd like to keep the recipes as basic as possible but still want them to stand out. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! I'm not sure if it matters, but I'm fairly certain that over half of the buyers will be of the "elderly" crowd.

Thank you guys!

Baking with glucose?

Okay so this is a really weird question, but I have a whole bottle of liquid glucose sitting on my desk, rotting away because it was an impulse buy :P Any suggestions from all you pro-bakers as to what to do with it? 

Thanks much in advance!

vegan and not vegan!

biscotti preview
I've been trying to bake as much as possible recently, despite not having any time. I've also been trying out new recipes rather than the usual ones I know taste nice. In the last week I've made vegan biscotti and rosemary and orange biscuits. These are two things I wouldn't normally make unless I felt like doing something slightly different. Biscotti is mostly eggs in my mind and rosemary belongs with potatoes. Despite this, they both turned out rather nice. The biscotti isn't anything like biscotti made with eggs but that's too be expected and the rosemary and orange biscuits a somewhat unexpected combination (at least for me!) They're still nice though!

Get Well Soon.

Smells of bleach and piss
Starched blankets on moving beds.
Hospital's third floor.

{ haiku } Unit 36 - 38

Never doubt that I
Once loved you so dearly but
Now I just cannot. 

______________________

Let me disappear...
Vanish from this earth--your life;
Let me sink away.

______________________

Despite what I dream
I don't have the support
I need to make it.

And so I say now
Even if I can't sing, then
I shall dance instead.

Autumn Meditations ~ Three

Geese calling at dusk,
Under the frost rimmed moon.
I am missing you.
