I've got dough sitting on the counter for KAF's No knead Harvest Fruit Bread. I will bake it in the morning
August 24, 2025 at 7:58 pm #47140On Sunday, I baked three loaves of Whole Wheat Oat Bran Bread. We will begin slicing one for lunch tomorrow, and the other two will go into the freezer.
August 25, 2025 at 10:05 am #47145I am annoyed with myself - I overproofed the bread. I checked at an hour and thought it looked good, but then thought maybe I should give it another ½ hour (recipe said 2 hours). I need to learn to trust myself more
August 25, 2025 at 1:55 pm #47148I'm making another batch of Banh Mi bread:
8 hot dog buns, 55 grams each
5 hard rolls, 55 grams each
3 Banh Mi rolls, 100 grams eachAugust 25, 2025 at 3:51 pm #47149Today's breads. One of the Banh Mi rolls popped open a bit because I didn't get the seam on the bottom.

August 25, 2025 at 6:12 pm #47154Yup, tasted great, too. They're always best the first day.
August 25, 2025 at 7:06 pm #47158I am about to bake Whole Wheat Sourdough Cheese Crackers on Monday evening. I had planned to bake them in the late afternoon, but we had a power outage for about an hour due to a gas leak in town which required the electricity be turned off. It takes about an hour and a half to do my four trays of crackers, and I did not want dinner to be late, so I bumped them until after dinner.
August 25, 2025 at 10:14 pm #47161The last two batches of the Banh Mi rolls that I made were the original formula, I think the next one will have a total of perhaps 15% rye and whole wheat flour in the dough, just to see how that affects things.
August 26, 2025 at 6:58 pm #47168On Tuesday, I baked a Braided Apple Filling loaf. I used my cinnamon roll dough and filling that I froze nearly two years ago. I had a lot of filling and enough was left over that I used the dough that I cut off at the corners to make a mini-braided loaf. I have a baking mat that I bought from King Arthur that has the instructions on how to do a filled bread (also on how to do a six-strand braided bread), but I also looked at the Braided Lemon Bread recipe that they have. I baked the loaves at 350 F, which works better for an oil based rather than a butter based filled loaf. The little loaf was done in about 20 minutes. The larger loaf, toward the back of the oven was done after 25 minutes. I cut the little one in half while it was still warm and had it for tea, leaving the other half for Scott when he got back from the woods to have with his tea. We also each had a slice for dessert. I am pleased that the filling, made with regular Clear Jel held up over the two years. I still have another, larger container of filling to use in sweet rolls.

August 27, 2025 at 7:51 pm #47183Everyone's baking looks great. I've made another batch of Taiwanese Breakfast Bao. I've increased the salt to 1/2 teaspoon, and the baking powder to 1/2 teaspoon. I've mixed the dough and formed the bao on Sunday but didn't steam it till Monday morning. It turned out very well even with being slightly over proofed. I've looked at other recipes and think that increasing salt and baking power is a good idea or at least harmless.
August 28, 2025 at 12:36 pm #47187I'm making more Banh Mi hard rolls today, about 55 grams per roll, with about 7% medium rye flour and 7% whole wheat flour in the mix.
August 29, 2025 at 1:01 pm #47190I baked the roll of peanut butter cookies I made last week for poker ♥️ tonight and made a sour cream pound cake for my friends .
