I'm glad that the checkup went so well! I hope the physical therapy helps him regain full control of his mouth and cheeks.
I did what is my basic flat bread only with all white flour and 3/4 cup of cubed cheddar cheese mixed in. It wasn't as pretty with white cheddar and white flour as it would have been with white cheddar and whole wheat flour. It was tasty, possibly too tasty. I ate a little over half of it over the morning and ended with indigestion from too much cheese. When I was younger I could have eaten the whole thing in one sitting with no problems.
I'm glad the cat is litterbox trained, that make things a lot easier. Does the cat hide when you move around?
Do you think mixing cream cheese and maple syrup would make a good spread?
That all sounds very good especially the orange cinnamon swirl.
I hope everything goes well.
In an effort to have something to eat with strawberries, and having milk to use up, I made a fairly basic muffin batter and poured it into a 9 inch cast iron frying pan. All the traditional recipes for muffins say -- Do not over mix -- batter will be lumpy. Well I didn't overmix and had a fairly flat bread with some lumps of unmixed flour in the finished product. Next time I will mix it a little more anyway.
This was flatter than I expected, as I normally use a 8 inch frying pan for similar recipes but it tasted nicely by itself, and went wonderful with strawberries. I poured maple syrup on my slice -- my father thought that was overdoing the sugar -- but I ignored him as maple syrup is good on many things. There was a 1/2 cup of apricot jam baked in the muffins so the maple syrup wasn't necessary.I baked two batches of pancakes. I've done baked pancakes before but I was struck by the fine texture. I remember traditional pancakes as having bigger holes and a more fluffy and open crumb. What temperature should pancakes be baked at? fried at? for the best texture.
The pancakes were fine covered with strawberries and maple syrup. These were store brought strawberries and rather hard, they were vastly improved by the maple syrup. It seemed more traditional to have maple syrup and pancakes, then maple syrup and scones.I hope your husband recovers quickly. This must have been very scary especially the nausea and vertigo.
Congratulations on your success with the keto diet!! Did your wife find her blood sugar going down too?
The English muffins look good. My normal recipe makes 9, I use an oversize biscuit cutter for the 9th English muffin.
I made my perfect brownie recipe Sunday morning and it was great. I tried to do English Muffins to share with CocoMouse at the Md Sheep and Wool Festival, but I started that too late and didn't get that finished until the next day.
I did bring her some Apricot Muffin Sticks on Saturday. She gave me two muffins and a scone so I could taste her baking. My "Muffin Sticks" came from baking a double muffin recipe in a 9x13 pan and then cutting it in thirds the long way and across for 3/4 to 1 inch slices. This is a quick method of cooking for a crowd. I should have done a second batch Sunday instead of trying to make a yeast bread.
I really wanted BakerAunt's Buttermilk Maple Bread but didn't have the bread flour necessary.The Keto friendly cheesecake looks great. In a traditional cheesecake is most of the carbs found in the crust or in the filling?
I did a basic batch of cranberry scones -- white flour, white sugar, and sour cream. I found that the little 1 cup container of sour cream at the grocery stores is ideal for this. I can make two batches of scones without having to thrown out any for spoiling. Currently I am making half size scones instead of full size scones as that seems to work better.
I'm afraid that I eat Thin Mints like Riverside Len; the cookies are here today and gone tomorrow. I can keep a full box for awhile if its wrapped and in the freezer. An open box has a shelf life of hours if not minutes.
