Bring on the soup!

The sourdough bread bowls turned out great! It was nice to be able to do some stretch and folds again instead of my weekly sandwich bread shaping. I switched up the recipe slightly by using 800g of fresh milled flour instead of 700g of bread flour and 100g of whole wheat flour as it was written. I also increased the water amount to 600g instead of 550g to account for the fresh milled flour. What a delight! Hubby made a creamy chicken soup to go in these bread bowls. It was great.

Can I just say how tasty the sourdough cinnamon donut bread is? I hope we can actually save some for the upcoming week’s breakfasts…ha ha ha. It’s so good I can’t keep the kids from eating it! Safe to say it was a success. I used 180g of fresh milled flour and increased the milk from 1/2 cup to 3/4 cup to account for the fresh milled flour. I did not add the glaze to this bread, partly to save my T1D kiddo some carbs, but mainly because the bread was already sweet enough. No glaze needed!

I have to admit, I have made the lemon yogurt pancakes on several occasions and they are AMAZING! So fluffy and tasty. The original recipe calls for 85g of AP flour. I have increased this to 90g of soft white wheat flour. Then, instead of 115g of plain yogurt, I increased it to 125g. The lemon juice really adds depth to this recipe. It’s a must try!

I have a problem…I like to buy tools to make my life easier. In sticking with this trend, I purchased a bread proofing box. I know, I know, I just bought this dough mixer with ferment function. But, with this proofing box I can prepare two different recipes now instead of waiting for one to proof and then start the next recipe. It’s all about efficiency. Keep it moving 🙂

Now, on to the best part of my bake day…the cookie of the week. This week’s cookie was a copycat Crumbl peanut butter cup cookie. I really enjoyed making these. I have a cookie exchange coming up at work and these are going to be perfect! Can’t wait for everyone to try them.
