Alternate title– We bake a lot.
March has been BUSY. Every weekend has been spent outside working on a project. We have picked up more fast food than I’d ever care to admit. Last weekend, I’d had enough and determined to make all of our meals despite working outside because I was sick of wasting money. I never took pictures– honestly I often don’t get pictures of dinner dishes because we are all hungry. But, I’ll try to do better since it’s fun to share. Sunday’s dinner was the Chicken Piccata from the Come and Get It cookbook. So good.
Chloe made this cake all by herself. I was actually outside with Scott while she made it. I told her to come get me if she needed help with anything. I’ve baked with her for years and trusted her ability to be safe, and I’m so proud of her. It was also delicious!
I had been dying to make bagels. I topped half with everything but the bagel seasoning and half with cinnamon and sugar. They aren’t my favorite, but they were pretty good for a first try.
This was Harper’s request. We love to make braided bread. She made it with chocolate chips inside and sprinkles on top. Can you tell we like sprinkles?
Chloe made these muffins by herself also. She is really doing a great job. I also just noticed her toothpick tester in the picture. haha!
MY sourdough is going really well! It’s doubling in size after about 4 hours. In another week, I should be able to bake bread with it! Would anyone like me to share how I made my starter?
The sourdough starter isn’t quite ready to raise a loaf of bread yet, but I was able to make a batch of herb crackers. They are pretty good. I ate some with raw cheddar, and YUM.
This was my favorite new recipe of the month! Have you ever made a dutch baby? It was so cool to watch rise. You start with such a small amount of batter, and it just grows and grows. We topped ours with a bit of powdered sugar (more for looks) and maple syrup. It was so yummy.
