Beginner's Fresh Milled Bread Dough
A beginner-friendly fresh milled bread dough with increased hydration and a no-wait yudane method for soft, sliceable whole grain bread.
Crescent Roll Dough
This easily replaces the store bought version and ups it whole grains and foodie freshness. Makes 3 "tubes" of crescent dough or 24 crescent rolls.
Cupcakes
The difference is not in the ingredients, but the DIRECTIONS (also known as the METHOD). We use the creaming method to make cupcakes, so these instructions will be shown even though the PDF includes instructions for BOTH cupcakes and muffins.
Italian Bread
Makes: 1 loaf / 16 slices Prep Time: 1 hour 55 minutes (mostly inactive) Bake Time: 50 minutes Total Time: 2 hours 45 minutes
Muffins
The ingredients are the SAME as cupcakes, but we use the muffin method. The included PDF recipe base is for both cupcakes and muffins.
Pancakes
Light, fluffy pancakes with little wasted time - these are sure to please.
Pasta by Hand
This recipe base is for pasta mixed and rolled by hand or with a roller and cutter machine, but it is too wet for an extruder, so don't try that or you'll regret it.
Pasta Extruded
This type of pasta is different from pasta by hand. We cover the starting ingredients, and instructions on how to test the dough and tweak it so it performs well in your extruder.
Roux
A roux is a mixture of fat and starch. You can use any fat, and any starch. It is made by cooking the protein out of the starch, which mixes with the fat to thicken sauces. Since we are cooking (or denaturing) the protein in the flour, using your SOFT grains will give you a roux in a faster time but any grain milled into flour will do.
Sourdough Italian Bread
This is my italian bread base converted for sourdough. I've made it with both liquid starter and stiff starter and they both turned out wonderful.
Waffles
Light, fluffy waffles with a crispy outside - these are excellent frozen for quick toaster wins.
Whole Food Plant Based Drop Cookies
This cookie base is whole food, plant based, and uses fresh milled sourdough to incorporate the whole food sweetener with the whole food fat.
