I was fresh out of white and red potatoes, so this beauty donned the breakfast plate this week - cauliflower/pea and dandelion frittata.
Experiment #2 with the bundt bread: I made this eggless bundt bread (again) using my homemade yogurt (vs. buttermilk). However, I didn't see my notes, and forgot to add the cinnamon/nutmeg. It was still good, and the texture good. I used two cups whole wheat einkorn and one (white organic) all-purpose. I plan on experimenting one more time this week.
I made a new recipe - Almond-Oat bars. These were very good (and very healthy), but a mess to make and bake. As you form the rectangle on the pan to bake them, you have to either oil hands or wet your hands (and even so, it was a mess). The ones on the outside basically crumbled apart. The family ate all of them, bits and pieces included, but the recipe went into the trash. I'll stick with my granola bar recipes for now. I'm glad I baked them, because it made me realize I could develop my own recipe down the road.
I froze my peaches last summer, and with extra "hands on deck"(school closed due to very heavy fog), I canned. New in the pantry - peach bourbon jam. Can't wait to taste it. I have to tell you though. I cheated. Ball has a recipe online for this (also in the canning book I have), but you make it over the stove and you get 6 jars (using a lot of sugar). I made it in my jam maker, making it reduced sugar, adding less of the candied ginger and 1 ounce of bourbon. I'll update you when we taste it.
