Blueberry Muffinettes - Saturday, April 14th, 2012

Using the tiny muffin maker machine again, flax seed for eggs, canola oil, and coconut milk. These are fantastic. They came out better than the corn muffins. I also didn’t use the little liners. The muffins came out a little darker. They’re still very pale on top, but that doesn’t bother me. And when I [...]

Back to Baking - Sunday, April 1st, 2012

My mom gave me a cupcake maker. It makes the wee ones. It might seem silly to get something like that when I have an oven, but when the weather gets hot you don’t want to run the oven just for something like a few muffins. And the oven is sometimes unreliable — it heats [...]

What goes with cookies? MORE COOKIES. Also, coffee. - Tuesday, January 10th, 2012

I made another batch of the Citrus Glitters. This time I used the right kind of shortening. I also added a LOT more zest (one lime, lemon, and orange).

I had everything I needed… except, as it would turn out, canola oil. [...]

Tahini Lime Cookies (Vegan) - Saturday, December 31st, 2011

This recipe is also from Vegan Cookies Invade your Cookie Jar. To be honest, I wasn’t sure about these. Tahini always seems like sort of a non-flavor to me. Kitti was interested, though, and I really started baking things so there would be cookies and things for him, so I got the ingredients I’d need [...]

Wherein Baking is Attempted - Saturday, December 24th, 2011

If you don’t already know, Kitti (the partner-in-crime) is vegan. It used to mean that he wasn’t allowed to have any fun or eat any kind of junk food, but that’s boring. So I bought Vegan Cookies Invade Your Cookie Jar and made “Citrus Glitters”. I substituted coconut milk for almond milk because I really [...]
