today's recipe experiments
Oct. 29th, 2007 03:57 pmOatmeal bread with cooked oatmeal
Both boys asked for oatmeal this morning and neither of them ate it. Before I threw it out it occurred to me that it must be possible to turn this wreck into oatmeal bread. This turns out to be a recipe adapted from Beard on Bread, a book which I, unaccountably, do not own. It's very easy and turns out to make two very nice loaves of bread, even using instant oatmeal and whole wheat flour (despite the poster's insistence on regular oats and bread flour).
Peanut butter dog biscuits
These are still in the oven so my chief taster has not had a chance to try them yet (despite her deep soulful eyes looking up at me as I mix), but they smelled so good while I was rolling them out that I was tempted to eat some of the dough myself, chicken broth and all.
