A not entirely successful experiment. Had some passion fruit to use up so transformed them into a soufflé. Overcooked so a little grainy. You have to try these things! 📸 instagram.com/p/CNjw… via tweet.photo pic.twitter.com/5UHP…

Some of the #breadbabes from #breadchat have been Some of the #breadbabes from #breadchat have been a bit obsessed with muffins recently-  bread muffins that is. Having previously tried muffins baked on a griddle, these were baked in the oven. In the first photo. The two furthest away are 50:50 white and heritage wheat wholemeal sourdough, the front two are white yeasted dough.  Weighed at 90gr to fill my rings. Lovely open crumb for the sourdough version. Apart from a treat with Eggs Benedict  these are great toasted and eaten dripping with butter. Love experimenting, I now know which way to go! #englishmuffins #sourdoughmuffins #englishmuffin #realbread #breadexperiments #eggsbenedict #muddyspringbakes
Do you like the flavour of marzipan? Simnel cakes Do you like the flavour of marzipan? Simnel cakes are traditionally made at Easter. A light fruit cake with a layer of marzipan baked in the middle. Topped with more marzipan and balls, one for each disciple. These are my mini simnel cakes. Baked with a ball of marzipan in the middle then topped with another. Moist and delicious! #easterbaking #simnelcake #eastercake #eastertreats #muddyspringbreaks
If you could have seen me covered in chocolate wit If you could have seen me covered in chocolate with chocolate everywhere, but it was such fun! @paul_a_young ‘s Easter Egg masterclass for @learningwithexperts had me trying tempering vast amounts of chocolate and wrangling it into an Easter egg. It came out of the mould beautifully but I fell at the last hurdle as I had no gloves to stop fingermarks spoling the sheen. Husband seems happy though! #eastereggs #chocolatetempering #masterclass #chocolatier #80percentchocolate #caillebaultchocolate
Such a joy to make a sourdough loaf of bread with Such a joy to make a sourdough loaf of bread with wheat farmed not many miles from where I live and where it is milled. Lammas Fayre is milled from a unique blend of 150 heritage wheat varieties developed by Heritage Harvest. Stoneground by @shiptonmill it is very flavourful and gives a light crumb. One to try. Sales of the flour provide a donation to Heritage Grain Trust. #heritageflour #realbread #stonegroundflour #stoneground #sourdoughbread
Having just finished baking my last batch of hot c Having just finished baking my last batch of hot cross buns and delivered them to the neighbours, I thought rather than post a photo of them, I’d celebrate Easter with flowers. Here’s a wreath inspired by @bloomery_broadway ‘s wreath class at Christmas and a tulip display inspired by @phillippacraddock ‘s class for @telegraph . Hope your Easter Friday is a gloriously sunny as mine? Happy Easter! #tulips #easterwreath #floraldesign #easter2021 #easterflowers

I’ve been thinking a lot about past holidays and I’ve been thinking a lot about past holidays and of course the food discovered. Many moons ago we stayed at the wonderfully named Off Our Rockies B&B in Canmore, Canada. Imagine warm muffins for breakfast! I found the recipe the other day and here they are: Rhubarb Muffins. The rhubarb adds a lovely moistness and a subtle hit in each bite. Topped with cinnamon and pecans for added flavour. #muffins #breakfastmuffins #canmore #offourrockies #muddyspringbakes
Such a lovely group for my hot cross bun demo. Loo Such a lovely group for my hot cross bun demo. Looking forward to seeing all the results! Hot cross buns anyone? I have plenty! The beauty of making your own buns is that you get to choose the spice mix. Mine was cinnamon, mace, allspice, ginger, nutmeg and a tiny pinch of black cardamom. If you happen to have a pot of mixed spice you’ll be very surprised at the mix - one includes coriander, dill, ginger, cassia bark and caraway! #easterbaking #hotcrossbuns #breadmakingdemo #bakingspices
A glorious morning here! Barley sourdough bread th A glorious morning here! Barley sourdough bread this morning - 20% scalded first, with Mungoswells wholemeal. Organic white and barley flour from @shiptonmill Such a lovely dough to handle. Inspired by a Miller encountered on Art of the Miller conference.
. Just off to Stroud Farmers’ market for the cheese. .
Don’t forget #breadchat on Monday evening on equipment!
