    Thanks for the recipe. I substituted gluten free flour (Bob’s Red Mill), brown sugar instead of white, and added a 2 Tbsps of Sunflower Oil and the hydration was crazy good. You should try it and make a video on it… pretty confident people are looking for that option. God Bless!!!

    I have at least 6 cast iron skillets from my Granny and dad. So I have given one to my sons who love them. I love thinking about my family's food heritage every time I use them.

    Hi TYFS 😊 I subscribed. I've tried this recipe measuring exactly. The result rose nicely but was quite heavy. The flour was aerated and measured using the spoon to cup method. Is this the typical density of the end product?

    Would GF flour work with this? I often have company who is GF and DF and it's a struggle to come up with quick desserts for them.

      @thetakenhandmaiden Рік тому +5

      I use GF baking flour mix and add 1/3 cup tapioca starch to every 1 cup GF flour mix. It works great. You just have to adjust moisture if you are using a regular wheat recipe. And always let you batter rest for up to an hour before baking so the hard grains can absorbe the moisture

    Why do so many people buy premade mixes and ready to eat foods? As I said on one prepping channel, I'm not worried about the hungry hordes leaving the city to steal from my garden because, if they recognized it as food, they wouldn't know how to prepare it to eat!"
    Everything I make is from scratch.

    Are your measurements accurate or appropriate. I watched you measure?
    Are these rounded table spoons or level? This can make a real difference in recipes. One time the cup was level, the next was not. I wanted so badly to get excited about this, but level, or rounded and such specifics were not mentioned. Would you be so kind, as you already are obviously, but be a tad more specific while sharing a recipe 😢. Other wise it seems like it’s a crapshoot. Rounded cup or level. Rounded tablespoon or level. Really hard to see while you were scooping and dumping from jar to jar. 😊 🙏🏻 thank you.
