  • I'm working with Oatly and taking on their challenge of swapping my usual dairy products for Oatly in my Black Forest Gateau.
    If you’re feeling inspired, have a gander at more recipes on the Oatly Will It Swap playlist here: bit.ly/3sdNQaj

    This is the first in a potential new series, I attempt to redeem myself for baking transgressions...with mixed results...

    I’ll be honest, I like the chaos but I also like your specific brand of chill chaos. They’re no panic or mania, just chilling, messing about and seeing how it goes!

    @HoojipIsHere 2 роки тому +114

    Ok so as a slow convert to non-dairy I’ve tried every single cream alternative there is and Oatly is by far the best, not for the taste (although it does taste great) but because it’s literally the only one that you can actually whip to the consistency you’d want on a cake. None of the others get anywhere near thick enough

    • @ellie971
      @ellie971 2 роки тому +1

      Can it whip any thicker than it has done here? Curious if you wanted to get it to that really thick slightly overwhipped texture, how far you can take it

    • @HoojipIsHere
      @HoojipIsHere 2 роки тому

      It doesn’t thicken as much as dairy cream, from my experience the Oatly stops before it gets to that nice firmness you get with dairy, but in fairness that’s probably a good thing because then you can’t overwhip it

    I’m super excited about another slew of Baking with Layton videos. It’s like baking with a friend (or friends) and not having to wash the dishes. I actually think the failures- er, not-quite-as-expected outcomes - are part of what makes it fun. Or maybe it’s just reassuring because we all have those not-like-the-photo outcomes. But it can still be fun if it actually works….gives us hope, you know.

    from someone that LOVES whisking: you have to whisk way longer. for each egg you need to whisk for at least 3min (or seperate the eggs and fold in the beaten eggwhite at last to get a stiffer batter). and if you get lumps you need a finer sift or you have to sift twice.
    Have fun baking 💜 and I love your Videos 💜

  • @MaideninMaille

    A tip on folding (from a non-baker, so grains of salt)- fold in your dry ingredients a bit at a time, so they don't have the opportunity to get lumpy. And yes, you're right- I would be quite pleased to have either slice of cake

    One of the things I don't like about working full-time from home now is that I don't bake as much anymore because I don't have an office breakroom to deposit my experiments on for grateful eaters. I am intrigued by this Oatly cream -- will have to seek it out!

  • @elliebryson6045
    @elliebryson6045 Рік тому

    I love the slight chaos of these videos! it makes them more comforting! most other baking videos/shows have a major focus on the cool, calm and collected bake, which just leaves me getting stressed when I try one of their recipes and it doesn't go as calmly. Your videos however, are a real comfort because while, yes there is some chaos, they feel more real. I think you've already got a nice blend of 'Nigella's calm and comfort' and your chaos!

    1) Take a few spoons of the wet and fully mix in the dry (don't worry about knocking the air out) then fold THAT into the rest of the wet so you don't get dry pockets
    2) You need a big Waitrose for cherries in kirsch

    I love this series and the cookbook too! I had, I guess, a very authentic Baking with Layton experience as I could not for the life of me get the lemon curd to set, and also I forgot to add cocoa powder to one of the cakes and had to try and whisk it in after it had already baked for a bit...

  • @someonespostcards4785

    A Daniel J video on a Friday evening? What a treat!
    Also, a little bit of sugar in the cream is a must if you have to whisk it by hand, because it makes it go all fluffy faster! (English isn't my first language, and apparently I hardly know any baking lingo despite watching this for years...)

    To help with the folding and the dry bits within:
    Try taking about three tablespoons worth of your wet and mix it well with the dry ingredients until there is no more dry. After you've ride that mixture of any dry bits, GENTLY fold that into the original wet. It deflates a bit less than the full dry on wet contact, but it takes a bit more patience.

I recently started having Oat-ly milk for hot choccies and been properly having cereal for the first time! I'm pretty excited with this video as I don't really get excited for cakes like this or other desserts cause cream seems to be everywhere yknow?
