Megan, one of the best way to test bread to see if it is finished baking is to use an instant read thermometer. Most breads are good at 190 to 200 degrees. No guessing on my part.
I love doing housework while listening to your videos. So motivating as you always get so much done in a day
My husband is such an encouragement to me... I homeschool 3 and we do a lot of ministry stuff. I love a clean organized house and made from scratch foods. And a garden, and a nicely landscaped backyard and an organized garage...I also love to host and have groups over from church. Sooooo reality is - I can't be good at everything and not everything has to be perfectly organized. NY husband always says to me " be gracious to yourself in the same way that you are gracious to the boys!" Such a good reminder! Grace upon grace!❤
So funny story. I have a brand new grain mill and a giant bag of wheat berries in the pantry and they’ve been there for over 6 months 🤦🏻♀️ you’ve given me inspiration to bust it out and actually use it! Did you know wheat berries are shelf stable for 50 years!!? Amazing
Hey there, great to know, I would have stored mine in freezer if I were to ever try milling ❣️
Hi Megan. I know I'm very late to the party, so don't know if you'll even see this, but when I make kebabs I put the meat on one, the peppers on another, the onions on another etc... I find they cook at different rates so if I put them all together the onions may be still crunchy when the meat is done and the tomatoes might be mush. If done separately you can get each thing just the way you like it. I put zucchini on sometimes or cubes of sweet potato. I love your channel!
I took up your recommendation for Ritual when I got pregnant.... They are good! Just think could be helpful for you to mention you can change the scent in future videos! I was pushing my way through the mint ones even though mint made me feel sick in pregnancy... Only to discover about 7 months in you can change the smell to orange!!! 😂
Love your videos. Little bit of joy in my day from a fellow Christian. Keep up the good work. ❤️
I ❤ to watch your experiment baking/cooking. I also ❤❤ that you include the some of the less successful attempts. A new recipe isn’t complete until I have doubted the process. But it is nice to know that cooks I admire have the same thoughts. Your Chicken Pot Pie recipe is the one I use now for my soup - so thank you for that!
I love the fact that honey lasts forever, the good Lord gave us a beautiful gift for sweetness.
Love your bread adventure.... love from Cornwall, UK
I have a a Kitchenaid stand mixer too,bit I didn't know there was a wheat grinder attachment that I could get for it. That's great! I would love to grind my own flour sometimes, as well as start baking homemade bread. The attachment will save me from buying another kitchen gadget that my daughters tell me I don't need!😄..I love how you aren't afraid to try new things,Megan,it's very encouraging.😊💖
They make an ice cream churned too. Works great
Closer to where I live-in Grand Rivers KY-is a restaurant called Pattis 1880’s settlement. They are known for their flower pot bread & strawberry butter they serve as an appetizer with every meal. Delicious! You should definitely stop by there if you happen to be passing through. I say yours turned out very well for 1st try. Great video 💗
I've never thought of making a flavored butter, such a good idea! The terra cotta pots sound fun too! Thanks for sharing!
I have several attachments for my kitchen aid that I love. One was the strainer to replace my hand-cranked Victorio strainer. It is great for making tomato juice. I also have the grinder because I wanted to make a sandwich spread like my grandmother used to make by grinding smoked sausage and boiled eggs. I recently got the grater attachment when my food processor quit working. I haven't used it yet.
You are such a kitchen inspiration and teach and show me things no one else is talking about in such a feminine and homey way! LOVE 🤍🤍🤍
Recommendation for bread bakers. If you don't want to cut into your bread to see if it's done, get a thermometer and once you get an interior temp of 190°, your bread is done. I use my digital thermometer and go up through the bottom, making sure to go in all the way to the center. Works every time.
I make beef roast with unsweetened cherry juice. That’s it. I get many compliments.
I went to a local coffee shop and told the barista to make me something of his own creations. He made me a latte that had hints of lavender and strawberry flavors/extracts and it was amazing!! I would have never put those flavors together with coffee but it was 💯
p.s. So fun to see you parent Miller. Looks like he is ready to take over cleaning the floors! It brought back memories to see you walking him at your mom's. Walking that slowly was one of the more painful parts of being out with the kids when I was conscious of needing to lose weight and they walked minus five miles an hour, stopping to look at every pebble and blade of grass....and had no interest in being in a carriage. Bet your mom loved seeing her baby on the swing with her baby! So special.
I use raw honey and milk in my coffee all the time …!
Recently I visited a coffee shop and they had a coffee mixed with milk/honey and it was called “Winnie the Pooh”. 🍯 😊
Flower pot bread is so nostalgic to me! When I was a kid, my parents would take me to Patti's Place, a restaurant in Grand Rivers, Ky. The flower pot bread there was amazing! I;m going to have to make some for my kids. Thanks for the recipe!
I’m surprised you don’t end up using your beef roasts. I think pot roast is the easiest thing to make on Sunday for lunch. I sear the roast then stick it in the oven for one hour at 400*, then turn it down to 325-350*, put the carrots and maybe potatoes in the pot and leave for church. When we get home, it’s all done. We do have a bit of a drive to church and our service is an hour and a half, so it bakes longer, bu tits so easy and yummy!
I had never heard of baking bread in terra cotta pots, what a cute idea! A tip on knowing how long to bake your bread is that it is usually just right (at least for my preference) when it has an internal temp of around 200 degrees. 😊
I suggest 190° because of carryover cooking, but same technique 😊
I use to work in a cafe and we did a drink called a Honey Badger with cinnamon and honey. I make it all the time! So good 💙
Loved the video. Miller was so cute helping in the kitchen.
Awww Miller helping you vacuum is the cutest thing ❤
That Miller has the most beautiful eyes…love your coffee explorations…I think the bread in smaller pots would look extra cute especially for a spring brunch🥰
Q
I used to work in a small local coffee shop, and we had a “honey bear latte” that the owner and his wife created. It’s butter pecan, French vanilla and real honey! SO GOOD! One pump of each flavor and 1 TBSPN honey for a 12 oz latte!😄
That's a cute name for it!
What a fun baking/inventing day you had with Miller! You have spring flowers how exciting here in Michigan none yet!
Happy to have a new video to watch, I was super stressed yesterday which bled into today and I'm finding comfort, almost like seeing a friend in your video. Thanks for taking the time. I also love the outfit!
Love to see cooking ideas. Have just tried to make my own bread in the last couple of years, so great to see ideas and options. Love the raspberry butter idea!
What an interesting video! The flower pot bread looks amazing! I had a bread making book that had flower pot bread in it. I've not tried it yet but I feel inspired now. Steam continues to cook the bread inside the crust if it's left to cool. Knocking on the bottom to test for a hollow sound is a good way to check if it's done without having to cut it. Thanks for a great video!😊
Great video Megan! I just saw a cool Kitchen Aid attachment that makes shaved ice. It looked so fun and refreshing! You sure had a fun day with Miller and in your kitchen. I love the idea of raspberry butter! I love it when you share recipe ideas. How fun that you get to visit your family farm. Always love your videos!!!!
I have a TON of baking to do tomorrow for my toddler with multiple food allergies. I got lazy and my freezer supply of his safe foods are needing replenished. SO much baking needs done ASAP, but this is going to help motivate me 😁 thanks for the videos. I look forward to them every week.
A rainy day, baking, and A Kitchen Day Megan video. 😊 It actually sounds pretty appealing.
Everything you cook and bake looks so delicious. So does you iced coffees
I like when you experiment! If it fails you’re just helping us not waste time!😂 If it’s a success then score!😂
Megan at her most relatable 😂
Hi Megan, my auntie use to bake bread in pots and they were much smaller than yours and use to rise out of the pots if that’s any help. I’m certainly going to try your raspberry butter and it got me thinking of other fruits I could use (be lovely with scones). I make garlic butter but never thought to do sweet ones. I always by local honey from a farm shop it tastes so much better. I’m not a fan of sweet coffee but I do like iced coffee. I really enjoyed today thanks I love spending time with you over a coffee.
Just an Idea could you leave your sister a basket for things she can’t find a home for so you can quickly put them in right places when you got aa mo xx
Megan, I so look forward to seeing new videos on Thursdays. It's great that you are confident enough to record new recipes and projects. You must know that we just enjoy seeing how everything works out. It makes it so much more genuine and honest, which is part of your appeal. It looks like Miller is teething. The two of you cleaning the kitchen floor is precious, especially when Miller moves your hand away.
Your cooking videos are so fun!
I always think of lavender or rose lattes in the spring!!
I think I need a KitchenAid grain mill now! Thanks for sharing! I've always been told that the flour measurements for bread are never precise in a recipe. A lot depends on the humidity and various other factors. You just start with the amount and add more as needed to get to the texture you are looking for.
I should have went with my gut instead of by the recipe!
@@MeganFoxUnlocked You’ll know next time! 😊
That was the most enjoyable 37mins of my day thank you for sharing you have a beautiful family take care xx
Making bread like you did sounds like a lot of fun! I’m always baking and wanting to try new things.
Spring flavored coffee.... maybe raspberry white chocolate? They sell it as a creamer flavor.
That bread looked and sounded delicious! Love my Kitchen Aid. I have the dough attachment. Beautiful day at the farm. Looks like the big kids had fun as well. Take care and God bless y’all! 😀❤️
Thank you Megan for all you do. You are so sweet and just subscribed recently. I’m in the process of watching the older videos as well. Blessings to you and your family.
I made violet syrup from the violets in my yard, and put it in my coffee when I ran out of sugar. It's quite good!
This is SO cool!! Thanks for sharing this fun thing you do! 💜💜
I actually yelled out “no!” when you mentioned washing the grinder attachment 😂 I own one and you’re definitely only supposed to wipe it up. Enjoyed the video, I have recently embarked on this wheat bread journey too!
I've seen bread baked in the terracotta pots before - yours look amazing and Iove the crunchy crust 😃 You reminded me that I love shish-kabobs so I'm going to have to make some of those soon! Have a great weekend Megan 🥰
I've been experimenting with fresh ground flour. It's important to autolyse, which is mixing the flour and water for letting set for 20 to 30 min. Then adding the other ingredients. I do sourdough, so I mix the starter in right away. I don't know when you would add yeast so you could experiment with that.
You can have my kitchenaid grinder for free! You have to grind it three times to get it fine enough. I invested in an actual grain mill (I bake bread daily) and it’s so nice and takes a fraction of the time!
The crunchy mom in me is wondering what toxins could be lurking in flower pots 😂
Love your videos though! I just found you and I’m totally addicted!
I def. Wouldn't use them unless they are handmade clay pots. 😂
I enjoyed the journey with you!
Oh my Miller is so cute running around behind you in the kitchen. It's the cutest thing. 😍🥰. I've never heard of baking bread in terracotta pots, Wow.👍
A tip I've learned to letting things rise: put them in your oven with the light on! That's it! Usually works for me! 😅
Love your videos Megan! Watching them gives me some motivation and encouragement to find the little joys in mothering and homemaking. ❤😊
Perfect timing megan!!!! My toddler is napping and I am so excited to watch! You are a huge inspiration thank you 💖🙏💖🙏
Thanks for showing up!🧡
"Just call me Ma Ingalls" 😂
Watching during nap time too! Love your videos I always look forward to them and you’re such an Inspiration!
I like the size of your rectangular Tupperware containers. Can you link them please?
I’m excited to look for a grain mill for my Kitchenaid, I have other attachments that I really like & use a lot. Enjoyed your video.
Awesome idea for the bread baking!!
If the loaf sounds hollow when tapped on the top it generally means it's done. Also, different name brands of flour need slightly different equivalents. 😊
Loving your music choices on this one!
LOVE honey in my coffee 👍I will have to try this syrup. And cutest bread loaves 😊
Megan your beef kabob recipe is a family favorite in my household thank you!! Love your channel!❤
I love a honey lavender iced latte! I think you’d love it!
Hello Megan
my late mum used to bake her potato bread in the terricota pots
we called it mushroom bread :)
thankyou for the great memories xxx Gods blessings xx
Great video! Thank you! Bread in a pot, who knew! I started baking sourdough about a year ago and this is a great idea for gifting for spring!
Wonderful!
Finally see you wearing an apron! Love your channel Megan. I don't watch as much as I used to but love that you are still moving along with sharing your life!
Welcome back!
Try:
2 tablespoons of honey mix with 5oz (approx. I just count to 5 as I pour) of creamer and froth. Pour in cold brew and light ice. Yummmm.
My favorite coffee drink is a café Miel and it's sweetened with honey! It's so good!
I love my pasta attachment for my kitchen aid! I went a whole year without buying pasta from the store!
These all look so 😋 yummy!
Great video Megan! 😊
I use beef stew meat for beef stroganoff. So yummy. I do mine in the crock pot so the cubes get super tender.
We use the meat grinder attachment for the KA mixer to grind our own meat for the twos us. When we can find a really good sale on meats we buy a small bulk batch and this way we can control the fat also. I have also used it for grinding dried apricots for my Apricot Balls or dates for Date rolls at Christmas time. Those sticky dried fruits are impossible for me to cut up without my grinding attachment. I wanted the pasta roller but we try to stay off a lot of pasta so that really was not needed even tho I sure would like to play with it. If we weren’t in our twilight years I would most definitely be trying the mill attachment. Thanks for the demo❣️
It looks really good. Good job. Have a blessed Thursday night.
Raspberry butter on homemade bread looks yummy!
I never knew there are attachments for Kitchen Aids 😮 thanks for sharing Megan
So so many attachments.
Very enjoyable. It was fun. Suggestion for the beef cubes: beef stroganoff, gravy and beef on potatoes, yes anyway you can slow cook it. I do vegetable beef soup. I think the bread looks awesome.
My Mom used to make a coffee can bread it was delicious and her favorite part was the mushroom top all crusty.
My go to right now that i make are honey vanilla lattes. so good! Loved your bread experiment because its a struggle for me too.
I just learned today that for fresh ground bread you need to add 1/4 cups additional flour for every cup!
Oh my goodness thanks for the cute video!! Your house is always so beautiful. Now I’m off to make some bread. 😍
All you need to get bread to rise in your oven is to turn on light! Always works for me!
Hello. Enjoy your videos . With beef cubes I cut then in tiny pieces, then sauté in olive oil. The add a splash of wistersire sauce and a turn or two of steak sauce. I serve it with Goya yellow rice. I like when you take the meat and all the sauce and mix it in to cooked yellow rice . My kids like to keep it separate. I was skeptical because my friend gave me the recipe and I thought the stew meat would be tough it’s not and so good. One of my kid’s favorite. So simple the longest part is waiting 20 minutes for rice to be done. Have a great weekend
Looking forward to seeing another new video from you Megan❤ Your videos are one thing I look forward to every Thursday from out here in Bolivia!
happy Thursday!
Hey Megan! Love your Vlogs every Thursday! ...so I'm a pretty regular bread baker and have baked 30 loaves at a time on many occasions. One thing that is vital for good bread is kneading it; this will cause gluten to form in your dough...its basically a must to knead it for no less then 10 minutes in the mixer or with your hands..your choice...it gives it the stretch (aka chance to form gluten or protein) it needs to get a good rise...to check the gluten content take a small piece of dough and gently pull it part; when you can form a somewhat transparent "window" then you have an adequate amount of gluten development to form a beautiful loaf of bread...I can't quite tell you all the science behind it. But i hope the little I have shared will help..Wishing you many more happy baking days!😊
I'm sorry if I'm being too "helpful"..😅 ..
I would Love to learn how to bake bread…. Where do I start?!?❤
@Dana youtube...there are so many good tutorials out there..
One tip about Ritual. The mint flavor was way tooooo much for me, they said to take out that little thing in the bottle that keeps them fresher. It takes some of the mint intensity.
Megan for the first time making the bread in the pots I think it turned out good !! Once you research it more and maybe talk to someone that has done it you can perfect it!! Dont be hard on yourself because your an amazing cook and homemaker..❤ lv ya sweetie
I have a kitchen aid just like that!!! That's interesting... I got mine for a wedding present too. Amazing moma. And cooking
Yum, so good❤
Love this video.
As someone who bakes almost daily haha, I have always found just putting my dough in the oven with the light on creates a nice warm environment for the rise as well! My husband likes our house pretty cold so had to get creative 😂
Great tip!
All us bakers know that. Haha
What do you do if your oven doesn't have a light?
@@senseijoyner you can turn the oven on for a few minutes (5 ish) so it just begins to get warm. Then turn it off and open the door and put dough in. If it feels too warm leave door cracked.
I love honey in coffee!
Keep experimenting with the bread… I love making bread it has changed over the years… first yeast breads then fresh ground wheat bread for years. The last 10 years sour dough bread… I use different grains and grind them. My last experiments have been the artisan breads the best yet. I have always kneaded my breads first by hand and now for 25 years with my Bosch mixer. That is neat you got a grinder attachment for your mixer. I’ve had those flower pots at Terrain and several other places ,so good they bring it right to the table with bread in them. I’ve never done that but have put several in a muffin tin when my bread was still proofing and I quick wanted bread for dinner.
I like when you experiment on video-if it works COOL if it doesn't well, thats how life is sometimes. None the less it is fun and interesting to watch!
For your spring coffee syrup idea, you're gonna think I'm crazy... Lavender latte syrup! I do NOT reccomend drinking hot, lol. Definitely iced only. It's the weirdest thing you'll probably ever put in your mouth, but somehow...strangely good and refreshing. My sister brought it over and I was terrified to try it
Love your channel
The bread looked amazing ⚘⚘
Baking in flower pot was popular decades ago then were cautions out about the pots having lead in them. Might want to make sure.
Megan, when you put the yeast in the water, mix it a little to help it dissolve. Make sure your water is 115 degrees
Starbucks tested a honey latte several years ago, so it can’t be _that_ strange to have those two flavors together. Thanks for another great video. 🙂
Oh I always put honey in my iced coffee!!
