Oven has finally been fixed, after a month of waiting for a motor to arrive. Finally,MOrgan was able to make Rainbow cupcakes for work. Turned out so pretty. Has about 2 cups of buttermilk in the batter, all from scratch. And , yes, a lot of food colouring, so if you are avoiding food dyes, these are not for you. But, if not, they are light and pretty with a hint of coconut.
Broke one oftem open to see the actual rainbow effect. Frosting is a gentle buttercream. Lovely.Morgan toted these off to work.
A good bread to toast or have with supper. Southern Soda Bread. Nice texture. Has about 3 cups of buttermilk in the mix. Simple, easy recipe........
4 1/2 cups flour
2/3 cup sugar
4 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 1/2 tsp baking soda
pinch kosher salt
3 cups buttermilk
3 large eggs
4 1/2 tbsp butter, melted
Combine all dry ingredients, add wet to the dry and beat into a fairly smooth batter. Pour into 2 veggie sprayed loaf pans. Bake at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes. Make sure not to overbake, or underbake. Cool. Can freeze for later use. ( About a month)
Then after supper, have friends over and indulge on homemade Red Velve cake. This has 2 cups of buttermilk. Make the cake crumb fine and tender. Recipe has been on a previous blog. I made a scant buttercream frosting.....but you could serve it with whip cream.
So nice to have the oven back and working....
