*Do not cook sandwiches over high heat, this will toast the bread to quickly and not allow enough time for the cheese to melt. Slowly over medium head is the way to go.

Milky Way Caramel Cheesecake Brownies
Milky Way Caramel Cheesecake Brownies
Milky Way Cheesecake Brownies are full of cheesecake and dripping with ooey-gooey caramel! These will be a hit at your next party! Prep Time?10?minutes Cook Time?35?minutes cool?1?hour Total Time?1?hour?45?minutes Brownie Layer- 1?cup?butter?, melted
- 1?teaspoon?vanilla
- 4?large eggs
- 2?cups?sugar
- ??cup?unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1?cup?flour
- ??teaspoon?baking powder
- ??teaspoon?salt
Cheesecake Layer- 16?oz?cream cheese?, softened (2 packs)
- ??cup?sugar
- 1?teaspoon?vanilla
- 2?eggs
- 2?cups?chopped Milky Way Candy Bars
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a stand mixer or with a hand mixer combine melted butter with sugar and vanilla. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each one. Add the cocoa and mix well. Then add the flour, baking powder and salt and mix until just combined, do not over mix. Set aside one cup of the brownie batter and smooth the rest into a foil lined 9¡Á13 baking dish.
Next layer:With your stand mixer or hand mixer (cleaned off), begin making your cheesecake layer by beating cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add the vanilla and then the eggs one at a time, beating well after each one. Pour the cream cheese mixture on top of the brownie mixture and using a spatula, smooth it evenly over the brownie batter. Sprinkle the chopped Milky Way Simple Caramel slices evenly over cream cheese layer. They should be close together and pretty much covering the cream cheese layer. Using the reserved cup of brownie batter, drop spoonfuls over the top of the candy bar layer, scattering around. Use your spatula or a butter knife to gently swirl the batters. This will combine the cream cheese layer and top brownies layer a bit, which covering the candies in batter. This does not need to be perfect. Bake at 350 for 45 minutes. Allow to cool completely before cutting into squares (at least an hour).
- After my brownies were done baking, I let cool for about 30 minutes, and then I was able to lift them all out of the baking dish with the foil (by grabbing the sides of the foil). This helped to cool more quickly. You can also set the baking dish on a wire rack to cool faster.
- Be sure to refrigerate the brownies when you are done serving.
I like these best served cold so I allow them to cool for an hour on the counter, and then refrigerate another hour before serving. It's up to you! - Some people have noted that it took much longer for their brownies to cook. I would check them at the 45 minute mark, and then every 5 minutes after that if they don't seem done. I have made them several times and the 45 minutes is always perfect for mine, but people have noted it taking up to an hour for them. So just check them as they are cooking.

Cheesy Dinner RollsThese soft, homemade dinner rolls are a prefect addition to any dinner and they have an added bonus of gooey, cheesy center!

- 2?tsp?sugar
- 1 1/2?tsp?salt?to taste
- 1/4?oz?rapid rise (instant) yeast?(1 envelope)
- 1 1/2?cups?warm whole milk?warmed to 110¡ã-120¡ã
- 1/4?cup?water?warmed to 110¡ã-120¡ã
- 6?tbsp?unsalted butter?melted
- 1?large egg
- 5-6?oz?Mozzarella cheese?block
Topping:- 1?egg white?lightly beaten
- 1-2?tbsp?coarse or sea salt
- 1-2?tbsp?fresh minced rosemary?optional
Prepare the dough:Combine flour, sugar, salt, and instant yeast in the bowl if the stand up mixing bowl and whisk it together. Heat up milk, water, and butter in the small sauce pot over medium heat until it reaches 110¡ã-120¡ã. Take off heat once temperature is reached. Fit the dough hook attachment to the mixer and start mixing on stir. Slowly pour in the warm milk mixture into the bowl and then add the egg. Keep slowly mixing until the dough comes together completely. Stop and scrape the dough hook and the sides when needed. Sprinkle a large mixing bowl lightly with flour and transfer the dough into it. Cover it with plastic wrap and a clean towel and place into the warm place to raise for about an hour.Note:?good temperature for the dough to rise is around 78¡ã degrees. That is warmer than I like to keep my house so I usually find or create a warm place. I turn on the oven and place the bowl with the dough near it, that way it stays in the warmer ambient temperature.
Prepare the rolls:Grease three 8 or 9 inch round baking pans. (Either size pan should work.) Take out the dough and roll it in a long roll, about 3 inches thick. Cut it in about even 18 pieces. Cut the cheese block into 18 cubes. Gently press each dough piece into a circle and place the cheese cube in the center of the dough circle. Bring the edges together and seal it up. Place the roll in a greased baking pan, seam down. Repeat with the remaining dough and cheese. Cover the baking pans with rolls with a clean paper towel and let them rise for about 45 minutes in a warm place. Preheat the oven to 375¡ã. Whisk the egg white in a small bowl and brush the rolls with egg white and sprinkle with some coarse salt. Bake rolls at 375¡ã for 18-20 minutes, until golden brown.

Honey Lemon Dinner RollsThese soft and fluffy honey dinner rolls are made with lemon and honey inside and topped with warm, buttery lemon honey mixture. Prep Time1hour?hr?30minutes?mins Cook Time20minutes?mins Total Time1hour?hr?50minutes?mins Course:?Side Dish Cuisine:?American ?¿ªÔÆÌåÓýs:?12?rolls ?Calories:?251kcal ?- 1 1/2?cups?whole milk
- 1?Tbsp?white granulated sugar
- 1/4?oz?packet of Rapid Rise yeast
- 4 to 4 1/4?cups?all purpose flour
- 3?Tbsp?salted butter?melted
- 1?egg
- 1?tsp?lemon extract
- Zest of 1 lemon
- 2?Tbsp?honey
- 1?tsp?salt
- Butter topping:
- 2?Tbsp?butter?melted
- 1 1/2?Tbsp?honey
- 1/4?tsp?lemon extract
Combine sugar and yeast in a mixing bowl. Warm up your milk to 120 degrees and add warm milk to the sugar and yeast. Stir and let the mixture bloom for 10 minutes. Add 3 cups of flour and salt to the mixing bowl of the electric mixer. Start mixing on low and pour in the milk mixture. Add egg, melted butter, honey, lemon extract and lemon zest to the mixing bowl as well. Add remaining flour to the mixture, while it's stirring, 1/4 cup at a time. Mix until all flour is just combined. The dough will be thick and coming off the walls but still sticky. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead it a few times. Shape it into a circle, cover with some saran wrap and a towel and let it rest and rise for 30-45 minutes. (I usually put my dough on a thick cutting board and I leave it on or near a warm stove. Make sure the stove-top is NOT on but the oven is on low temperature.) Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces. (You can make smaller rolls and more rolls but dividing into 24 pieces but you will have to adjust baking temperature.) Very lightly flour your hands and roll each dough piece into a ball. I chose to do these dinner roll in 2 9-inch round pans because I wanted to achieve a flower look. You can choose to use a 9x13 pan and place all dough balls into one pan. Make sure to grease the pans you use. Add rolled dough balls into greased pans. Divide the dough balls into 6 in each round pan (or place all 12 in a 9x13 pan). Cover with a towel and let them rise for 30-60 minutes, until doubled in size. Preheat the oven to 375. Bake dinner rolls for 18-20 minutes, until golden brown on top. (Remember to adjust time if making 24 smaller rolls.) Melt butter in the microwave and mix it with honey and lemon extract. Brush all dinner rolls generously with the butter mixture.

Big, flaky refrigerated crescent dough filled with easy to make strawberry filling. Perfect recipe for Mother's Day, brunch, and many other occasions. Prep Time10minutes?mins Cook Time30minutes?mins Total Time40minutes?mins Course:?Breakfast, Brunch Cuisine:?American ?¿ªÔÆÌåÓýs:?8 ?Calories:?201kcal ?- 12?oz?package of Crescent Grands dough?the big and flaky kind
Filling:- 10?oz?strawberries
- 2?tsp?lemon juice
- 2?tsp?vanilla extract
- 1?vanilla bean?or 1 tsp vanilla bean paste
- 1/3?cup?white granulated sugar
Topping:- 2?tsp?white granulated sugar
- 1?tsp?cinnamon
Chop strawberries and add them to a small sauce pot. Scrape vanilla seeds into the pot with strawberries. Add lemon juice, vanilla and sugar as well. Mix well until all incorporated. Simmer over medium heat for 13-15 minutes. A lot of the liquid will be cooked out (not all!), making it thicker and easy to spread without pouring out. Let cool to room temperature so you don't get burned. Preheat oven to 350¨H and cover a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Lightly grease the parchment paper. Open the crescent dough, unroll it and cut the predesignated triangles. Spread about a tablespoon of vanilla strawberry mixture over each triangle. Carefully roll up the triangles, starting at the wide end. Lay all the rolled strawberry rolls on the prepared baking sheet. Mix 2 tsp of sugar with 1 tsp of cinnamon and sprinkle each rolled pastry. Bake for 15 minutes, until raised and golden brown.
- To Add Glaze:?Use 1/4 cup of powdered sugar, about 1/4 cup of cinnamon (if you wish) and 1 Tbsp of heavy cream or half and half. Combine powder sugar and cinnamon and whisk in heavy whipping cream. Whisk until glaze is smooth and pour some glaze over the warm scones.
- Storing and Reheating:?If you happen to have any crescent rolls leftover, it¡¯s best to store them in the refrigerator. Use an air-tight food storage container and refrigerate. They should last 2-3 days. You can easily reheat them for a few seconds in a microwave or in the oven at 300¡ã

- 3 2/3?cups?all purpose flour
- 1/4?oz?rapid rise (instant) yeast
- 1/3?cup?white granulated sugar
- 1?tsp?salt
- 1?cup?low fat buttermilk
- 6?Tbsp?unsalted butter
- 3?large egg yolks
- Caramelized onions:
- 3?large yellow onions?sliced thin
- 2?Tbsp?vegetable oil
- 1?tsp?sugar
- Salt
In a bowl of an electric mixer, combine flour, yeast, sugar and salt. Mix well. Use dough hook attachment. In a sauce pot, over medium heat, heat up butter until almost melted and add buttermilk while stirring. Stir slowly while it's heather through. Use cooking thermometer to check that temperature is about 120 degrees. Start mixer on low speed while pouring in buttermilk mixture. Add egg yolks. Once dry ingredients are mixed in with wet, rise speed to medium-high. Mix for about 5 minutes, until dough is smooth, elastic and is easily coming off the walls. Don't walk away because you will need to hold on to your mixer here. Shape dough into a circle and place it in the bottom of the bowl. Cover with saran wrap and place in a warm, dry place for it to rise. Let it rise until doubled in size. It may take 45-60 minutes. While dough is rising: Preheat a large cooking pan with oil, over medium-low heat. Add sliced onions and sprinkle with a little bit of sugar and some salt. Stir well. Cook slowly (medium-low heat), stirring often, as the onions caramelize to nice brown color. It can take about 30-40 minutes. Set aside when done. Grease a 9x13 baking dish. When dough is ready, cut in half so it's easier to work with. Roll out the dough to about 1/4 inch thick. Cut circles using a round cookie cutter (or another round cuter) that's about 4 inches in diameter. Scoop about a tablespoon of caramelized onions in the center of each circle. Bring sides together, retaining round shape, and seal them well. Place dough rounds in a greased dish, seam down. Repeat with remaining dough. (You will have some scraps left over but most dough will be used.) Lay out all the rolls evenly, in the pan. Cover with saran wrap and let them rise in a warm, dry place, to about a size and a half bigger. Preheat oven to 375. Bake raised rolls for 18-23 minutes. (Optional: top off with more caramelized onions before or after baking the rolls.)

- 1?packet of rapid rise (instant) yeast
- 1?cup?whole milk

- 1/4?cup?white granulated sugar
- 1/4?cup?unsalted butter
- 1 1/2?tsp?coarse salt
- 1?egg?room temperature
- 1?cup?mashed potatoes?warm
In a small sauce pot, combine milk, water, and butter. Heat through on medium-low heat, until butter starts to melt (milk temperature reaches about 120¡ãF). Take off heat. In a bowl of your electric mixer, combine flour, sugar, salt, and yeast. Turn the mixer or low and mix to combine. Add mashed potatoes and mix until it starts to incorporate.Quickly whisk the egg into the warmed milk mixture and slowly pour the milk mixture into the flour mixture while it's mixing on "stir" setting. Add the mashed potatoes. Keep mixing on low until all combined.Raise the speed a little and beat a few seconds until smooth. Take out the dough and place it onto a lightly floured surface. Knead the dough, adding a little bit more flour if necessary (if the dough feels very sticky), until it's elastic and smooth. Place the dough into a lightly greased bowl and roll it so the dough gets a little greased as well. Cover it with a towel and keep it in a warm and dry place. Let it rise for an hour to an hour and a half, until doubled in size. Deflate the dough, take it out, and split in two even halves. Cover and let it rest for about 10 minutes. Roll each piece into a long roll and divide each roll into 12 pieces. Roll them into smooth balls and place them onto a lightly greased baking pan. (I used 2 13x9 baking pans with 12 rolls in each pan.)Notes:- you can also divide them into 16-18 pieces if you want larger rolls.- if you want the rolls that sit tight together that you have to pull apart, place more rolls into the baking dish, closer together. If you want rolls that are more individual and bakes on all sides, place them into a larger baking dish and spaced apart about 2 inches. Cover and let them raise for about 30-45 minutes, until doubled in size. Preheat the oven to 375¡ãF and bake the rolls for about 18-20 minutes, until golden brown and feel set.Note:?you can also take internal temperature of the center roll, in the middle. Dinner rolls are done when they reach 190¡ãF internal temperature.
- Storing:?You can store the rolls for a?few of days at room temperature.?Make sure to keep the rolls an?airtight?plastic bag or in an?airtight?food storage container.?How long the rolls last?highly depends on the conditions, like temperature and humidity. If you live in a humid environment, they will only last a couple of days.?You can also keep the in the?refrigerator?for a few days longer and simply?reheat?then for a few seconds in the microwave when needed. Store them in an?air-tight?container in the refrigerator as well.

World's Best No Yeast Bread - Irish Soda Bread!RECIPE VIDEO ABOVE.?The world's best bread made without yeast! Rustic, hearty bread made using baking soda for rise instead of yeast but still has an aerated, chewy crumb like normal bread. No rise time! Traditional Irish recipe - no egg or butter, it's better without (read in post). use a combination of white and whole wheat flour for best flavour. Prep Time5minutes?mins Cook Time40minutes?mins Total Time45minutes?mins Course:?Bread, Sides Cuisine:?Irish Keyword:?Bread without yeast, Irish Soda Bread, No yeast bread ?¿ªÔÆÌåÓýs:?12 ?Calories:?160cal ?Author:?Nagi - 2?cups?white flour?(plain / all purpose)
- 1 3/4?cups?wholemeal flour?(wholewheat, Note 1)
- 2 - 3?tbsp?Extra Flour?(either flour, for dusting)
- 1 1/2?tsp?baking soda?(bi-carb, Note 2)
- 1 1/2?tsp?salt
- 2?cups?buttermilk?, fridge cold (Note 3)
Preheat oven to 220¡ãC/430¡ãF (200¡ãC fan). Line tray with baking paper. Whisk both flours (not Extra Flour), baking soda and salt in a bowl. Add buttermilk, stir until it's too hard to stir anymore. Sprinkle 2 tbsp Extra Flour onto work surface, scrape out dough, sprinkle with more flour. Gently knead no more than 8 times, bring together into a ball. (Note 4) Transfer to tray, pat into 2.5cm/1" thick disc. Cut cross on surface 1cm / 0.3" deep using serrated knife. Bake 20 minutes.?Turn oven down?to 200¡ãC/390¡ãF (180¡ãC fan). Bake further 20 minutes, or until the base sounds hollow when tapped in the middle. Transfer to rack and cool for at least 30 minutes before slicing.?
1. Flour?- wholemeal flour gives this bread a slightly nutty flavour which is lovely. Coarse or fine ground. Can be made with just plain/all purpose flour but flavour is more plain. Don't bother using bread flour - it's wasted on this no yeast bread.2. Baking soda?- also known as bicarbonate soda (bi-carb), 3x more powerful than baking powder. Stronger rise power required for this no-yeast bread.?3. Buttermilk substitute:- 1.75 cups (435ml) + 1 tbsp of full fat milk
- 1 tbsp white vinegar or lemon juice (or other clear vinegar)
- Mix the milk and lemon juice together, set aside for 15 minutes. It will congeal on surface. Then use in place of buttermilk in recipe.
- Volume is just shy of 2 cups of buttermilk (per recipe) because this substitute is thinner so you need to use a touch less otherwise dough gets too wet.
4. Dough stickiness?- use more flour as required. The trick is to use just enough flour to make the dough manageable because stickier dough = more moist bread.5. Variations -?This bread is terrific as is, it's a classic traditional Irish Soda Bread. Some popular flavoured versions (stir in with dry ingredients):- Oats?- brush surface with extra buttermilk and sprinkle with oats. Can also mix in oats (up to 1 cup), but reduce flour in dough by 1/2 cup;
- Raisins!?Stir in 1 cup
- Seeds!?Pumpkin, linseeds, sesame seeds, sunflower seeds, poppyseed. Stir through and sprinkle on top, about 1/2 cup.?
6. ¿ªÔÆÌåÓý -?Especially great served warm! Use like normal bread - sandwiches, dunking, mopping plates clean, toasting, grilled cheese.7. Storage?- keeps well for 3 days in an airtight container, 4 to 5 days in the fridge. Or freeze it for months!8. Nutrition?per slice.

Cheese bread (no knead!)Recipe video above. Prep Time5minutes?mins Cook Time45minutes?mins Dough rising2hours?hrs Course:?Bread Cuisine:?Western Keyword:?Cheese Bread, easy yeast bread, no knead bread ?¿ªÔÆÌåÓýs:?10?- 12 ?Calories:?273cal ?Author:?Nagi - 3?cups?bread flour?(Note 1 re: plain/all-purpose flour)
- 2?tsp?instant yeast?aka rapid rise (Note 2)
- 1 1/2?tsp?cooking/kosher salt
- 1 1/2?cups?very warm tap water?(Note 3)
- 2 1/2?cups (tightly packed)?Colby cheese?, freshly shredded (or other cheese of choice - Note 4)
SHORTHAND RECIPE - for expertsMix dry ingredients, mix in water. Rise 2 - 3 hrs until doubled. Preheat pot 240¡ãC/450¡ãF (220¡ãC fan). Turn dough out. Reserve 1/3 cheese for topping. Fold inwards 4 times, stuffed/layered with remaining cheese. Flip onto parchment paper. Pile reserved cheese on top. Bake 35 minutes covered, 10 minutes uncovered. Rest 10 minutes. Eat!
Magic no-knead dough:Shaggy dough -?Using a rubber spatula, mix flour, salt and yeast in a large bowl. Add water, then mix using the handle of the spatula until you can no longer see flour. The dough should be too sticky to knead by hand, but not pourable like cake batter (see video at X seconds). Rise -?Cover with cling wrap and leave to rise in a warm place for 2 to 3 hours until the dough doubles in volume (Note 5). The surface should be bubbly, and the mixture should jiggle when you shake the bowl. Preheat pot -?Half an hour before the dough is ready, put a 24-28cm / 4.5-8 quart heavy based pot with a lid in the oven to preheat to 240¡ãC/450¡ãF (220¡ãC fan-forced).?Note 7 for no dutch oven method.
Shape loaf:Pat into disc?- Sprinkle work surface with 1 tbsp flour. Scrape dough out, sprinkle surface with flour, pat into a ~20cm/8" disc. Cheese it?- Set aside 1/3 of the cheese for topping. Cover surface with half the remaining cheese. Fold inwards stuffed with cheese?- Using a dough scraper or anything of similar shape (cake server, large knife, spatula), fold the sides inwards 4 times to roughly form a roundish shape, topping each layer of with the remaining cheese (but keep the final layer cheese free, it will be the base of the bread). (Note 6 for tips) Paper transfer?- Flip the dough onto a sheet of parchment/baking paper so the seamside is (mostly) facedown. Tidy the shape if desired. (Note 6) Cheese crown?- Pile the reserved cheese on.
BakeHot pot transfer?- Remove hot pot from the oven. Use paper to transfer dough into the pot, keeping it on the paper. Put lid on. Bake?35 minutes. Remove lid. Bake 10 minutes to colour the surface. Cool?- Remove pot from oven. Use paper to transfer bread onto a cooling rack. Remove paper. Cool at least 10 minutes before slicing! (Note 8)
Read in post?for more details on each point below.1. Bread flour?- more chewy result like your favourite (expensive!) artisan bakery bread. Plain/all-purpose flour works fine but not quite as chewy.?2. Instant yeast?- Doesn't need to be frothed in warm water, just mix straight into dry ingredients. Comes in canisters, labelled as "instant yeast".?Active dry yeast?(ie normal yeast) - Dissolve yeast in 1/4 cup of the warm water first (no need to let it foam). then mix in remaining water. Immediately add flour and salt, then mix. Proceed with recipe as written.3. Water?- Not boiling (kills yeast), not lukewarm (inhibits dough rising). Stick your finger in. Happy to bathe in it? Perfect temp! (If you want to be accurate, 35C/95F is a good target, but the acceptable range is fairly broad. This bread is forgiving!)4. Cheese?- Freshly grated is best because it melts better (store bought shredded = anti-caking agents = inhibits melting) and the strands are finer so it doesn't weigh the bread down. However, in the event of an emergency, pre-shredded will work just fine, your bread will be springy and soft and have the same wicked crust. It just won't rise quite as well as pictured.Other cheeses?- Any cheese (other than mozzarella) that melts well will work great here, like cheddar, tasty, Monterey Jack, gruyere. I like Colby for it's melting qualities and it doesn't weigh the bread down as it rises in the oven, and it's not greasy (like Tasty cheese).?Re: mozzarella?- it will work fine but it doesn't have enough flavour in it compared to other cheeses.5. Warm place?= ~25¡ãC/77¡ãF+. Warmer = faster rise. Avoid direct sunlight. Neat trick - your dryer! Run it (empty) for a few minutes. Put bowl in, shut door. Nice and warm inside = perfect draught free dough rising location!6. Folding inwards?- Dust the dough scraper with flour as needed. No need to worry about being meticulous here, we can reshape it later, this is more about deflating the dough and enclosing the cheese inside the dough.Shaping dough?- The dough expands so much in the oven and the pot defines the shape so there's not much point shaping it. You don't even need to tidy it that much. Just roughly shape it into a uniform round or oval.7. No dutch oven method ¨C?use 20cm/8¡± square metal pan (NOT glass, may shatter). Place in oven on middle shelf where bread will bake (or shelf under if tray won¡¯t fit on same shelf), preheat oven. Boil kettle. Place paper with shaped dough on a baking tray. When you put the bread in, work fast as follows ¨C place bread in oven next to (or on the shelf above) the pan, fill pan with about 2cm/1" boiling water, shut oven door = makeshift dutch oven steamer effect! Bake for 40 minutes until it¡¯s a deep golden brown (if it gets too brown because of the cheese, cover loosely with foil).8. Resting bread?for at least 10 minutes before cutting is essential as it will finish cooking and dry the crumb out. If you slice before then, the dough will look raw (it's not, but it will seem like it is).9. Make-ahead -?Overnight refrigeration of the?Crusty Artisan Bread?on which the Cheese Bread dough is based not only works 100% (re: rising) but the bread develops more flavour. As yet untested for cheese bread! Concerned the amount of cheese in this might affect the rising ability.?Will?update once tested.10. Storage?- The bread is at its prime freshly made, still great for 24 - 36 hours. After this, toast and slather with butter. So good, you will forever hope for leftover cheese bread!Nutrition per slice, assuming 10 slices.?

Naan recipe ¨C fluffy, bubbly, chewy!Recipe video above.?This is a recipe for naan bread that's fluffy, bubbly and chewy, just as it should be. Nobody will ever mistake this for just another basic flatbread! Perfect for slopping up your favourite Indian curries ¨C yet so good that you'll happily devour it plain, straight out of the skillet.Bearing in mind that we aren't cooking in nuclear-level 480¡ãC hot tandoors, see in post for background notes on how I find this recipe to most closely replicates restaurant naan.Makes:?6 naans, ~15-16cm / 6 - 7" diameter.

Cheese Naan:- Shredded cheese?(for cheese naan) ¨C Monterey Jack, cheddar, tasty, colby, anything that melts (shred yourself) (Note 6)
Bloom yeast:?Mix yeast with warm water and sugar in a small bowl. Cover with cling wrap, leave for 10 minutes until foamy. Egg and milk:?Whisk milk and egg together. Flour:?Sift flour and salt into a separate bowl. Add wet ingredients:?Make a well in the flour, add yeast mixture, and butter and egg mixture. Mix together with a spatula. Once the flour is mostly incorporated, switch to your hands and bring it together into a ball. No kneading is required. Proof 1:?Cover the bowl with cling-wrap, then leave in a warm place for 1 - 1.5 hrs until it doubles in size. (Note 7) Cut into 6 pieces:?Place the dough on a lightly floured surface. Cut into 6 equal pieces, then shape into balls into spheres with a smooth surface by stretching the surface and tucking it under (see video). Proof 2:?Place balls on a lightly-floured tray or plate. Sprinkle lightly with flour, cover loosely with a lightweight tea towel. Put in a warm place to rise for 15 minutes until it increases in size by about 50%. Roll out:?Place a round on a lightly-floured work surface, flatten with your hand. Roll out into 3 - 4mm / 0.12 - 0.16" thick rounds (about 16cm / 6.5" wide). Heat skillet:?Rub a cast iron skillet with a very light coat of oil using 1/2 tsp oil on a paper towl (unless already well seasoned). Set over high heat until you see wisps of smoke. (Note 8 for other pans) Cook naan:?Place a naan dough in the skillet and cook for 1 to 1 1/2 minutes until the underside is deep golden / slightly charred ¨C the surface should get bubbly. Flip then cook the other side for 1 minute until the bubbles become deep golden brown. Cook remaining naan:?Remove, set aside, and repeat with remaining naan, taking care to regulate the heat of the skillet so it doesn't get too hot. Finishing:?Brush freshly cooked naan with melted butter or ghee (or garlic butter, Note 5). Sprinkle with nigella seeds and coriander. Serve hot!
Cheese Naan:Roll out a naan per above directions. Brush with plain butter or garlic butter. (Note 5) Place a mound of cheese in the middle - about 1/4 cup, lightly-packed. Bundle it up, money bag-style, then twist to seal. Turn upside down so the smooth side is up. Roll out to 6-7mm / 1/4" thick rounds. Heat a well-seasoned cast iron skillet preheated over high heat, but not until the skillet is smoking. Cook naan for around 1 1/2 minutes on the first side until golden ¨C it will puff up! Turn and cook the other side for around 45 seconds.
1. Yeast?¨C This recipe works with dry active yeast too, but the naan is not quite as soft. Follow recipe as written, including yeast quantity. Also note, rapid-rise/instant yeast normally does not need to activated in warm water but it's a very specific step for this recipe because it yields a softer naan than adding the instant yeast directly into the dough. (Yes, we made a LOT of naan to try out all the various combinations to figure out the best one!).2. Egg?¨C I know this sounds strange, but we need 1/2 a large egg for one batch of this naan! Any more and it dries out the inside too much.Just crack an egg in a bowl, whisk, then measure out 1 1/2 tbsp. OR just make a double batch of this naan so you can use one whole egg!3. Flour?¨C Bread flour makes the softest, fluffiest naan. But all-purpose/plain flour is very nearly as good. I wouldn't make a special trip to the supermarket just to get bread flour. But if you've got it, use it!4. Ghee?is clarified butter, one of the traditional fats used in Indian cooking. It is simply butter without the water and milk solids, so you have pure butter fat. It has a more intense flavour than butter. Either buy it,?make it?(it¡¯s easy and keeps for months) or just use normal butter!5. Garlic butter:?Place 2 tbsp/30g salted butter or?ghee?and 1/2 tsp crushed garlic* in a small bowl. Microwave until butter has melted (do it in bursts so it doesn't explode!!). Stand for a couple of minutes to let the garlic flavour infuse before using.* Garlic crushed using a garlic crusher or microplane6. Cheese?¨C Any melting cheese works fine here, though bear in mind if you use mozzarella it doesn't have much flavour. Monterey Jack is a good option that has flavour and stretches nicely!7. How to promote dough rising?¨C One of my favourite places to proof dough is in my dryer!!! Draught proof, easy to heat up a small space. Just run it for a couple of minutes, put the bowl in, close the door and leave it. Just don't turn it on!8. Cooking pan?¨C If you don't have a cast iron pan, you can use another type of skillet. Pour 1/2 tsp oil on a paper towel then lightly rub the base. DO NOT use a non-stick pan ¨C the high heat required to properly cook naan will destroy the non-stick coating!Here is the cast iron skillet I use?- it's a Lodge (excellent value, indestructible!)9. Make ahead naan?¨C A last-minute discovery was that naan is great for making ahead! In fact, the bread flavour improves overnight, which is typical of most breads.Make the dough up to the end of Step 5 - Proof 1. Then after the dough has doubled in size, put the bowl with the dough it in the fridge overnight (I've done 24 hours). Do not punch dough down or touch it ¨C just put it in as is. The fridge stops the dough from rising any further.Take the bowl out of the fridge at least a couple of hours before cooking. We need to take the fridge chill out of it completely otherwise the dough won't rise for Proof #2 (Step 6). Cut into 6 pieces, then proceed with recipe from Step 6 onwards.?10. Nutrition per naan?¨C Excludes extra ghee or butter brushed on top (and certainly excluding the cheese ¨C? I have not control over how much you choose to stuff it with!)

- 2?eggs
- 3/4 cup / 185 ml?milk?, any fat %
- 1?CUP?canned creamed corn?(NOT 1 CAN!!!)
Dry Ingredients- 3/4 cup?yellow cornmeal?(sold in packets labelled "polenta" in Australia) (Note 1)
- 1 1/2 cups (225g)?flour?(plain/all purpose)
- 1?tbsp?baking powder
- 1/2 cup (110g)?white sugar?(can reduce to 1/4 cup)
- 1/4?tsp?salt
Baking:- Extra melted butter?for greasing and brushing
Preheat oven to 180C/350F.?Brush a 12 hole standard muffin tin with melted butter. Combine Dry ingredients in a bowl and give them a quick stir to combine. Whisk Wet ingredients in a bowl until combined. Pour Wet into Dry ingredients. Mix until combined. Spoon the batter into the greased muffin tray - use it all up, fill the holes right up! Bake in the oven for 20 minutes or until the top is golden brown. Remove muffin tray from the oven. Optional: Brush tops with melted butter. Cool for 5 minutes then remove muffins onto a rack.
1. Cornmeal (polenta):?In Australia, cornmeal is labelled as "polenta" in most supermarkets.?Polenta is a porridge-like side dish that has a consistency like a very loose creamy mashed potato. It is to Italians what Mashed Potato is to other countries. Polenta is made from cornmeal which is ground corn.I get the?Marco Polo?and?Il Molino?brands (both sold at Woolworths). Do not get instant polenta.2. Flour?- Can sub flour + baking powder with?self?raising flour.3. STORING:?These keep well for a 3 to 4 days in an airtight container. They are always best served warm with butter and honey, or something for dunking!4. CREAMED CORN SUB:?If you can't get canned creamed corn, use this as a sub (we tried it and it's near perfect) - use 1 can of corn kernels. Put all the corn + 1/3 of the liquid in the can ?+ 1 tbsp flour into a bowl. Then blitz with hand blender (or use blender) until you can't see whole corn kernels anymore but there are still corn chunks (don't to puree). See video for what creamed corn looks like. Use in place of canned creamed corn in this recipe.5. WHAT THEY TASTE LIKE:?Moist with a muffin like texture with a lovely corn flavour. A bit sweet (2 tsp sugar in each muffin) but not overly sweet (can reduce sugar) with a bit of gritty texture from the cornmeal which is a nice reminder that it's there. I am utterly in love with these Cornbread Muffins!6. Leftover creamed corn:?This is what I do (don't judge me!) - toast bread, heat corn, spread on toast, top with cheese, grill.

Dough shaping- 1 1/2?tbsp?flour?, for dusting
Mix Dough:?Mix flour, yeast and salt in a large bowl. Add water, then use the handle of a wooden spoon to mix until all the flour is incorporated. Dough will be wet and sloppy ¨C not kneadable, but not runny like cake batter. Adjust with more water or flour if needed for right consistency (see video at 17 sec, Note 5). Rise:?Cover with cling wrap or plate, leave on counter for 2 - 3 hours until it doubles in volume, it¡¯s wobbly like jelly and the top is bubbly (see video at 24 seconds). If after 1 hour it doesn¡¯t seem to be rising, move it somewhere warmer (Note 6). Optional ¨C refrigerate for flavour development (Note 9):?At this stage, you can either bake immediately (move onto Step 5) or refrigerate for up to 3 days. Take chill out of refrigerated dough?¨C if you refrigerated dough per above, leave the bowl on the counter for 45 - 60 minutes while the oven is preheating. Cold dough does not rise as well. Preheat oven?(Note 7) - Put dutch oven in oven with lid on (26cm/10" or larger). Preheat to 230¡ãC/450¡ãF (220¡ã fan) 30 minutes prior to baking. (Note 8 for no dutch oven) Shape dough:?Sprinkle work surface with 1 tbsp flour, scrape dough out of bowl. Sprinkle top with 1/2 tbsp flour. Using a dough scraper or anything of similar shape (cake server, large knife, spatula), fold the sides inwards (about 6 folds) to roughly form a roundish shape. Don¡¯t be too meticulous here ¨C you¡¯re about to deform it, it¡¯s more about deflating the bubbles in the dough and forming a shape you can move. Transfer to paper:?Slide a large piece of parchment/baking paper (not wax paper) next to the dough, then flip the dough upside down onto the paper (ie seam side down, smooth side up). Slide/push it towards the middle, then reshape it into a round(ish) shape.?Don't get too hung up about shape. In fact, lopsided = more ridges = more crunchy bits! Dough in pot:?Remove piping hot dutch oven from oven. Use paper to place dough into pot, place lid on. Bake?30 minutes covered, then 12 minutes uncovered or until deep golden and crispy. Cool?on rack for 10 minutes before slicing.
MAKE AHEAD/Storage:- Fridge up to 3 days -?Rise dough per recipe, then leave in bowl and refrigerate up to 3 days. Flavour gets better with time. Dough will stay bubbly for a day or two, then will deflate ¨C that¡¯s fine.?Shape into round and place on paper per recipe, then leave for 45 - 60 minutes to take the chill out of it, then bake per recipe. Cold dough won't rise as well.
- Bread in photos & video?is 2 hr rise, immediate bake.
- Cooked bread?- great fresh for 2 days, then after that, better warmed or toasted. ?Keep in an airtight container or ziplock bag.?This stays more fresh than usual homemade bread, especially if you use bread flour.
- Freeze cooked bread?for up to 3 months.
1. Flour?¨C bread flour will give a more the crumb a more chewy, fluffy texture like bakery Artisan bread because it has higher protein, and bread stays fresher for longer. Plain / all purpose flour still works 100% perfectly, texture is just not quite the same.Wholemeal/wholewheat flour?- start with 30g/ 1/4 cup less flour and just add more as needed to get the consistency shown in the video (because wholemeal flour is a bit more absorbent than white, I find).2. Yeast?¨C use yeast labelled ¡°instant¡± or ¡°rapid rise¡±. If you can only find normal yeast (can be labelled ¡°active dry yeast¡±) then dissolve yeast in water first (no need to let it foam), then immediately add flour and salt and mix. Proceed with recipe as written.3. Salt?¨C reduce to 1 ? tsp if using table salt (finer grains = less volume for same amount of salt) otherwise it will be too salty.4. Water temperature?¨C if it¡¯s so scorching hot you wouldn¡¯t bathe in it, it will kill the yeast. If it¡¯s a lovely temp you could sit in for hours in a bubble bath, it¡¯s the perfect temp.5. Dough consistency?can be affected by factors like different brands of flour, humidity in air. If dough is too dry, add touch of water. Too wet, add a touch of flour. Compare to video at 17 seconds and photos above.6. Dough rising?¨C time will vary depending on room temperature, humidity, flour you use etc. It's fine if it rises faster or slower - you just need to achieve the dough rise as specified (double volume, bubbly surface, wobbly consistency, per video at 24 seconds). I told you - this recipe is forgiving!If it¡¯s coldish in your kitchen (22¡ãC/70¡ãF or less) OR it¡¯s just not rising (check at 1 hour), then tuck the bowl somewhere warmer. Yeast loves warmth!Simple method I use:?in sink with warm (not hot) water, with ramekin to elevate bowl above water level. Or run dryer for a few minutes then place bowl in there. Do not put bowl in direct sunlight indoors ¨C too hot. But in shade near sunlight is good!If dough rises faster than 2 hours?(eg super hot day), then put bowl in fridge to stop the rise while you preheat the oven. On super hot summer days, it can rise in 45 minutes!7. Oven preheating?- If baking immediately, start preheating oven when you can see dough is rising (at 1.5 hours) or if you refrigerated, while dough is resting to take chill out of it.It¡¯s also fine to shape the dough into a round, place it on parchment paper and leave for 30 minutes while oven preheats (I told you this is a flexible recipe!!)8. Dutch oven?(cast iron pot) creates a steamer effect, a home version of professional steamer ovens used by bakeries to make bread.?Pot size does not matter?as long as it's about 26cm/10" or larger. Pot does not shape the bread, it's to act as a steamer. Just need one large enough to give bread steaming space.No dutch oven method?- use 20cm/8¡± square metal pan (or similar but NOT glass, may shatter). Place in oven on middle shelf where bread will bake (or shelf under if tray won¡¯t fit on same shelf), preheat oven. Boil kettle. Place paper with shaped dough on a baking tray. When you put the bread in,?work fast?as follows ¨C place bread in oven, fill pan with boiling water, shut oven door = makeshift dutch oven steamer effect! Bake for full 40 minutes until it's a deep golden brown.Heavy roasting pan with high lid?should also work - preheat per recipe. Bread is about 8-10cm/3.2-4" tall.?9. Fridge?= slows down yeast rising = time to let enzymes in the yeast to do their work, transforming starch into sugar which creates a more flavourful bread. See notes in post for more info.10. Different measures in different countries?¨C cup sizes differ slightly between countries. The difference is not enough to affect the outcome of most recipes, but for baking recipes, it does matter. For this bread, as long as you use EITHER cups OR weights & mls for the flour and water, this recipe will work fine (I tested with US and Aus cups which have the greatest variance in size).12.

Call it a crantini or a cranberry martini, either way, this easy cocktail recipe is a pure delight. It's a simplified version of the famous cosmopolitan and it's a lovely complement to any meal, including a Thanksgiving feast.
The crantini requires just two ingredients. You'll begin by choosing your favorite premium vodka, then shake that with the cranberry liqueur of your choice. To finish off the drink in perfect style, use a few cranberries for the garnish. Dried cranberries can be used year-round and when the fruits are fresh you will have a wonderful little drink for the autumn season.
2 1/2 ounces vodka
1 ounce cranberry liqueur
Dried or fresh cranberries, for garnish
Gather the ingredients.
In a cocktail shaker or mixing glass, pour the vodka and cranberry liqueur. Fill it with ice.
Stir well.
Strain into a chilled cocktail glass.
Garnish by dropping cranberries into the glass. Serve and enjoy.
Tips
Since this recipe is so simple, it will really show off the vodka. That's why you'll want to select a top-shelf vodka that is nice and smooth with a clean taste. Luckily, there are a ton of worthy options on the market today, so you have plenty of bottles to choose from.
There are a few companies that make delicious cranberry liqueurs. Look for brands like Clear Creek, Leopold Brothers, and Wild Moon to get the best-tasting crantini.
Cranberries come into season during the fall months and you can usually find them through the winter holidays. It's a perfect time to use them for garnishing or dry them for future use. You can also put the sweet little fruits to use and make your own cranberry liqueur.
Dried cranberries are readily available at grocery stores and you might recognize them under the brand name "Craisins." They work as a substitute garnish but do not expect them to float like fresh cranberries.
Recipe Variations
Since cranberry is not one of the most common liqueurs and can be hard to find at times, you can also use cranberry juice as a substitute.
If you go the juice route, you may want to add a little simple syrup to this cocktail. Begin with 1/4 ounce and give the drink a taste to see what you think. You can always add more next time you mix it up.
How Strong Is a Crantini?
The crantini is going to be a potent little cocktail. With the average vodka and Leopold Bros. New England Cranberry, it mixes up to 30 percent ABV (60 proof), one of the strongest vodka martinis you'll find. With the juice option, the strength is knocked down to 25 percent ABV (50 proof), which is as strong as the average cosmo. Either way, it's probably best to limit yourself to just one crantini.
