• Re: Bake a Batch of Vegan Oatmeal Cookies
  You may be disappointed.This is not really a cookie, it is more like sweet heated goop.Without any kind of flour, or baking soda, or baking powder; you are not really baking anything, just heating it up.

  it's on at 5 in the morning in okc? Really? That's dooming it to failure, isn't it, when it is one of the best cooking shows...what a shame.

• Re: Okonomiyaki: Classic Japanese Street Food
  HI Laurel, it's so light it's hard to weigh, and it's so fluffy it's hard to measure in a cup, but just sprinkle on as much as you like, use the photo at the top of this post as a guideline.

• Re: The Great British Baking Show: All Seasons
  This is my all time favorite show!!!!! I have a hard time here in the States understanding some of the ingredients or where to buy but I can usually find them or something very similar that works.

• Re: Mini Victoria Sponge Cakes
  This recipe rocks! I beat the eggs for about 4 minutes and folded the flour in by hand. Try it!

• Re: Acorn Pancakes
  Great recipe, but that's obviously a stock photo and not a picture of acorn pancakes. Acorn flour is naturally quite brown, so the pancakes will look dark. They're delicious and worth the work though! Our family forages acorns every fall and we look forward to the treats we cook with them all year.
