Simple baking ideas may be what you are looking for, that is not that complicated to make. You want something that is easy to whip together and you already have all the ingredients you need.
Now, what are the basics you need when you need to bake?
- flour
- eggs
- milk
- oil or lard
- sugar
- or even butter
This is the basics I think of when I think of baking. Right away, I check to see that I have enough eggs. If I am baking a cake or cookies. Now it if were bread or biscuits. I would need flour for sure. For all of the baking needs you would need flour.
So basic ideas for baking I would think of is oatmeal cookies or sugar cookies. Sugar cookies are great for Xmas time or even Easter time. Cause they are great to make some color icing and decorate.
Simple Baking Ideas
I know I love making bread, it may seem hard to do at first. But once you get the hang of it. Bread is pretty easy to make. You don’t need that much ingredients to make either.
I believe that the hardest, is the first part. When you actually knead the bread. Some people cut this short, and do not do it long enough. Or it may even be the rising of the bread that could be the problem.
But practice makes it perfect, or close to anyways.
You could even just make some baking powder biscuits. As long as you have some good baking powder. I have used some baking powder that was not as good as another brand. So practice makes perfect again. Trial and error basically.
Easy To Make
- cookies
- biscuits
- pie
- bread
- quick bread-banana bread
- brownies
- cake made from a cake mix.
Those are some ideas to think about. Cookies are always good. Depending on what your family likes and what ingredients you have in your kitchen.
If you have ripe bananas then banana bread is something you could make. Or even just some cupcakes, using a cake mix to make them. It is up to you and how you feel. If you feel like making bread or want cookies.
I also have made a zucchini bread, when I had lots of zucchini over the summer. I actually still have lots in the freezer. Also dehydrated some too. You can even make chocolate zucchini bread too. I liked it, it was pretty moist and tasty.
Easy Recipes??
I think it is easy to make recipes that require very little ingredients to put together, and that don’t take much time.
I know bread is easy and simple to make, has not many ingredients. Once you start to make it and continue making it, it gets easier.
You could even do a really simple peanut butter cookie recipe that only needs peanut butter, sugar, and egg. Something you can easily whip up one day. Even your kids or grandkids could do this too. Easily find a recipe online or go here and check this one out.
So if you feel like baking one day and just don’t know what to bake. Think simple and oatmeal cookies are another easy one to do. You can even make some sugar cookies, and these of course can all be found online. Just search up the cookie you are thinking of baking. Most likely you have the ingredients in your fridge and cupboard already. Just need a cookie sheet and an oven and your ready to get baking.
When you have found a good site for your cookie recipes or any baking recipes. Be sure to bookmark them in your computer or ipad. Even better to make a folder for your baking ideas and add them there. Ready for you when you will need them and make another batch of your cookies. Cause next time you make them you know you will be sharing them with others. Cause you already tested the recipe out and know that it was a good one.
But I love to look for all the recipes that can be found online. I have many bookmarked on my computer, so I can easily find them. Maybe even make a whole folder of all the recipes that you love to make. So you will have them for your reference.
When you are done doing your baking maybe you could sit down and have some coffee with your cookies or bread. Whichever one you chose to bake.
