What's your favourite thing to bake?

Moj July 30th, 2017

I love baking!! I don't always have a chance to bake, or the energy, but it's one of my hobbies I enjoy most!
Yesterday I baked two kinds of cookies and then shared them with a couple neighbours and brought my parents a bunch. It was so nice to spend some time baking again and be able to share my treats with others.

My favourite thing to bake are one of the kinds of cookies I made yesterday...Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip cookies. So easy, yummy and to top it off gluten free!!

What things do you enjoy baking most?

Question in my head, I like to listen to anyone's thoughts.

1. How do you justify the "calories" when consuming baked goods? Regardless of healthy, unhealhty, guilt-free goods. Somehow it is easier to overconsume baked goods, compared to normally prepared foods, despite the same ingredients.

2. How do you justify the "electricity" costs for baking, compared to other means of preparation.

3. How do you justify the "effort/time/monetary" costs for baking, if it is a daily means for your meal preparation (i.e. kind of alot of healthy meals are also recommending baking)

4. How do you... actually "patiently" wait for the baked goods to cool down, before consumption. Likewise similarly for those that requires pre-prepared time (i.e. proofing, or refridgerated before baking)

5. How do you justify, not having to justify anything?

Sound very tempting, wish I could bake/cook. I'm more of a ping person let the microwave do the work. Very lazy but it works for me.

@lazyKatz

actually katz, microwave "baking" does work too - warning : to a certain extent

its just the expectations must be slightly lower, because of the different method of "baking".

but got to becareful because not everything may turn out well.

I like to bake, it doesnt always turn out great. I like making eclairs. It all comes down to a good recipe and VERY specific instructions.
