With a few basic baking essentials in your pantry, you can quickly, easily and cheaply add some fresh home-baked goods to your meal. These may include a batch of delectable muffins, some light flaky biscuits, a tasty cake, a stack of pancakes, versatile tortilla shells, etc.
The very minimum basics to pull this off are:
flour*
baking powder
salt
fat (oil, margarine, etc.)
Some great add-ons are:
eggs
cinnamon
oats
baking soda
vinegar
milk powder
Have I forgotten anything you think is a minimum essential?
Please tell us.
The more ideas we have, the better prepared we are!
Next time we will talk about what to do with these pantry basics.
*Our family's choice is whole wheat flour. We use this exclusively for all baking, cooking, etc. If you are still using all white flour, try sprinkling in some whole wheat flour to everything you make. After awhile, gradually increase the amount you use. The extra nutritional value and taste it provides is well worth it. Let us know of your successes/challenges with this endeavor.
