Yogurt Raisin Bread

I made this bread a while ago, and it turn out slightly too saltish as I added more yogurt to replace the milk in the recipe as I tot it would mark the bread softer.. So today I make sure to just follow the recipe strictly. Ha~

I used Greek yogurt as heard it is better. And I use 1/2 cake flour & 1/2 bread flour as I don't have enough bread flour. Added 3 mini box of raisins & 10g rolled oats too. 

The bread turns out well, soft and fluffy. Loved the texture very much, and it's a healthy loaf of bread made from Greek Yogurt!

Tofu Milk Bread

Chanced upon this bread recipe the other day as I was searching for recipes to try few days back. Bookmarked it a while and finally I tried it today. The interesting part is that it is using tofu! Recently I tried another 2 types of ingredients too, but I haven blog about it as I forgot to take pics but I will bake them again as it's really good. Guess what ingredients they are?

I bought the tofu with Omega 3, I always used this for my home-cooked dishes at home for meals. So I cooked some soup and left some for my bread.. The recipe calls for egg in the instructions but I was halfway so I didn't had time to check with the originator. Thus I replace with additional 20g of water as I don't have any more milk left..

Keeping my hearts heavy as I was worried about the outcome, it turns out well. It smells like G-brand bread and soft. Supposed it didn't turn out wrong... Try it..

Easy Fruit Tarts

The other day my neighbor made us Pandan & Strawberry flavored Egg Tarts and the tarts make me crave for fruit tarts... My all-time fav and that is the only way I really eat fruits from. Haha~

I was tossing and turning last night so I went to search for a easy recipe and came across this one. The crust is wat I like hard enuf to handle after baking them and it's crunchy like butter cookies with flavour and goes well with the Longan and kiwi fruit. I forgot to get agar agar powder to make th glaze so I melt some chocolate to keep the fruits in place. It goes very well.. 

I definetely need improvement on the shaping and it definetely looks good if I added strawberry with tt hint of red. Too bad it wasn't the season... But defiantly recommend this recipe to try out.

Rainbow Chiffon missing you!

Saw this rainbow quite a while ago but didn't get down to it. So lazy in between managing my small small online biz, handling the kids solo daily and on top of many chores, I kind of only find time to try different bread recipes as hubby mainly have bread as breakfast!

Last week, a FB fren cum customer, she baked this rainbow chiffon and it so so got me into the Rainbow Chiffon mode. I was thinking how much it could have brighten my kids faces. (Perhaps she took a pic of her lovely gal eating a slice of it so the motherly instinct strikes!) I decided to make it tonight, after clearing up dinner and settling a white loaf of bread for tml..

I refer to the recipe, beating the meringue up after I mixed up the cake batter. I used a separate mixing bowl, scooping out 1 scoop of batter to 2 scoop of meringue each time. I only managed to do 6 colours - Pink, Green, Violet, Orange, Blue & Yellow and I didn't add yellow colourings since the cake batter aldy yellowish in colour.

Towards the last 2 colours, I can feel the meringue getting drier, so worried about my end results... Keeping my fingers crossed as I sent it into the oven.. Luckily it turned out well. But I feel my vanilla taste not strong enuf. Will try it again!

Batter : 5 Yolks, 33g Sugar, 65g Oil, 70ml Water, 8ml Vanilla, 100g Cake Flour ( I used Plain flour)

1) Method as per normal chiffon. Pls divide cake batter into 6-7 portion and add colourings before adding the meringue colour by colour. Put each colour gently and level out.

3) Cool upside down before slicing.
