Kartoffelbrot!

So I have made german potato bread using a hairy bikers recipe! On a side note, I am LOVING the hairy bikers bakeation program at the moment, a wonderful insight into baking and history across europe - and lucky for me lots of bread and soup recipes that are vegan (or veganisable)!

I must admit I haven't done it justice, the recipe said 220 degrees for 35 miniutes but I took it out after only 25 it was very close to burnt around the edges there, I think it needs a lower heat.

However it tasted GREAT, it was really yummy and had a wonderful moist texture that I adored. It is meant to last well, however I ate mine within two days so who knows!

I will certainly make this again! Great enjoyed with a hearty homemade vegetable soup for lunch :)

Cinnamon Bread

Soooo today I made cinnamon bread! Yum! I've never made this before, and I used the recipe from the veganyumyum book.

As you can see from the left, I put the loaf in a loaf tin which is just blasted out of! It was massive, I was very impressed.

To help the appearence I think next time I will roll it out long and thin on a baking tray, rather than let it spill out the loaf tin!

Full of cinnamon, and just 5tbsp in all of dark brown soft sugar, this bread is sweet and tasty... I can't wait to try it toasted.

Cookies!

Yum yum yummy cookies! These are my FAVOURITE cookies EVER. I used chocolate cut up because it's cheaper here, so they don't look so neat.

The recipe is from Vegan With A Vegance. Not a cookbook I generally reccomend but I do like the baking recipes. These are 1/3 bigger than the book reccomends... I think it's meant to make 24 dozen and I made 18. But I like them this size... even a little bigger! I was going to coat them with chocolate but I'm not sure they need it.

Anyway they taste fantastic! Delicious.
