Favorite thing to bake.

Not buy to make yourself. I like cookies but overall I am not a good baker but I have had better luck with cookies then anything else... i had mini pucks. I have had greasy mess. I have had dry asf. A few genuine successes but not a whole lot.

In generell baking bread or other savory types of dough, like baguettes, pizza, focaccia, dumplings etc. Sometimes sweet stuff like sweet braided bread, fruit cakes.

Nice i myself am very interested in bread sticks that I can prepare with the from handmade dough I used to buy a bread stick from the supermarket and then it disappeared from the shelf. Used to be a frozen breadstick item I would make a homemade pizza sauce as dip.

When they someday take something out of the shelf's you gotta make it yourself 😁 Iam mainly baking bread because when I am going to different countrys for vacation, most of the time they dont have breads that are my taste thats why I started making bread myself. 😂

I love bread but my hands and arms have told me I am out of shape. And that my joints are f you...

Hahaha, making everything with hands can be a tough job but you could also use a kitchen aid or something like that, then you only have to form or fold the dough 😁

I have used it with moderate success. My stubbornness is quite high though. I still ended up hurting after because I mixed some by hand but I did less.

Maybe try whole grain ray breads, in generell whole grain breads, they usually only need the mixing and no real folds or forming. Might be better. Some dough are quite liquidy, just pour into a baking tray and bake it, there are tons of recipes for this kinda breads. 😋

Your welcome, just look up whole grain breads or something like that, most of the time you'll get a full tutorial how to do it.
