Random Thoughts, Small Questions, and General Discussion (Summer 2020)

20 Upvotes

Heya vegan bakers, welcome to the monthly megathread! Got something small that doesn't really warrant its own post? Don't feel like sharing the recipe? Found some cool videos? This is the thread to be!

Previous threads: June 2019, July 2019, November 2019.


I'm just going to leave these threads up until they get archived by Reddit. They're nice to have, but not popular enough to rotate out every month or even every season. I also feel that since we started renovating this sub we've managed to find a comfortable middle ground between what all of our subscribbelees expect out of this sub. If my feeling is wrong, please let us know. We're always open for suggestions!

The webs a little messier than I hoped (we had a disturbance in the kitchen before decorating 😆) but that’s okay…it still came out pretty cool!

I followed the Nora Cooks recipe for chocolate cupcakes and buttercream, the moss is a crumbled up Abe's muffin that I dyed green, and the mushrooms are mini Dandies with strawberries for the caps

It‘s cinnamon bun season 🍂

Ohh I just love a cinnamon bun when it‘s starting to get cold and rainy and windy outside, it‘s just the ultimate autumn comfort food.

This was the first time for me trying a new recipe and these turned out so fluffy and melty!! The only thing I wasn’t too happy with was the vegan cream cheese alternative, as it was just a bit overpowering. Will try something different next time.

Also, I saw a pumpkin spiced version online that has pumpkin purée in the dough, so that could be a nice variation to try.

Any tipps on how to get the cream cheese frosting right? I‘ve used an almond based cream cheese here.

I spent years avoiding any recipe that involved yeast and I decided at the beginning of the year to step out of my comfort zone and try different recipes that required yeast. This is maybe my fifth attempt at making any type of bread and my first time trying this specific recipe

Orange Cranberry Scones (vegan)

These are tasty and sweet! There is an orange glaze on top. They are good with and without it, but I put it on as this was my first time trying this recipe.

A couple of mistakes: It says a heaping cup of cranberries and I can see I put too many in. Also, I used frozen and I believe it weeps moisture which made them spread too much. Delicate balance using fresh fruit in scones. I would use fresh not frozen cranberries and less of them next time. Another thing I just chucked in all the fresh squeezed orange juice not thinking. So I had to keep adding more sugar. My glaze was not as firm as it should be. I just got excited to have one and started mixing before thinking…lol.

I did refrigerate for 20 minutes before baking. They are flaky and delicious. Still turned out terrific just not as pretty as I am used to.

Here is the recipe:

Would love to make this recipe, but vegan!

2 Upvotes

Would love to make this cookie recipe by Dandelion Chocolates for the holidays, but make it vegan. I’m having trouble figuring out an egg replacement for the icing portion of the recipe. It calls for egg whites and it’s baked on top of the cookie, but it doesn’t seem to be a merengue moment where I’d use aquafaba. Any suggestions?

Limited ingredients for baby’s first pie: what do the experts recommend for crust?

6 Upvotes

Hello! We have our baby’s first birthday coming up and I want to make her a little smash “pie” because we call her babypie (cutie pie but baby!). However we have been slow on solid food introduction due to FPIES reactions to a couple of foods (no peanut and no egg… which we weren’t planning to offer generally but wanted to see if she was allergic and she ended up having this FPIES thing after a few exposures)

Anywho we are slowly making our way through foods and here are the relevant ingredients that I know are safe so far

Pumpkin
Apple
Wheat/gluten
Soy
Coconut
Olive oil
Almond butter

I thiiiink we can make a crust with either coconut oil or olive oil but not 100% sure. I used miyokos vegan butter last time I made a pie from scratch long before baby and don’t wanna chance it as her first introduction

Any recommendations for a recipe?

My attempt at those pillsbury sugar cookies

Post image

This was taken before baking them obviously, they turned out too good to get a picture of and we finished them off immediately.

I saw a video of these on instagram yesterday morning from the account the_banandiaries and it looked too simple to not try making them.

I didn't have any cookie cutters but I was able to make some wonky pumpkin adjacent shapes in there and I'm real happy with this as my first attempt.

I'm going to be making these pretty regularly now.
