Any Home Bakers Here?

I haven't ever used fresh squash in place of pumkpin for bars/bread but I have so much that I need to. Anyone have any suggestions as to if Acorn or Delcata would work better-texture and/or taste? I have about 20 to use up

Bakers good morning one and all!

67 sunny 89% humidity feels like 65 rain 1%.

Good baking to all.

Have a great day!

I baked cookies over the coals in my cast iron Dutch oven while we were camping. It made them quite delicious with that extra bonus of smokiness! (Some broke because I didn't pack a spatula, and had to use a fork).

Wow, those cookies look amazing! Chocolate chip, I presume?

I made a bunch of sugar cookies yesterday; both regular (wheat-based) and gluten free. So that was something.

Most of the baking I've been doing, however, has been making various breads. I love making bread.

I've also made a couple of coffee cakes in the last month or so.

One of the nicest threads here on BYC.

We do chat a bit, but if you have questions about anything to do with baking, or cooking in general, usually someone has some info to help out.

Thank you, I'll be sure to bring my questions here!

Yep! We bought a tub of Nestle chocolate chip cookie dough to bring camping. When baked in a normal oven, I am not really a fan of the flavor (it just has a weird taste), but over the coals was really good!
