Any Home Bakers Here?

Still keeping the furnace off here by virtue of the wood stove. I like to see how late in the year we can keep it that way. I have the thermostat set at 62 right now. I won't let it get that low. I just haven't changed it to 65 yet!

We always had wood and a woodstove going. LOVE IT. I set the thermostat at 68
and never touch it. I DO MISS THE WOOD STOVE. WHEN my family visits...they'
get it going. We always have wood. It is my favorite Heat. I am not able to handle
wood burning. DARN.

Melt 2 Tbsp butter, let cool somewhat.
Add 1/4 tsp salt & 3/4 cup discard.
Spread on a baking sheet. Try to make a consistent thickness across the sheet.
Sprinkle with another 1/4 tsp salt.
Bake at 325
Length of baking time depends on how thin the dough is spread. After 10 minutes of baking, I pull out of oven and cut portions (see my pics above), then return to oven. Mine usually bake an additional 25 minutes after that but keep a close eye so they don't burn.

Cutting them isn't necessary. You can also just break them into pieces after baking. I prefer to cut them though before they get brittle for more even pieces.

Flavor can be plain, as above, or however you like. I've added parmesan cheese, tomato-chicken boullion, Italian herbs, garlic & onion.... try whatever you like.

Thanks for the recipe!

I have started the wood stove too, just bought 2 tons of beech briquettes, should be delivered in the beginning of November, our oak wood what is left of it needs to be split, and I can’t do that right now, gas and oil prices are steadily rising, I am so glad we have wood stoves in our house

I have my pellet stove running in the living room right now. Went from 64°F to 72°F after I started the fire.

Just dropped to 39°F outside.

Do you use parchment paper, or greas the baking sheet so that they don't stick?

Oh, man I will be trying this soon! THANK YOU!

Oh, yes! I should have mentioned that. Parchment paper or silicone mat. I use the mat and make use of the border lines as a guide.
(I edited the recipe post to include that.)

IF (and that is a BIG if) I recall correctly, there was a discussion some long time ago that you could get a pellet stove. Did that ever happen?
