Any Home Bakers Here?

ronotti--how thick are those pancakes? I wonder if you could layer them like strawberry shortcake with berries and cream?

If you want them to be thick, add less water. They do rise so experiment.

The pancake batter was a bit thick yesterday.

I'm a home Baker! I own a cake company outside of Dallas and one of my major selling points is that I bake with my own free range chicken eggs!!!

I made a bunch of cookies for a road trip to keep us from spending money at the gas stations on junk food.
Made chocolate chip, of course!
Oatmeal and oatmeal with choc chips.
I made peanut butter with choc chips and cashews,
and I made raspberry lemonade cookies.

That is a very good idea! What about dehydrated fruit too?

When I was in High School and we went on a Band trip, I baked a batch of Brownies and three of us had them for breakfast each day.

@fowlmouthgirls I bet it is a great selling point. Personally I really never knew what a difference fresh eggs made in baking until I got my own flock.
Would love to see some of the cakes you bake. ( love your BYC name!)

@OnlyOrps those look wonderful. A great idea to Bake 'N Take and much better than the junk food at quick stops along the way.
Raspberry Lemonade sounds so interesting, would you post the recipe?

Sorry a cooking ingredient question ( not baked)

I have a recipe calling for canned Italian Diced Tomatoes. I thought it meant diced tomatoes with seasonings already added. DH bought the only Italian sounding brand and they have no seasonings but are packed in tomato juice not water.

Any opinions on what would be Italian Diced Tomatoes?

Gonna add spices and use what he bought anyway.
