THE VANILLA BEAN BAKING
BOOK BY SARAH KIEFFER IS FULL
OF RECIPES THAT CAN SIMPLIFY
RECIPES.
CONGRATULATIONS ON THE BOOK,
YOUR BLOG AND INSTAGRAM, IT'S
SUCCESSFUL.
I TRY TO FOCUS ON THE BAKED
GOODS.
MY SHOPS, PHOTOGRAPHS ARE ALL
ABOUT THE BAKERY.
YOU DO THE PHOTOGRAPHS
YOURSELF.
SELF-TAUGHT THERE AS WELL?
I HAD TWO LITTLE KIDS, SO I
STAYED HOME FROM WORK AND GOT
BORED, NOT BORED FROM THE KIDS.
NO MOTHERS ARE BORED.
THAT'S FOR SURE.
BUT LOOKING FOR ANOTHER
THING.
I MISSED BAKING.
I BAKED AT A COFFEE SHOP ALL
THROUGH COLLEGE.
THAT'S WHERE I LEARNED TO BAKE.
IF YOU FOLLOW THE RECIPE
IT'S FINE BUT IF YOU MIX IT UP
A LITTLE BIT IT CAN BE
CATASTROPHIC.
IF YOU KNOW YOUR BASE
RECIPES REALLY WELL, THEN
THAT'S WHEN YOU CAN PLAY.
BAKING IS FOR -- BAKING IS
BEST FOR THE SCIENCE INCLINED
AND OCD.
YOU'LL MAKE GRANOLA FOR US.
YES.
IN MY BOWL I HAVE FIVE CUPS OF
OATS, BROWN SUGAR, SUGAR AND
SALT.
IT'S VEGETABLE OIL, MAPLE SYRUP
AND VANILLA AND YOU COMBINE IT.
I NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT MAKING
MY OWN GRANOLA LIKE THIS.
IT'S NICE TO MAKE ON -- TO
MAKE AT HOME.
MY KIDS LOVE.
IT YOU CRAN ADD WHATEVER YOU
WANT TO IT.
NUTS, DRIED FRUIT.
GRANOLA IS EXPENSIVE.
YOU HAVE TO STIR IT UNTIL
IT'S COMBINED PRESIDENT THEN
YOU DIVIDE IT INTO TWO BAKING
SHEETS AND SPREAD IT OUT
EVENLY.
WILL IT BAKE INTO THE BIGGER
CLUMPS?
YES.
I LIKE THIS LOOSE SO I STIR IT
THE WHOLE TIME IT'S BAKING BUT
IF YOU LIKE THE CLUMPS, STIR IT
MAYBE ONCE OR TWICE.
AWESOME.
TALK US THROUGH SOME OF THIS.
LET'S START OVER HERE.
IS THIS THE SCONE THAT ALI ATE?
RECIPES ARE IN THE BOOK.
YES.
I LOVE THAT LITTLE BIT OF.
YOU PIPE IT ON.
CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES.
ORANGE CRANBERRY POUND CAKE.
OH, MY GOODNESS.
MINT CHOCOLATE BARS AND
CLASSIC CHOCOLATE CAKE.
I SPENT A LOT OF TIME ON THAT.
IF YOU COULD BAKE ONLY ONE
THING, WHAT WOULD IT BE?
I LOVEMAKING SCONES.
THOSE ARE TOUGH, TOO.
SO VERY GOOD.
WELL, CONGRATULATIONS.
THE BOOK IS AVAILABLE
EVERYWHERE?
TOMORROW ELECTION DAY.
SO YOU AN EITHER COMFORT BAKE
OR --
I LOVE.
