Okay so!! Iām kinda on a mission to clear out the insides of my kitchen since Iāve hoarded so many cans and tins and jars and spices and things that I ought to use emā so I made oat milk and some bread (Iām a vegan oops) and so uh I thought Iād give you the recipes if thatās something you fellow goblins, gnomes and fae are interested in!!!
Bread (vegan friendly)
Ingredients:
1 & 2/3 cup of luke warm water
2 & 1/4 tsp of fresh or instant yeast- I always use fresh since itās a lot cheaper and works pretty much without fail. Plus itās an excuse to go to my bakery (itās called moss and sons... come on)
1 tsp salt
2 tbsp of vegan butter/margarine for the top- you could use oil but I really think butters better for this bit.
2 tbsp of vegan butter/margarine (I use flora) or if you really donāt have any just use oil
1 tsp & 1 tbsp sugar or maple syrup if thatās your thing
4 & 1/2 cups of all purpose or bread flour
Okay so youāre gonna wanna get half your water and mix it with your yeast and sugar until youāve got it all dissolved up in there- allow it it chill for 5-15 minutes till itās foamy & fizzy
In another bowl youāre going to want to mix your salt, flour, rest of your sugar and just pop your fat in there too- then add your yeast and water mix!
Kneed it for like 10 minutes till the whole thing sticks together & leaves the bowl alone a bit. Oil yer bowl, cover and leave for 45 minutes some place warm.
Once thatās done rising punch yer bowl of dough down till itās all nice and compact then split your dough into 2 halves (thatās right- this makes two loaves) and shape into logs or round lumps or rocks or whatever you fancy- I popped one of mine into a loaf dish and the other just a blob heh.
Youāre gonna wanna pop these fellas onto a tray (make sure you grease it first) and cover it & leave it for another 45 minutes in that warm spot. Turn your oven to 190C 10 minutes before you gotta pop em in- then bake for 25-30 minutes till golden yada yada.
Once theyāre out youāre gonna wanna get em out of any pans ASAP so you can brush that melted butter on top so they stay nice and soft!
Boom. Bread. Real goblin food.
Oat Milk
Ingredients:
1 cup of rolled oats
4 cups of water
1-3 dates
A pinch of salt
So this is hella easy you just want to put your water, salt and dates into a blender until the dates are literally pulverised
Then add your oats, please make sure you donāt over do the blending or else you get this weird slimy consistency & itās just not nice.
Strain through cloth, paper towel, tea strainers, sieves or whatever else you can get your claws on and pop it in yer fridge. Make sure to compost any remains!!!
