So smallest one loves Bake Off.
She's become more than a little obsessed and constantly pesters to bake anything and everything. Cooking I can do, I quite enjoy it, most people convincingly say they enjoy what I feed them, but I'm not a baker, my one and only attempt at pastry left me with something I could break windows with.
I'm starting to think I threw in the towel a little too early.
The beauty of cooking is that knowing which flavours work, it's just a matter of combining them. Baking is far more precise which is why I've possibly steered clear of anything more complicated than a crumble or bread pudding.
Today things change!
I need beginner recipes from you lovely folks and an equipment rundown, I do have a hand whisk but that's really it in terms of baking equipment, I need an experienced hand to guide me through what I need to purchase to have a proper crack at this and what I can get away without for now.
I'm guessing tins, scales and an electric whisk will be top of the list?
