Busy Day

So I know I haven't been keeping up the blog as well as I should. It seems between work, studying for my pilot's license, and my million other hobbies, I can't ever find time to sit down and write a blog entry.

Recently (since July) my husband has started brewing. He's moved up to all grain brewing in the last 2 months, and I've taken this as an opportunity to expand my baking horizons. Last brew day I made spent grain peanut butter cookies and bread. The cookies were great, and the bread went in the trash. I left it in the oven for 3 hrs, and it would just never cook all the way through...

Today I made 3 things. Spent Grain Chocolate chip cookies, spent grain raisin muffins, and spent grain bread (take 2). The muffins are already baked and cooling. I got a little overly ambitious and tried to substitute flaxseed for some of the butter, and they didn't setup quite right. They are tasty though, and I think I can tweak the recipe so they look normal too. :) Bread is in the oven right now, and the cookie dough is in the refrigerator. Once it's all baked and cooled I will take some pictures and post them with the recipes (if they turned out alright), and the final verdict!
