FAQs about Breads & Breakfast Treats
-
While both breakfast treats pair perfectly with syrup, their batter is not the same. Waffle batter is typically thicker with more sugar, butter and egg that helps it hold up and not stick to the waffle iron. Both waffles and pancakes are similarly fluffy, but waffles have that crispy, golden brown exterior. The batter for pancakes, also known as hotcakes, has more milk that yields a soft, cake-like texture.
-
The perfect muffin is both moist and dense. A cupcake on the other hand tends to have more sugar and fat, giving it a soft, spongy texture and sweeter flavor. When you make cupcakes you beat all the ingredients together to yield a smooth, uniform batter. For muffins, the dry and wet ingredients are mixed in separate bowls then combined, resulting the uneven, cracked tops we love about muffins.
-
You might be using too much banana, resulting in excess moisture. If your bread is heavy in the middle or looks undercooked, try adding more flour next time or watch the size and quantity of the bananas you add. If the recipe calls for 2 medium bananas, don’t reach for 2 large bananas as that will increase the amount of moisture in the batter.
-
Try applesauce. You need an ingredient for binding and moisture, and applesauce can do the trick. To replace an egg, use ¼ cup of applesauce and an additional ½ teaspoon of baking powder to what is called for in the recipe.
