2277: Alton Brown emerges from suspended animation with a quest: become the greatest chef in the wasteland. He forms the Brotherhood of Kosher Salt, a group dedicated to preserving culinary science and protecting the great pantries of the wastes. From a mysterious broadcast station, populated only by himself, he sends pantry raiding recipes to the impoverished populace, allowing them to bring taste back to their lives by using what remains of the nation's food supply.
This would be an AWESOME scenario for a Good Eats episode! It could even have an animated intro scene showing your background situation! It would be AMAZING!
He said in a previous video that he only had to care about them in good eats because of corporate stuff and what not. He actually specifically recommends a brand of tin foil in one of the previous videos.
That was hilarious!! "This is a TH-cam video and not Food Network, so I can use brand names. REYNOLDS WRAP. Heavy. Duty. Reynolds Wrap. foil!! Do NOT use any other brand." 😂😂
@@midlifeinprogress He's right! I'm a retired chef who is the same age as Alton, just 10 days younger, and I have tried every brand. Reynolds is the ONLY decent, actually *heavy* duty, brand of foil. Lately, we have become big fans of Reynold's Barbecue foil. It's every bit as strong, if not a little _stronger,_ and it's silicone coated, just like parchment paper, and NOTHING sticks to it! It's AWESOME foil for lining a pan before making a sticky casserole like chicken and rice or a tamale pie! You just can't use it for acidic foods because, well, it's aluminum and aluminum breaks down when it's in contact with acids. That's why the foil covering the lasagna pan always comes out of the oven with little holes in it, and, surprise!, the missing aluminum is in your food. Gotta put a sheet of parchment paper between lasagna and aluminum foil. ;-)
Would like to see him on Chopped. "10 minutes left chefs." "I'm concerned Alton hasn't even started cooking yet, he's still telling us the history and the wrong ways to cook the secret ingredients."
Considering the cost of vanilla extract these days, the bottle's staying over the bowl while I pour at my house. If some extra goes in, call it "vanilla boosted".
Did you know you can make vanilla extract with 3 whole vanilla beans and a bottle of vodka? It takes a long time, but it works wonders and tastes amazing! What you do is put the vanilla in the bottle, then close it and put it in the back of the pantry for two weeks. It gets stronger as it gets older too, and it doesn't need to be refrigerated!
@@marianmacfarland8701 I was going to suggest this too! I am currently steeping 3 different sets of homemade vanilla extract. Go for the Grade B vanilla beans cause they're actually much more suited for making extract AND their vastly cheaper than the fancy grade that you get in the grocery stores. I bought my vanilla beans off ebay. I have one jar steeping with bourbon, another with vodka and a third with glycerin for non-alcoholic purposes. The recipes I found suggested steeping for at least 6 months and it's even better at 12 months. I shake the jars at least once a week and be sure the beans stay submerged. My mother is going to be so thrilled with getting homemade vanilla for Christmas!
@@westcoaststacker569 I've only ever bought vanilla beans once - about 20 or 25 of them. I keep them in one of those old-fashioned kind of canning jars with the latching lid and gasket. I've never been addicted to anything, but I imagine it must be something like the absolute joy of opening that jar and inhaling. As far as I'm concerned every other scent in the world is at best a distant second. I use them mainly for when I make rice pudding.
This was a surprisingly great recipe. Not that I'm surprised Alton Brown has a good recipe, but that it's a gluten free PB cookie that holds true to the flavors and textures I've loved since I was a kid. Two thumbs up!
I have always enjoyed Alton Brown he is my favorite TV chef but now that he is doing these videos on TH-cam I love him EVEN MORE!!! Its a whole new side of him and it is amazing to see. Keep it up and Thank you for helping us in these crazy times.💖
“At this point it could be refrigerated for.....eh you know what? Who cares? We would just bake cookies right away, wouldn’t we.” This is why I’ve grown to like Alton. He’s sarcastic, he’s real, he’s the everyman. He knows 99% of people don’t want to wait to chill their cookie dough, so why bother saying it? 😂
Thank you for reminding me of being a kid and watching Good Eats now that I'm self isolating halfway across the country from home. I am definitely making these today.
Thank you so much for doing these videos. My husband is a surgeon, and he has been watching Pantry Raid and Quarantine Quitchen to unwind. Yesterday morning when he got home from an overnight shift, he made a batch of these cookies and your onion dip. He has never cooked before. Thanks again for giving us something to look forward to during these times.
Thanks for the science you add to your program. Your fun, quirky presentations are a bright spot in our day !!!! It is why we return time and time again!
Thank you for these videos. They've been a daily needed distraction that keeps me staying focused on my love for cooking. Thanks for keeping me creative.
Alton taught me how to cook. I appreciate this man so much. I got him to “like” one of my food reviews a few months back. I died. Lol. Thank you, You Graceful S.O.B.
And here I am back to this wonderful easy recipe to make cookies for a friend with celiac disease. I know this is an old you tube post, but Alton, if you have any other no flour recipes for cookies, I would be eternally grateful! I have tried other recipes, but most are not very good.
His chewy, oatmeal cookie and sugar cookies all have gluten free versions on his website and various books. Don't try the brownie recipe with gluten free though, the mid way removal kinda screws up gluten free brownies. but if you yourself can enjoy wheat flour goods, try the cocoa brownies. made them for my in laws and they lost their collective s**t for those things. Happy baking!
Tried these cookies the other night at like 2am, turned out excellent! Was worried they would turn out strange without some of the more traditional ingredients, but I got so many compliments on them! Really soft and extra peanutty. Thank you so much for this quick, delicious recipe.
Got a similar one I learned as a freshman. Nutella cookies: One cup Nutella, one cup flour, one large egg. Roll out 2 tablespoon balls, flatten, and bake at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes. You're welcome.
@@melvalentine1962 Plain, all-purpose. The egg is the leavener. Though I would be very curious to see what self-rising flour would do. Haven't tried that.
@@haruyuukipanda Tried it with Nutella. They were nice but harder and dryer than the PB ones. Think they could be better if some of the Nutella was substituted for butter.

Im at a point in my life where im beyond cookies..i add a cup of flour n a lil milk to this for cake..milk/powder suger icing 1:10 ratio..thank you alton for this butterless recipe
Thanks, Alton! Peanut butter cookies are DIVINE! In fact, the ONLY gift my step-father ever wants from me is a double batch of my special peanut butter cookies that have a mini Reese's cup pushed into the center, no fork prints, before baking. I have my own recipe that I adapted from a recipe in a cookbook that was printed in 1968 called Blue Ribbon Recipes, County Fair Winners. It was published by Favorite Recipe Press of Louisville, KY, (Library of Congress Catalog Number 68-17251). The book has no listed author or editor, and is comprised of recipes that won blue ribbons at county, regional or state fairs all over the United States in the 50s and 60s. (It's pretty obvious by the old-fashioned style from the 40s or 50s complete with glossy photo inserts, that the book is a reaction to the tremendous shift society was making at the end of the 60s.) I actually won first place using an oatmeal cookie recipe from that book in the junior division of my own county's fair the summer I turned eight, which would have been 1970. I wanted my blue ribbon, but my grandmother told them I wanted the $3 cash prize instead! I was mad at her for years after that! I eventually forgave her because I grew up and understood that she became an adult and got married one year before the great crash of 1929, and I got married in 1984, so I understood her much better then. It was _really_ bad for her. She had to send her baby (my uncle) to live with her mother, she had to steal a chicken so they could eat, etc., so she was extremely cash (and food!) oriented for the rest of her life. She had no way of knowing that the blue ribbon, a fancy rosette model no less, would have meant so much to me, even years later. I would have put it in the same frame as my culinary school diploma, if I had it to put in the frame. BTW, not only is Alton exactly ten days older than me, but he graduated from culinary school the year before I did! At least if Wikipedia is right. In fact, I started the year he graduated, so we were both culinary students at the same time-- and in our mid-30s, too!
Yum! I was wondering about pushing a thumbprint in the center, instead of the fork thing, and adding a dollop of chocolate in the center for the same idea! ❤🥜+🍫❤
I got into cooking as a teenager because of good eats and 18 years later I'm still putting my kitchen to use everyday. Thank you for instilling a love of food, culture, and science across multiple generations. You truly are a gift to humanity.
@@discipleofshaun5252 It depends on which vanilla you are using, too. If you're using Cook's vanilla meant specifically for cookies called Cook's Cookie Vanilla, you absolutely *DO NOT WANT EXTRA!!!* It will overpower everything else and make the cookies unappetizing because it's just too strong.
All my, half dozen or so, children are foodies. Teaching children to bake, cook and clean up is not making them "do the work". During these times it could also be a way to keep them occupied for a bit and sneak in some math as well. The finished cookie could be considered the grade on the assignment.
I think cooking & baking is a great way to learn math (it doesn’t feel like teaching/learning; it’s just DOING!), especially if you double or half a recipe! Great fraction building!!!
So funny. One of my cousins went to a grade school in New Hampshire where all the classes were cross-disciplinary. Her older brother: “Alice doesn’t have to learn real math at her school, but she can make a wicked muffin.”
The wax will also melt onto your cookie sheets and make a HUGE mess you have to SCRUB off! Just say NO to waxed paper, unless you're making a children's craft project.
@@masonpellazar6543 Yeah, I got that, but my Dad was a marine and he would never eat crayons, so I just don't find it funny. But I'll try to be more careful about whom I share my own observations in the future. Thanks for reminding me that not everyone has the ability to learn from the mistakes of others.
dude ... sometimes i forget how much i love you ... i've seen your live shows and just miss your presence in my life ... thank the gods for TH-cam! thank YOU for being you and sharing yourself.
Just found this video series of the pantry raid 😊. Love them all and thank for all that you do for your fans .please stay safe because a world without Alton Brown is not a world I want to live in lol .
I'm so glad you resisted the urge to cough at the end there. And I'm very thankful for this recipe! As someone who will be working from home in isolation for at least 2 months now, these scratch recipes are extremely helpful. Even though I don't cook a lot, this quarantine has really helped motivate me to change that.
Thank you. I will be making these for the kids. The "ALL DAY LONG" resonated with me on a spiritual level. I'm so appreciating these great pared down, low key episodes !
My husband made these immediately after watching this video. They came out great and we didn’t have any vanilla extract either. Thank you Alton for these videos during the quarantine!
Thank you! I used your recipe to help vamp up my kids made up recipe, he's 8 and since I put bread on the heater to rise, he thinks he can do that with candy lol this was honestly the best combo PB cookies, with random added things (chunky Pb w/ left over Easter candy) I have ever come across. My Aunt watched your shows while she watched me growing up and I appreciate your simplistic, easy, and awesome recipes!
I'm not sure why exactly but when these notifications pop up instead of 'pantry raid' I read 'panty raid'. Sigh, I've been home alone for too long.....
Just stumbled on this. Amazing production! Amazing everything! Sound effects, text, everything. Must be the Food Network putting this together remotely. Incredible job, thank you for doing this!
Oh I used to make these when I was trying the low fodmap diet to stop myself from being sick all the time...these are a great treat if you can handle peanuts. Though my recipe was three ingredients and I wouldn't smash/smoosh them down as I like the doughy texture you get if you leave them in the ball form. These cookies are about the only thing I can safely make on my own as I tend to burn everything I come into contact with...
I made these yesterday. Best cookies ever! And it’s great they don’t use flour as I can’t find any in the stores. Thanks. More recipes like this please!
This is my favorite recipe from "Everyday Cook". I have a cousin who is celiac, so these make great cookies for her at family gatherings. A couple of variants I've done... 1: Throw some peanuts into my vitamix to make the proper amount of peanut butter, then add everything else as it blends. 2: I'm experimenting with a low carb version, using alternate sweetners. (The pure stuff, not the stuff bulked with maltodextrin. I use a milligram scale for it.) 3: I'm considering making a batch with cream cheese, instead of peanut butter, and maybe all white sugar. I'm hoping to end up with a gluten free sugar-type cookie.
Just finished making these and I absolutely love them! I'm not usually a fan of peanut butter cookies, but these were so smooth and not over peanut buttery. Thanks for the recipe and the entertainment!
I am making these cookies for a third time during this quarantine. I'm not a religious woman, but God bless your Alton Brown. These cookies are tasty and ridiculously easy.
Mary yes he does. At approximately 2:39 “I suggest you make children... “ (gets distracted by a glob of dough on the side of the bowl) “... oh, that’s bad. I suggest you make children do this” Yes, we all know that he was not intentionally suggesting that we go forth and propagate the human species... but we can have a little fun with his awkward pause 😉
Overpopulation is not actually an issue on developed countries. People tend to think it is because of the global statistics, mostly influenced by countries with shitty infrastructures and governments such as China and especially India.
@@TheGameGetterKuzuri You could understand that even in jokes, constructive debates can emerge, and by creating said debates doesn't mean you took the original joke seriously.
Made these but used fresh almond butter instead of peanut butter. Had the almond flour in the fridge, needed to be used up. Delicious! Interesting texture, too. Toothsome without being tough. Thanks, AB!

The quirkiness of Alton is why I have been watching him since I was a kid, I'm 23 now. Dude is hilarious and educational.
Literally. He’s been my favorite probably since I was 3
Ditto! He's like the Go-To Science guy but for food!

Miss watching his show on food network

I'm really enjoying this apocalyptic mini-series you're doing--legitimately, though, I appreciate this, thank you for making it.
One of my favorite things about Alton Brown's channel right now is him just saying brand names.
It's just JIF.... * then tosses it across the room * someone will pick that up. lol
i just love how Alton doesn't give a single flip over brand names with these pantry raid videos.

(It's pretty obvious by the old-fashioned style from the 40s or 50s complete with glossy photo inserts, that the book is a reaction to the tremendous shift society was making at the end of the 60s.)
I actually won first place using an oatmeal cookie recipe from that book in the junior division of my own county's fair the summer I turned eight, which would have been 1970. I wanted my blue ribbon, but my grandmother told them I wanted the $3 cash prize instead! I was mad at her for years after that! I eventually forgave her because I grew up and understood that she became an adult and got married one year before the great crash of 1929, and I got married in 1984, so I understood her much better then. It was _really_ bad for her. She had to send her baby (my uncle) to live with her mother, she had to steal a chicken so they could eat, etc., so she was extremely cash (and food!) oriented for the rest of her life. She had no way of knowing that the blue ribbon, a fancy rosette model no less, would have meant so much to me, even years later. I would have put it in the same frame as my culinary school diploma, if I had it to put in the frame.
BTW, not only is Alton exactly ten days older than me, but he graduated from culinary school the year before I did! At least if Wikipedia is right. In fact, I started the year he graduated, so we were both culinary students at the same time-- and in our mid-30s, too!
Yum! I was wondering about pushing a thumbprint in the center, instead of the fork thing, and adding a dollop of chocolate in the center for the same idea! ❤🥜+🍫❤
*If you want it done right, Alton is the best chef, and culinary instructor ever.*
*And he's a crack up.*
Classic AB right here! This is why I’ve been a fan for 20 years!
I got into cooking as a teenager because of good eats and 18 years later I'm still putting my kitchen to use everyday. Thank you for instilling a love of food, culture, and science across multiple generations. You truly are a gift to humanity.
Thank you for posting this Alton my kids had a great time making these by them self’s as I watched one flew over the cuckoo's nest....
Alton Brown is the MAN. Period.
THIS is the Alton Brown I have been missing!! Welcome back to being fun with food!!
"Don't do it over the bowl in case you spill it".... That's exactly why I do it over the bowl.
trust me, you DON'T want too much vanilla extract
Trust me there is RARELY too much vanilla.
Unless you have shaky hands or drop the bottle..
amnishaw .....”Oopsies!!!” 🤗🤣😂😆
@@discipleofshaun5252 It depends on which vanilla you are using, too. If you're using Cook's vanilla meant specifically for cookies called Cook's Cookie Vanilla, you absolutely *DO NOT WANT EXTRA!!!* It will overpower everything else and make the cookies unappetizing because it's just too strong.
But I love nilla? I like adding just a smidge more than the recipe asks for sometimes~
“Not coughing” got me at the end
:p
"Good news: gluten free" Alton, I am weeping with joy from Celiac heaven, thank you
All my, half dozen or so, children are foodies. Teaching children to bake, cook and clean up is not making them "do the work". During these times it could also be a way to keep them occupied for a bit and sneak in some math as well. The finished cookie could be considered the grade on the assignment.
My youngest has been making cookies. She needs to stop. I can't wear these stretchy pants forever. Or....can I?
I think cooking & baking is a great way to learn math (it doesn’t feel like teaching/learning; it’s just DOING!), especially if you double or half a recipe! Great fraction building!!!
Yea plus it's good to teach kids life skills early. Unfortunately so many kids are lacking home lessons
So funny. One of my cousins went to a grade school in New Hampshire where all the classes were cross-disciplinary.
Her older brother: “Alice doesn’t have to learn real math at her school, but she can make a wicked muffin.”
Raisin' them well.
Alton: "That'd be like making crayons. Very different."
US Marines: "Snacks are snacks!"
ROFLMAO!
Gryle 👏
The wax will also melt onto your cookie sheets and make a HUGE mess you have to SCRUB off! Just say NO to waxed paper, unless you're making a children's craft project.
@@calichef1962 the joke was that Marines eat crayons
@@masonpellazar6543 Yeah, I got that, but my Dad was a marine and he would never eat crayons, so I just don't find it funny. But I'll try to be more careful about whom I share my own observations in the future. Thanks for reminding me that not everyone has the ability to learn from the mistakes of others.
I have these ingredients and I'm craving cookies, it's my time to shine.
e: I made them and ended up getting 11, they're pretty good.
Laying out the ingredients from most to least to memorize it is just so brilliant I seriously can’t get over that
dude ... sometimes i forget how much i love you ... i've seen your live shows and just miss your presence in my life ... thank the gods for TH-cam! thank YOU for being you and sharing yourself.
Thank you for making these videos, they bring me a lot of joy during this challenging time.
Im really enjoying watching Alton become more and more unhinged with each upload
Alton: *pulls ruler out of kitchen drawer*
Me: *unable to find a fork in my own home*
Just found this video series of the pantry raid 😊. Love them all and thank for all that you do for your fans .please stay safe because a world without Alton Brown is not a world I want to live in lol .
I'm so glad you resisted the urge to cough at the end there. And I'm very thankful for this recipe! As someone who will be working from home in isolation for at least 2 months now, these scratch recipes are extremely helpful. Even though I don't cook a lot, this quarantine has really helped motivate me to change that.
I tried to buy flour but couldn't get any. That fact has been quietly stressing my brain for a few days. This video came at the right time.
Hey that's what children are for, CHORES! Well, that what I experienced as a child so I'm just passing it on...
"the cookies on the right will go to the bad children"
*eats a cookie from the right*
Thank you. I will be making these for the kids. The "ALL DAY LONG" resonated with me on a spiritual level. I'm so appreciating these great pared down, low key episodes !
My husband made these immediately after watching this video. They came out great and we didn’t have any vanilla extract either. Thank you Alton for these videos during the quarantine!
Can’t wait for Good Eats: Reloaded Season 2, Alton.
These fun little things are uplifting and comforting, thanks dude
Alton knows that we turn to food for comfort, so he’s really coming through with the at home cooking recipes. Yay.
Love that you have catered to what we likely have in the pantry.👍🏼 Especially when baking ingredients are so hard to find right now.
Thank you! I used your recipe to help vamp up my kids made up recipe, he's 8 and since I put bread on the heater to rise, he thinks he can do that with candy lol this was honestly the best combo PB cookies, with random added things (chunky Pb w/ left over Easter candy) I have ever come across. My Aunt watched your shows while she watched me growing up and I appreciate your simplistic, easy, and awesome recipes!
I have all the ingredients I am making cookies, even thought my children are grown men and leave in different states
Ms. Ivory *Live
Checks out. 😂😂
Perfect. More cookies for you. Be sure to call them and tell them that they're not getting cookies 😁
That just means a lot more for you.
we all deserve a cookie right now
When this quarantine is over, Alton is gonna have a full head of hair and still be in that kitchen.
I'm not sure why exactly but when these notifications pop up instead of 'pantry raid' I read 'panty raid'. Sigh, I've been home alone for too long.....
Nah, it's a deliberate pun.
@@magpiewench Yeah, knew that...just tryin' to have a little fun....
You are not alone, the first time I read a tweet about these videos I read it that way too!
that's not the kinda baking he's talkin bout
Same here. Even made the comment on the last video lol.
Just stumbled on this. Amazing production! Amazing everything! Sound effects, text, everything. Must be the Food Network putting this together remotely. Incredible job, thank you for doing this!
“One person’s packed is another person’s semi-unpacked.”
-me, arguing with my husband over the organization of our suitcase. 🤣
I do it military style, rolling everything. I need two fewer suitcases than she does but it weighs more than all of hers. :>(
Problem is when them made me unload 20lbs at the airport and stow it in a backpack for carry on, then still labeled it overweight.
These videos are the high point of self-isolation- vous etes an ange! Merci! :)
I'm really enjoying the new content, Here's hoping it continues even after coronapocalipse.
Oh I used to make these when I was trying the low fodmap diet to stop myself from being sick all the time...these are a great treat if you can handle peanuts. Though my recipe was three ingredients and I wouldn't smash/smoosh them down as I like the doughy texture you get if you leave them in the ball form. These cookies are about the only thing I can safely make on my own as I tend to burn everything I come into contact with...
I made these yesterday. Best cookies ever! And it’s great they don’t use flour as I can’t find any in the stores. Thanks. More recipes like this please!
Love your sense of humor! Just made my first batch. Thanks for keeping things light hearted.
Spoken like a true parent. It's so nice that someone gets it xD My kids are DRIVING ME INSANEEEE. So...I needed this. Thank you, AB!
measuring like a Canadian, I see -- picking and choosing bits of the metric system when it's convenient...
TheLurker omg. So true. Speed in km. Weight in lbs.
We’re kind of the same in Scotland. Weights in grams, distance in miles.
This is my favorite recipe from "Everyday Cook". I have a cousin who is celiac, so these make great cookies for her at family gatherings.
A couple of variants I've done...
1: Throw some peanuts into my vitamix to make the proper amount of peanut butter, then add everything else as it blends.
2: I'm experimenting with a low carb version, using alternate sweetners. (The pure stuff, not the stuff bulked with maltodextrin. I use a milligram scale for it.)
3: I'm considering making a batch with cream cheese, instead of peanut butter, and maybe all white sugar. I'm hoping to end up with a gluten free sugar-type cookie.
I have been making these cookies since the pandemic. Absolutely the best cookies and my husband’s favorite! So quick and easy. Love them.
Just finished making these and I absolutely love them! I'm not usually a fan of peanut butter cookies, but these were so smooth and not over peanut buttery. Thanks for the recipe and the entertainment!
“Not coughing” lmao I was totally waiting for the cough
Same! 😆
I love that he acknowledged it
I laughed so loud at this I was afraid I woke the household up.
I appreciate a flour free recipe since I haven't been able to get flour in my grocery stores for ... 2+ weeks.
Maybe try shopping at a different time of the day or day of the week.. ask an employee what day the truck comes in. Something that has helped me.
The mania laugh is what i love with Alton Brown :D
I always loved this guy. One of the few shows I missed after giving up cable... the only science class I ever enjoyed so much😀
I am making these cookies for a third time during this quarantine. I'm not a religious woman, but God bless your Alton Brown. These cookies are tasty and ridiculously easy.
Everybody: stuck at home
Alton Brown: I suggest you make children...
Me: o.O
Hey if ya got nothing better to do ig
"ALL DAY LO-all day long."
hahaha
alton brown; “i suggest you make children”
never finishes sentence... now the earth becomes 50% more populated by 2021.
That’s not what he said.
Mary yes he does. At approximately 2:39 “I suggest you make children... “ (gets distracted by a glob of dough on the side of the bowl) “... oh, that’s bad. I suggest you make children do this”
Yes, we all know that he was not intentionally suggesting that we go forth and propagate the human species... but we can have a little fun with his awkward pause 😉
Overpopulation is not actually an issue on developed countries. People tend to think it is because of the global statistics, mostly influenced by countries with shitty infrastructures and governments such as China and especially India.
@@MrLoowiz you could just understand the joke and not take it so seriously.
@@TheGameGetterKuzuri You could understand that even in jokes, constructive debates can emerge, and by creating said debates doesn't mean you took the original joke seriously.
Made these but used fresh almond butter instead of peanut butter. Had the almond flour in the fridge, needed to be used up. Delicious! Interesting texture, too. Toothsome without being tough. Thanks, AB!
Thank you for keeping us entertained and giving us hints how to use what's on hand.
