Hey, friends! If you were one of the first few hundred people to watch this, I was missing a few links from the description box. I think I have correct that, and there should be some links there now for some of these recipes! Sometimes this mom is just busy and my mind is running a mile a minute; and sometimes it runs right on by something and I have to double back later and get it done. Thanks for your understanding! :)
I appreciate you showing us how the second loaf of bread came out! That’s great especially for us beginners to see that sometimes it comes out a little bit different, and that it’s okay.
LOVED THIS! I particularly appreciated you showing the second loaf that “fell”. Too often we are shown perfection and that not only increases stress, it’s simply not realistic. Many thanks for this!!!!! 🍞
I still make the bread recipe I got from my grandmother 45 years ago. Huge recipe that makes about a dozen loaves and uses about 5 pounds of flour. I give a few loaves away and freeze the rest. One mess and bread available for a long time. It uses potatoes, really good for sandwiches, toast and either dinner rolls or cinnamon rolls. Homemade noodles are yummy too.
@@SeeMindyMom Same. And then years later I heard you're not supposed to eat raw cookie dough that is eggless...that one had me scratching my head. Come to find out you're not supposed to eat raw flour either... and there it is.
Thanks for watching, Billie! Sometimes convenience is worth it when we are in a busy season. I don’t fault people (or myself) for choosing that. But when I have the time, I like the taste of these things better from scratch. 😊
Love your posts. A quick note regarding being frugal. You can save on electricity by baking the oven full. You said you only have one bread pan, but you can bake in other shapes. A round loaf in a pie pan, etc. Also, Dollar Tree has aluminum bread pans in regular 9 X 5 and also mini loaves for about 33 cents a piece.
I tried them a few weeks ago for an extreme budget meal plan for my family and a viewer there suggested that I overtaxed the dough, so this time I mixed them by hand, and it was so much easier to roll them out!
Awesome! Great video! Many people do not realize how much money you can save by not using mixes for everything. The taste & quality are so much better from scratch too!
It seems expensive at first, if you have to stock your kitchen all at once, especially when buying many spices... but yes, mixes are VERY expensive comparatively.
Butter here in BC Canada is usually around the $5 per pound , I get it in sale for $3 and stick up and I usually have at least 12 in my freezer . That’s a great price for flour , I buy it at Costco. You can get 20 lb bag of Robin Hood ( name brand I think is only Canadian) on sale for $8 on a great sale but usually $9.99 . I have my grandmothers starter which is over 100 years old .
@@SeeMindyMom th-cam.com/video/2FVfJTGpXnU/w-d-xo.html this is a fabulous video . I add a pan of water to my bread baking and it is amazing the difference.
I loved this vid. I’m watching this a year down the road (4-3-2022) so I thought I’d check prices - Aldi is $1.65 and Walmart is &1.56 That loaf that didn’t rise much would make great French toast sticks. 😃
Great! Just think, people, for the price of two loaves of bread you get pancakes, noodles, and biscuits. 3 freebies with just a little bit of of work. Whoops, I forgot the muffins, yep, even a desert!
So true. I tried going down to 4 nights at work so I could do more diy with food,laundry soap,etc. but they made me stay at 5 because there weren’t enough people. Our wages supposedly went up $3-$4/hr. so I’m hoping that’s true,it’ll make the 5 nights a lot easier to deal with & now that my son doesn’t have virtual school I’ll have time & energy to try to do these things. I’m trying to save up but also live a healthier & less wasteful life.
Thanks, Alisha! Things don't always work out the way we intended, especially in the kitchen! That's okay, and that bread was still delicious! We ate it as toast and loved it. :)
Crazy how easy it looked to make the Egg Noodles - I will have to try it - great video. What about showing what to with A) 1 can of Salmon and different meals to make using that B) different meals featuring Meatloaf, eat it once then have Sandwiches, use in Salads certainly over Spaghetti, to top Salad , in a soup - a cook once kind of video C) Different meals throughout the week using Eggs D) Have viewers vote on 5 ingredients out of a list of say 15 and show how to use those 5 in different ways
Love 💕 all of your videos! Definitely a frugal mom. Love the frugal fit mom and her videos,but your right up there with her! The thing you do with food to show others how they can stretch their dollars is awesome keep it up I can’t wait to see your next video.
Yes indeed I would totally be interested to see what else you come up with using another bag of flour! I loved this video ❤️ Like watching Betty Crocker do her thing...😉
So, I have been thinking about making bread recently just because of all the preservatives in store bought (plus it tastes heavenly and makes the house smell great). So, this is just what I needed to see. Thank you!
Sabina, thanks for the tip! I'm betting it will be on sale a lot of places in the next month or so. I usually find great prices on flour during the holidays.
I will say, these did not last long...lol! The kids already ate the muffins and half the pancakes, and the noodles I used in a soup this week. Time for another batch!
You should try Artisan Bread in 5 Mins a Day. Super easy. Can use less yeast (especially if you add sourdough starter). And not finicky at all. Most forgiving bread recipe I've ever tried. I have 3 kids and we're always running to and fro between extra curriculars, social events, and church, but I can still make a few loaves of fresh bread every week because of the 5 minute bread recipe.
Loved this video. I'm not planning on running out to do this anytime soon but I have always been curious how far a bag of flour could go. Thank you so much!
This was really a fun concept! Just think, all that you made for the price of just the breads, or maybe the batch of muffins (didn’t notice how many you made). One of the only good things about the past years’ madness and stay at home lockdowns - I found time to start making all our bread again.
love love love this tutorial/challenge. Idea......???? Can you show us how to make our own yeast starter??? now that would really make it cooking from scratch hahaha.
I'm new here and love your vlog... Ty for showing that baking isn't always perfect but, its still edible. So, don't be hard on yourself, be proud you baked it. I've been curious how much can one bake / make out of a 5lb bag of flour. Thanks 😊
Watched my granny make noodles for dumplins and she liked them paper thin, so she’d roll out about 6-8 inches really thin then slice that, then roll another 6-8 inches kinda like on the corner of the ball. Instead of rolling the whole ball all over the counter, but her counter was probably smaller too.
Hi Mindy! Where can I find the video that includes the recipe for no yeast bread? We call it your baking soda bread. I looked for it in your cookbook but didn't see it there. Thanks!
Thank you for sharing I never knew you can make homemade egg noodles I would go out and buy a tons of pasta noodles at the store🤣 yes yes please make another video on using flour please. I'll be in the kitchen more someone in my household has covid so self quarantine right now. Thank you!
Hi Mindy! Yep I have all of that! 5# of flour makes a boat load of cookies at Christmas time too! What a cool loaf pan. I have never seen one of those. Happy Thanksgiving!
Not sure if you just did this for the purposes of the video but if you buy a one pound bag of yeast on Amazon and stick it in the freezer it saves you so much money on yeast and lasts for years. It also doesn’t take up much room at all. It’s maybe five inches tall by a four wide.
I hope they build one near you, soon! The flour at Walmart was a pretty good deal, too, and I"m betting a lot of grocery stores will put it on sale this month because of the holidays. :)
Mindy, love your channel and look forward to each video - bread looks delicious- btw I’ve seen on other channels a couple of recipes that have used raw flour without any baking - I believe it was frosting - was surprised to see - and agree it shouldn’t be eaten raw
Did you make that second video with 5 pounds of flour? I have not found it on my list. Our family has German history and my mom made all kinds of flour foods. I have an antique cookbook from the Midwest which has a whole chapter on "Mehlspeise" which are types of flour foods with various dumplings and noodles. They also had pet names for family favorites. We had a fried dumpling with cabbage or other vegetables on Fridays that my mom called "Mousies."
@@SeeMindyMom They sure are a lost art. My mother-in-law said she got a copy of the Settlement Cookbook from a family friend when she married. I happened on a copy of it some years later. It has a chapter on those flour foods also. The Settlement Cookbook was interesting. According to the story that I heard, apparently, there were a bunch of civic minded people in the Midwest. I believe it was in Milwaukee. The organization helped people who immigrated in the late 1800 and early 1900's. They had a women's group who wanted to publish a cookbook to help the immigrant women. The Men, who were the officers voted No. So, the women went ahead on their own and got a publisher. The cookbook was very successful and remained in print for many years. It actually made the men a lot of money.

I think the raw flour warning is for making edible cookie dough, you have to heat the flour in the oven first.
Yes, I was not thinking of raw batter. I was imagining people eating spoonfuls of flour or something...lol!

Subscribed & would like a second video if it hasn’t already been made. Also saved this video to Pinterest so I can try it out hopefully one day soon.
Thanks for this video but you didn't show how you made the biscuits.
How do you store your bread?
I haven't been to Walmart for over a year.
When the flour is raw it contains bacteria. The warning is because some people like to eat the dough before bake it (ex. Cookie dough).
The second loaf of bread was over proofed thus it could not hold its structure.
You didn’t leave the noodles to let the gluten develop?
❤
People eat raw cookie dough all the time; the second loaf proofed for too long probably, that’s why it didn’t rise as well
