    I am creating a similar recipe for peach marmalade that I will post soon. I don’t know where you saw the recipe–what paper were you talking about and when was this?

    i saw your recipe for strawberry/rhubarb jam in the newspaper and it was wonderful! Do you have any other jam recipes like that one?

    I saw your segment on the cooking channel about gingerbread cookies. I would love the recipe. My son wants to make them. Where can i find the recipe?

    I don't even have that recipe typed up, much less converted to no-knead. But I'm sure that someday I will get around to it. I'll e-mail you if/when I ever get it done and posted. In the meantime, I hope you enjoy the other recipes in the book.

    It would be too much to hope for – a Kneedlesly Simply recipe for croissants, but do you have a recipe that you would share? I am willing to try difficut! I think!

  7. Nancy Baggett says

    David, it's fine to work the extra flour in by hand, if that works best for you. I found that those who didn't like or know how to knead didn't usually want to do it, but it works very well.

    I don't have a no-knead croissant recipe. The very fine traditional recipe I have is rather time-comsuming, so I didn't feel it was appropropriate in a book with "Simple," in the title! I've never tried to convert it to the kneadless method, though I may someday. Of course, it would still require the traditional shaping.

    I have been enjoying the Kneedlesly Simply recipes a great deal. I find that I prefer to hand mix after the first rise as this allows me some contact with the bread and improves my "feel" for what Iam doing, and stiring with a spoon to tough if I need to add flour.

    Do you have a recipe for croissants? Would need more effort than the Kneedlessly recipes. I had some made from scratch ones at a B&B in Quebec last week that were to die for, and would like to try my hand.

    Hi Nancy,
    My family and many friends are great fans of your Fudge Brownie Supreme recipe – this is the one I make for everyone. After a few years of making them, I had a thought about using a 24-count mini-muffin pan for the recipe, but I'm not a good judge as far as how long to bake them, or if you thought this would be a good idea at all. These brownies never lasted long in my house – they'd be gone before I knew it. What do you think?

    thank you so very much for posting the strawberry-rhubarb freezer jam recipe. I have never been a fan of the cloyingly sweet jams and have been searching for a recipe such as this. I was always afraid to experiment with the lower sugar Sure-Jell as it warned of set failure if exact amounts were not followed. So I dutifully followed the directions but thinking the jam was still to sweet for my taste. Enter your recipe…I made several batches and prefer it to plain strawberry jam. Today I picked more rhubarb and the first of my blackberries and it made the most wonderful jam! Thank you again!

    This is a very nice site and easy to use. I am new at this, but I am learning! Thanks for the great recipes!

    What a lovely idea! I am a bit overloaded at the moment, but will think about the best way to do this. My sister has also given away a lot of jars of Going with the Grain mix. She also keeps a jar on the shelf so she can make it for her little granddaughter (who has come to prefer only homemade bread!).

    Nancy, To introduce my friends to your Kneadlessly Simple book I have given away many "going with the grain bread kit". It would be helpful if you could post a printable version of the "Going with the grain bread recipe (using mix)" it is difficult and I get a poor copy from the book on my printer. This way I could include a pretty recipe with the jar.

Welcome to KitchenLane! It’s a comfortable place where I create, thoroughly test, and photograph recipes for my cookbooks and blog. All my recipes are original, not adaptations from others. I trained as a pastry chef, so many offerings are desserts and baked goods. Some are also healthful, savory dishes I contribute to healthy eating publications. My recipes are always free of artificial dyes, flavorings, and other iffy additives, which I won’t serve my family—or you! Instead, dishes feature naturally flavorful, colorful ingredients including fresh herbs, berries, edible flowers, and fruits, many from my own suburban garden or local farmers’ markets. Since lots of readers aspire to write cookbooks, I also blog on recipe writing and editing and other helpful publishing how-to info accumulated while authoring nearly 20 well-received cookbooks over many years.
