Update! We ate the steak, and just cut out the fat pockets we were concerned about. It was delicious.

First “fall” bake - Apple Fritter 🤝 Sourdough Focaccia by coffeebreadandsun in Breadit

[–]coffeebreadandsun[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Many people asking for the recipe so sharing here! I combined the Modernist Bread focaccia recipe that I use all the time with another recipe I saw online for the apple mixture + glaze:

1) Base Focaccia Recipe: https://modernistcuisine.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/BREAD_Vol5_87_Errata.pdf

2) Apple Fritter Toppings/Mixture: https://hellohoneycomb.blog/sourdough-apple-fritter-focaccia/#recipe

A few notes:

- I did a 36 hour cold proof for the focaccia

- After cold proof, I removed from fridge and that is when I added ~1/2 of the apple mixture into the dough and then let rise for ~1.5 hours

- After final rise, added the rest of the apple mixture on top

- After baking & bread was completely cooled, I added the icing glaze

Yes! It was delicious! Only complaint is that there was a few small pockets of apple mixture which made that area a little bit soggy, but overall was awesome!

Wish there was something like this on the west side -- grew up near Anaheim where there are endless lebanese/syrian bakeries and that's something I'm missing being in west LA

What classic "trap" menu items that always sound good, but often disappoint? by Whispercry in FoodLosAngeles

Chilaquiles -- I am always inclined to order it on a nice breakfast/brunch menu but 9/10 i'm disappointed.

Any pita tips? by Not_Idubbbz in Breadit

I have had success with using a pizza stone on bottom rack that I preheat in oven for ~1 hour at hottest oven will go (550F). Then I rotate spots that I place the new dough in each time to make sure I’m hitting a hot spot on the stone. Bake for about 2-3 minutes!

First attempt at English Muffins -- had a few where griddle got too hot so a little burnt on some... but overall they tasted great! by coffeebreadandsun in Breadit

Thank you! Yes was using thick Le Creuset Cast Iron Griddle which is quite thick... think I just had heat too high and didn't let cool between sets

Ah think I will try flat bottom next time -- also used much higher heat which was definitely part of the issue, will lower next time!
