Experienced cooks always experiment when preparing baked goods.
Therefore, it makes sense to analyze several ingredients that can be safely added to flour during baking to obtain a delicate taste and unusual aroma.
Expert of the online publication "BelNovosti" Yulia Arkhipova , a cook and fourth-class baker, told how to do the right thing.
Vanilla sugar or extract
Adding vanilla sugar or extract to flour will give the products a unique aroma and subtle taste. Vanilla goes well with almost all types of baked goods, from biscuits to cookies and pies.
Milk powder
It also adds a light milky flavor that complements sweet baked goods beautifully. Adding 1-2 tablespoons of milk powder for every cup of flour can greatly improve the quality of baked goods.
Cardamom and cinnamon
These spices are especially good when combined with fruit pies, buns and cookies. Of course, you should be rational when adding them, as they can significantly affect the taste of baked goods.
Lemon zest
Pairs well with biscuits, muffins and pies. It makes sense to use a fine grater to remove a thin layer of zest from the lemon. It is important that the zest is a minor addition, and not form the flavor.
Dry cream or creamer
These ingredients enhance the creamy texture and make the products more airy. You can add 1-2 tablespoons of dry cream to the flour to achieve the desired effect.
Nut flour
Makes baking more nutritious and interesting. Replacing some of your regular flour with nut flour can make pies, cakes, and cookies more flavorful and delicious.
Coconut flakes
It can be added to flour for making muffins, cakes and cookies. Coconut flakes add tenderness and a light flavour that goes well with chocolate, fruits and nuts.
