Just want to hop on and say ....thank you. I became very ill two weeks ago and spent 9 days in ICU. Thanks to you I had biscuits, pie dough, and pizza dough along with tons of prepped foods in the freezer when I came home. It was a life saver. I am 68 and live alone. So don't ever think what you do doesn't matter Becky, because it saved me.

I love that you keep it real and don’t edit out things like saying you’re making it for the oven, forgetting the sugar, or dropping a muffin. I think that is one of the reasons you are the only channel that I never miss a video. You show real life and inspire us to try new things, and if the pancakes are too dark, or we don’t have the correct ingredients, it’s okay to shrug and chalk it up to a learning curve, or adapt and try a substitute ingredient. Thank you so much for inviting us into your kitchen. It’s amazing all the skills you help us learn and the joy you are bringing back into the kitchen for me❤

That's how I was taught ! Carrots zucs anything bananas to be used up Pecans in the muffins and sprinkled on top. No sugar we used homemade applesauce.!

All the time I have been watching you, that's the first time I heard you dog bark. They are the best doges ever. You see them walking around, but I never heard them.

nutmeg and mace come from the same tree. mace is from the outer aril of the seed, and nutmeg is the dried seed kernel. The first pancakes are usually darker because of the extra oil on the griddle. The rest should come out better.

I am disabled and my family get some of our food from Food pantries and I don't always know what to do with some of the ingredients. Watching you has gotten my brain moving about looking for recipes that include ingredients that I don't normally cook. My family love pumpkin pie and we have a can of pumpkin in the cupboard. I already was thinking about doing breakfast for dinner and making pancakes tonight so I think I am going to look up this recipe and make pumpkin pancakes!

I make something similar, called squash confit. I cut the zucchini in thin slices and lay dem a little overlapping in a pansheet. Drizzle a couple of tablespoons of oil over, chopped garlic and prefered herb (I love lemony thyme, gives it freshness). Put a parchment tightly against the zucchini and then bake in the oven (forgot the temperature, guess at 347 F) for almost one hour, take away the parchment paper and let it roast a little, keep an eye on this moment. Keep it in the fridge for up to a week. Delicious on a sandwich, as side for meat, fish, veggie dish...suits everything.

Do you ever substitute applesauce for the oil? It makes cakes and muffins so moist!

I’m allergic to squash in all forms so I can’t eat most of these things, but I still watched every minute! I make banana bread oat flour pancakes every week and bake them in a quarter sheet pan, and cut them into squares, it’s much faster than cooking individual pancakes. I make a cream cheese topping for them. They freeze really well.

Hello Becky I just started watching your channel! I love watching your channel! ❤

A tip for your lovely muffin pans: if you put a bit of water in the empty muffin cups (that you didn’t have enough batter to fill) it will keep your pan from warping on the bottom. Those carrot muffins look delicious.

💖. You have the best view around your homestead. It’s stunning!!

Becky, these recipes looks so good! I’ll try these pancakes sometime. Since carrot cake is your favorite cake, try making a carrot cake where you blend the carrots with the wet ingredients then mix to the flour (use a good quality flour so it doesn’t brown it). Then top it with a chocolate type of frosting (not regular frosting) that it crackles. It’s an amazing combination and taste. I can give you my family’s recipe if you’re interested. 😊

Everything looks so good! I’m looking toward summer harvest time to do some preserving!

I purchased a stove like yours recently. The stove came with a grate in the middle but I ordered the griddle that will enter change with the grate. I use the griddle so much I never put the grate back in. You might want to look into getting one. It’s very convenient. I enjoy watching you cook and look forward to new videos every day.

Zucchini is great added as a layer in lasagna and also in the filling for stuffed shells. I've added it to quiche also. It's very versatile. Great way of adding vitamins! And sort of hiding them!
