True story: I have cried over browned butter 🧈
It took me many sticks of BURNED butter to learn what I was looking for. And once I figured it out, it was totally a lightbulb moment for me 💡
My two BEST tips:
1️⃣ use a light colored pan, if possible, until you’re comfortable with the stages— this helps you see the browning happening more easily!
2️⃣ understand that the time between “brown” and “burned” is about one millisecond long 😂— always have a bowl ready to go so that when you spy the perfect color, you can immediately stop the browning 🛑
Brown butter is great for everything from vegetables to baked goods. My favorite way to use it is in my chocolate chip cookies and in cream cheese frosting 🤤
Want to learn how to brown butter with ease? Comment the word “YUMMY” below and I’ll send you the link to my tutorial as well as the recipes for my cookies + frosting right to your DMs! 💌 #freshaprilflours • https://freshaprilflours.com/how-to-brown-butter/

Yeah, my recipe really is that good…
This is your sign to branch out from the back of the bag because life is way too short for mid chocolate chip cookies, right?? 🍪
Hi! I’m Lynn from Fresh April Flours and I’ve been teaching folks on the internet how to bake from scratch with repeatable and reliable results since 2014.
I have also converted thousands and thousands of people to MY version of chocolate chip cookies, and they’ll all tell you that it’s worth the switch 😏

Where are my “I could never do that” bakers at? 🧐
I’ve been teaching people on the internet how to bake since 2014. And I’m completely self-taught, which means I’ve learned by doing and failing so that I can teach YOU how to get it right the first time.
So if you, like I, have ever thought “Swiss roll cake? You want me to ROLL CAKE?” you’re going to love this recipe ☺️

These homemade bagels are this month`s Bake Along recipe, and when I tell you that they are worth the work, I mean it 🥯 #fafbakealong
But guess what? The work isn`t really all that much. In fact, I built in time for multiple retests of this recipe and didn`t need any of it. Homemade bagels are so much easier than they appear to be, and my favorite part is the ability to make so many flavors with just one batch of dough 🙌
You might be wondering... What is the Bake Along? It`s a monthly "challenge" around these parts, and here`s how it works:
1️⃣ bake the assigned recipe (or alternate)
2️⃣ snap a pic
3️⃣ include a video for one bonus entry
4️⃣ leave a review (as a mega favor 💙)
5️⃣ get entered to win $100 to YOUR CHOICE of merchant
It’s that simple 🙌

Let me introduce you to your new favorite yeast bread 🍞
And to officially become friends, here’s a little about me!
Hi! My name is Lynn, and I’ve been teaching people on the internet all over the world how to bake from scratch since 2014.
I’m a self-taught home baker, who just wanted to be able to make my (then) future kids’ birthday cakes, and now I teach people how to repeat the recipes from my kitchen in theirs so they become confident in their baking skills.
So if you love to bake with exact science, regardless of your skill level, you’re in the right place 🫶

My longtime reader Jan asked me to recreate her mom’s butter pecan cake from childhood— and this one might be my favorite cake I’ve ever made 🤩
Jan’s mom used to doctor up a box mix with pecans and top it with a loose almond icing, but Jan wanted something reminiscent of that while adding in her grown-up preferences. We landed on a stacked layer cake with cream cheese frosting, and the result is buttery, soft, a little salty, a little sweet… Basically butter pecan ice cream in cake form 🤤
This cake started with a reader request and a mom who knew what she was doing and turned into a cake that got THIS review just last month:
“Um, this cake was AMAZING! My daughters had so much fun helping me make it and we all absolutely loved it. I will definitely be making this again.” — Nicole
Jan’s mom, we owe you one 🤎

Once I replaced the granulated sugar with powdered sugar in my drop sugar cookies and then continued to test for perfection, I never looked back.
These cookies are soft, tender, and melt-in-your-mouth buttery perfection 🤩
⭐️ TO BE CLEAR: I am not suggesting you do this with a recipe that has not been written to accommodate this swap. If you want to try it, it is at your own risk! ⭐️
As a recipe creator, I’m here to make scratch baking simple and feel less intimidating. Every home baker should have “the basics” down pat.
Chocolate chip cookies, sugar cookies, chocolate cake, brownies, a simple yeast bread… You get the idea.
And that’s why I’m here! To help you nail the basics so you can create a plethora of desserts that impress tastebuds without making a day’s work out of getting it done.
In fact, check out this 5-star review from Dee from a couple months ago:
“I have baked cookies, cakes, cupcakes, desserts for over 20 years for my family of 5. I have tried many sugar cookie recipes and they were always dry and tasteless. All said this is my go-to sugar cookie recipe, the only one you need. This is the only one that works for me. I appreciate the recipe and the notes.” ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Want more super simple recipes with all the notes so that you have success the first time? Be sure to follow @freshaprilflours and share this with a friend who also loves cookies! 🍪

Don’t let the name fool you-- Irish potato candy does not contain potatoes and isn’t actually from Ireland 🥔 🇮🇪
This homemade candy actually originated in Philadelphia 🔔 and only LOOKS like a potato! 🥔
Here`s why you`ll love them-- they`re a no-bake coconut cream cheese confection rolled in cinnamon traditionally made for St. Patrick`s Day ☘️ They`re a favorite in our house basically all through spring 🌺

Spoiler alert! 🚨
Turns out, Irish potato candy isn’t actually Irish nor has anything to do with potatoes, but this is another thing we can thank Philly for alongside cheesesteaks, soft pretzels, hoagies, and Tastykakes (to name a few).
These Irish potato candies are made from cream cheese, sweetened shredded coconut, and powdered sugar, and they’re rolled in ground cinnamon so they really do look just like potatoes 🥔
Give these easy no bake candies a try for yourself and watch them disappear with a snap 🫰 (seriously— they’re SO GOOD).

Spoiler alert!
Turns out a tube of pizza dough can turn into THE EASIEST garlic knots you’ve ever made.
SAVE THIS POST📍Give them a try for yourself and watch them disappear before your eyes 💨
Here’s what you need:
• 13 to 16 ounces pizza dough
• 6 Tablespoons unsalted butter
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• ½ teaspoon dried oregano
• ½ teaspoon dried basil
• ⅛ teaspoon salt
• 2 to 3 Tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
Here’s what you do:
1️⃣ Preheat the oven to 400ºF (204ºC). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat, and set it aside.�2️⃣ Cut the pizza dough into 12 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a 6-8” long rope. Allow to rest while you prepare the garlic butter.�3️⃣ In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and the garlic, then allow to cook for 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat, then stir in the oregano, basil, and salt. Set aside.�4️⃣ Form each rope of dough into a knot: grab each end separately and form the dough into a knot by crossing the ends over, tucking one end under the other, and looping it through the hole so it pokes out of the top. You can tuck the other end under the bottom of the knot or leave it out. Place formed knot onto the prepared baking sheet.�5️⃣ Brush each knot with the seasoned butter. Bake knots for 15-18 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and brush an additional time with remaining seasoned butter, then sprinkle each knot with grated cheese. Serve immediately with marinara as dipping sauce or as a side.
Feeling a little wild? 🤪 Make your dough from scratch! My recipe for that one is included in the post (pssst… It’s simple).

Hello or goodbye 👋🏼 ...

Buuuuuut the joke is on you because it actually IS simpler (and easier) 😮 And here’s why ⬇️
It’s more accurate: a gram is a gram is a gram… Is a gram! No matter how firmly packed your measuring cup is, this is still true ✅
It creates consistency: if I make my chocolate chip cookies today, I know they will turn out exactly the same if I make them tomorrow. Which I might, because they’re so good 🤭
It’s faster: scoop/pour, zero, next ingredient please! 🫰
It requires less cleanup: no measuring cups? SAY LESS! 😅
It makes doubling/halving easier: what’s half of 1 and ⅜ cups of all-purpose flour? No clue. But I know that half of 165g is 82.5g 😎
It eliminates guesswork: just how firm IS firmly packed? Your guess is as good as mine. But I can tell you 1 cup of light brown sugar, in my recipes, is 200g, so just throw that in your bowl and move on 🤷♀️
If you’re ready to start having more accurate and consistent bakes, be sure you’re following me at @freshaprilflours, because if there’s one thing you need to know about me, it’s that I’ll always ask “but did you weigh your flour?” 😏
