Other bakers have a strong claim to being the best. Also, subjectivity is pretty significant here. Bakers have different styles, in what they like and how their desserts are.

[@futurestartsnow785]

Every time lol

[@nadiahassan569]

​@@SS_DT Maybe! Once upon a time, I really thought I could get much closer to the "best" recipes or ingredients, or the best that I could attain or whatever, by searching like crazy or testing a lot. True story, I spent more than 14 hours looking for a birthday cake recipe for my boyfriend a few years ago. Yet, over time and baking more, I came to realize how much subjectivity matters. I have never come across a singular, definitive "best," but found several great recipes having notable strengths and suiting certain occasions. Claire is an incredible baker and communicator, but I find Sally's Baking Addiction is often good at pleasing children and crowds. Stella Parks' frostings are killer for people with a discerning palette, but they taste too much like butter for me. Claire certainly has a style when it comes to baking, and it may not be as amenable to children, milk chocolate lovers, etc. as Sally Baking's Addiction.

[@michaelbiggs4313]

My love turned to obsession when Claire said "If you need to, eat some of the raw dough, and then chill the rest." I had already decided to make a double batch of the brittle so I could eat half of it before the cookies.

[@lss8713]

I basically ate a whole batch of the brittle before I even got to making the cookies! Lol

I didn’t think I needed oatmeal cookies today but now I’m making oatmeal cookies.

[@whitealliance9540]

Chop up a snicker bar and put it into the batter. I made some oatmeal cookies this way the other day but I ate the dough raw ( apple sauce recipe) i got too excited amh. Made enough for 10 cookies but only cooked 3.

[@kiniean]

Update: I have finally finished prep on the cookies. I’m slow I know, in the fridge they go! Tomorrow I will put them in the oven! Side note: please be careful durning the brown sugar stage. It made a pop sound and it freaked me out 😂 keep a cloth near by for protection

Claire casually pulling out her homemade vanilla extract is the biggest flex I've maybe ever seen.

[@nadiahassan569]

Is it? The great Stella Parks challenged the idea that homemade vanilla extract offers more than the artisan stuff. "The resources, expertise, and technique that go into high-quality, artisanal vanilla extract is far beyond what even the most competent chef could accomplish at home, resulting in a product that's well worth the price." www.seriouseats.com/2019/12/diy-vanilla-extract.html

[@kalei49]

in one of her ba home videos she explained that it's basically used vanilla pods thrown into a jar with leftover vanilla extract from the bottle if she has it and some alcohol

[@roblarssen249]

I think for her it's more of a way to reduce waste by reusing vanilla pods than an active attempt to flex

I'm a broke college student with no food processer. I used a blender to grind my oats. I had it on low and pulsed it with just the oats in and every couple pulses I would take the pitcher off the base and shake it to get the oats from the top that didnt blend mixed in. Blending up the brittle was a bit harder but I just added a little at a time and it worked pretty good. You can use a blender but don't line your pan for the brittle with foil, lol.

[@colettetav4416]

@@Johnny-ci8mw i thought the batter was a bit salty (not overly) but once the caramel in the cookies melted in the oven and they came out I honestly thought they couldve used a touch more.

[@CptPatch]

Normal person: Oh, I measured wrong. I guess I'll just make slightly smaller cookies. Dessert person: I guess I need to break out the scale and mash cookies together until they're perfect.

[@kathleeninkansas1770]

She's going with 2 oz volume at first then trying to hit 2 oz weight when baking. confusing for some

[@hunterhenryk]

This is the way.

[@senormoll]

Honestly I don't know how a professional baker confuses 2oz of volume and weight. Like maybe your cookie dough is supposed to weigh exactly the same as water, but probably not. I'm guessing she means 2oz by weight judging by the final size, so a 2oz scoop won't really help anyway. I mean really you can do any size you want, just keep an eye on the oven and make them all the same size.

[@Chemeleon15]

@@senormoll it happens a lot There was a baking competition at my school(part of ACF preliminaries) and the instructions, said "scale them to be 2oz" The judges didn't write them, so they didn't know if the instruction meant "use a 2oz scoop", "weight 2oz of dough" or "the finished product must be 2oz". All of these are plausible options, as the first two, would be about maintaining consistency in size, while the last involves understanding how much water(by %) is lost when bake goods are baked. I chose to use a 2oz scoop and still won the competition. We actually did have more explicit instructions for our Baguettes and they needed to be scaled so the resulting baguettes were 11-12oz. in order to do that, you have to scale them up to almost 14oz.

[@michellewoo8047]

@@senormoll That confused me too. If I see a baking recipe that says use "2oz" of dough I would 100% interpret that to be by weight. It seems like she even confused herself lol

[@praniti294]

there’s a huge flaw in this recipe. claire doesn’t account for the huge amount of pecan brittle you’ll eat before you get a chance to put it in the batter.

[@pianodjr]

I know! 😂 I have to make another batch of that anyway because it turned out kinda gritty. Guess mine got a bit crystallized. Not sure what I did wrong. But this way I can eat the first batch. 😅

[@marielim7439]

I just made the cookies today and the pecan brittle was borderline addictive

[@haayechels]

omg these were truly THE BEST oat cookies I’ve ever made and so worth all the steps. I don’t have a food processor so I used a blender but one ingredient at a time. The oats did fine but my pecan brittle got a little stuck and then started to become almost like pecan butter. Simply added it to the wet ingredients and it still turned out amazing! I was only able to refrigerate for about 6 hours? They were still wonderfully chewy and bet would’ve been better if I had more time to chill them longer.

The fact that in every one of these videos something unexpected happens and Claire has to improvise, makes the recipes and the concept way more relatable than any other food content. Thanks Claire!

Claire Saffitz using her platform to uplift others: QUEEN!

These are INSANELY good. I make them all the time. Totally worth all the equipment and steps. They freeze really well, so it's easy to pop a couple in the oven and have freshly baked cookies.

[@jenniferkosmen6723]

Omg, Claire!! This was the FIRST time I’ve ever made caramel, and I DID IT!! I was grinning ear to ear when I realized it worked!! Also, cookies are currently chilling in the fridge and am going to bake them first thing in the morning. I CANT WAIT!!

"Kinda looks like concrete." Technically, concrete is any coarse aggregate held together by a binder. So it IS a concrete - the brittle and oats are the aggregate and the rest of the dough is the binder.

I made these cookies today and they are SO SO DELICIOUS! Things I did differently - 1. Browned the butter for almost twice as long 2. Used nutribullet 3. Lowered the amount of sugar Thanks Claire! It’s the best cookie I’ve made!

I love how she introduces other cookbooks written by poc female authors at the end of every video! Especially considering how the whole BA Test Kitchen saga fell apart.

It's not too late! Jump on that baking bandwagon & make yourself some delicious Claire cookies!

[@Hannahbeckett894]

I made these from the article that came out a couple weeks ago - and you make it look so much easier! I think the benefit for me now is seeing what you meant by the colours for the butter and the caramel. These cookies are incredible warmed up with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top! Edited to add: to mail cookies, I saw someone wrap two cookies together in saran wrap (2 to each little bundle) and then put some padding in amongst them inside the container. That helped keep the cookies from rattling to crumbs!

[@neiht20]

Just made these cookies. 10/10 would recommend, this is now my favorite cookie recipe!

[@shamaramaynard2897]

These cookies are the real deal. I just finished a batch after closely following the instructions with one substitution (toasted almonds for the brittle instead of pecans). The results are deliciously flavourful cookies! Do not hesitate to try them. They are worth all the steps.

[@tyrant5616]

I love that her kitchen is real, maybe more accurately to say, it is imperfect like every kitchen of every person I have every met. The 'I can't find this so use this instead' stuff is great and putting things on the trash can because well...it's a flat surface and sometimes you need to improvise. I hope that when Claire 'upgrades' to another kitchen/location she doesn't loose this part of the show that lets us see what to do when you don't have a staged chefs kitchen and also to feel like we are in her kitchen watching her really cook and not just showing us how everything is perfect all the time like so many other channels make us feel.

[@kiwiwhispers]

I don’t know why I love the animated intro so much. It captures the relationship between Claire and Felix so well. Like she knows he’s a little mischief maker jumping up all over the kitchen is all “bad kitty”, but when the cameras aren’t rolling you can tell he probably gets away with it a lot more, like in the last shot. Well done to the animator being able to bring that to life like that.

[@recoil53]

But it also ignores the other cat that Claire doesn't talk much about. So it does capture the relationship.
