Juicer Bread Recipes
Baking with Juicer left-over pulp?
I recently bought a juicer and it came with some muffin recipes that call for left over juice pulp. However, I've never really baked before, and some of the recipes had typos and contradictions in the instructions and ingredients. As a result my muffins turned out dry and hardly edible and the worse part is I don't know what I did wrong after following the instructions. Does anyone know of any good muffin, or bread recipes that I can add pulp to, and what the ratio or measurements would be if I decided to add or substitute pulp in any already set recipes?
Anytime I try a search I don't get anything clear or useful!
I am a former chef and have used my pulp when juicing with my Jack LaLane juicer, I have used the carrot, apple and zucchini pulp, for moister muffins and lower fat ones, add some applesauce, use only egg whites, some oil is fine, also let the batter sit so the pulp can rehydrate.
Even add some of the same grated veg, raisins or dried cranberries, something that will keep the moisture from evaporating, also a slower oven, say 325 for 35-40 intsead of 350-375 for 25-30 minutes this allows the heat to slowly cook the muffins or quick breads and keep them moist, brown sugar and honey are also hyrating sucroides, meaning they retain the moisture, that is when cookies made with shortening and brown sugar are moist and one's made with butter and white sugar crisp, there is less moisture in both.

Are All Kitchen Mixers Created Equal? What To Look For When Buying A Mixer
Ignore all those infomercials for fancy (and essentially useless) kitchen gadgets. Instead, you should spend your time and effort on choosing the perfect kitchen mixer. A kitchen mixer is one of those appliances that every serious cook needs. A good stand mixer can save you hours of work in the kitchen doing a huge variety of kitchen jobs. No cook should be without one.
But not all kitchen mixers are created equal, and having a low-quality stand mixer can be almost as bad as not having one at all. Like other appliances, good quality stand mixers are a great investment, as these machines can last for years-- even decades. If you spend the time and money finding the perfect one, you won't have to worry about buying another for a very long time.
There are several things you should look at when shopping for a new kitchen mixer. There's price and quality, of course, but you should also consider things like speed & controls, capacity, attachments, and add-on options.
Speed and Controls
In general, stand mixers have anywhere from 3 to 15 speeds. The more speeds your mixer has, the more flexible it will be in its uses and the more control you'll have with mixing. There are several kinds of controls that come standard on kitchen mixers. Probably the most common is the dial control. This adjusts speed more gradually, allowing you to go from low to high as you choose. You may also find stand mixers with slide controls, pushbuttons (as on a standard blender), and switches. The newest kitchen mixers are controlled with a touchpad, and have a digital display panel. These look great, but are not so different from standard controls. One new innovation in these types of mixers that you may want to opt for, however, is a timer. This has a countdown on a digital display, and will shut down automatically after a certain pre-programmed time.
Capacity
A basic stand mixer will have the capacity to mix one batch of cookie or bread dough. Many other models, however, are sold with two different sized bowls, allowing the capacity to be adjusted to many different recipes. Though standard bowls are generally the size of a medium mixing bowl, kitchen mixer work bowls can have anywhere from a 1.5 to 7 quart capacity.
Attachments & Optional Accessories
Like other appliances, one thing you'll want to look at when buying a stand mixer is if it will do everything you need. A standard kitchen mixer comes with a set of beaters for batters, dough hooks for mixing bread doughs, and one or two mixing bowls. However, many come with extra attachments and optional accessories to make kitchen work even easier. These include paddles, splatter shields, or flat blending rods for mixing drinks.
Many of the best kitchen mixers can be converted into different kinds of kitchen appliances by buying a simple accessory. This kind of stand mixer can be transformed into a meat grinder, a juicer, a food processor, a can opener, or a pasta maker. While these units and their accessories are expensive, they can easily replace almost every kitchen appliance you have.

Dont freak out but Elvis was right. Fried peanut butter and banana sandwich's are soo good. Not an everyday sandy, but its a great pick me up! The ultimate comfort sandy is as follows:
1 tablespoon un salted butter
2 slices of good white bread (I like brioche)
1/2 ripe banana smashed into chunks
2 tablespoons peanut butter (I prefer creamy)
1 tsp good honey
Melt butter in med skillet. Mix pb and honey spread on one side. Spread smashed bananas on the remaining slice. Fry in butter on both sides til golden brown. Good stuff!

I like Sarah Kramer's La Dolce Vegan. She has plenty of bread recipes in there that are awesome. Geoff has a good bread book too. It's not vegan, but we've been veganizing recipes from it and they've turned out great ! He just ordered The Bread Baker's Apprentice by Peter Reinhart on Vegan Dad's recommendation. I'll try to post a review of it once we've tried a few recipes.
