Y'all got any recipes for some decent baked goods if your low on ingredients? Got plenty of flour and sugar both brown and white , butter but not extracts like vanilla and didn't think to add any to the shopping list . We still have some boxed stuff ( muffin mix and some cake stuff basked my first cake the other day, a red velvet that I think cam out decent) But that stuff is....egh I mean they happily eat it but I can feel my grandma staring down at me with shame for feeding people boxed baked goods ( she baked all the stuff for church and she was like me with traps and guns but with cakes )

Anyhow what y'all got ?

Used to when I would go south I got my first taste of sugar pie and they say its easy to make but no recipe.

Sugar cookies

You got the basis for pastry and pie crusts if you had a filling.

Got eggs you can make custard but that usually calls for a splash of vanilla.

Dumplings if you got some broth or stock to cook them in.

Make them dump cake if you have any canned fruit or pie filling.

1 can fruit pie filling
1 cup butter
1 box white or yellow cake mix

Dump fruit in pan and spread
dump dry cake mix over top evenly
dump butter over cake mix

bake 325 till cake mix browns

serve with whipped cream or ice cream ( Carmel if apple)

If you keep canned apple pie filling and some frozen pie crusts you could make fried apple pies super easy. Or make pie crust and fresh apples with cinnamon sugar and egg wash then fry

got any molasssis

maple syrup ?

you could make a cookie with butter , brown sugar , sugar , eggs , flour and add some syrup for the flavoring


you could make drop biscuits it you have oil , milk , and flour

what about pan cakes you can make those with the same

got any fruit or canned fruit ? make a good cobbler with canned pears , milk , butter , flour

If ya got Peanut Butter, make cookies :-)

Wife just informed me you can replace vanilla extract with equal amount of bourbon. And I thought she was a good Christian girl, lol.

Southerners will always eat biscuits. With or without the gravy. Everyday.
Good pie or cobbler never gets thrown out.
Those guys start putting on pounds, they'll blame it on you though.

Sounds like you're making yourself a home there on the boat. Finding someone who's a decent cook and doesn't mind doing it isn't easy to come by.

When you order. You should consider boxed brownie mix like Pillsbury and put walnuts in it.

Cake mix and a can of coke (various cokes and cake mix). Just those 2 ingredients mix and bake according to box.

Make sugar cookies.
If you have chocolate and oatmeal make no bake cookies.
If you have nuts make a brittle or candy nuts.
Carmel is easy to make but can be dangerous.
Soufflé can be made with few ingredients.

Most vanilla extract is made with vodka the vanilla beans sit in vodka for 6+ weeks. Shake every week.

Peanut butter cookies

1 egg 1 cup sugar 1 cup of peanut butter. Mix real well spoon a a greased pan bake 325 for about 10 minutes.

If you have evaporated milk pralines are a possibility, not really a baked good but I bet they’d eat it.

If you got a bunch of folks to feed beans are cheap and easy and can be made up a bunch of ways.

Y’all. There’s a bunch of great ideas here for fast easy use of whatever is in the cupboard. Very good, guys….

Self rising flour, some water. A pan an some crisco you can fix pawn bread as we call it

Good bush food for hundreds of years.The canoe brigades 150 years ago made their frybread in the pan after frying their salt pork.
