    Unfortunately I don't have time to read previous comments but in Europe where I live food/health authorities consider silicone as non-toxic and save as long as you don't warm it up to more than 200°C (approx 400 F). Only when it gets warmer the material will release toxic stuff. I mostly bake at 180 °C (350° F), so for me the convenience and not wasting food and paper is more important. In Europe food security standards are quite strict so I really trust in those recommendations. And I try to purchase only high quality products produced in Europe.
    I really enjoy your content. Thank you!

      ...In live in Europe too. Now Ireland, originally from Germany. And while I agree with everything you say :)) ... I still would be careful to trust everything blindly that is deemed safe by EU standards and do my research for some things that concern me most. Because there is so much lobbying here as well. ...But yes we generally have stricter, healthier standards accross the bord compared to the US. That's for sure.

    I'm old school NO silicone in my cooking; I use the paper muffin cups and they work just fine and they don't pollute the environment; or if I'm out of paper muffin cups I simply use a little olive oil and use a brush to oil every the inside of the muffin tray. Works perfectly well.

    I buy bananas, peel, cut in half or slices, freeze on parchment paper then put in freezer bag. I like halves because I know how much I need for a recipe. But I use them in banana bread, smoothies, muffins, etc. So you could buy a months worth of bananas! Love the kiddos helping and the baby peeking around your back! Adorable

    I bought a Crofton enamel mini-loaf pan (it has 8 mini loafs built in) on Christmas clearance at Aldi that is unbelievable! A quick swipe with butter or oil and nothing sticks. No liners needed! The muffins come out crusty on the outside and tender on the inside. Makes me want to bake up a storm! Waiting to hear that enamel pans aren't any good either one of these days, but until then, this is my new, go-to pan!

    They have cast iron muffin pans. They are heavy, but easy to use and don't need much cleaning. You just wipe them out with a little salt and a wet cloth. It's a very healthy way to put iron in your diet that your body absorbs better than supplements.

    First of all, you have such a beautiful smile! I am so excited about these recipes. I have a painful bladder disease, and there are very few products I can buy pre-made because of all the chemicals. Because I cannot eat gluten, soy and most preservatives, we have found some ham sold at Costco that is nitrate free and preserved naturally. So I will be making the eggs muffins! One of the few fruits that I can have are blueberries, and I eat them every day.... so the meatballs are a win for me too!! And again, the oat muffins are another recipe I'll be adding too. This video has been such a winner for me!!! Thanks so much! Patti ❤

    I use a standard muffin pan, but plastic of any kind makes me nervous, so I don’t use silicone. Instead, I use the older version paper muffin liners. They work to keep my pan clean and make pulling the muffins out of the freezer easy, as they don’t stick to one another.

    Thank you so much for your recipes and the insights into how you organise the food in your family. I find your videos very calming and inspiring!
    Regarding your concerns with silicine muffin tins: I like to use enamel for baking. It is absolutely food save, it transfers the heat evenly (for larger cakes), the baked dough/cakes come of easily because the surface is so smooth,and it looks very pretty.
    I have an enamel muffin tray from an Austrian company but I am sure there are enamel companies in America as well.
    The downsides are that you have to grease it carefully, its heavier than silicone, it is much more expensive (but will last a lifetime) and it takes more space in the drawer.

    Buy the USA Pans muffin pan. They are a metal pan that have a factory applied silicone coating that is supposedly safe. I bought one and was worried about egg muffins sticking but they came right out. I have since bought their bread loaf pan for the egg white protein bread I make and just a small amount of butter in the corners and bottom and the loaf came right out. Before that pan I always had to make a parchment paper liner which was a total pain.

    Can't wait to try your blueberry breakfast meatballs! I'm lucky enough to live in North Carolina where I have access to two really great fairly local sausage brands with clean ingredients. One is simply pork, salt, spices, monosodium glutamate, sage extractives. No sugar. I don't mind the tiny amount of MSG in there - it doesn't affect my migraines at all. The other is simply pork, salt, spices, sugar. Again, the sugar here is so tiny it shows up in the nutrition info as 0g per serving. And both of these are absolutely delicious! They also don't come in extensive plastic wrappings - one comes wrapped in a heavy waxed paper and the other comes in paper that's plasticized on the back side against the sausage. And both are 1 lb bulk. They sell shaped sausages, as well, but I think they may have other ingredients.
    Having said all that, I do still make my own sometimes (my recipe is different) using ground pork. I think I'll give them a try using some of my purchased sausage - considering trying the extra sage flavor and adding a tiny bit of maple syrup or making a maple cream to dip them for eating.
    About breakfast muffins - I agree 10 eggs per dozen muffins is just right! Same, actually, for my favorite breakfast casseroles. As far as muffin tins and liners go, I've never used them. I'm not even sure what my muffin tins are made of - steel maybe? They've been passed down in my family and I think date back to at least the turn of the last century! They're a bit larger than today's standard muffin cups and have a pretty swirled design with rounded bottoms (still wide enough so muffins, etc stand easily). Anyway, I've always just greased the heck out of them for things like muffins and greased and floured for cupcakes. I do have silicone cups, but use them for candies and other projects where things might be warm (melted chocolate) when put in, but cool quickly.

    I use stainless steel pans now and when I make muffins I use a parchment paper liner, lightly spray them with avacado oil and they don’t stick. I am in the process of removing all Teflon anything from my cooking. Hope that helps! 😊

    I might try some of these recipes! My brother and I have celiac’s disease and homemade, nutritious food is best for healing. He still lives at home and my mom doesn’t know much about CD or nutrition so he pays me to make his breakfasts and lunches every week. I think he’s getting bored of egg casserole and hard boiled eggs so I will probably try your meatballs or something for next week. :)

    I use the silicone muffin cups too but they are a pain to clean in my opinion.
    I prefer to use the If you care brand as well. It also means all items can stay in the muffin cup and it's cleaner for on the go meals and snacks.

    @karengarber8257 Před 3 měsíci +2

    I have been reading that heating silicone is not the healthiest for us as well. Neither do I like my food to come in contact with aluminum. At this time I think the best thing is to use the paper liners. The bottoms can stick but I have found that greasing the bottoms before filling will help the food to release better. A bit tedious but worth it in my mind. 😊

  • @TheJoyfulMom
    @TheJoyfulMom Před 3 měsíci +1

    I use unbleached muffin liners (if you care brand). I have heard about that with silicone a while back so I've always been scared of using it in heat. I've also heard that most silicone isn't pure. If you take the silicone and pinch/bend it and it turns white then it has fillers and isn't 100% silicone. The only silicone that I have found that doesn't turn white when pinched is a spatula from ikea that I use to scrape my bowls. That is the only silicone I feel comfortable using in my kitchen.

    • @FromScratchFarmstead

    As much as I hate cleaning muffin pans, I just grease well, bake, remove, soak, and scrub with a cloth or bottle brush.
    I love all your ideas and I too was so disappointed when I found out silicon was toxic at high temperatures because I used a lot of parchment, especially on pizza night!
    Your recipes and thoughts really encourage me to plan these breakfast foods better. We don't eat pork, so finding good quality ground chicken and turkey is what we need to look for. Store bought turkey sausage looks disgusting.

    • @FromScratchFarmstead
      @FromScratchFarmstead  Před 3 měsíci

    16:24 In 2024, my Costco started selling frozen Jones chicken sausage links. It’s less than $15 for 3 lbs, and they contain no nitrites, nitrates, sugar, gluten, dairy, msg… If anyone would be interested in that info. :)
    Also, several years ago I started baking my homemade sausage patties instead of pan frying and I now prefer the way the way bake up and the less mess factor. I don’t like comments that say “your recipe is wrong” but just sharing a tip I’ve found to be an option. :)

  • @OneWeighorAnother

    I love making egg cups. 10 eggs is perfect for 12 muffins, I’m glad I’m not the only one who thinks so!
    We top ours with cheese when they come out and I have found that large chunks of bacon are unappealing (the texture gets weird!) so we don’t add bacon, but I will add it to the top when they’re done or wrap them with bacon after (the cheese I mentioned makes them stick) sausage tends to be our favorite combo but I have made pepperoni ones too that got gobbled up.
    I just butter my pan and use the pan then dump them out when they’re done. No need to wash a bunch of silicone cups. I tried paper cupcake liners but they were awful to peel and it changed the texture of the egg (I think because the paper absorbed so much moisture.) They were terrible. We wound up feeding them to the dog.
    As far as safety goes, my cupcake pan is made of the same material as my cake pans and casserole dishes so I don’t feel like it’s any more dangerous to eat the muffins if I would bake it in the same type of dish as any other recipe. I have silicone, glass and metal bakeware. It’s impossible to know which ones are more/less dangerous but we do our best. The only thing I really avoid is scratched bakeware (meaning scratches in the non stick coating, not just well loved pans)

    • @FromScratchFarmstead

    Try adding some of your collagen powder to your snack gummy's. I use the same amount of gelatin as collagen powder. Example 1/4c gelatin & 1/4c collagen. It does something to the texture of the gummy's. It makes them creamy when they melt in your mouth. So delicious. I watched your video on snacks from a while back & thought I would send you a message. Adore your sweet family ❤

    I've found two ways to avoid the paper/silicone muffin cups. 1) is to grease the muffin tins with coconut oil, this helps them come out really easily. 2) to get stoneware muffins pans. Stoneware works very similarly to cast-iron pans in its care (no soap) and that you let the stoneware season like cast-iron.
    I know that a company called pampered chef at least had muffin pans, not sure if they still do our not
