Bake From Scratch Volume 2
August 15, 2018 by JennyBake from
Scratch is an incredible magazine which I have written
about in prior articles: the
Taste of the South’s makeover and the publication of
Cook Real Food. Hoffman Media, the publisher, produces
magazines that contain recipes and photographs that equal, and at
times surpass, cookbook quality. Each year they compile all those
tempting recipes from their magazine into one beautiful
book.
Bake
from Scratch, the first volume was published in 2017
and Bake from Scratch, Volume Two: Artisan Recipes for
the Home Baker was released earlier this year. The third
volume can be preordered
now and for bread bakers, The Bread Collection will be published on
September 1st! We will have lots of baking in our futures.
If you subscribe to the magazine, you might question why you would
need the cookbook? It is simple – the cookbook is gorgeous,
and we are cookbook lovers after all, are we not? Why do I have a
subscription when I can get the book a year later? Because I don’t
want to wait a year for these recipes! I do hand off my magazines
to others after the cookbooks are published and I have verified
that all the recipes are indeed in the compilation volumes. (They
are save those recipes that were published in prior cookbooks.
Those recipes we have access to in the original author’s cookbook
or online.) We do index the magazines and
cookbooks for our
members.
Bake from Scratch volumes are organized by Cakes, Breads, Pies and Tarts, Pastries, Cookies and Bars, ending with a Miscellaneous chapter with doughnut, puddings and candies. I particularly love that their weight amounts are given in weight and volume and the same stunning photography that graces the pages of the magazines fill these titles.
Hoffman Media is sharing one of their recipes with our members today and offering two copies of Volume Two in our giveaway below. Be sure to check out their magazines and books – they are not to be missed and offer endless inspiration and tasty baked goods.

Makes 1 (9-inch) cake
Ingredients
- ¾ cup (170 grams) unsalted butter, softened
- 1½ cups (330 grams) firmly packed dark brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon (2 grams) orange zest
- 2 large eggs (100 grams)
- 1 teaspoon (6 grams) vanilla bean paste
- 1½ cups (188 grams) all-purpose flour
- ¾ teaspoon (3.75 grams) baking powder
- ½ teaspoon (1.5 grams) kosher salt
- ¾ cup (180 grams) whole buttermilk
- 1 cup (100 grams) diced rhubarb
- ½ cup (50 grams) sliced rhubarb
- 2 tablespoons (24 grams) granulated sugar
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Spray a 9-inch round cake pan with baking spray with flour.
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter, brown sugar, and zest at medium-high speed until fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes, stopping to scrape sides of bowl. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla bean paste.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Reduce mixer speed to low, and gradually add flour mixture to butter mixture alternately with buttermilk, beginning and ending with flour mixture, beating just until combined after each addition. Fold in diced rhubarb. Pour batter into prepared pan. Top with sliced rhubarb, and sprinkle with granulated sugar.
Bake until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool in pan for 10 minutes. Remove from pan, and let cool completely on a wire rack.
