It\u2019s Week 7 of our Extreme pantry challenge, and today I\u2019m turning basic pantry staples into 15 loaves of freezer bread for under $1 per loaf. \ud83c\udf5e This is bulk baking for real life: fast grab-and-go breakfasts, no extra grocery runs, and a freezer stocked before yard sale season hits.<\/p>\n
In this video, I\u2019m using my home-canned apples, berry syrup, and bulk ingredients to batch bake:<\/p>\n
\u2013 Apple Bread<\/p>\n
\u2013 Berry Oat Bread<\/p>\n
I\u2019m doing all of this in one afternoon so that on busy mornings, we can pull out bread for French toast bakes, or simple toast without spending extra time, money, or mental energy. This is how we stretch one normal income, stay debt-free, and still eat well during our busiest seasons.<\/p>\n
Pantry cost per 2-loaf batch (My bulk price vs. frugal sale price):<\/p>\n
\u2013 Apple Bread: ~ $0.89 (about $1.90 if you bought ingredients on sale)<\/p>\n
\u2013 Berry Oat Bread: ~ $0.77 (about $3.80 if you bought ingredients on sale)<\/p>\n
Frugal pantry staples used:<\/p>\n
\u2013 Home-canned apples, home-canned blueberries and berry syrup<\/p>\n
\u2013 Flour, oats, sugar, oil, and spices bought in bulk at best price<\/p>\n
\u2013 Yeast and other baking basics bought in bulk<\/p>\n
