Wooden Baking Basket - Flat
Wooden Baking Basket - Flat
Homemade breads are the most perfect gift. I always love keeping a loaf of pumpkin, cinnamon or cranberry bread around our kitchen for snacking, breakfast or dessert - and so will your friends and loved ones. There is something intrinsically comforting and healing about baking, giving and receiving bread. These Wooden Baking Baskets are perfect for making your homemade breads gift-able. And yes, you actually bake right in the basket. I place mine on a baking sheet lined with parchment for easy clean up.
I came across this example while on our trip to England - classic Brownies (from a box mix!) with (store-bought) caramel sauce poured over and sprinkled with sea salt. Packaged in this baking basket plus a Large Cello Bag makes a great gift.

This Baking Basket fits perfectly into our Rectangle Window Box for pretty gifting. I baked "Homemade" Cinnamon Rolls (from frozen bread dough) in the Flat Baking Basket, then packaged in our Rectangle Window Box for our Christmas deliveries.
I recently made a couple Hostess Gift ideas using the basket as a tray. I made one with Sugared Scones and Strawberries, and one with Granola & Yogurts. These are both nice as hostess gifts or for new moms. I used the Mini Basket size for berries in the baskets.
I also plan on baking entrees in this for gift meals (new moms, sick friend, etc.) like lasagna, chicken pot pie - I'll let you know how it goes!
