    a few. lets see
    pineapple upside down cake
    peach cobbler
    a bunch of different kinds of cookies
    brownies

    I keep the ingredients so I guess a variation of many things. I have cocoa, choco chips, white choco chips, butterscotch chips, marshmallows, coconut, nuts. canned fruit, frozen fruit, fresh eggs and powdered. powdered milk. Oats and raisins, cranberries

    and of course flour, sugar, salt , baking powder and soda ect. I would guess I could make a fair amount of different things.

    what would be on your list?

    that reminds me I should get a few more cans of pumpkin I only have one or two. Looking at your list I could most likely make a fair amount of them accept some of the specialty ones.

    I should get more organized with recipies handy and keep a list going.

    I would love to have a list together to for homemade dry soup mixes. With my dehydrated items. I would like to make prepackaged kits kinda. All I would have to add would be water and boullion.

    No clue. I would have to get a cookbook out.

    The CSA came today so we have fresh strawberries and cherries along with a couple dozen eggs. I bought coconut milk today (milk allergies). There are wheat berries that can be ground.

    I have no mixes on hand but could make a variety of cookies, cakes, pies, cereal bar treats, cookie bars, cobblers,crisps, puddings, gelatins, brownies, sweet breads, and cinnamon rolls or monkey bread.

    Hubby was in the mood for peanutbutter cookies yesterday
    so he pulled the ingredients out of the pantry and made them.

    Hardly anything! I am out of flour! I keep it in the freezer and did not pay attention when I used the last bag. I do have some almond flour and some spelt. I have chocolate chips and peanut butter and pretzels. I could put the pretzels in peanut butter, roll in the chips then dust in the almond flour?I have bananas, peaches and lots of assorted fruits that I have frozen or canned.I have fresh blackberries and a little sugar.I'm not too creative.

    I love scratch gelatin the best. You know the ones you make with unflavored gelatin. Jello box mixes have always seemed to sweet to me.

    Never knew that someone makes from scratch! How cool is that..Could you post the recipe? The only thing I think I used the unflavored gelatin is for my homemade bubblebath jelly.
