Welcome to bakedbyhannan

Hi, I’m Hannan and I’m so glad you’re here to join me on a baking adventure!

I bought my first baking book about ten years ago, but it was during COVID that I found myself baking several times a week. For months we didn’t leave the house, so my mother cooked and I baked. It was then that my niece set up hannan___bakes on instagram. She took the photos and was the creative mind behind my instagram.

I’m lucky to have lived in many different parts of the world trying different cuisines, and I try to bring that to my baking. I urge you to explore world bakes - you’ll love it!

I live in New York now and continue my journey as a home baker while working full time for a non-profit. I hope you like my recipes, and don’t hesitate to ask any questions. Enjoy!

Baking Tips of the week

  • When measuring out flour, don’t press down on the flour. It should be comfortable in the measuring cup and leveled off. You can also weigh it instead - one cup equals 120 grams.

  • Make sure your eggs are at room temperature. If you just removed them from the fridge, you can quickly get them to room temperature by putting them in a bowl with hot water for just a few minutes

  • Do 4 things before you start baking:

    1) read the recipe in full

    2) prepare and measure out all the ingredients

    3) lay out all the equipment you’ll need, and

    4) prepare your baking pans - line them with parchment paper or butter and flour them

This will save you so much time!

  • Don’t open the oven door frequently - your baking will turn out uneven

  • For cookies, chill your dough before baking. That will stop it from spreading.
