Brad and Claire Make Doughnuts Part 1: The Beginning | It's Alive | Bon Appétit

Bon Appétit’s Brad and Claire are back for a very special crossover episode (Part 1!) of It’s Alive. Claire says they’re making doughnuts with sourdough starter. Brad’s trying to make “sourdoughnuts” a thing. Who will win? You will: this episode had so many good Brad and Claire moments that we had to make it two parts.
*Correction, let's make that three parts.

Join Bon Appétit Test Kitchen host Brad Leone on a wild, roundabout, and marginally scientific adventure exploring fermented foods and more. From cultured butter and kombucha, kimchi and miso, to beer and tepache, learn how to experiment with fermented and live foods yourself.

Now we know what killed Claire. It wasn't the starbursts, it was making the starbursts while simultaneously collabing with Brad

[roberthinch]

This dynamic is something I miss more than anything else ever.

Claire pretends to be annoyed at times with Brad but I can tell she really loves working with him. This is the class prefectionist working with the class clown and realizing he actually knows what he is doing. I think Claire really likes the permission to act a little goofy that she gets while working with Brad.

[McMaster]

this whole channel’s basically a workplace comedy at this point, and i’m 100% for it

[Prinxy]

I don't know who I like better. Brad's slapstick editor or Claire's passive aggressive editor. I love both of them.

[TRJ]

Favorite part, hands down, is when Claire like low-key forgets they're filming in the walk in and scares the life out of herself when she zones out reading bags.

Claire being professional and explaining why you fold the dough and then you just hear wind blowing in the mic and then you see brad walk into frame fanning himself with the lid lmao I love that

[PandaBear]

Definitely the best BA video to date. The interaction between Brad and Claire are hilarious. Now we know why it took so long for Claire to make the starburst.

[liesalllies]

Claire's grumpiness level during the starburst video has so much context now lol

[annam]

Brad in one sentence: "Missing the point, but with a great attitude"

[michcoop]

I truly have zero intention of ever making these doughnuts... I'm just here for Claire and Brad to make me laugh tbh.

Pastry Chef and Golden Retriever Make No Doughnuts

[garrettstringfellow]

Brad and Claire need to just have a permanent series of just making random breads because it gives so much time for banter and I honestly live for it

[nataliewilson]

These videos are curing my self-quarantine depression in the midst of this pandemic.

*In a cruel twist of fate, these videos are now causing my quarantine depression.

[daphnemoralesruelas]

The camera guys hi fiving and waving at each other is the cutest thing ever

[mekenziemcelroy]

petition for BA to post bloopers/outtakes of this video after the final part is posted

[Isabel-jsyh]

Claire: trying to explain in expert detail how to do something.

Brad: waving a lid directly into his microphone distracting literally everyone

[krizzy]

"If you're trying to make a doughnut, you clicked on the wrong video." XD hahahahaha

Part 1: Brad: "you can't rush perfection, Claire"
