A quickie

I made a banana loaf to-day, first time for a while, as the last time I made this particular one it fell in the middle what a disaster it was, the gulls enjoyed it though, it was the first time I'd baked in this oven so I have to get used to the temps. so I bought an oven thermometer to be on the safe side, Mine read a different setting, so I adjusted it. I had some ripe bananas hanging on the hangman's noose so I was determined to have another go,
Huh, I must be losing my marbles , after I'd creamed the butter, or so I thought, I added the eggs, and realized the butter wasn't creamed enough, it was still a bit solid here and there.  mistake no one,
 I had to add mashed banana, and flour and sugar a bit at a time. Then when I was clearing up, I noticed there was some sugar left in a dish, oh no, the cake was in the oven so I just said a few choice swear words to make me feel better and let it cook. Here is a pic, I don't know what it's going to taste like, I also don't know why the heck I baked it as I'm going out for a meal to-night and I'm on a 'don't open the food cupboard of fridge' diet. will I ever learn,

I've also got a loaf in the breadmaker, so please Lor' I'm not having a completely bad cooking day. though it would help the diet should it be so. 

Just hard the beeper sound to take  the bread out, and it looks OK Ta. ra !!



Thank you for visiting and please come back, Arlene, Tango and Ruby

    It doesn't look like the banana bread fell. How did it taste?

    Well a little less sugar is probably better for you though might not taste as good. Sorry you did have me laughing cause I do the same thing all the time. These days it happens more and more. I have a bread machine also but the kneader has been jammed. Hubby has tried to fix it a few times but rejams. Always after I just get all the ingredients in. I sure like yours that makes loafs lenght wise instead of upright. Anyway glad you enjoyed my other website. That is really where my creative place is. Have a wonderful week.
