BANANA OATCAKE - DEVIL OF A COOKBOOK
« on: March 09, 2015, 07:45:47 am »
I whipped this up tonight at the end of our long weekend - popped in  the oven while it was on cooking dinner.
The recipe calls for 2 eggs, I found I only had one, so just carried on (by that stage I had got fairy far through the recipe), and it still worked out really well.  :D
I did add another 1/2 banana just cuz miss22mths had eaten the other half so rather than waste - add!!!

I am having a job stopping little hands snitching pieces of it, so it is getting a huge thumbs up from 4 girls here......just hope there is enough left for their lunchboxes tomorrow  ;D

Looks really nice Asatarra :) I have got quite a few ripe bananas, will you be able to share the recipe for this?

Maybe the extra bit of banana made up for the omissions astarra.  Nice to see you posting again.

Thanks for the review Astarra, it looks nice. Have you shifted house?

Tried this yesterday with a little tweaks.

Firstly halved the recipe as I didnt have as many bananas..
And then replaced sugar with dates so that I could give to my toddler
Replaced butter with canola oil as I didnt have butter
And replaced eggs with extra banana and water ;)

Okay, probably not little but many tweaks, but at the end, it came out lovely, very spongy and my lo loved it as a dessert, so will be making it again :) Thanks astarra!!

That's a whole new recipe thermilover  ;D  Most of us make tiny changes to recipes but you had a great time altering this one to suit your toddler, well done I say.
