    Yesterday made 19 currant buns and four loaves of bread.

    Last Friday was the last day of Beach Mission, and so we made some cakes for fund-raising - I baked them in flat-bottomed ice cream cones, then iced them, and they looked just like ice-creams. They went down very well, especially with children, and were the first ones to be sold out!

    I baked my very first loaf of bread this evening, tasted just like my mum used to make when I was little, we ate it with butter melting on top. No more shop bought bread for us anymore, it was so simple to make too :-)

    Well done you - it's so satisfying isn't it? I cheat and use a breadmaker but it's still better than shop bought as I control what goes in there and as you say it's fab with melting butter. Off to get the breadmaker out......................

    Oat and cranberry cookies!

    Was meant to be oat and chocolate chip but Mr Nobody had scoffed the choc chips!! He's around a lot in the school holidays and he trawls the cupboards and fridge regularly!! Cos my darling children wouldn't do that!!
  • I've made a ginger cake and a currant cake.
  • I've made Golden Crunchy biscuits and Dropped scones!
    It's a farmers life for me......:j

    Yes well done. I also cheat a little. I only use the dough cycle. I shape the loaf myself, cook it in the oven, it looks and tastes much better than letting the machine do the whole job

    rock cakes from an old recipe.
    (1001 recipe cookbook by barrett and harrop)

    Really nice and not too sweet, great with a cup of tea. All ingredients were in the store cupboard.
