1. Mix 8oz self-raising flour, 8oz porridge oats and 8oz sugar. Melt 8oz of margarine, 1tbsp golden syrup and 1tbsp of hot water in a pan. Stir in ½ tsp of bicarbonate of soda and add to the dry ingredients.

2. Then mix well and make into smallish balls which you then put on a greased tray and flatten slightly with a fork. Put in the oven at 180 degrees C for 15 mins. Cool on the tray. The aim is to get them golden in the oven not brown.

Today I made these. My first venture at baking and unfortunately half of the results were so substandard I had to eat them. Tomorrow I'll be quality testing the other half.
Sadly the biscuits were so substandard, I was forced to eat them all. I shall buy a bigger baking tray or three, try making some more to see how they do.

I haven't baked it yet, but today at my class we made puff pastry from scratch! Honestly I don't think I'll ever do it again, it's far too much hassle and very long-winded, but it was nice to do it just to have a go. I've brought a big lump home and will probably make some custard slices and maybe a nice steak pie.

I haven't baked a cake in years but today to use up some extremely ripe bananas I baked the low fat banana loaf using the recipe I got from one of the threads on here. I'm so excited that I've 1. not wasted the bananas and 2. Haven't bought it from a shop.

Trouble is I've got to be very strong willed and not eat it all :eek:. I guess it can freeze so as soon as it cools down I will slice it up, check that it tastes as good as it smells and freeze the rest

got some stale brown crusts soaking in soy milk and vanilla atm, shall add some diced apples, sprinkle on the sugar and voila! nice bread pudding for after lunch.

"Freeze it as soon as it cools down"! Hahahaha! Nice try at self-control there: I know I don't have any, myself. I made some banana bread a few days ago and put some cocoa-powder and chopped chocolate in (30 pence a bar of "Value" chocolate from the Co-Op) instead of dried fruit and it's ruddy delish zapped in the microwave on "defrost" for a minute to warm it and served with a dollop of creme fraiche (this week's rather lavish treat at 60 pence a tub).

I've got a jar of raspberries in syrup stashed away in the cupboard and intend to make a sponge-mixture and turn it into a sort-of upside-down cake-thingy. That should be good with the creme fraiche, I hope.
