can anyone recommend a good recipe using bananas. I have two to use up that are a bit too ripe for me too eat as I like them just past green.
If you're still looking . . . I'm not a big Nigella fan but I do love her muffins
I've never used the honey in it as I never seem to have any in when I'm doing them, still come out gorgeous though!

Microwave Banana pudding:
Melt 100g butter in the micro for 30 secs or so, add 1 and a half mashed bananas (over ripe give the best flavour), mix in 100g brown sugar, 100g self raising flour, tsp cinnamon, 2 beaten eggs and 2 tbsp milk.
Slice the other half banana over the top then microwave on full power for 8-10 min until cooked through. Dust with icing sugar and serve warm with ice cream.
Yummy, cheap, easy and quick!!

That sounds great sunbat, will def give it a go, got a couple of bananas in the freezer.
I have ready to go in the oven - bramble and apple crumble and a marmalade cake.0 -
Weetabix Brownies using shredded wheat instead. Also threw in a handful of mini marshmellows that were lurking around...they are wonderfully gooey and chocolately0

Today I made some mini apple turnovers with the remaining puff pastry and a frozen apple. I just peeled, cored and chopped the apple and put in a pan with some sugar, cinnamon and a little water & cooked until soft. When it was cool I put it into pastry circles and folded in half, sprinkled with sugar and popped them in the oven.
I've also got a sponge cake on the go, but this time I put some raspberry compote in the middle. Not sure what it will turn out like, but I'm ever hopeful.
The banana cake from yesterday is nearly all gone, no wonder I'm not losing any weight :rotfl:Mortgage: Was: £154,495 Oct 2039 Now: £82,340.34 May 2037Swagbucks ~ £155 (2024 ~ £395)Surveys ~ £161.29 (2024 ~ £280.14)Make £2025 in 2025 #5 ~ £964.62 ~ (2024 ~ £2,561.04)0 -
nothing yet as the beef is taking up the oven. Am planning on a batch each of scones and flapjacks when it comes out.0

Today I made Nigella's flourless chocolate brownies and some chocolate chip cookies all done whilst the oven was on roasting a chicken.
I love Nigella, not least because she has bigger hips than me which is no mean feat :rotfl:Started Self Managed DMP 10th May 2017.

Can anyone recommend a fairly simple yet yummy recipe for cake or biscuits that once baked will keep fresh for about a week (or more)? I know they will freeze well but I haven't got any room in the freezer!
Oh, and not fruit cakes or the like please, as both I and the person I was thinking of baking for don't really like them.0 -
Weezl's frugal carrot cake and Twinks Hobnobs
Both went down a treat with DH:):):)
