I’ve lost count of the amount of banana bread and sourdough loaves on my Instagram feed and swore I wouldn’t get sucked in. My expanding waistline and living in a two-person household persuaded me I was doing the right thing but I succumbed on Friday and made duffins, (link below) and they were amazing. Today I’m making brownies, to hell with the calories

What are you baking?

These individual sugar-dipped cupcakes are baked not fried but taste just as delicious, from BBC Good Food.

I’ve obviously done the obligatory banana bread (although I’ve been making that for years before it was trendy!). I’ve done scones, cupcakes, lemon drizzle, fairy cakes and croissants! My waistline is not thankful but my mental health is! It has been nice to pass the time and make things from scratch as usually I don’t have any time for that.

Duffins sound amazing!

Wow, you’ve been busy! I used to bake a lot when my four were young and it was the ultimate stress buster. The duffins are great with lemon curd instead of jam and I’ve been thinking about using Nutella.

No banana loaf insight or sour dough in our house!
We have made pizzas sausage rolls, bread, pizza muffin loaf, Cornish pasties with homemade pastry, scones, birthday cake, cup cakes, brownies and shortbread! We have a baking day once a week but we always have, my children are 7 and 5 and both can bake.

Oooh good topic.

Well I'm pleased to say I've not made a Banana bread as I hate bananas, so I've made cookies and Brownies. Nothing since as Ive ran out of self raising flour and cant find any anywhere!

chocolate choux

Banana bread ‘muffins’ (couldn’t find a loaf tin in local supermarket and didn’t want to shop online), I also added chocolate chips. They turned out well which was encouraging. I literally never bake though

I cant bake well. I was craving cake so made one, it was so thin it was basically a biscuit and STILL wasnt cooked through. Unbelievable. I think it's my crappy oven, my husband moans constantly about it. I have made trifles, and cupcakes with the kids, and now have some ingredients to make a cheesecake (wanted a caramac one but cant find any caramac). I'm 33 weeks pregnant so calories dont count
