I think I have forgotten how to bake! Am in a rental & the oven burns all my baking! Plus all my baking gear, mixer etc are all in a box somewhere in the rental garage pending building a new home.

Do people really still feed their children this much butter, sugar and white flour?

ha ha, i happens every time!unless your family eat no sweets at all, home baking is the best.Its not as though it all eaten by one person in one day. and no added chemicals.

Just made a Feijoa cake was meant to be a loaf but there was too much mix for loaf tins so it became a cake.
Feijoa Cake/Loaf: 14 peeled and sliced feijoas, 60g butter, 1c sugar, 1c water. Boil altogether then mash, cool down before adding 2c flour, 2 tsp baking powder and 1 egg. Bake at 180C until golden brown.

There is no reason why you can't use Pams Wholegrain oats. It's just giving you more fibre (and counter acts a naughty food lol)

Yesterday I made two dozen wholemeal bread buns, 5 of them cut in half, spread with peanut butter and individually wrapped for son's lunchbox next week and put in freezer (makes mornings so much easier!!). Also made two dozen raisin buns, these I also wrapped individually and froze. Today I'm making pizza bases that I will par-bake, cool, wrap and freeze for a Pizza Night on Saturday. Will be baking a big banana chocolate cake sometime today too - guess what .... I will also cut into slices, wrap and freeze!! Shame there's nothing in my pantry to eat - all the baking's hidden away in the freezer!! :)

Good on you Mums baking for your families, for their lunches. And good on you for making the lunches too! There are far too many kids out there who have never had home baked goods, only supermarket rubbish. The one or two twits who start on about 'healthy' food, need to pull theoir heads in a bit. I'll bet they eat broght biscuits!
My mother at 90 is still baking for family. None of us or our children & grandchildren are any the worse off for it either!

There are 3 "books" now.
I've printed them out and put in an arch leaver folder. Leave your email on one of my auctions and I'll see if i can email them to you. Leave your email cryptically of course and i'll see if I'm any good at working it out lol
). Or you could see if "jaxma" has any listings and ask her( Joanne) she is the mastermind behind them

Heres one for you lemsip BIRDSEED BAR- 1c sesame seeds. 1c sunflower seeds,1c coconut, 1 c chopped nuts- roast all these till nicly browned in the oven, then add 1c sutanas , in a pot put 100g butter 1/4c honey , 1/2c sugar, melt together and mix into dry ingre , press into a tray and cut when cooled. This is addictive, and my kids love it .

I make this too but have taken to adding hulled buckwheat from Bin Inn. It's still gluten free and is really crunchy/nutty. I usually boil the sugar/honey mix gently for no more than 5 mins.

What a great lot of goodies to make. We are retired and I spend a day a week baking and making puddings/what ever.
We both love home made and so do grand children neighbour, or just a small package for a person on her own to have with a cuppa.
I have always baked had four children ( plus school fairs etc.). who hated "shop biscuits" as they called them, and I must say I like
cooking.

It's the start of the weekend, so I've got a batch of wholemeal dough in the breadmaker and have just made a dozen 'triple choc and banana muffins'. Back to the kitchen for me, I want to make some slices today for the freezer and also some pumpkin soup :) (Might have to go and tickle my chooks as I've only got 4 eggs in the house atm!)

Eccles cakes and am going to try florentines as soon as I can find a recipe close to the one I have lost - it had a lot of fruit in it and not a lot of nuts, very moorish!!!

Amazing thread. I stumbed upon this tonight and just had to try the orange slice. I used fresh lemon juice instead of orange so it was really a lemon slice and tasted delicious. Thanks kob!

Good thread! *watches* I've been making sure I can keep my freezer full, as well as using up all the things I still have. I made several of my chocolate cakes, as my recipe uses sour milk and I'd otherwise have thrown out lots of old milk.
