Cook Along

Cook Along

@tyme @Former-Member @Shaz51 @TAB @tonys @LeChuck @EternalFlower @Owlunar2 @Zoe7 @Eve7 @Appleblossom @Anastasia @Snowie @Sophia1 @Spirit_Healer @NatureLover @Captain24 @Blackbird11 @RiverSeal @Bow @Jynx @Former-Member

Hi guys,

So I have this idea for a cook along. So once a fortnight or so I will look up an easy recipe on YouTube. Then whoever fancies having a go cooks it and posts pictures of what your creations ended up looking like. The idea is to have fun and not expect perfection.

Here is the first recipe. Your mission if you choose to accept it is to post pictures by Sunday 24th March 2024. That way it will encompass everyone’s paydays. It looks pretty simple and you probably already have some ingredients in your pantry. Good luck and tag others in. Thanks guys…

Re: Cook Along

I'm just finishing off this banana bread recipe first. @tyme it's very yummy.

Ingredient

  • ▢1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
  • ▢½ cup (113g) unsalted butter, softened
  • ▢2 medium overripe bananas
  • ▢2 large eggs
  • ▢7 tablespoons sour milk or buttermilk (To make sour milk: add 1 teaspoon vinegar to milk and let sit 5 minutes)
  • ▢¼ teaspoon salt
  • ▢1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ▢2 cups (248g) all-purpose flour
  • ▢2 cups (340g) chocolate chips, divided

I do self rising flour and a tsp of baking powder. I don't like the taste of baking soda.

Instructions

    • Preheat oven to 180c fan forced grease a loaf pan and line with baking paper
    • Cream butter and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer (and hand mixer is okay too).
  • Add the bananas, eggs, sour milk, and baking soda to a blender. Mix until liquefied. Alternately, mash the bananas with a fork and then stir the eggs, milk, and baking soda into the bananas.
  • Pour half of the banana mixture into the butter mixture with 1 cup of flour and mix until just combined. Repeat with the rest of the liquid and flour. Do not overmix!
  • Stir in 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips.
  • Pour into prepared pan. Sprinkle with remaining chocolate chips. Bake approximately 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick comes out mostly clean (test right next to the crack).
  • Cool at least 10 minutes in pan.
