Yankee Banana Bread

Sat, 06 Jun 2009 01:54:43 -0400

A nifty way to bake a quick bread. If you don't want to bake in cans, use 4 x 8" loaf pans. The loaves may be frozen. Thaw; heat at 350F, wrapped in foil for 20 minutes. From an old newspaper clipping. -- posted by Molly53

Banana Crumb Muffins

Mon, 08 Jun 2009 16:42:12 -0400

I'm not a banana fan, and I don't normally care for banana or zucchini breads (I'd rather have those foods by themselves), but this is pretty tasty. Continuing my quest to use up the practically free bananas, I ventured out and made these muffins. The topping is king for me, but overall a nice moist quickbread. Recipe from Taste of Home 30-Minute Meals courtesy of Wendy Masters, Grand Valley, Ontario. Thank you Wendy! -- posted by AmyZoe

Orange Cream Cheese Muffins

Tue, 09 Jun 2009 02:25:42 -0400

I love this recipe because it uses an entire half orange, peel and all, and tastes like a cross between a cheesecake and a pound cake! This recipe is adapted from "Great Coffee Cakes, Sticky Buns, Muffins and More" by Carole Walter. For an optional Orange Glaze: Combine 1 cup powdered sugar, 5 tablespoons fresh orange juice, and 1 ½ tsp light corn syrup. Whisk until smooth and pour over muffins. The recipe makes 14 medium muffins, or 12 slightly larger ones. -- posted by blucoat

White Chocolate Strawberry Loaf

Sun, 14 Jun 2009 21:41:25 -0400

I originally posted this on my site: http://darkcaffe.blogebay.com/ but I want to share it with everyone. It's a wonderful way to take advantage of summer's best strawberries. I hope that you will all enjoy it. The strawberries need to sit in the sugar for hours to develop the juice so do plan ahead just a bit. I started the berries in the morning and made the loaf in the afternoon. -- posted by Annacia

Mischef-Maker's Mouth-Watering Muffins

Sat, 20 Jun 2009 02:27:36 -0400

This is a recipe I adapted from Allison Holst's Fruit Salad Muffins in her Muffins & Slices Cookbook. We didn't have any fruit salad, but we did have lots of apples that no one was eating. I added the spice, because not much can beat spicy stewed apples! These muffins are a perfect comfort food to wake up slowly with- coffee and hot apple spice muffins are a great way to meet the day. -- posted by MisChef-Maker

Refrigerator Apple Bran Muffins

Mon, 22 Jun 2009 12:25:31 -0400

I made these at the request of my oldest granddaughter who likes healthy food. Even though these may be put in the refrigerator for up to two weeks, you may bake them all at once and freeze them. They are so moist and good. Very healthy as they are lower in fat than some and eggs whites are used in place of the whole eggs. They make about 24 muffins. -- posted by Mimi in Maine

Blueberry Banana Bread or Muffins

Thu, 02 Jul 2009 02:32:08 -0400

If you've never tried blueberries and bananas together, you're in for a treat! This is a delicious bread, and simply fabulous as muffins. Remember to use very ripe bananas for the best flavor - I wait until they're completely brown, and then peel and put in the freezer so that I can make banana bread whenever the mood hits me! -- posted by Lizzymommy

Sarah's Fruit Loaf

Mon, 06 Jul 2009 16:15:14 -0400

This is a recipe that I was given over ten years ago from my lactose-intolerant friend, Sarah. It's very easy and I've made variations of it using wholemeal flour, different dried fruit or chocolate chips. It's great with a little butter and a cup of tea. -- posted by ashleyjams

Wed, 08 Jul 2009 02:25:30 -0400

Banana Bread

Sun, 12 Jul 2009 09:33:52 -0400

My grandma's recipe, which still makes the best banana bread I've ever had. Dense, moist and delicious. Grandma uses empty aluminum cans to bake the bread, and gets great little rounds. Yum. The riper the bananas are, the better the bread tastes. -- posted by Chef #1120064

Low Sugar Banana Bread

Sun, 12 Jul 2009 10:01:02 -0400

Kellie's Basic, Go Ahead and Mess With It, Scone Recipe

Fri, 17 Jul 2009 12:47:48 -0400

This recipe started as a Lemon Glazed Scone recipe I found in a locally published recipe book, you know the kind sold as a money raiser with personal recipes from community members. Over the years I have adapted it many times. It has become the basic formula I use to make scones for tea with friends, family gatherings or on those mornings when I wake up and find we are out of bread and cereal. I add whatever I have in the cupboard or fridge. It has never let me down. I encourage you to substitute and add stuff. The basic formula is mix together the dry stuff, cut in the shortening, stir in any lumpy additions then mix in the wet stuff. Have fun with it! -- posted by redplaid huf

Berry Cobbler Cakes

Thu, 23 Jul 2009 01:41:19 -0400

Is it a cobbler or a cupcake or a muffin? You decide! Use any fresh berry that you love. If anything sticks to the pan just scrap it off an put it back on the cobbler. When place upside down on a plate they should have a slight dimple in the bottom perfect for holding ice cream or whippend cream. Adapted from a recipe I found on the web. -- posted by momaphet

Blueberry Streusel Muffins

Sun, 26 Jul 2009 19:43:18 -0400

I found these muffins in a book by the Australian Women's Weekly and made them for my Dad's birthday this year. The original recipe called for blackberries but I used blueberries instead. I'm sure they will be yummy with other berries as well. I also cut back on the sugar and butter used in the original and they still were very rich. Yum! Note: the cup measurements are based on the use of an Australian cup of 250 ml. -- posted by Lalaloula

Coyotes Blue (Or Yellow) Cornmeal Bread

Fri, 31 Jul 2009 14:30:29 -0400

This sweet, and very moist cornbread is served at Coyotes Deli & Grill in Banff and the recipe was printed in Bon Appétit (Nov. 2001). Pine nuts add a surprisingly delicious element. The blue cornmeal makes for a beautiful presentation but it tastes just as delicious with yellow. Toast pinenuts on a cookie sheet at 350°F for 5 minutes. Best served warm. Leftovers, if you have any, make an awesome twist on French toast. -- posted by blucoat

Mon, 24 Aug 2009 02:21:32 -0400

Healthier than your average blueberry muffins (less sugar, less fat, and whole grain) and still delicious! You can use lemon in place of lime for a different hint of citrus. The raw sugar gives that nice crunch to the tops of the muffins, but can easily be left off. -- posted by ludosti

Asiago, Apple and Rosemary Bread

For this savory loaf tart apples, like Gravenstein, work well but use what you have and like. Using your food processor to shred the cold butter, Asiago cheese, and apples, in that order will speed things along. It's not necessary to peel the apples unless you just want to. -- posted by Annacia

Simply the Best Above All the Rest Banana Bread

My mother used to make this banana bread for us often. I have fond memories of waking up in the morning to smelling mom's homemade banana bread baking in the oven on a cold rainy day...AHHHH!!!

Lemon Basil Blueberry Muffins

Tue, 15 Sep 2009 15:41:37 -0400

From The Herb Society of America: This is a wonderfully delicious and fragrant muffin; it is sweet like cake. The addition of blue corn is fun and tasty gives a bit of added texture and the corn is sweet. If you aren't familiar with blue cornmeal, try it and you will find its earthy taste is good in cornbread, muffins, and blue corn pancakes. You can use yellow or white cornmeal if you don't have the blue. Use a combination of lemon and cinnamon basil for the fragrance and flavor; the citrus and the spice go well with the blueberries. However, if you don't have both basils, either one can be used on its own and still make a tasty muffin. -- posted by Ariella

Banana Muffins, Diabetic and Delicious

Mon, 21 Sep 2009 13:18:48 -0400

I met this muffin on the Christine Cushing Live show and had to try it. For my money this is the ultimate banana muffin when it comes to the health aspect and just plain good taste. This can be made with some chopped nuts in place of the blueberries (or a small amount in addition to the berries). The nuts will add fat but nuts are heart healthy fat, you know the good kind. -- posted by Annacia

Mani's Bakery's High Protein Muffin

Fri, 09 Oct 2009 02:33:14 -0400

This recipe comes from the LA Times Food section's SOS column posted in response to reader pleading. It is an adapted recipe from the bakery. You need jumbo muffin tins to get the 14 muffins from this - regular tins will yield more muffins & likely need a slightly shortened cooking time. Should be getting about 11 grams of protein & 9 grams of fiber with about 32 grams of fat - but a lot of that is coming from the seeds & canola oil. Just the thing for hiking, fishing or hunting - easy to eat & needs no fridge! -- posted by Buster's friend

It's my family's favorite recipe for banana bread as it uses no vegetable oil. It's quick and easy to mix up, and comes out moist and delicious every time. Baking time is approximate as oven temperatures vary. -- posted by Laura_Ozz

Banana-Yogurt Oatmeal Muffins

Thu, 29 Oct 2009 10:28:49 -0400

A healthy, tasty muffin your family is sure to love. For the Greek yogurt, I highly recommend Oikos or Chobani. It lends a very delicate texture to the end product. The blueberry flavor doesn't come through on its own, but adds a nice depth of flavor. -- posted by Chef #661355

These tasty morsels come from King Arthur Flour Whole Grain Baking. I typically sub in either 1/2 cup to 1 cup of white flour to lighten them up a little. These will disappear from your breakfast table faster than you realize! My toddler gobbles these up! -- posted by Hadice

Christmas Cherry Nut Bread

Mon, 16 Nov 2009 00:59:46 -0500

This is so easy to make as you just put everything, except the cherries, in a bowl and mix it, adding the cherries last. It is so pretty and so good. It is nice with a cup of tea or for giving in a pretty little basket along with some tea. You could put a pretty tea cup in the basket, too. If you like fewer cherries, use the lesser amount; I like more so I use the whole jar. -- posted by Mimi in Maine
