French Baguettes

You guys I LOVE THIS RECIPE!  For a bread recipe its pretty quick and it turned out really well! I decided to use mine for french bread. Dallen and I ate the whole thing in one setting! Healthy I know but seriously it was yummy! 

Im sorry I'm too lazy to type up the recipe but I got it from "The Food Nanny" and hopefully you can just zoom up on this picture! 

One thing she recommends is before you start making your bread to pre-heat the oven and put a pan of water on the bottom shelf to help create humidity and leave it there during the baking process which is supposed to help the bread have a nice crispy crust. She said professional ovens have misters...who knew? Anyway I highly recommend this recipe its awesome! 

Another Banana Bread Recipe...

This loaf I made sure was cooked before I took it out! My co-workers loved it. I just cant wait to try the other recipe again so they can try it because I'm telling you it was really good! Anyway this recipe I would say is your typical banana bread recipe, still good but pretty average. The only thing I didnt different was add nuts :) Recipe here.

Cinnamon Crumb Banana Bread

So we all know I like to bake, so when bananas go "bad" at work I like to take them home and try out new recipes and then take the spoils back to work. This one has a tragic ending but I will most definitely be trying it again! This is what happened....

I followed the recipe the way I was supposed to, put it in the oven for the time I was supposed to and then did a toothpick test, (which doesn't usually lead me astray) for some reason the toothpick came out clean so I assumed it was done. After it had cooled for a while Dallen helped me take it out so it could cool...we set it on the cooling rack and then we watched as the top sunk....right out the bottom of the bread and on to the counter. It was not cooked at all in the middle, I mean it was literally pure batter! I was so disappointed! So we decided we might as well try the crust and this is where the story gets even more sad...we both thought it was really good...and we don't even like banana bread all that much!!! Dallen even said I should save the recipe. He also told me I should put this fail on the blog because "people love that sort of thing" ha ha. So I hope you enjoyed my fail, one of many. I do recommend this recipe just cook it longer than I did! You can find it here!

Banana Pumpkin Bread

I had bananas…I had pumpkin.. they needed used so I looked up a banana pumpkin recipe. I wasn't a huge fan of this bread but I should have known when you mix two nasty things together it won't turn out delicious. It needs chocolate….or something. But if you are a banana/pumpkin fan you might actually enjoy this. Recipe here.

Hamburger Buns

I am seriously the worst at taking pictures so what you see here isn't the finished product but pretty much what they looked like right before they went into the oven. Ive never made hamburger buns before but Dallen and I thought they turned out really well! They were so soft but not so soft they stick to the roof of your mouth, they really were perfect! I will be using this recipe again. Next time I think I'll add a little wheat flour to it! Recipe here!

Banana Muffins

I work at a hotel and with it being the slower season sometimes the food goes bad and they can't put bananas out that have spots on them (whatever…) So I took some home and made some banana muffins. You can find the recipe here. 

They turned out pretty good, I'm not a huge banana fan but they taste like banana muffins lol! You can be expecting more banana recipes from me :)
