(I think someone at Epi posted this)

1 1/2 C flour
3/4 C sugar
2 t baking powder
1/2 t baking soda
1/2 t salt
1/2 t cinnamon
1 egg
1/4 C applesauce
1/3 C vegetable oil
1 1/2 C finely shredded carrots--lightly packed
1/4 C chopped pecans
2 t lemon zest -- finely grated

Adjust rack to lower 1/3 of oven and preheat to 350°F. Spray an 8x4 pan with non stick spray. In a large bowl, sift or whisk briefly the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Make a well in the center.

In a medium bowl, whisk the egg, applesauce and oil, then stir in the carrots, pecans and zest. Pour carrot mixture over the dry ingredients. Stir until all ingredients are combined. Batter will be quite stiff. Spoon into prepared pan. Bake 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool pan on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Remove from pan and cool completely on wire rack. Wrap in plastic and store at room temp overnight.

Rec: NLB's Indescribably Delicious Banana Bread (can't believe no one has posted this one...)

Banana Bread done NLB's Way

BATTER
1 cup butter
1 1/2 cups sugar
4 RIPE bananas -- mashed
2 eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
4 tablespoons buttermilk
2 cups AP Flour
1 1/2 teaspoons soda
1 teaspoon salt

TOPPING FOR AFTER BAKING
6 tablespoons butter
10 tablespoons dark brown sugar
5 tablespoons milk
1 cup pecans -- chopped

This is outstanding and makes two large loaves and I always ending up giving one to a neighbor.
The topping is what really makes this so delicious.
*******************************

Preheat oven to 350°
Cream butter and sugar.
Mash bananas
Beat 2 eggs
Add to the bananas with vanilla and buttermilk
Mix well and add to creamed butter and sugar.

Sift together flour, soda and salt.
Add to banana mixture, beat well.

Pour into 2 greased and floured 9x5x3-inch loaf pans.
Bake 45 to 50 minutes or until bread pulls away from sides of pan.
Cool.

Prepare Topping:
Melt butter in saucepan.
Add sugar and milk.
Cook until very syrupy.
Remove from heat and add chopped pecans.
Pour over bread spreading to all the corners.
Place under broiler until bubbly and brown.
Watch closely.

I didn't have milk so I substituted Dark Karo Syrup. You can't hardly mess this great recipe up.

 
Do you think I could use lime instead of lemon in this recipe? >>

As it happens, I'm sitting on 1 1/2 pound limes.... (Don't ask!!) smileys/wink.gif















....great sale at the local store. I just HAD to buy them. They were practically SCREAMING my name! smileys/bigsmile.gif

 
My favourite porridge. It's a central Canadian mix of grains; I'm sure I saw it somewhere on US

shelves. But the mixture isn't magic. It is such a healthful concoction that I often make the date loaf recipe, which, I found out yesterday, is not on their website. redrivercereal.com (how tricky!)

But I'll dig it up if anyone wants it.

1 c. chopped dates
1 c. boiling water

Sift together:
1 c. AP flour
1 t. salt
1 t. Baking soda

Stir into flour mixture:
1 c. brown sugar (or less; this is very sweet)
3/4 c. uncooked RR Cereal (or create mixture yourself)
1/4 c. chopped nuts (toasted pecans)

Blend into cooled date mixture:
2 eggs, beaten
2 T. melted butter
1 t. vanilla + +

I used double intensity vanilla and used 1 1/2 times the quantity. But I love vanilla.
