When you have over-ripe bananas in the house and refuse to eat them, what do you do? Make banana bread, duh. It’s been so long since I was constantly making my boozey rum banana breads. This one is a sober loaf though. Chocolate chips and peanut butter swirled in. Gorgeous. Everyone around me has been […]
You have no idea how long I have been waiting for this day to come. I sound ridiculous but hey, we all lead busy lives and sometimes it takes a bit more effort to make a dream come true! #crazytalk I thought I better hurry and get my game on before the blood orange season […]
Look who’s back! Yes I’ve pretty much been gone since 2000 (just being dramatic) and I’m finally posting something. It’s just not very motivating when there’s so little daylight to work with and photos look crappy. Yes, I’m making excuses. But I must defend myself in that the year has been so busy, baking hasn’t […]
Yes you read the title correctly. Rum. Not kidding with you here. This cake is pretty loaded with the flavour of rum (for me at least). The original recipe calls for dark rum but I only had light rum. Not sure if this may have affected the flavour in the cake. I’ve been craving banana […]
One of the most important days of the year is coming up real soon. Pancake Day. Or Shrove Tuesday if you’re familiar with that. PANCAKE DAY!!! If you’re a busy bee like me, it may not be possible to make pancakes on the day itself. So I make them in advance. As an excuse to have […]
So I finally got myself a 12-hole muffin pan. Yes. I mean I have one in Singapore but not here in London. I decided to christen it with this super simple muffin. It was a fine, fine day and I wanted something cinnamony and I was also craving cake. What else would be better than […]
So I’m back in Singapore with a full-sized kitchen. That only means one thing: bake to my heart’s content! So week 2 of my holidays and we start off the week with this beautiful braided loaf. I made a white sandwich loaf last week and it gave me the confidence to try and enriched dough […]
There’s something about this photo that looks so… mathematical… ANYWAYS. A pathetic photo of 4 lonely triangular (yes I wish they were circular and fluted on the edges too) scones but deal with it. It was my first time. And they were good. Aw yeah. I was having lunch when I felt like making something. […]
I really wanted to bake this weekend. So I went on a mad thinking quest on what to make. I first wanted to make an oatmeal cake but after hearing my mum question the possibilities of success I decided to try making a Blueberry Buckle! Then another think quest began on finding the best and […]
This literally is the best one I’ve made so far. I think it’s the addition of dessicated coconut. It makes it so fragrant and nutty. The house smelled amazing when it was baking in the oven! I used some ingredients that I usually would not for a change and also because they were cheaper (I […]
Foodation.
