I can't stop cooking!!!

Craftycat I am baking more than usual, consequently I'm eating more cakes than usual as I cannot abide waste!!!

Me too, I have cooked, 2 freezers now full. Even doing some baking which I'm not good at but I'm trying. I've made huckle duckle this morning for the first time despite having the recipe in my book for around 25 years . I have made 3 lemon cakes too. Quite enjoying it all actually. Now looking to see what I'm going to do next.

I made a largish fruit cake as a kind of traybake then cut it in portions and froze two thirds of it. Worked well til OH came across it in the freezer and said “Oh good - cake “ and took it out. He had his cholesterol checked during his over 70 check up and both figures are bad. Back to the drawing board!

Brunette10 I have googled huckle duckle but it comes up as something to do with horses, what is it please?

Craftycat that made me giggle

I married him for life, but NOT for lunch!

I too have been baking more, bread baps, malt loaf, biscuits. Looking now at new recipes I can try.

Never heard of huckle duckle, what is it Brunette10?

I can't stop cooking either.

I usually only ever make cakes etc. when guests are coming, but I’m a bit the same at the moment. Since my barm brack (no fat, only one egg, plus I used up some GF flour) turned out rather well the other day, I’m going to make another. I have just enough dried fruit left.

Love that merlot - I’ve saved it to share!
?

I'm baking galore too!?????????

Saved to share too merlotgran

Keep it up!! It’s so therapeutic and you can always give some to confined neighbours.

rosenoir it's a biscuit based traybake with condensed milk, syrup, marg, ginger. It's so yummy. Let me know if you require the recipe.

Love it merlot

I'm the same, cooking and baking like crazy and no room left in the freezer. But we are trying to make room there by eating all the ice cream that is kept for the dgc that won't be stopping by anytime soon. Of course that compounds the issue highlighted perfectly by merlot! It has crossed my mind on occasion that this must be the "eat, drink and be merry" concept. Oh well, we are enjoying for now and can diet later..

I was a can’t cook won’t cook kind of lady but the husband is now type 2 diabetic and with this virus so bought a Tom Kerridge low carb cookbook and I’m now cooking like mad but almond flour and coconut flour are really expensive.
No restaurants or takeouts is a great incentive.

Yes, Brunette10 I would like the recipe please, sounds gorgeous.

Just made a gf rosemary and garlic loaf.

Somebody stop me from eating it, pleeeeeeeease?

I wish I had the ingredients to cook or just eating it comes to that.

I keep making soup - anything lurking in the bottom of the fridge beware you will be souped!

I have another three over ripe bananas so that will be either banana cake or biscuits to make - again.

Waste not, want not.

I made Scotch pancakes this morning, a bit too tinged but they should be fine.

' all the freezers are full'?
You must have a huge family.
