Bakes Divine: November 2007

Banana muffins

My baking classmates swears by this author, and so does my ex boss who loves baking lovely cakes to reward the team. While i am not quite a cake baker , i decided that I'll get Rose Levy's "The Bread Bible".

As proud owner of this "bible", its all about having a try at every single recipe in there. This is not an impossible task, as fellow bloggers and avid bakers will tell you.

One of my favourite recipe is none other than Rose's banana muffins recipe - the muffins just has one of the most delightful dessert of all time, and trust me you'll be asking for more. Inccidentally, this was how I became a budding home entrepreneur selling banana loaf to my neighbours' co-workers in their offices.

However, this year, I have taken a back seat, in my exploration, as i have been too caught up at work and sleep is the most precious hobby, at the moment.

So here's the muffins that will set you drooling!

I love this bread, and made it for my good friends over Xmas 2006 and they loved it

Thanks to Judy whose recipe is simple and easy to make. That is why all her students realised how fool proof the recipes are. The fullness of the bread is further enhanced by the olives and herbs.

So here it is:

Raisin & Walnut Loaf

Its been a year, how time flies and in the most bizzaire fashion, i actually remembered my password to this blog. Truly, its not a lame excuse, for not having any bread postings for a year and bread baking is still something i enjoy.
However to photographed these delightful bread is something I never faithfully do.

So when my ex -college mates, gathered during the Christmas season at Ian's place. (Ian is our annual host cum organiser, whom everyone have to thank. Year On Year,he keep us, friends gathered together for yuletide plot)

So these are loaves of friendship, through the years.

Enjoy!
