[CnD] egg & banana pancake

2018-01-30 Thread John via Cookinginthedark
Yes, that's correct these 2 ingredents can make a pancake.  You can also add 
other items: straw berries, blue berrries, peanut butter, and syrp.  I have not 
made it but only ate one good.  A little tricky to flip, use a thin spatula and 
make the cakes small, also cook on medium heat.

  a.. 2 eggs
  b.. 1 banana (ripe)
  c.. cooking spray, for pan
 
 
Directions
  1.. Mash ripe banana well, add in whisk eggs.
  2.. Warm non stick or cast iron pan to medium, spray with oil. Cook silver 
dollar size pancakes 30 seconds on each side and serve.
You will probably need to cook longer than 30 seconds per side, you want them a 
little firm before flipping.

[CnD] Banana Chocolate Chip Loaf (Re-Post)

2018-01-30 Thread Marilyn Pennington via Cookinginthedark
Banana Chocolate Chip Loaf

Serving Size  : 1

 

1 cup  sugar

1/2  cup  butter, softened

2 eggs

1 cup  mashed ripe bananas

1/2  cup  milk

1 TSP pure vanilla extract

2 cups  all-purpose flour

1 TSP baking soda

1 TSP salt

1 cup  semisweet chocolate chips

1/2  cup  nuts (optional)

 

Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9" x 5" x 3" loaf pan. Cream the sugar
and butter with an electric mixer until light.  Add the eggs and mix well.

 

On low speed, mix in the bananas, milk, and vanilla. Stop the mixer and add
the flour, baking soda and salt. Mix until just combined, then stir in the
mini chocolate chips and nuts. Transfer batter to prepared pan. Bake until a
wooden pick inserted in the center comes out clean, 55 to 60 minutes. Cool
in the pan 5 minutes; turn onto a wire rack to cool completely before
slicing.  ** NOTE:  Mini chocolate chips work better than regular chips
because the regular size ones tend to sink to the bottom of the loaf during
baking.  Enjoy.

Re: [CnD] abbreviation

2018-01-30 Thread Nicole Massey via Cookinginthedark
Yeah, and that's one of the reasons why I put it at the end. Also, someone 
forwarding it doesn't have to dig into the title to delete it, and saved 
recipes fall in alpha order in a directory instead of a huge cluster of T or 
TNT recipes in the letter T part of the list.

I appreciate the T designation, but please include it at the end of the 
recipe title, not the beginning. The reason for this is because when saving a 
recipe, punctuation or signs such as the & sign tend to truncate the title at 
that point. Then I have to save it with a strange title that doesn't make 
sense, or I have to take the time to retitle the name for the saved document. 
This is not a difficult thing for me to do, but it is a great time saver when 
renaming the document is not necessary.
Thank you for  your consideration.

Tried and True. It means the person posting the recipe has made it themselves 
and can vouch for it. When forwarded the person doing the forward is supposed 
to remove it from the title, but that doesn't always happen. I use T after 
the title, and you can be sure it's something I've prepared myself and it's 
both good and also blind friendly.

First of all get yourself a good set of oven mitts. These are glove like
things that you can put on your hands so with your hands won’t burn touching
read grill. Secondly practice when it’s cold. Get a hamburger patty that’s
already been cooked, and practice finding it and flipping it with a spatula.
You can also use a fork and or a knife or any kind of utensil in your left
hand to help you find the different things on the grill. For more come back
again soon I am a coffee roaster by profession, and I own a café. I do work
in the kitchen there, as well as I roast all of the coffee for my company. I
do a lot of grilling and smoking foods at home, because cooking is one of my
favorite things. I am a totally blind person, and what I find helps the most
is in cooking practicing moving foods putting food on grills and all of
those kinds of things when the grill and the food is cold.
