A question about : What have you baked today?

While I wait for the timer to go off, I'm just wondering who else is baking today and what yummy goodies they are making title=Big

It's Australia Day on Tuesday and I have several Aussie workmates so I've made some Anzac biscuits to bring to work.

Also while the oven was heated I thought I might as well make a cake so I've thrown a Victoria sponge in there and I'll sandwich it together with lemon curd, for a change.

Anyone else baked something tasty today?

  • All your baking sounds yummy
    I'm still starting out in my domestic goddess ways, but today I have prepared a lamb pie for tomorrow's dinner & baked some jam tarts with the left over pastry. Tomorrow I'm going to tackle mince pies (wrong time of year I know!!)
  • Just made some yummy rice pud coz I had some reduced cream to use up, also I have roasted some butternut squash and peppers as they were looking a bit pityful in the fridge (not much life left in them) with which I shall make a soup.
  • Carrot cake and a loaf of French-style white bread from the BM for me.
    I really must try making twinks some time - everyone on here seems to reckon they're brilliant and I'd really like to find out for myself.
  • I made a really yummy victoria sponge for my mom and some fairy cakes for the kids. Tomorrow I hope to make HM quiche and a cheesecake.
  • Just made a Girdlebuster pie. Yummy!
  • No baking as such today but the pilchard pie I made for tea went down a treat and there's one for the freezer. Yesterday it was 2 large loaves and a dozen rolls and date and walnut scones.
    Bella.
  • Only a spag bol for me today. It seems ages since I did any baking we have been trying to use up all the food gifts from Christmas. I think we are nearly there now . We took 4 tins of biscuits to work & put them in the staff room. That got rid of those within two days lol.
  • I have just made my very first banana bread adapted from Nigella's recipe online after reading a thread about it on here yesterday. Of course I had to adapt it, I can never leave well-alone even when I've never made something before! It's turned out most beautifully and I'm so proud of myself I'm going to take it over to some friends for tea tomorrow afternoon. IF I haven't eaten it all by myself beforehand.
    PILCHARD PIE? I'm not a meat-eater so I'd be very interested in a recipe for that, if you can be bothered.
  • Cheese and leek mash with sausages; plus cinnamon and raisin bread and some rolls just going in the hot oven now...
  • i used my new bread maker for the 1st time and made some banana and choc cakes and attempted to make muffins but they didnt turn out so weel
