Reviewed: Jul. 19, 2009

Fantastic. Everyone that tried it asked me for the recipe!

only mediocre, sadly. Especially in comparison to the other banana nut breads out there. Added a teaspoon of vanilla, separated it into two 9 inch cake pans, baked for about 20 or 25 minutes. It was cooked through, but the texture was quite spongy (my main gripe), and the outside looked uncooked. Flavorwise, a little bland. I would sub in some brown sugar, maybe, to spice it up.

a little bit dry, and the flavors were a touch subtle for my taste. next time, i'll be a bit more generous with molasses

Snickerdoodles III

Reviewed: Dec. 18, 2008

I've made this recipe four or five times now, and every time the cookies are amazingly cute and perfect-looking. I really like the rounded, dome-like shape of the cookies and the way they're just a little fluffy, but I can see how that may be a turnoff for some bakers/tasters. Word of advice though: be very careful with how long you put it in for! The recipe's recommendation of 8-10 minutes is right on, but any longer than that and you will have sad and burned cookies.

Eileen's Spicy Gingerbread Men

Reviewed: Dec. 4, 2008

TOO flavorful for me... I was looking for something a bit sweeter, a bit more cinnamony, but it certainly lives up to its name! I want to say, though, that even though I worked with small, frozen balls of dough, the dough was still way too sticky for me, so maybe if I had added a lot more flour both my concerns would have been moot.

Pizza Muffins

Reviewed: Sep. 3, 2006

Delicious! It was a little cheesy for me, but I think that's because I tried halving the recipe and accidentally mismeasured the cheese...so yeah that was my bad. But on another note, I do think it's worth noting that the instructions regarding the incorporation of the buttermilk+eggs and the dry ingredients is a little vague

Banana Nut Muffins

Reviewed: Aug. 24, 2006

I omitted the lemon zest, replaced the oil that the recipe asked for with 1/3 cup of applesauce, added an extra 1/4 cup of bananas, and also added some extra chopped walnuts, as it seemed like there weren't quite enough. I don't have a standard-sized muffin tin, so I just filled my 24-mini-muffin-tin. The result? Heavenly, and even lower in fat!
