Okay, now this has exited the '(someone) liked this post!' realm and two people I know have reblogged it...
Banana bread I can't remember, because I make it so infrequently (I love it too much... and also I don't have bananas that go bad often); but pumpkin bread, I don't see the relevance of this notion - you literally dump all the ingredients in a big bowl and stir like a beast. Been doing that for actual decades, to rave reviews from hundreds of people (because it's a traditional gift of my family). Still deliciously moist, still sweet.
the funniest dynamc between my boyfriend and i is the chef/baker divide runs so deep. experimentally my boyfriend is a genius with figuring out what flavor profiles will not just taste good together but also will be enjoyed by the specific audience he is cooking for. a recipe is not a guidebook so much as a suggestion and he will frankenstein ideas together to get exactly what he wants to happen. he also didnt know that sugar will not work properly if you dont mix it with the wet ingredients in banana bread and when i asked 'why didnt you do it in the order of the recipe' he said 'i didnt really think it mattered'. autistically i exploded his head in my mind
#was given to my teachers when I was a kid#then I gave it to my colleagues and 12th graders when I taught#families literally looked forward to having 12th graders so they could get a loaf 😄#like... other baked goods - yes very important to follow steps#pumpkin bread... the steps are '1. add these things to bowl; 2. stir'#that's it#and it's *good* 🤤#free life
