Dessert!

[ChowMein]

Hello Ladies,

Iv'e just picked up a pack of puff pastry. I intend to make squares with leftover apple pie filling. Any hints?

I've never done this before.

Dear DD,

HMMM . They come with instructions?!?

[Tansy the Terrible]

My Welsh Nana used to say "when in doubt, stick it in at 350C and take it out when it smells good."

350 does seem to be a good universal temperature. If it doesn't get done quick enough you can turn it up to 400 too, but I wouldn't recomend higher than that, I have burned lots of things like that.

Baked Bananas

Serves 4

Ingredients:
4 bananas (6 if small)
2 oranges (navels are best)
2 teaspoons dark brown sugar (optional)
2 tablespoons genuine Maple syrup
2 teaspoons Grand Marnier (or Cointeau)
Cream

Preheat oven to 180 deg C (350 deg F = universal baking temperature)

Peel and slice the bananas diagonally, place in a shallow open oven proof dish.

Zest the oranges and sprinkle over the bananas.

Juice the oranges and pour over over the bananas.

Sprinkle the sugar, maple syrup and the Grand Marnier evenly over the bananas.

Bake for about 10-15 minutes, until the bananas are soft but not going dark.

Divide equally into dessert bowls pouring the sauce over the top. Pour a little cream over each portion. Serve and eat immediately.

Very yum!

P.S. all me own work too.

Just wondering - could you make a rice pudding style dessert only with rice noodles?

Might try it sometime.

Hmm... Sounds like an intersting concept.

I would try a bit of pimento, ground star anise, or maybe some ground cardamon.

Maybe even all three!

I'll try it out some time and report back.

Sounds excellent. I'll have to add butter and rum, myself, instead of maple syrup.

[OZ_Nick]

Yummmm....

Tried the rum and butter version last night. Now I have a problem. Two equally delicious but different versions. Which to choose, which to choose?

Here's a Birthday Cake my mother made once:




The noodles and meatballs are all frosting.

It's Noodly Good. Anyone with a talent for frosting should try it.
