Who wants to join me in a recipe sharing and scoffing thread using the Great British Bake Off as an excuse?

This year I want to try and make something related to the 'theme' each week so for Cake Week it was Chocolate and Banana cake:
Chocolate and banana cake
6oz soft brown sugar 8.5oz SR flour
4oz butter 3-4 mashed bananas
2 eggs 4oz chocolate chips

  1. Oven 170C. Grease and line 8”/20cm round tin
  2. Beat the butter and sugar, add eggs
  3. Add flour chocolate chips and bananas
  4. Bake 40-45mins


And for Biscuit Week it was Monkey Puzzle biscuits:
Monkey Puzzle Biscuits (makes about 20)
2½oz plain flour
1oz Corn Flakes
1½ tbsp cocoa
3oz butter
3oz golden syrup
Chocolate icing!
  1. Sieve flour and cocoa.
  2. Cream butter and syrup until soft, add flour mixture and slightly crushed Corn Flakes
  3. Put walnut-sized lumps on greased baking sheet
  4. Oven 180C for 15mins
  5. Ice if you want but I don't usually bother!


For Bread Week I'm going for Kensington buns, a chocolate and marshmallow variation on Chelsea buns :)

So, what are your food plans, and recipes?
