What shall I bake?

[lucysmam]

I fancy something sweet but nothing's jumping out screaming "make me!".

I have a well stocked pantry (apart from only 1/2 a bag of plain flour, so SR preferable). Cherries, blueberries, raspberries and bananas in the freezer. Choc chips, marshmallows raisins etc. No coconut :( though or I'd have made a jam & coconut tart.

I have loads of eggs too, as I've just had 30 from a friend.

Any and all ideas welcome!

Have a scroll through this lot for inspiration

Oooh! That's a good excuse to make both a 12 yolk pound cake and an angel food cake!!!

I'm so jealous!!!!

Flapjack?

I have bread in the oven and fancy making some apple and cinnamon cupcakes.

Just made Lemon Drizzle 😊

@LadyFeliciaMontague I've not seen tnat thread, thanks for the link!

@dementedpixie golden syrup buns/cake are always a winner here.

Angel food cake not shouting either :/

I don't know what I want :( Dd2 suggested giant cookie but that's a no as well.

I made a coffee cake this morning going to have a slice now

Then make the 12 yolk pound cake and freeze the egg whites. The pound cake is bloody amazing for a plain looking cake!

Yesterday I made peach cinnamon buns. I made a brioche dough in the breadmaker. Spread it with fruit, golden syrup and spices, cut it up and arranged it in a cake tin then proved for another hour and baked for 30 mins . You could make a curd with the eggs and fruit.

I made these last week but used the zest of 2 oranges they were amazing:

Today I'm making date cinnamon buns, focaccia and tahini billionaire bars.

I've been craving cherry cake since lockdown, but haven't felt able to justify glacé cherries with the 80-item limit online. So I would make a lovely round cherry madeira cake with loads of glacé cherries and vanilla essence.

might spring for glacé cherries in our next shop since the limit has gone up to 85!

Make tablet, tablet is awesome!

I've just made no churn ice cream. Tin of condensed milk, 600ml double cream, vanilla to taste, whip until thick and freeze.

I’m trying to get good at shortbread. Not perfect yet but learning!

Orange and chocolate shortbread today yum yum.

I was so fed up with cake and biscuits that I made mince pies yesterday

Chocolate fairy cakes with chocolate cake covering here.

Pavlova 😋

Do you have any ground almonds or almond extract? You could do a cherry bakewell tray bake or blondie. If you have ground almonds you can frangipane and push cherries into it before baking.

Welsh cakes - super easy and taste yummy
