COURGETTE TEA BREAD/MUFFINS -cups added

Thought I would share this recipe -it is gorgeous!!!! -if you like carrot/passion cake -these should be a hit ;-) -I used my 2nd courgette last night to make these.... if the courgettes do as well as they seem to have started off -I may well "have" to make some more batches to go in the freezer for later in the year .

Its originally made in the oven in a loaf tin, the ones above were made in the remoska -

1. 1 large egg
2. 125ml sunflower oil 1/2 cup
3. 175g courgette -trimmed and grated 1 cup grated
4. 150g wholewheat flour 1+1/4 cup
5. 1/2tsp baking powder
6. 1tsp bicarb ..........I replaced 4,5 +6 with 150g SR flour
7. 1tsp ground cinnamon
8. 175g soft dark brown sugar 1 cup -packed
9. 75g sultanas 3/4 cup
10. 75g walnuts, chopped 3/4 cup -measured before chopping

• preheat the oven to 180c - 350f - gas 4 -
• grease and base line a 2lb loaf tin with non-stick paper
• beat the oil and egg together in a large bowl
• sift in the flour and add all other ingredients and stir to combine
• pour into the prepared tin
• bake for 1hr, or until a skewer comes out clean
• cool in the tin for 10 mins, then remove and cool

If doing in the remoska -it will make about 15 like the ones in the photo (about 2/3 fill the cases)-so you will need to do them in 2 batches -the 1st batch took about 30mins then because it was warm for the 2nd batch they took about 5 mins less

* There you go folks -I made a batch this morning and transfered into cups -hope they work out well*

REMOSKA GOLDEN SYRUP PUDDINGS

I concocted these the other day when I was in desperate need of something sweet (saved trundling to the shop and wasting money)... I did them for the Remoska -thought I would share them, they were gorgeous -the pic is a bit pale as its artificial light -but at least you can see the size)

1. 150g margarine/butter


2. 150g granulated sugar


3. 2 eggs


4. 130g SR flour


5. drop of milk

• cream the butter and sugar until light n fluffy


• beat in the eggs 1 at a time


• stir in the flour and a drop of milk to slacken


• I placed 1tbs spoon in the bottom of each of the 4 individual metal pudding basins


• then shared out the cake mix


• place in the remoska


• pour about 1" boiling water into the remoska pan


• cover the tops with a layer of foil


• and switch on..mine took 40 Min's

they came out just like being steamed in a pan of boiling water..so I'm rather impressed ...ohh and they are nice cold too
