Chocolate banana muffins, a small batch. A loose amalgamation of several different chocolate/banana breads, these are small, just a couple of bites of chocolate goodness.
I made it based on recs here, and that’s not an incorrect description — it was pretty wet inside.
Here’s an inside shot, writeup linked here along with various other apple cake recs further up.
If you’re looking to try a different recipe sometime, the one-bowl recipe from Epi I reported here has been very reliable since the first time I tried it and is now the family standard across all family locations .
I absolutely hate clafoutis, but I love Marie-Helene’s apple cake.
Thank you, I read through all the comments and your photo and agree, I don’t think that’s quite the style for me. I will try the one you recommend now.
Edit: that link goes to your preferred banana bread. How about the apple?
Thank you for posting that it also sinks for you. I feel less incompetent . It tasted delicious – I just don’t remember it sinking last time. The coconut strips on top of the cake are

all of this talk of apple cake… and that’s what I made last night! But it was the Mostly Apple cake from Snacking Cakes, without nuts ( I don’t like them, and there was some allergies in the group).

Can’t bring myself to bake, but I wanted something sweet. It’s cold here finally, so: first hot chocolate of the season. It’ll have to do.
Whoopsie, now I see that. Thanks for collecting links for me!

Does anyone have a favorite oatmeal wheat bread recipe? I’m specifically looking for one with oats for cholesterol.
And the bathrooms have never been cleaner (laughing and crying and pulling out hair).
