Desert experiment

[Popcorn]

My 2 favorite cakes, carrot cake and Banana nut bread.
Dumped together
Change the water for milk
Change the oil for applesauce
Add 1 tspn cinnamon
14 min at 350, 16 if you over fill the muffin cups

Mmmmm, I think we are on to something here.
Maybe better with butter than icing!! It may take a dozen to figure that out!

Very nice. While you're on the subject of weird baking experiments, Mrs. TAFKAP sprung this one on us a few years ago, and it remains a hit. I do it on Scout campouts pretty frequently, and folks have finally accepted this as normal and not at all weird.

Your favorite box of brownie mix....we like to use the Ghirardelli double chocolate or ultimate chocolate. Substitute all their wet ingredients with a single can of pumpkin. Not pumpkin pie filling, just a can of pumpkin.

Mix it all up, and bake it as instructed. No kidding, it works great.

Just weird enough it might be great!

You all suck, I'm diabetic, just put a order in for the ingredients pumpkin should be ok right? wife's at the store now

 

[mike243]

well made TAFKAP brownies, they are goey, I like em but the wife wants more firm, you will end up with goey hands so a plate is recommended, will make POPCORNS next after my sugar levels come back down

Left the cinnamon out due to the wife not liking sometimes, made 1 pan of muffins and a 9x13 cake pan, muffins are really good, found a can of cream cheese icing and might try on the part of the cake tomorrow, afraid to take my blood sugar will take a couple days to drop I would guess

Wife said the syrup in the cake mix probably made them too moist on TAFCAP cake so that will be a do over another week.

Women typically like them quite firm as us men may prefer them tighter/gooier. Not surprised.

I was thinking mushroom clouds.

 

[Specializedjon]

I was thinking mushroom clouds.

That would have been even better

 

[Popcorn]

I was thinking mushroom clouds.

Hhmm
Shiitake mushrooms and Serrano peppers slow cooked in a pot of pinto beans!!!

I see clouds on the horizon

 

[Popcorn]

Nice! How was it?

Oooey, gooey delicious.
Using the 8 x 8 pan they came almost cake like in the corners but the flavors are best where it's gooey-est!
Surprised at how smooth it is! A very worthy find indeed
Of course a side of vanilla ice cream only compliments

Thanks for sharing!

Nice! Welcome to the cult of pumpkin brownies

My mom taught me a way to always remember which is which when it comes to desert and dessert... you always want 2 desserts... 2 S's in the one you want...

We experiment all the time.....This one looks like a big success, I just don't care for pumpkin or cinnamon but I got starving mouths that would kill for them.

I may try vanilla yogurt instead of applesauce.

My substitution is not for the pumpkin lover. And there's no pumpkin spice to it, either. I'd plop a dish in front of you, you'd gobble up all the brownies, and you wouldn't believe me when I said I made it with a can of pumpkin.

This isn't anything like pumpkin pie. Just a gooey, slightly less firm than usual brownie.
