i bought an extra bunch of bananas on Saturday, just so that i can make banana muffins and steamed banana cakes. the batch of banana muffins i made last night got rave feedback from everybody. i had 4 bananas left, so i decided to make steamed banana cakes and banana muffins.
i must say the steamed banana cakes are ok, not sweet enough. i reduced the sugar qty to 90g. does 10g make such a big difference? i haven't tried tonight's banana muffins. hope it turns out as well as last night.
with all these bakings and tasting, it's no surprise that i'm putting on lots of weight. this is bad; Jo is 13mths now and i really need to work hard to lose the spare tyre.... all these baking adventures are not helping.. HELP!

baking soda is sodium bicarbonate. baking powder containes baking soda and some other leavening agents. here's a website that explains > http://chemistry.about.com/cs/foodchemistry/f/blbaking.htm.
