what is the 1/2 cup applesauce,margarine melted?
How much margarine?
Thanks for pointing that out Hazel. Sometimes when we transfer things they get mixed up so I when in and fixed it all. It should have been 2 Tbsp. of oil or melted margarine. Check it again and I think it will make much more sense. Thanks again.
jill .. i have a ?? .. if u use a bread mix but u want it to be more like a cake instead of bread .. do you know what u need to add or change to make the mix more like cake than bread? (ex: banana bread changed to banana cake) .. i know u can make cookies out of the cake mixes (and now they sell those cookie mixes in the box in the stores) ..
just curious .. thanks
I’m not sure Rose if I totally understand your question but like in your example of the banana bread into a cake well for something like that I don’t do anything different but change the pan I bake it in and maybe the time I bake it at. I have a banana bread recipe which I make into cupcakes and frost all the time and I have made it into a cake before doing nothing different.
Most quick breads you can do the same thing. Now I wasn’t sure if you were meaning something else like a yeast bread mix or a quick bread mix. So let me know if I got it wrong.
So the melted margarine goes into the mix, and then there is additional melted margarine for dipping before the topping? Or is the dipping margarine the 2T?
The 2 T. goes in the mix then melt a little more margarine to dip them in before dipping in the topping mix.
