Today was another one of those CRAZY busy days. Hubby has been on the phone with clients all morning and I have been packing cards. By the time I realised I was starving and was about to make us breakfast it was almost lunchtime! I felt like something freshly baked and savoury. I usually make my sweetcorn bread from scratch - but being a bit pressed for time today I took a shortcut (all the while holding thumbs that it would actually turn out ok!!)
I keep a packet or two of these premixes in the cupboard for emergencies (almost starved + lazy + in a huge hurry = EMERGENCY):
I added oil and eggs as per the packet instructions, a 410g tin of sweetcorn and about 150ml water. Shared in half between two greased loaf pans. Baked at 180C for about 45 minutes:
They turned out quite well. Had to take a quick pic because Hubby had arrived to investigate the aroma! Grated some cheese, put out some butter and apricot jam, made two quick cups (coffee for Hubby - tea for me) and LUNCH!
Slices are a bit hacked - the bread was still steaming hot - but, as I said, we were starving! OOOH yummmeee! It was delish!
Spending the afternoon working in ends and trying to figure out why I suddenly cannot connect to the internet on my laptop??
Hopefully I will still have some time to work on my Christmas Stocking pattern.
