Baking is a method of preparing food that uses dry heat, typically in an oven, but can also be done in hot ashes, or on hot stones. The most common baked item is bread but many other types of foods are baked. Heat is gradually transferred "from the surface of cakes, cookies, and breads to their center. As heat travels through, it transforms batters and doughs into baked goods and more with a firm dry crust and a softer center".
So, interesting thing happened yesterday. I made a banana bread with a sugar substitute which claims to be 1 for 1 replacement for brown sugar, but the results I didn't expect were:

I've been given four of these mini loaf / cake tins. Does anyone have any advice on cooking times using these? I've seen some references online to reduce the cooking time by 25%, so for the Victoria sponge I made yesterday this would be 15 minutes instead of 20 minutes. These tins are 40mm deep...
Hoagie Rolls:
NOTE: This hoagie roll recipe is not too different from many that exist, except for a few very minor differences. Many hoagie roll recipes recommend using rapid rise yeast and this one uses active dry yeast. It bakes at 360F, not the typical 400F. It also uses brown sugar instead...
Hello friends -
Sorry to start my membership here with a query, but I was hoping for some advice from the many experts here.

For a few years now, I've been selecting a skill/area and developing it over the course of a few months. It's amazing what you could learn in a weekend, but if you do it for a few months the growth is incredibly rewarding. For skills that I expect to be slow-and-steady, I like to keep a log of...
