Oh, in my life.

Is it working?

I can't see myself yet.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay.

Hi.

Okay, so there's, like, a split second delay.

Um Hey, kids, Uh, thanks for joining me.

Seems weird to tell you who I am cause I figure that you probably know, um, is everybody Can you hear me?

Is this working?

Okay.

Hi, Thomas.

Hi, Byron.

Um, I seems like it's working.

Okay, I'm gonna start.

All right.

Hi.

How's everybody doing?

How are you doing?

What's going on, Dudes?

Um, we're actually doing really well, considering this is just like a such a bizarro time that we live in all of a sudden.

And I'm gonna share with you a recipe that I've been making.

Ah, little too often.

According Thio my But, uh, it's a it's vegan.

Which before everyone's like vegan food sucks A it doesn't.

And B, there's so many people that don't have eggs or butter or milk right now.

And I know that cake seems like a little luxurious.

It's a little Marie Antoinette ish Evans.

Ready?

Uh, but I do think that it makes you feel like things are kind of normal.

And if you have a kid at home.

Baking projects are a great way to pass the time.

Isn't that right, Chef?

Baby, look at this guy.

He's 5.5.

He's not even a baby.

Okay, so this is a banana cake that I have these two very gnarly bananas that flint he's gonna mash up for me, right?

Okay.

Good.

And I've got, um my dry ingredients.

You're great at mashing up stuff.

What you talking about?

I've got my dry ingredients here.

I've got two cups of flour.

I used a white whole wheat flour like a holy pastry flour because I'm running low on regular white flower.

A machine up.

My man is a that we're going.

Sure.

I've got sugar.

I've got a 3/4 of a cup of sugar.

Um, I used mostly brown sugar because that's again what I had.

We are kind of running low on a lot of stuff, but it's fine.

It'll work.

And spices, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice.

You could use pumpkin pie spice if you just have that sitting around and salt and baking soda baking powder.

And I put a just posted the rescue to my website, and I put a link in the little chat thing over here.

So I think you should be able to see that on your pooter on your computer.

And I'm gonna put this all in here.

I should have just started with it in here and saved myself a bowl, but I never claimed I was a genius.

Okay, wait here.

You consider it, but used the whisk spatula.

There you go.

Okay.

And then I got these, like, rodeo bananas that I've been hanging on to because, like, very quickly.

So Chris and I like it's been three weeks now for us that we, like, did our self imposed isolation, which, honestly, has been a piece of cake for me.

Compared to most people, I think because we already worked from home and I like to stay home all the time.

Anyway, I this is made me realize that I am a very serious home body, and actually don't ever need to leave my house.

You want to taste that dry flour mix?

Well, when it's done, yeah, you can try it because there's no raw eggs in it.

So I've got these two bananas.

Oh, but what I was saying is like growing up.

We were pretty poor, like food stamps and stuff.

And so I looked.

When I was growing up, we learned very much like never, ever waste food.

And then I got kind of lazy with it as I got older and I have more money.

But like, so quickly, I was like, Okay, there's one bite of yogurt left, and we're gonna stick that in the fridge.

I'm not gonna waste that.

So anyway, I've been holding onto these bananas.

Not that I ever honestly, overripe bananas.

I always save those.

Either peel them and freeze them for smoothies or something.

Or a tournament of banana bread like this.

But, um, it was just interesting.

I noticed, like, a mental shift very quickly until, like, austerity mode like, we gotta save everything.

Um, okay, I'm going to mix it up.

And if you don't have whoops, sorry.

If you don't have bananas, though, you could use applesauce or probably canned pumpkin would work.

I haven't tried it.

I haven't tried applesauce either, but because we have had a lot of bananas around, you gotta use those muscles.

Dude.

Here, stand up.

Stand up.

Taller seeking.

Get more leverage.

I'm judging my base.

Ah, Sorry.

Okay, Steve.

Huh?

Now, really?

Ram it.

Oh, yeah.

Use both hands.

Oh, you're all done.

Okay.

Are you distracted by watching your own face in the computer there?

Um Okay.

So got about half a cup here of mashed up banana.

I'm trying to think of anything else you could use.

Um, I don't know.

Way already added cinnamon, but we are gonna add vanilla.

You right, son?

A lot.

A lot.

A lot.

A lot of vanilla.

Okay, I'm gonna add some oil.

Some sort of neutral oil.

I mean, I'm using Sattler oil.

Canola oil, light olive oil.

Uh, you could probably use coconut oil.

It would taste coconut here, but I think I would be less shells.

Okay, let me get down here.

Measure this, right?

You know what?

Probably not really measured, right.

Don't care.

I think it'll still work.

I think this will be a fun test so that I'm gonna add some vinegar.

And this helps with the rising.

Similar to if you were using buttermilk.

And now I have made this before using like a hemp milk, which I actually have.

You could use any kind of non dairy analogy Could use canned coconut milk.

Okay, hold on.

Yeah, you can start.

You could use, um, regular milk if you have it.

And you're not even, uh I'm gonna I was thinking, though, that right now I might try this with water and see what happens and see if there's a noticeable difference in the deliciousness or the texture.

Just for those of you out there who may desperately need cake but don't have any sort of fake milk product or milk product.

So I'm gonna take one for the team and put in some water.

But I forget how much water I need to check my own bang recipe.

What the heck?

Okay, 3/4 of a okay, tap water, and then we're gonna add the vanilla.

Hey, Flynn, it's your It's your moment to shine, my love one.

Oh, shoot.

Sorry.

Here.

You put it in such a terrible person, huh?

I said you could do it, and then I totally forgot to let you do it.

Oh, all right.

Now, you gonna start up gently not to slosh it out Everywhere, please.

Right.

Right.

Or am I gonna stir it?

Who's stirring it.

Well, okay.

Go.

Wow.

Good job for my case.

Yes, it does.

Okay.

No, this does not taste good yet because all the sugars and the other container container, I mean bowl Jesus lowered.

What kind of cooking show is this?

Okay.

All right, now.

Oh, what?

We lost some of our dry ingredients there, buddy.

Well, does it smell delicious?

Has a smell.

Give it a sniff.

There's a smell.

Delicious.

Okay, then we still have to add chocolate chips.

What?

There's chocolate chips, hickey.
