I made sourdough french toast sticks last night. I am making mini banana muffins now, and the cinnamon rolls will be baked later.
Apparently breakfast is the new norm.

I wish it hadn’t. Duckling learned to make cinnamon rolls on her own (except the oven, of course) at four. My housemate is hard to instruct.


The muffins from earlier:

I made GF zucchini bread today. Oh, yeah, just as good as I remember.

I had hubby add an oven thermometer to his last Ama zon order. There is no way to adjust this thing. I have no way to know if it's accurate. I don't think it can be submerged in boiling water, and no instructions came with.

If it's correct, my oven is not 25 degrees high. It's more like 80-90 degrees high. I set it for 325 to bake the zucchini bread, and the thermometer read about 410-420.

GF Zucchini bread with almond flour

Ingredients:
1 ½ cups grated zucchini
2 ¼ cups almond flour
1 ½ teaspoons cinnamon
1 ½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
3 eggs
½ cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted
2 teaspoons vanilla

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 325°F. Grease 8x4" loaf pan.
Place grated zucchini on a double layer of paper towel and press out excess moisture. Set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together almond flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a small bowl whisk together eggs, brown sugar, oil, and vanilla. Stir wet ingredients into dry and then gently stir in zucchini. Pour into prepared loaf pan and smooth the surface.
Bake on the middle rack for 45-50 minutes, or until loaf is golden brown and fully set. A knife inserted into the middle should come out clean.

Made rice pudding today. The best part of fall is that it’s cool enough to cook regularly again!

Let me offer you some oven information that I have observed myself.
The placement of the thermometer inside oven will give different readings.
I am assuming your oven is a regular type, not a convection.
I have a regular gas oven. I notice that certain areas, brown the cakes/breads slightly earlier than others. I do turn my pans to equal things out.
In my case, the back section and close to each side wall, are hotter than front section and center middle of oven. I almost always bake on my middle rack.
Only time we use lower rack,,, is when doing, like a turkey, where it needs more height to fit into oven.

When you set your oven temperature to whichever value,, oven is trying to deliver that to center of oven.

Convection ovens being fan induced, mix the oven temperature more closely, uniform.

What I am writing here is from my personal observations, and experiences.

Sally,, next time you bake, place the thermometer as close to your pan as reasonable.
