This “ how not to do “ is a great idea Gemma and the side by side comparison truly helps to drive the point. Thank you, now looking forward to the choc chip cookie version of the same.

It's amazing how something so seemingly easy as banana bread can go wrong. I've made plenty of door-stops over the years. 🙄 But now have my favorite recipe that turns out great every time. That "what not to do" loaf would make fantastic banana French toast! 😋 Thanks Gemma! 🥰

[jesp]

This series has potential!! Awesome idea!
A "How NOT to make chocolate cake" video would really save me. I always manage to overbake or otherwise mess up chocolate cakes

[lizzykate]

I don't mix my dry ingredients together first but after putting each dry ingredient into the wet mixture I mix it together before adding the next. I've never had a problem baking this way and it does save on washing up 😉

Thank you for this, Gemma! I’ve made banana bread hundreds of times, but it’s still good to know what not to do. Your baking tips are always unsurpassed!!

[ArtUAll]

Honestly, both breads look quite similar. Including the softness. And chunks of bananas are not а big deal. But I am totally with YOU for the right way to mix — respect for the right process. I just can see people piling up the ingredients in the order of appearance.
GREAT VIDEO 👍🙏♥️🌿

I don't bake much, but I've taken the concept of mixing dry ingredients before adding to the wet for my daily vitamin/ supplement stuff. My drink powder of choice has some granulated emulsifiers already in it, but I also add a heaping teaspoon of cinnamon & turmeric to it, both of which love to clump in liquid, so mixing them with the drink powder really reduces that so much.

Would love to see a series of these! Would be quite beneficial.

Much Love 💕

it's really helpful for first-time baker or amateur like me who often scared of overmixing flour, probably why I don't like to bake with flour

[devanandanab.nnanditha]

Hai Gemma...It is a good information video for baking bread... Thank u for uploading

[wanyeng]

This is a great series. All the wrong ways and not no to do things. Hope this is a long terms series. You do come up with great ideas. Thank you Gemma.

Your banana bread has always helped me when I have to bring something to a get together or even to sell, but man! Thanks to this I noticed that I am over mixing! Will have to try with a fork instead of a trusty spatula

[ras]

I loved this! Banana bread is my go-to recipe to bake, but I often make those classic mistakes! I noticed in the "correct" method that after the light mixing there still seemed to be some clumps of flour. Is that okay? Will you taste those clumps after it bakes?

[spongebobby]

When even her 'not the right way' effortlessly turns out 100% better than my careful attempt at the right way! 😠🤣

[karenn]

I always use frozen banana puree which results in a more flavorful loaf.

[danachan]

Loved this!! More of these would super helpful please keep this series going!!

[Chamsmad]

This is faboulus idea, this "how not to do" is awsome to really see what "detail" are truly wrong! Thanks please continue to do this format with others bakeries.

[rtyria]

Oh yes, I remember making some of those mistakes. It still tasted good at least. I've had some mistakes not fair so well. What a great series idea. Love it.
