Not stupid at all.......I didn't explain well.  Yes, the bread is still in the can when you wrap the bandana around the can. To get it out, you cut around the bottom of the can and push it out the top.

This is probably a dumb question but do you leave the bread in the cans when you wrap it in red bandanas

Oh my I am so hungry now! I've made bean bread before, like Ezekial bread. But this sounds just yummy. Will try and report back.
My family has a similar Whiskey Cake, but, Frannie, I love your starter with "take a sip". Ya' gotta make sure it's good, right?
Blessings!

Hey Frannie, You're gonna love this..........!! I have been baking Pork and Bean Bread for years and giving it as gifts. However, and here's the kicker as you say...................I bake it in greased and floured 16 ounce cans - 5 of them - and tie them up with red bandanas. Fill the cans about 2/3 full, stand them on a baking sheet and bake 45 to 50 minutes at 325. They are a big hit!!

That whiskey cake sounds yuuuuuuumy! We're out of whiskey right now but I guess we'll have to make a trip to the liquor store before too long!

 Hi gals white chillie.hmmmmm! sound different, never heard of it, but i am going to try it, some say around here i have blue ribbon chillie, (the other kind) with meat. 1\4 cp. of chillie powder, dash or so of tobasco sauce, depending on how hot u like it i spose. I put sweet bazil, and thyme, and also a bit of sage! ginger, and tumeric, all cooked with the hamburger, also the rest of similar ingredients on here!lots of mushrooms, onions,large green pepper ect. i found the ginger seems to help with the tummy gas afterwards for some~ i cook all ing. in with the hamburger, then add sauces what ever u prefer, i use tom. sauce, tom. soup, 1 can, kidney beans, of course! and 1 small can of ordinary beans with tom sauce, sometimes i'll put a bit of kernel corn in also, optional though,i will try the white chillie fer sure sounds soooo yummy any other recipees for the hamburger chillie i would like to have a few to try also? thanks jo~
love is all you need |
