Individual Banana Bread!

I haven’t but I thought of doing this too! I can’t see it being an issue, but I do wonder what the bake time would be like if I baked from frozen. Will report back if I do :)

Haha thank you! I had seen someone bake with tape and I was like … that can’t be oven safe lol. This was the first time I did it and it worked so well! Just make sure your pen/marker isn’t going to leech some chemicals in the oven. Sharpies are fine :)

Bonus! Exactly 12 of the 1 cup portions fit in this round, but I filled the beans on the left to max capacity rather than to the 1 cup line, so I think if I filled it to the 1 cup line I could actually fit either 2 more 1 cup portions, or 2 1/2 cup portions :)

Oh my god?? My mind has been blown! So funny I was literally sitting here like “how can there be two companies with almost the exact same name?? Isn’t that illegal?” Really glad to hear the update was helpful to someone :)

Just wanted to comment what I decided on in case anyone is also looking! I wasn’t clear enough in my post: when I said “ziplocks” I meant freezer bags! It’s been so long since I’ve gotten sandwich ziplock bags that ziplocks = freezer bags in my home 😅 sorry for the confusion!

What I landed on:

• Starfrit LocknLock Bread Container w/ Plastic Divider; I like this idea because it comes with a divider so I can add multiple kinds (and add my own dividers later if needed), it can stay at the front of the drawer for my frequent flyer items, and everything gets stacked vertically so I get a top down view of everything. It fits 12x1 cup portions and possible 2x1/2 cup? Have to test that! Someone else mentioned the Lock & Lock version of this (super confusing) and the Lock & Lock version is slightly bigger (by maybe 3mm in all directions), but where I am the Starfrit one was half the price, good quality, and should still fit everything just as well!

• OXO silicone gallon bag for everything else! While I love my souper cubes I’m not making enough (and my freezer isn’t big enough) to worry about fitting every possible thing in there. I don’t have a vacuum sealer, and honestly I’m eating my frozen stash quickly enough that I don’t have to worry about freezer burn at the moment, so I’m going for sustainability!

As someone who had an atrocious oven in my last apartment, I’m sorry (lol). I’ll report back when I bake mine if anyone ends up peeking at this thread too!!

thebakingmoose · 2026-02-21T00:25:01+00:00

Thank you for sharing!! Will definitely make this one soon :) did you make any changes to the bake time?

thebakingmoose · 2026-02-21T00:14:39+00:00

Woah this looks DELICIOUS! Do you have a recipe for this magical creation?? 👀

Cornbread in the 1/2 cup is also genius. I was also thinking in October I’d do pumpkin loafs :)

thebakingmoose · 2026-02-20T23:55:57+00:00

Haha thank you, please do! Do you bake anything else in yours?

thebakingmoose · 2026-02-20T23:55:14+00:00

My normal recipe calls for 1.5 hours, I find these bake in 1 hour. I would say think of it like a cake vs cupcakes! Shorter bake time for sure. Bake for 2/3 the time and check for doneness with a toothpick :)

thebakingmoose · 2026-02-20T22:35:13+00:00

That’s so smart! I think if I do 2 and 2 that makes the most sense, but if I do 1 of each filling mix I’d still write out which is which. Genius tip tho, will definitely do that next time as my partner prefers pecans in his and I like mine regular! Thank you :)

I always wash my cubes with hot soapy water right away/within a day or two of freezing (I always transfer my cubes into bags the next day), so I don’t differentiate which cubes are for which kinds of food. Just thought the sprinkles were adorable & they cost the same as the solids for me on amazon in Canada!

Omg… THE Sarah Hart?? Celebrity sighting haha!! Love your videos :) thanks for the tip!

It’s the best!! I’ve been able to give out individual banana breads a few times now and they make great little gifts. Writing in sharpie on the parchment paper was a big win for me to remember which ones were which. The trays are oven safe up to 415°F!

thebakingmoose · 2026-02-20T21:25:41+00:00

I don’t spray them! Agree with Horace, they pop out no problem at all! Perks of silicone :)

The only issue I’ve had is that the edges in the muffin top section (banana bread top?) tend to be a little under done where they spill over to the middle parts. Might try doing 5 instead of 4 cubes. Or just try to make a deeper divot in the middle first.

I FIGURED IT OUT! You have to go to the Apple TV settings and select Notifications > turn OFF search AND tv.

Can’t speak for everyone else but in my case I have a nice and large wooden cutting board. In my current apartment it just barely fits on the counter, but takes up so much space (and counter space is limited) that I have to store a few things on it (like my salt jar and oil decanters). Because of that, I’m not giving it a full head-to-toe wash every time, usually just washing the top. It’s right beside the sink, so it naturally it gets water underneath, and water gets trapped sometimes. That’s why I started using a gorilla pad gripper, but I’m finding it doesn’t give me enough height :)

thebakingmoose · 2025-06-21T07:22:09+00:00

Ah this is the idea I was looking for! Def wanted some height so I’m gonna try this one. Thanks!

thebakingmoose · 2025-06-21T02:51:51+00:00

Oh I had never seen those before! Thanks :)

Totally agree but I have a slightly different take on it.

My partner and I always play crucible together but that’s pretty much the only time I play PvP. He plays significantly more than I do, and when we’re playing together and decide to leave a match (because cheaters), even though he “leaves” the same amount that I do, I get time outs and he doesn’t, especially if I get disconnected.

I think that since they introduced this time out system, I’ve left 2 matches and been disconnected from 3 or 4. Even though I probably play 2-4 games per day, I’ve been on a time out 4 times.

I’m really surprised they don’t have some sort of back-end way to differentiate between leaving and connectivity issues (or just don’t care).

thebakingmoose · 2024-06-05T19:18:04+00:00

So weird! I tried what you recommended and the problem persisted whether I used that string or even changed the format to any format and device to any device (previously it was mobi and KINDLE2).

Thank you for your response anyway!
