improvisation = new inventions

what i thought i was baking was not what i ended up with.
i had already altered the recipe to my liking (because i am creative and this is what i do).
however.
when it came time to add the vanilla extract, i searched.

and searched.

what?!?
there is NO vanilla extract. (yes, i couldnt believe it either)

however again.
i improvised. and used maple syrup.

ok so i add the maple syrup. moving right along.
i beat my egg whites (which were less than. ill admit that) but i add them.
and yet something is still missing....just that it thing.

so im looking around.

and behold. BANANA. score, banana added.

however.

after the banana there was still something missing (like a crunch factor).
so then comes the cinnamon gram crackers. oh yes.


BEHOLD!
and after they were baked:

(so bear with me on this whole food photography thing, like i said...im still learning)

oh and as for the recipe (SB style of course)

banana
cinnamon gram crackers

oven = 350 degrees.
