Low Fat Banana Bread Recipe

[Eden]

Thanks Eden. I can't claim to eat healthily but I know about corn syrup and to avoid it. Didn't know it made cake rubbery though. I think I'm going to have to get some apple puree for this instead. Oh, and I forgot to say thanks itself, for sharing

I found out what it does from a recipe that actually wants the attribute....

I've made dorayaki a couple of times - it's a Japanese sweet that's kind of like little pancakes with sweet bean paste in between. The recipe I used has whipped egg whites and corn syrup. The egg whites give the cakes a bit of spongy lightness and the corn syrup gives them a bit of bounce and a little stickyness (which is useful because they stick to one another nicely after you put the bean paste in the middle)

(btw Kayro syrup is not HFC - HFC is corn syrup, but it has been chemically modified... kind of like the difference between regular oil and hydrogenated oil)

Ok, since we are off topic....what are those beautiful white buns with the pudding like stuff in them that you can get at Dim Sum?

I think you may talking about 'pau' or 'bau' which is a steamed bun that can have a sweet or savoury filling. The sweet variety can be filled with a lotus bean paste or sometimes red bean paste (I think it's also called aduki beans). A common savoury filling is made with chinese roast pork, but there are other fillings too. Looks like this: http://www.smokywok.com/2011/02/stea...ns-recipe.html ? It's common to get both sweet and savoury versions as part of a dim sum selection, at least over here and in the Far East.
