Baking sharing & recipes

At our committee meeting last night it was decided at our cup of tea time we'd have baking brought by a volunteer member each club night. Laura started us off with her wonder Feijoa loaf.  Each month from now on we'll have 2 lots of baking from 2 different volunteers.

Laura's recipe is below

Feijoa Loaf (I normally double this to give some to the kind owner of the feijoa tree)
Boil together for 5 minutes in a large pot, stirring regularly:
1 generous cup of feijoas - diced or smushed up
1 cup sugar
1 cup water
50 grams butter
Let cool (1/2 hour or more) then stir in:
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 beaten egg
Pour into greased and lined baking/loaf/muffin tins. Bake at 175 deg fanbake and start testing with a skewer after 15 minutes. Takes 20 mins in my oven.
