Baking Up Fun with New Robin Hood Quick Bread Mixes

If there’s one thing that the average parent could use more of, it’s time. Being busy is one of the hallmark traits of being a parent and I’m certainly no exception! As a result, I’ve learned numerous shortcuts so that I can accomplish my tasks even when I feel like I don’t have enough time to do so!

Of course, a shortcut is no good if it doesn’t still produce the results I want and that’s why I was so excited to try the new Robin Hood Quick Bread Mixes. The mixes promised homemade taste in a convenient mix that could go from box to oven in just five minutes and as an avid baker that rarely has enough time to bake, the concept was a dream come true to me.

I had the chance to put the claims to the test when my sister stopped by for a visit last week. She had been expected in the afternoon but instead arrived at the house mid-morning. Obviously I hadn’t had a chance to prepare anything since she was so early, but I knew the Quick Bread Mixes would still let me serve a tasty snack with our coffee as we sat chatting!

I decided to make the Robin Hood Banana Quick Bread Mix and it really was a snap whipping up the batter. I simply combined the mix with water, oil and eggs, stirred it up with a spoon until it was combined, poured it in the loaf pan and popped it in the oven. Then my sister and I were able to chat and sip our coffee while the banana bread baked. Less than an hour later, we were enjoying a delicious slice of quick bread, fresh from the oven!

I was especially impressed with how authentic the banana flavour of the bread was. Mashing up real bananas for banana bread is actually one of the cooking tasks I rather dislike; it’s just such a messy process and measuring the mashed banana is a pain. Now I don’t need to do so anymore since I can get that real banana flavour from this simple mix!

Robin Hood Quick Bread Mixes are a shortcut that I’m going to be using many times now that I’ve experienced the convenience and the great taste for myself. It’s just one more trick I can use to stay organized and save time when a busy day threatens to overwhelm me. After all, a quick and easy treat like this one is something that any rushed parent is sure to love!
