4 large eggs 1 cup vegetable oil or 1 cup melted butter or mixture of the two 1 cup milk with a little lemon juice added 1/2 tspn grated lemon rind 2 tbspns brown sugar 3 cups self raising flour 1 cup grated coconut, fresh or desiccated 1 level tspn vanilla essence
Mix all together till smooth - if mixture too wet add a little flour, if too dry, add a little milk (typical raro cooking LOL) This mix should be pourable. Let mixture rest for half an hour at least.

I take it you mean baked goods that are suitable for morning or afternoon tea, rather than main courses. This is very versatile.
Bacon and Egg Slab
4 - 5 servings 150g chopped bacon, fried until fat runs 100g chopped mushrooms 200g cooked spinach, chopped and well drained 60g parmesan or tasty cheddar, grated 10 eggs Pepper Salt 120g thinly sliced tomato
Line a cake tin or baking dish with non stick paper, then spread over bacon and mushrooms (this also helps to hold the sides of the paper out). Put the eggs into a bowl and mix to combine yolks and whites, then add salt and pepper, spinach and cheese. Mix well, then pour over bacon and mushrooms. Spread out, arrange sliced tomato on top Bake 180g in pre-heated oven until just set.
This reheats well and is nice cold
Variations
Ham and asparagus with gruyere or blue cheese
Hot-smoked salmon, feta and spinach with a little mint or oregano

Leek & Potato Frittata 1 leek 2 Large Potatoes 1T Olive oil 4 Rashers Bacon 8 Eggs Salt & Pepper
Cut the leeks in half - wash them and slice them (about 5mm slices) Cube the 2 potato's into 1cm cubes Slice the bacon. Gently fry all of the above in the 1T olive oil until potatoes almost cooked
I transferred the above mx into my square silicone baker. Beat up the eggs with some salt and pepper - poured over the mix. Sprinkled with some grated cheese (and I also added some pumpkin, sunflower & sesame seeds - you could miss these out but I had some in the pantry and they give the top a lovely flavour - And make it look like "café" food)
It was delicious - even meat & 3 veg hubby liked it.

I've got a dozen quail eggs to do something with. Any suggestions other than hard-boiling them?

Eggs freeze quite well. break into patty pans and freeze individually. once frozen. bag up. Will keep well for about 3 months. Defrost and use as normal

I have 4 chickens scratching around my garden and they are oblivious to the Leek and Potato bake (incl 8 eggs) that I have just made.
Fry them whole in olive oil, add to a little composed salad of soft herbs and young lettuce (some fried pancetta would be good here, or some smoked salmon). Don't boil them as they are almost impossible to shell cleanly.

Whisk 8 eggs, add chopped tomato, chopped bacon, garlic chives, parsley, a tsp Colemans mustard and cracked black pepper. Grate a little parmesan on top then ladle into large greased muffin pans and bake at 180C for around 25 - 30 mins. Yum! That was brunch this morning served on mesclun with a dollop of chutney and caramelised onions, and the rest have been refrigerated for lunch/snacks for Tuesday.

I use nigella lawsons recipe. I makes a large one one. I use a 34 x 23 cm tin.
375g good quality dark choc 375g unsalted butter. (if using salted butter, leave the salt out)
Melt them together in a pot on slow heat. Then cool.
Beat together then add the choc mixture and combine till well mixed.
225g plain flour 250g white choc chips
Add flour and mix in then fold in choc chips.
Make sure your tin in lined then pour in. bake at 150c (reduce by 10 deg if fan forced) and bake for an hour. when cooked mixture should still be gooey but not wobble in the middle when you shake the tin.

Onion and Herb Frittata 3 TBLSP olive oil 2 onions thinly sliced 8 eggs 1 tsp salt ground black pepper to taste 4 medium potatoes peeled and boiled in salted water for 5 minutes 2 TBLSP finely chopped parsley leaves Heat 2 TBLSP of the olive oil in a large frypan, add onions and cook over gentle heat until softened but not browned (about 8 min). In large bowl whisk eggs with salt and pepper, cut cooled potatoes into 1/2 cm thin slices and stir into the egg with onions and parsley, make sure all the potato slices are separated and coated with egg. Heat remaining oil in frypan used for onions, add egg mixture, as the base begins to cook, use spatula to lift it in several places allowing raw egg to run underneath. Once it starts to set, leave it to cook over a very low heat until just set through (about 12 mins). Don't be tempted to turn up the heat. Place under a preheated grill until the top is set and golden (about 5 - 6 mins) or run a knife around the edge to loosen, flip onto a plate then slide back into the pan to cook through, test by gently pressing the centre - if it bounces back it is done. Cool 5 min. before turning out onto a plate, eat hot or at room temperature.
frozen egg whites make great pavs and the yolks could be used to make custards or curds, for no wastage.
