I’m using the Allrecipes carrot pineapple cake recipe on this one.  I couldn’t remember if I had reviewed the Paprika recipe manager app (that’s what is showing on the phone, there) so I looked into the archives and found that I had.   When I did the review I had it on a tablet but it’s handier for us on a phone.  Good use for your old retired phone!  It’s free  at  the Google Play store.  The free version limits you to 50 recipes, and you don’t get cloud sync.  The paid app is $3.  I spend a lot of time on my desktop so I have it on my Windows machine. They have it half price last I looked.  ($14.99)I’m using a new cake pan for the first time.  It has ridges on the bottom and the sides taper out.  It has some sort of coating on it.  I can report the the cake fell right out of the pan when I inverted it onto a paper lined cutting board.Mrs J is the official cake froster.  She got started on that while I was burning some chopped walnuts under the toaster oven broiler.  I turned my back on the nuts to stir a pot of soup and that was long enough to ruin the walnuts.  I decided to toast some coconut instead.

I par-boiled these for 10 to 12 minutes and then dusted them with flour after they had air dried .  Then it was 15 minutes in a 400 oven, turn, and another 10 minutes.  Dipped in a pair of sauces they went back in for about another 15.The darker sauce was honey and soy sauce in a sweet bbq sauce with garlic and ginger, the other sauce was honey, butter, hot sauce, and sweet chili sauce.  The fries were air fried for 15 minutes at 350 and they could have stood more time or a higher temp but they worked OK.
