I have mixed sour cream with Marmite to make it spread more evenly over banana, and the taste is… not good. The salt overpowers all other components. It’s even worse than plain Marmite banana, because you can actually taste the banana before Marmite diffuses over your tongue. The best combination was cream banana without Marmite, to no surprise.
Marmite cream oat cookie is a surprising discovery. The overpowering saltness of Marmite is balanced by the overpowering sweetness of the oat cookie, the same way salted caramel works. I don’t think the cream is even necessary, you can rub Marmite on the cookie’s hard surface much easier than on the soft banana.
Dammit, are you really going to make me put marmite on a cookie now?
Like, I did the banana thing because it needed to be done. But this? Too far, sir; too far!
Nah, while I’m not going to get cookies just for this, I’m going to try it next time we get or make cookies.
Good luck! I just grabbed what was lying around, and it happened to be a cookie. Next time I’ll probably fry peanuts with Marmite, but that recipe is already widely known, so it’s kinda less exciting.
Yeah, very true. And it’s not bad at all. Maybe not great, but definitely an interesting and repeatable combo. Does okay with peanut butter too, on a sandwich, as long as you go super light on the marmite.
