Alison Hammond has Holly and Phil in tears after forgetting crucial ingredient

Alison Hammond had This Morning viewers and the presenters in tears today during her hilarious cooking segment.

Ahead of her appearance on tonight's The Great Celebrity bake Off, Alison ventured into the kitchen to bake her scrumptious chocolate brownies.

The much-loved presenter left Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield in stitches when her mixture went very dry and she got her spoon stuck.

Stumped Alison said: "It's a little bit dry. It's not normally. It keeps getting stuck."

Alison then realised she had forgotten a very crucial ingredient - leaving Phillip and Holly struggling to keep a straight face as they collapsed on the desk.

When Holly asked if she had put the eggs in, Alison said: "It is a bit dry but don't worry you just need to go with the flow."

Holly joked: "I still feel like you're doing this in your kitchen and you're pretending to be on TV."

When Phillip told Alison she only had a few seconds left, she told him to "chill out, babes".

This came after they watched a preview clip from tonight's Bake Off, which saw Alison thinking she'd lost the oven door.

Alison had no idea that the door could slide underneath the oven - but Holly pointed out the ovens in the studio did the same thing.

Alison confessed: "I was genuinely like 'where's the door gone?' I'm a cluts. I thought 'I've broken the door on Bake Off'. I've never seen anything like that before."

"I have actual tears watching Alison trying to cook, can we have her cook more often please @thismorning," asked another.

A third agreed: "I think Alison Hammond should have her own TV Show-she's such a delight to our screen. She's always so cheery, so funny, so relaxed..."

"I generally love @AlisonHammond one of the most hilarious people on the tv. Please make food on this morning everyday, this is generally pure gold," said a fourth.
