Here’s another healthy cake for you to try - it contains very little fat (especially if you use skimmed milk) and is a real tasty treat for all the family… Honey Fruit Loaf 175 g (6 oz) wholemeal flour Pre-heat oven to 170°C (325°C, Gas Mark 3) and grease a 450g (1 lb) loaf tin. Melt the honey, treacle and half the milk in a pan on a low heat. Dissole the bicarbonate of soda in the rest of the milk and add to the pan. Mix the flour and salt together, make a well in the middle , and pour in milk mixture. Stir and add fruit, mixing well. Turn into the tin and bake for 1.5 hours or until cooked (check with a skewer - pierce it through the middle of the cake and when it comes out clean, the loaf is cooked).

Well, I hope you had a great Easter. I went to stay with my family for the weekend and had a great time, although we did end up drinking and eating a lot more than is good for you! Never mind - here’s a tasty Fig Loaf to help us all wean ourselves off of chocolate after Easter Fig Loaf 100g (4oz) All-Bran Pre-heat oven to 180°C (350°C, Gas Mark 4). Grease 900 g (2lb) loaf tin. Soak All-Bran, sugar, treacle and figs in milk for half an hour, until milk is absorbed. Mix the flour and ginger and stir this into the mixture. Spoon it into the tin. Bake for 45-55 minutes, test with a skewer to ensure it is cooked through. Filed under: Desserts, cakes, bread & biscuits and High-fibre and Low-fat Comments: None |
