Here is something to impress the other half with, or even visitors who have dropped in unannounced.
Biscuits are my vice. Especially when I am in the garden and fancy, yet another coffee.
But not only can it be expensive to buy them. They do not do my waist line much good.
So here is a cheaper, healthier and more interesting alternative. It is so simple.
Simple Cake
Making the mix takes 5 minutes. tops.
Put the following into a bowl.
A pinch of salt
2 tablespoons of sugar...any sugar will do.
2 mugs of flour...any flour will do..last week I used Italian Farmhouse breadmix flour that I had left over.
2 teaspoons of baking powder. We do not get self raising flour in Denmark. If you are using self raising flour, you may not need the baking powder. Let us know.
1 mug of milk. Or water Or strong coffee.
Now you can add anything you have got. Raisins, apple, banana, nuts, apricots. Whatever you are trying to get rid of.
Mix it all in a bowl.
What no eggs or butter? Thats right. Its the healthy option.
Grease a bread tin with a little margerine and pour in the mix.
Put in an oven at 200 for 40 minutes.
Thats it. There are no eggs or butter in the mix.
Its great warm with butter or jam.
The good thing about this cake is that you can have as many variations as you want. I have even added coffee to mine. Its very cheap to make.
Someone please try it, so you prove I am not a fraud.
