Oh Ed! I so need a trip to Krispy Kreme now, damn you! ;)

How about lactose/gluten free recipes for no fat/flour? My friend can't have either and makes some lovely stuff, "fun free" as she calls them but very nice.

Not many Abers seem impressed by this cake but I and all our staff who are on SW love it. Just make sure you add 9 tbsp of sunflower oil and NOT 0 as Ive put in the recipie

Ok... from the depth of my memory

200g ground almonds
56g soya flour
two eggs beaten
skimmmed milk
1/2 cup of splenda sweetener
two apples peeled cored and chopped
blue berries or raspberries approx 1/2 cup
two tsp baking powder
1/4 cup of vegetable oil


mix together almonds, baking powder, splenda,
add eggs and beat until smooth(add a little skimmed milk if too thick) beat in the oil
add chopped fruit and berries

put in lined cake tin and bake (medium oven) for approx 40 mins until skewer comes out clean

If you do it without the oil it is much dryer and doesn't keep as well but is nice spread with low fat philly

you can replace the apple with pear or an equivalent quantity of ripe mashed banana or use chopped strawberries instead of the other berries its pretty flexible
