Sounds tasty I am gonna try it out at the week-end and will let you know Very Happy

it's nice to know that people actually take notice of the recipes.

Everything i have posted is fantastic

Try the fruit and nut cup cakes they are out of this world.

I presume you like to bake.

I will be posting a recipe i've developed for the most amazing bread soon on the recipe page, watch out for it! David

You're doing a blinder...keep up the good work. And thanks for the advice about flours..Rathmines isn't too far away. i have been busy but will be trying the fruit and nut and apple sponges this weekend.
Beest wishes for 2007

Go to the Food Query section and check out the society's reply to my request for a list of approved Gluten Free Natural flours there's a lot of Society approved flours available (may have to order them. Guarantee if you make the sponges(easiest) and the fruit and nut cup cakes (a little more time consuming) you won't be dissappointed. David

These were excellent

[quote="jo donohoe"]These were excellent[/quote]

I think you are trying to give me a swelled head.

Glad you enjoyed them, i usually heat in microwave for about 20 secs
(thats after you remove the foil, and if you tear it in a circular fashion it wont pull the sponges apart)

Then microwave a small pot of ambrosia custard and pour it over the top that's what i call sheer Heaven.

Hi Dave,

You have certainly done your homework on this subject.My mother, who is 72 and being a coeliac sufferer for over 10 years is an ardent cook.Every time she cracks the secret for good bread or sponge something changes in the flour. I am going to get her to try these recipies as although not a coeliac sufferer myself I do eat a lot of her cooking.

Hi "Marya", Hope your mum enjoys the bread and individual apple sponges,
she can make 1 large apple sponge by just doing the same ie: covering the base with sponge mix
spooning apple mix (try to keep away from the sides) fill with the rest of mix.

Bake as per recipe + 5 mins or until it's a nice golden colour.

The fruit and nut cup cakes are very tasty, as is the savoury rice (preparation just takes longer)

Best Regards, David BFN (bye for now)

Moving this post up as it now has a photo attached.

Hi Dave
Theses were devine I dont normaly eat swwet stuff but I can tell you I will be haveing theese again
Thanks so much for sharing your recipes with us

Love Anne

Hi anne,
Glad you enjoyed the sponges, a lot of the recipes are adapted to make them 'Coeliac' friendly ie: 'GF'
but there are a few origionals in there as well.

Thought you were having lemon cheesecake? but maybe your saving that for another time!

It's true what they say! "flattery 'WILL' get you EVERYWHERE". Thanks a million for the wishes.

Best Regards David BFN (Bye For Now)

David,

Another yummy recipe!!! I am allergic to apples so I had to stop myself from eating the whole cake! Well done again and thanks.

Daniela

Sorry to hear you are allergic to apples, but the fruit can be replaced by
whatever you can tolerate.

I just zap mine in the microwave for 20 secs on full power and
pour over hot custard, Mmmmm sheer heaven.

Best Regards, David
