I really like baking stuff, it gives me pleasure. I like eating too of course, but I guess it’s more about the act of baking rather than the act of eating. In the end – the two acts combined make for a fun day.
So I made an oat bran cake with addition of poppy seed. It turned out delicious.
Ingredients:
- 190g butter
- 150g sugar
- 1 tsp almond essence
- 4 eggs
- 100g ground almonds
- 1.5 cup of oat bran
- 0.5 cup of flour
- 0.5 cup of dry poppy seed
- 200g of dried fruit, raisins etc
- 1 tsp of baking powder
Pre-heat the oven to 200C. Whip egg white, then add sugar, yolks, oat bran and poppy seed – mix altogether. Sieve in the flour
and baking powder (earlier mixed together). Add almond essence Pour into a lined cake tin with a removable base. Bake on the
centre shelf for 50 minutes until golden brown.
