225g(8oz) plain 85% or 100% wholemeal flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp mixed spice
175g(6oz) Barbados molasses sugar
6 tbs melted butter
450g(1lb) mixed dried fruit

Set oven to 160C(325F), gas mark 3. Grease an 18cm(7in) round cake tin and line with greaseproof paper. Sift the flour, baking powder and spice into a large bowl, tipping in the bran from the sieve too. Then put in all the remaining ingredients except for the flaked almonds. Beat together with a wooden spoon, or in a mixer, for 2 minutes, then spoon mixture into tin and sprinkle with flaked almonds. Bake for about 2 and ¼ hours, until a skewer inserted in the centre comes out clean. Let cake cool for 15 minutes in the tin, then turn out on a wire rack, strip off paper and leave until completely cold. Store in an airtight tin. Will keep for 3 months in the freezer.

Wholewheat Banana Tea Bread

50g(2oz) butter
50g(2oz) real Barbados sugar
75g(3oz) golden syrup or clear honey
225g(8oz) self-raising 100% wholewheat flour
50g(2oz) walnuts, chopped
2 ripe bananas, peeled and mashed
1 tsp baking powder
2 tbs soya milk
(Note: I often use half white and half wholewheat flour instead, also dark brown soft sugar if I have no Barbados sugar. I also leave the walnuts out if children don’t like them!)

Preheat the oven to 180C/350F/Gas mark 4. Grease a 450g/1lb loaf tin and line with a strip of greased greaseproof paper to cover the base of the tin and extend up the narrow sides.Heat the butter, sugar and golden syrup or honey gently in a small saucepan until melted. Set aside to cool until you can comfortably put your hand against the side of the pan (put pan in a bowl of cold water if in a hurry). Put flour, baking power in a mixing bowl with the walnuts and mashed bananas. Add cooled melted mixture and soya milk, mix well. Spoon mixture into tin.Bake for 40 mins, or until a warmed skewer inserted into centre of loaf comes out clean. Turn onto wire rack to cool. Strip off lining paper.

Hi.

My son has an egg allergy. At first we could have nothing with egg in it but now can have food that has egg in them but not pure egg or egg as the main component.

I found that the New Zealand Govenment health promotion website had a great deal of information (lots of recipies for egg free cakes). A lot of the recipies use cola instead of egg!!! HTH

Cola??!

I have used egg subsitute from health food shops made by this company:-http://www.orgran.com

It is based on potato starch, and very economical. I have made all sorts with it, but I generally use it now for recipes that are quite strong tasting - such as gingerbread.

My sister used to make my nephew giant chocolate cornflake birthday cakes, because he was allergic to eggs AND wheat! The best one I remember was shaped like a hedgehog. Dead simple too
