[QUOTE="srobertson06, post: 1378580, member: 169182"] Thank you, food shopping after work tonight so will take the recipe with me and get the ingredients - just what I needed - I think it is the feeling that I cannot have a little bit of cake when life is difficult that makes it hard to stick to. My almond cake recipe is a fairly easy one... 200g ground almonds 6 large eggs 5 table spoons of Stevia powder 1 lemon zest of - can substitute grated rind of an orange or add some vanilla essence (one teaspoon) and one teaspoon of cinnamon Separate the 6 eggs Whisk the egg whites to soft peak stage Beat the egg yolks and add the Stevia, Ground Almonds, Lemon Zest Fold in the beaten egg whites Place in an 8 inch round pie dish or cake tin - 2 inch high sides required Either smear a little butter in dish then add a dash of flour - coat the dish and tip away any flour left over or line the dish/cake tin with parchment --- my one did stick but did not matter as it was for me and not to take anywhere... will be using parchment next time Bake in moderate oven - 180*c for around 30 mins - should be golden brown - test centre with a knife which should come out clean. It is usually eaten with ice-cream but I have eaten on it's own and I had some last night with some double cream - both ways were very enjoyable. [/QUOTE]
