What have you eaten today? (Low carb forum)

[DJC3]

It's the same recipe as my rhubarb upside down cake - except I use cinnamon rather than ginger and blackberries rather than rhubarb - using Panda low carb Flour. Happy to post my adapted recipe if you have Panda Flour I can copy from my word file on my PC tomorrow morning if you'd like?

Yes please. I don’t have much panda flour left but I can always get more.

Preparations for Rhubarb and Ginger cake or Blackberry and Cinnamon
Day before or earlier that day so can develop flavours and be cooled before adding to baking tin – slow cook ( on a low temp or in slow cooker) the rhubarb with lemon and ginger root OR the Blackberries and lemon with a pinch of cinnamon. I squeeze a few lemons and add the juice and then pop the halves of lemon into the rhubarb or blackberries to add flavour but then discard the skins when its cooled.I don't use sweetener in the fruit as cake mix is sweet.
Method
Line a deep tray tin (mine is 29 cms X 18 cms) with greasproof paper. I make a large tray bake so can be cut into portions and frozen. Frozen portions can be quickly microwaved from frozen to have as a warm pudding with cream.

Put oven on at 160 fan

Melt 95g of butter and put to one side

Get out electric whisk

Weigh out wet ingredients into a mixing bowl
150g of low-fat yoghurt
5 eggs

Weigh out dry ingredients into a separate bowl
70g of Panda Flour
120g sweetener
25g Baking Powder
Ground ginger and mixed spice for Rhubarb cake or Cinnamon for Blackberry and Cinnamon cake. Add to taste I use two teaspoons as like it spicy.

Whisk the wet ingredients and then slowly add the dry ingredients plus the melted butter. Add extra pre boiled water to loosen mixture if needed.

Put the cooled prepared rhubarb or Blackberries into the lined baking tin.

Scrape the baking mis into the prepared baking tin on top of the fruit base and bake for 35 mins ( may need a few mins longer.


Ive adapted the Panda Pantry recipies to suit our tastes and also the size of tin I use. Mark doesn't precook his rhubarb for his upside down Rhubarb cake and this may suit you more. Ive put a link below to his you tube instructions for how he makes his upside down Rhubarb cake.

Thanks for the cake recipe @shelley262 it looks great, and not too taxing. I only have 50g Panda flour so I’ll have to wait now until I get more.
Today’s food started with breakfast of eggs, avocado and sauerkraut.
Lunch was a tin of mackerel with salad followed by 1/2 a toasted SRSLY not cross bun.
Dinner al fresco at a local farm where I buy a lot of my food. They have a super burger van in the yard on Friday evenings so we sat in wonderful countryside eating posh burgers and my meal of chicken breast topped with bacon and halloumi.
