This is a gluten-free banana cake I put together for a friend of mine. It’s a nice, easy cake to put together, and good for afternoon tea, as it’s solid, but not too sweet. I must admit, I had my…
Angelique’s Banana Bread
Category: low fructose
I’m not all that sure what constitutes low fructose. I know it means wheat free and that most fruits and a lot of vegetables need to be avoided, but there seems to be a fair bit of difference between what people can and can’t eat. If I’ve categorised it as low fructose, that means that someone with fructose intolerance has approved the ingredients as being things she can eat, but you should probably check for yourself, in case you are more sensitive.
Recipe: Eggplant Tarts
My brother and I have an annual tradition for Christmas, where his gift to me is a ticket to one day of the Boxing Day test, and mine to him is a picnic lunch for my brother and sister-in-law and…
Recipe: Christmassy Almond Butter Cookies (vegan and gluten free and almost healthy)
Ah, December. No matter what I do, it seems to get away from me, and this year, more than ever. I wound up doing most of my Christmas Baking last weekend – all day on Sunday, in fact – and…
Recipe: Strawberry, Pomegranate and Lemon Herman Cake, with Vegan potential
“Vegan potential?” I hear you ask. Well, yes. My Herman cake can never be vegan, because he was drinking cow’s milk when I got him, and even if I started feeding him almond milk or soy milk now, he would…
Recipe: Rose-Scented Sugar
And what is this? A genuine post from Germanz, that’s what. On a genuine German keyboard, too, which is tripping me up every time I try to punctuate anything or use a Y or a Z. This may need to…
Recipe: Mini and Terribly Inauthentic Croquembouche
Je suis à Paris! Et alors il faut écrire une recette typiquement Française, n’est pas? This is another time-travelling post (spooky!), which is always a risk. I’ll look pretty silly if I perish in a glacier last week and then…
Recipe: Lisa’s Low Fructose Gingerbread Bliss Balls
I’m procrastinating from packing. I don’t know why I’m so scared of packing, but I totally am, which means that instead of packing I have resorted to things like cleaning the bathroom, baking cakes (so that Andrew still feels loved…
Recipe: Teeny Tiny Chocolate Hazelnut Cupcakes with Spices
I think we all knew it wouldn’t take long before I felt compelled to create a recipe modelled on those fantastic vegetable-based cakes from Red Velvet and Chocolate Heartache (also known as My Favourite Cookbook Ever Ever Ever). Of course,…
Fructose intolerance page now has recipes!
Just a note that I have finally gone through my entire recipe collection up to January of this year side by side with the list of fructose friendly and unfriendly foods I got from Shepherd Works, and have updated my…
Recipe: Easy Overnight Porridge
I’m writing this one down as much for my own use as for yours. I’ve been sort of curious and appalled by the idea of porridge for years – it looks so dreadful – but I’ve also secretly been aware…
