New Year, New Resolutions

22
January

While all my friends are vowing to hit the gym more and drink less, I have decided that my New Year’s resolution should be to eat more – wheat-free food that is.

I’m going to make it my mission to explore more exotic wheat-free options rather than simply cutting out pizza and buying wheat-free pasta, which is getting quite boring.

I’m following the advice in this article on how to stick to your resolutions and telling the world about my new wheat-free way of life.

I’ve already asked my Mum to keep wheat-free food in the cupboard for when I come over and I’m getting everybody at work on board too. I love baking but I never get to eat any of it so I’m going to experiment with cooking some wheat-free cakes. My plan is to take them in to work and see if anyone notices the difference – fingers crossed.

If anyone has any good recipes for cakes and muffins do let me know.

The yummiest, moistest banana loaf!
(I'm not even a big fan of bananas!)

6oz gluten free flour (Doves plain flour)
6oz natural castor sugar
4oz butter (I use Flora buttery)
2 eggs
1 cup of sultanas
2 overripe bananas
1.Mix the sugar and butter in a bowl.
2.Beat the eggs and add gradually to the butter and sugar mix.
(You can start adding the sieved flour now to stop the mix from curdling)
3.Stir in all of the sieved flour bit by bit.
(Save a spoonful to mix with the sultanas- this coats them and stops them from all falling to the bottom of the cake)
4. Add a splash of milk
(gluten free flour needs a little more liquid)
5.Mash the bananas and add them to the mix.
6.Add in the floured sultanas and stir a little.
7.Add the mixture to a half loaf tin lined with greaseproof paper.
8.Cook in a preheated oven at 180c for about 1 hour.

You can also use the mixture to make mini muffins which are great too.
