W´s Christmas coloured affair was found in our late grandmothers closet)
.
it was so nice to meet some of you at our Christmas market last week
we had so much fun
and since some of you really liked the baked goods
i thought i´d share the recipes
PANFORTE from Fräulein Text
since i didn´t have everything on hand i just used all the dried fruits and nuts in my pantry
and it turned out just fine
.
the Honey Cake was adapted from Jamie Oliver
(i posted a HONEY CAKE RECIPE not long ago but this one is so much better)
100 g butter
75 g dark sugar
25 g agave syrup
75 g honey
100 g molasses
zest of 1 orange
150 g spelt flour
spices as you like
10 pieces of candied ginger, chopped up
candied cherries - so very frivolous
2 eggs
heat butter with sugar, syrup, honey, molasses and orange zest
until melted
add spices, ginger and cherries to the flour - mix well
add the butter-sugar-mixture, followed by the eggs
in case the dough is too dry add a bit of milk
pour into a lined and greased baking tin
bake for 40 - 60 min at 160C
50 g cherry jam
25 g molasses
6 pieces of candied ginger, chopped up
heat everything and pour over the warm cake
(i´ll try a to bake as version of this without the eggs
as i type and i do hope it turns out al least edible)
