today's recipe

Today I have made a really nice cake with my little daughter. It is in my effort to make do without grains and flour, which we use too much in our diet. The cake is made with seeds, nuts and dried fruit. It is important that the dried fruit be organic (as in the non-organic varieties all kinds of horrible chemicals and additives are used). Here is the recipe: (use 1 tablespoon of everything unless otherwise noted.)

flaxseed
sunflower seeds
poppy seed
buckwheat flour (buckwheat is a seed)
almonds
hazelnuts

grind all the above into a fine flour-like consistency. Add:

2 tablespoons of cocoa powder
1 egg
canola oil or melted butter
2 tablespoons of honey
3 tablespoons of soy milk

dried raisins
dried cranberries

mix well, pour mixture in a well buttered pan, sprinkle with caster sugar, bake in hot oven for about 20 mins.

I removed the cake from the overn 15 mintues ago. There's nothing left.
