Here’s another delicious recipe for this weeks Give a Hand and Bake!

Here’s another delicious recipe from Stroke Association fundraiser, Marie, who runs the Bridgend area Slimtone healthy living classes.

We can’t have Give a Hand and Bake without Welsh cakes – especially at just around 69 calories a cake!

Ingredients

454g/1 lb self raising flour

2 medium sized eggs

168g/6oz sultanas

112g/4oz caster sugar

196g/7oz half fat butter.

How to get baking

Place flour, butter, sugar and salt in a bowl and rub together until mixture forms breadcrumbs.

Add sultanas and mix together with eggs to a rolling consistency. If too dry, add a small amount of water. Roll out to 6mm/¼” thick and use a 6.5cm/2 ½” cutter to make 48 cakes.

Coat bakestone (or non-stick frying pan) with low calorie cooking spray and cook Welshcakes until golden brown.

Delicious!

Looking forward to seeing your delicious attempts at Marie’s recipe!
