Doug’s delight !

We have posted this item quite a few times, it’s a lowcarb masterpiece and our friend Doug and his family love it, as do all our team.

The big one

Ingredients:
200g ground almonds
2 heaped teaspoons baking powder
3 medium eggs

2 tablespoons of butter

2 tablespoons double cream
Strawberries, raspberries and blue berries

Method:

Mix all dry ingredients in a bowl.

Melt the butter I used a Pyrex jug, add the eggs and cream, then add the dry ingredients and mix thoroughly. Add some lowcarb fruits, blueberries, raspberries and strawberries to the mix and spoon into a baking container. I used a silicone bread mould. Microwave in a 700watt for 6 minutes. Take out of the mould, if still damp place upside down on four layers of kitchen paper and microwave for a further one minute. Allow to cool then spread on a layer of extra thick cream, then add fruits to the top. A little tip, allow to cool on four or five layers of kitchen paper to remove any excess moisture. Serve in a bowl with some double cream. Serves eight.
