Hope I can use my newness to excuse digging up an old thread... I use spelt in one of my favourite sponge-cakes. It's fluffy and cinnamony, great for bribing neighbours, and was a sucess at the cake-Wednesday. Cinnamon Coffeecake 75 g butter 240 ml muscovado sugar 2 Large eggs 125 ml milk 375 ml spelt 1 tsp baking-powder 1 Tbsp cinnamon. Melt butter and mix with sugar, some lumps are not a problem. Beat in the eggs one at a time until "fluffy" - will split and look a mess. Stir in milk - will look dog's-dinner ugly. Blend and mix in the dry ingredients (just to combine) - finally looks like a good cake batter. pour into muffins-tin, 20x20 (approx.) cm one-use aluminium roasting-tin, or round cake-tin. Basically anything that will hold it and survive the oven.  Bake at 175 C for cake, 225 degrees for muffins. 30-35 minutes for the cake, 15-20 for the muffins. Freezes very well. Serve as is (my favourite), split and add filling (Nutella?) or add icing of some sort.It's not a diet cake, but you might be able to experiment with sugar-replacements or honey. |

Sounds yummy. Not a great cake-maker but I'm good at eating 'em!  Will remember that recipe is here though, if I get inspired PS - I think it's good if older threads come up again - the board is growing and it's always nice to get new perspectives etc. |

We'd get on famously if you lived closer. I love baking cakes, but we're all rubbish at eating them here. : / |
