My groceries this week.
All dumpstered.
Gluten-free fig, sultana and coconut vanilla tea cake.
I cheated here and just used one of the Orgran gluten-free vanilla cake packet mixes I dumpstered a while ago, adding chopped dried figs, a handful of sultanas, flaked dried coconut and a healthy spooful of dried cinnamon. The topping is sunflower seeds, pepitas and more coconut.
Also, a gratuitous picture of my brand new Opinel knife.
Gluten-free vanilla, apple and fig cake.
On a high from making an awesome apple and berry cake at work this week, I thought I’d try my hand at a GF version so my housemate could enjoy it too. Luckily the other week I dumpstered a few boxes of Orgran GF cake and muffin mixes. It felt like cheating but it still came out wonderfully, if a little sweet. I also wanted to incorporate some of the many fresh figs I’ve been finding in my suburb.
I followed the directions on the packet, adding 3 peeled, diced figs, a teaspoon of cinnamon, and a teaspoon of nutmeg. I layered sliced apple on top and sprinkled the whole thing with brown sugar.
