Just wanted to share this recipe that a friend of a friend gave me. It made a really convincing sponge and if i didn't know I wouldn't have guessed it was dairy and egg free.

8oz SR flour
3 tsp baking powder
6 oz caster sugar
6 tbsp (90 ml) sunflower oil
9 fl oz water
vanilla essence for plain. Bit less flour and add cocoa for chocolate.

Mix together, sperate into two round tins. Cook at 180 degrees, gas mark 4 for 10-15 mins - keep checking as it may need a bit more.

I out all the mixture in an 8 inch square tina dn added a lemon drizzle topping. it look longer to cook but was YUM!

This recipe is very similar to the old favourite I have been using for the past few years. It is directly responsible for me putting on about three quarters of a stone Smile

I put vanilla essence in the chocolate version too.

Me too greenbananas.

In fact this morning I was thinking it had been at least 2 weeks since I baked a cake. Then remember what the scales told me yesterday.

Still, one things for sure, allergy free cakes taste goooooood.
