[liveinazoo]

i make cakes and biscuits for my kids lunchboxs and prefer them to be either sugar free or very low sugar.

i make a tropical fruit cake and have a sugar free mufffin recipe but we need some variety!!

any recipes would be gratefully apreciated

Yes, that's right, thanks live - - I don't like it when a recipe says '2 bananas' because they vary so much

[RecursiveMoon]

I found the no sugar (+ no dairy) banana bread recipe at last :

2 large ripe bananas
6oz raisins
8oz SR flour
4oz marg
2 beaten eggs
Large pinch nutmeg and cinnamon

Add spices to flour, then rub in marg. Stir in raisins, eggs, then banana. Bake at 175C for 45mins-1hour until firm, risen, and golden.

I haven't made this yet, but I tasted it when my friend made it and it was lively. DS agreed .

Oops, it was lovely .

I've just read the thread again properly, thanks to everyone for their recipes.

Just made the bum bun. Not sure it's going to last til breakfast time! Yum!

[googietheegg]

china so pleased you've made it, and inordinately proud that the Bum Bun name lives on...

BTW it also works v well with some peanuts/almonds too, or with cream cheese on top. Oh how I love Bum Bun.
