This recipe has proved really popular with my friends.....so thought I'd share it here...this is REALLY delish - it makes two cakes - and can be frozen - can be eaten on its own or spread with butter,flora etc. whatever you fancy.....
For TWO CAKES: 4oz/100g soya flour 4oz/100g wholewheat flour 4oz/100g porridge oats 4oz/100g linseeds 2oz/50g sunflower seeds 2oz/50g pumpkin nseeds 2oz/50g sesame seeds 2oz/5og flaked almonds 2 pieces stem ginger, chopped finely 8oz/200g raisins Approx 3quarters litre soya milk 1 tbsp malt extract half teasp nutmeg half teasp cinnamon half teasp ground ginger
Method: Put dry ingredients into a large bowl and mix thoroughly, then add soya milk and malt extract. Mix well and leave to soak for about half an hour. If mixture is too stiff add a bit more soya milk. Spoon into a loaf tin lined with oiled greaseproof paper. Bake in oven Gas mark 5 or 190 deg.C. for about 1 and quarter hours or til cooked through (test with skewer). Turn out and leave to cool. (With fan-assisted ovens cooking time may be a bit less )
Ideally eat one slice a day... (but you might not be able to stop at one!!!!!

Now... Merc1...you must eat each piece VERY slowly and say with each mouthful..."this is doing me good..this will NOT give me a hot flush..."
....then if that doesn't work..you'll have to try another piece!! Good luck!!

Hi Ashbee....'cos it's got in it a lot of ingredients which contain the natural phytoestrogens (aka naural HRT rather than chemical)
......and it really is yum!!!!!

I used to make this cake and think it's lovely. Mine tastes a bit like bread pudding - I don't know if it's supposed to, lol! I'll have to start making again, I fancy some now!
