Beetroot cake
In our organic vegetable box last week was a bag of beetroot. Fine, you might think – very tasty. However, Anne has a problem eating too much beetroot, so we wanted to find something else to do with them than just boil and eat with dinner. And, lo and behold, on River Nene’s own website was this recipe for beetroot cake. Sounds strange? Well, after a moment’s thought, I guess it’s no stranger than carrot cake and we’re all used to that one now.
So, Anne baked a beetroot cake (gluten-free, of course!) and it was rather nice. For my personal taste, it could have used a little more spice (cinnamon, perhaps) to blend the flavours a bit better, but was was jolly nice, and a good alternative way to eat root vegetables!
pax et bonum
