RECIPE:
175g (6oz) Doves Farm Gluten Free White BREAD* flour
125g (4oz) Fine Cornmeal (Dunns River Cornmeal 500g - 55p @ tesco)

1. Preheat the oven to Fan-Assisted 180C or Non-Fan-Assisted 200C
   
   
2. Line 2 x 12 hole cake/muffin tin with paper cases (or refill after baking the first batch if only have 1 x cake/muffin tin)
   
   
3. Sift the flour, cornmeal and baking powder into a bowl. In a seperate jug mix the oil, honey, milk and egg together. Add the liquid mixture to the dry ingredients in bowl and stir until combined (it will be quite runny)

6. Bake for 15mins in a fan-assisted oven or 15-20 mins in a non-fan-assisted oven, or until risen and golden.
   
   
7. Leave to cool for five minutes and transfer to wire rack (or it will burn your mouth! hehe)
   
   
8. Enjoy...perfect with alpro soya dairy free custard, hot or cold!
   

NOTES:
Thank you carol! these are the best wheat free cakes i have tasted, spongey and not rock hard as are many wheat free cakes :) Although carol states it makes 12 muffins i found it is better to make it into 24 cakes (or mini muffins as i call them) as they cook better and last longer....if you can resist them!!

I am also planning to make these with agave syrup (low GI) instead of honey (as it is suitable for diabetics and i would like to make some for my second mum (my mother-in-law btw) i will update this post with quantitys to substitute with if this works!


* Please Note: Doves Farm make a Gluten Free White BREAD flour and a Gluten Free Plain White flour, I made these cakes from the Doves farm Gluten Free White BREAD* flour so make sure you buy the correct one as im not sure how it will come out as i have not tested the other one yet.
