Ingredients
200 g (8oz) Juvela Gluten-Free Mix | |
75 g (3oz) caster sugar | |
½ tsp mixed spice | |
½ tsp baking powder | |
50 g (2oz) butter, cut into small pieces | |
50 g (2oz) lard cut into small pieces, plus extra for frying | |
50 g (2oz) currants | |
1 medium egg, lightly beaten | |
Splash of milk |
Method
- Place the Mix, sugar, mixed spice and baking powder into a bowl.
- Rub in the butter and lard until crumbly, then stir in the currants.
- Add the beaten egg and bring the mixture together until you have soft dough, add a little milk if necessary - it should be the same consistency as shortcrust pastry.
- Roll out the dough on a work surface sprinkled with Mix to approx 1cm thick.
- Cut out rounds using a 6cm cutter, re-rolling any trimmings.
- Preheat a flat griddle pan or heavy frying pan over a medium heat and lightly grease with lard.
- Cook the Welsh cakes in batches, for about 3 minutes each side, until golden brown, crisp and cooked through.
- Whilst hot, sprinkle with caster sugar. Best served warm or spread with butter and jam for an extra treat.
