Over the weekend I baked another lovely recipe as part Rose's Greek Bake and Taste event. This one was even easier to make than the last. It's called Fanouropita- A lovely cinnamon, orange and brandy cake.
You start with all the ingredients:
Then throw them in a bowl and mix!
Ta Dah!! It's that simple
- Except I'd forgotten to put in the orange juice, so I had to add that later- Duh!
It then goes in the oven at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes.
It really is easy. It's not just easy- but it fills the house with a lovely aroma of cinnamon and orange.
I took it with us on our trekking day out yesterday- See 52 Weeks- and it travels really well. i.e it doesn't go all flat and squidgy when you have it shoved in your rucksack. It met favourable opinion all round and there was even some left for seconds- we needed it- we had worked hard- Honest!
Even better, I had some left over and made it even more scrumptious by warming it through with a little more orange juice and brandy, then eating it with ice cream.
What a nice way to finish off the weekend:)

ReplyDeleteThanks for the comments and sharing your lovely recipes. Even though the Bake and taste deadline is up I will certainly be continuing to try some more Greek baking.Ευχαριστώ
ReplyDeleteYum! Thank you for sharing the recipe!
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome. I might even try and make some more bakes :)
DeleteI like the idea of serving it warm with ice cream!
ReplyDeleteOh so good- but then ice cream is good with everything! But not sausages!- I was once asked by my class what my favourite food was I said sausages and Ice Cream- they went 'eugh' and gave me a very strange look, until I explained that I didn't eat them together..!
DeleteHi Amanda - thanks for stopping by my blog. This cake looks divine. Thanks for sharing the recipe.

oh, well let me know if you do and tell me what you think.:)
DeleteThat sounds and looks just lovely and I like the addition of the ice cream. I've got to try this one too, yesterday I made those twisted biscuits on Rose's blog, they were lovely.
ReplyDeleteOh I'm pleased you did cos I tried and couldn't twist them- they ended up as small round biscuits- still tasted ok though- hope yours were in a better state than mine!
