Low Carb Baking

I am not sure Kaylz...although I don't see why not...most syrups are used as an accompaniment so I would say yes...my syrups should be here by the weekend...then I'm off to get the Oppo ice cream...having some with butterscotch syrup...hmmn hmmn hmmn.

Cheers for your input, may give it a go when I've got a few pennies 🙂 Germany ruined my chances in the sweepy at Bruce's work though so I'll just need to win the lottery on Saturday lol xx

I’ve eaten all my Oppo ice cream. The salted caramel was gorgeous and didn’t impact on my levels at all! 😛

gonna order stuff off amazon now then find out if ive got the rest of the ingredients. it will be next weekend before i get to try anything. This saturday I have to work 9am to 9pm. Hubby had to do sunday 9am to 9pm. he says i have to wait till we in together so he can taste stuff fresh. So next weekend it is. Still it gives me time to get the amazon order delivered. He is off fishing with his brother on saturday while im at work so hopefully ill have trout for tea.

Its always worth comparing prices Persephone...if you register with the companies they often send you links when there are special offers & sales...occasionally you'll get free postage too.

Finally got round to cooking @Vince_UK 's steak pie...just having some for my lunch...here it is in its various stages...

This is at the blind bake stage...forgot to prick the bottom but it didn't rise too much with the steam
This is with the filling...steak minced meat...onion...garlic & mushrooms
The finished article...I'm getting hungry


The pie...yes I have eaten that slice...six servings at 4.5gs carbs per portion...401 calories...this was an experiment...which I will be repeating time & time again.

I think we can do a little better now Vince it was a bit of an experiment...the recipe is for six individual meat pies however I wanted to try a large regular pie...I had no idea how robust the pastry would be or how much filling or gravy it would 'hold'...I didn't want it to fall apart as it was sliced the pastry is robust it will be able to hold a lot more filling/gravy...you could use any filling you wanted to...meat...sweet...fruit...it sliced well...came out of the dish well...although I did use a loose bottomed tin & carefully cut round the sides to make sure it didn't stick before I attempted to take the slice out then lifted it with a palette knife...I'm happy with it...having it again for supper this evening with some good onion gravy.
