Welsh Breakfast Cakes

Breakfast is often my favourite meal of the day, if it starts off with something wholesome and tasty, the upcoming day feels happier. Often breakfast is an afterthought for many due to lack of time but I think that is a missed opportunity. Breakfast does not have to be a lengthy affair especially during the week, some recipes can be achieved quickly such as the banana pancakes which I have previously posted. This is another quick recipe, especially good if you are out of bread or want a break from toast. The welsh cakes give plenty of scope for jam, marmalade, honey, peanut butter, or anything else that you enjoy to use as a spread on toast. It can even be enjoyed naked. 

4 ingredients!

Ingredients:

225g gluten free self raising flour

50g caster sugar

110g dairy free margarine

1 egg, beaten

Breadcrumbs

In a large mixing bowl add the flour and sugar and mix together. Add the margarine in pieces and rub in to get breadcrumbs. Add the beaten egg and combine together until you get a dough. 

Dough

On a floured surface, roll out the dough and cut out discs with a cookie cutter or other round shape. 

Welsh cakes

Heat a griddle pan or non-stick pan and arrange the discs on top. Cook each side for a few minutes on each side until it has browned. 

Enjoy warm either naked or with your choice of spread! 

So, do you think Welsh cakes work without sultanas?
