Beorn’s Honey Cake

Can a cake be healthy? In this Nerdie Foodie’s book, yes it can. These super gorgeous honey cakes are made with a 50/50 ration of cornmeal and all-purpose flour. You could even experiment and see how it turns out with whole wheat flour for more fibre content. Paula (Gobble the Cook) shares with us her Lord of the Rings inspired recipe here!
