I really like it. It was easy to make and very good.
It was good and tasted like… waybread. 🙂 It made seven pieces a little bigger than my fist for me, you might want to include that in the recipie, as well as what to bake it on. I used a cookie sheet. It is good with Mirkwood Mulled Wine (The non-alcoholic version of course) which can be found at http://www.councilofelrond.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=Recipes&file=index&action=DisplayRecipe&pn_rid=294
im really sorry because everyone liked it, and i found it quite bland. i wonder if you used british measurements, or if i just dont like it. sorry again
I really liked the recipe, but i added a dash of nutmeg and ground cloves, that made it a lot more flavorful.
I also found it rather ordinary, but some nutmeg, cloves, and allspice mad it very delicious!
What is T and C if you don’t mind my asking?
the first time I made it, I loved it, but the second time I missed something, but they still turned out good
I have a question. What kind of heavy cream can I use?
I loved this! This is exactly like Lembas should be. It has a wonderful hint of sweetness, and the texture is just how I imagined. Perfect!
T is tablespoon and C is cup
Wow!!! Only Gollum could not like this!!!
I’m off to make more!!!* Grabs ingrediants, apron, and handy cooker*
I Havent Made It Yet But It Sounds Amazing I Make This Soon
This was very nice, especially when I added some Nutmeg, Cloves and Allspice!
It sounds awesome! I’m gonna make some today to celebrate ‘Lijah’s birthday!!
How much is a tablespoon and how much is a cup? I’m not really familiar with that kind of measurements…
Roughly estimated (I don’t have the conversions right here) a cup is about 2.5dl, as there are two cups to the pint, and a pint is around half a liter. A standard cooking-tablespoon is 15ml, but you can use an ordinary tablespoon, the ones you use when you eat soup, to measure it out as well.
I imagine this would be great to have alongside other kinds of elvish dinners like soups!
