Hello Pattycake¡¡ revisiting my homepage at Group Recipes I found your nice comment for the Fig Tart and your mention to the clafouti you bake with fruit and... I love it¡¡ what a nice recipe and I do LOVE to use whole spelt flour too. I like it warm so far that I use to re-warm it in the microwave for a few seconds prior to eating.
I have booked your blog so I can see more of your healthy and nice recipes.
Cheers from Spain.

Hey there Patricia,
I made this recipe with my cooking healthy with diabetes group last friday. It was a hit! We used 4 c's of frozen mixed berries and we used brown sugar splenda to cut the added sugar in half. It tasted great and everyone in the group saw how fast and easy this crowd pleaser was to make! Thanks again.
