Anyway, my friend C and I are often exchanging tricks to make our meals and baked goods healthy, without compromising the flavour too much (like the cauliflower rice). I wanted this cake to be indulgent and delicious, with a bit of a healthy touch.
Enter the lemon & courgette bundt cake. Even though the cake itself does include white flour, sugar and butter, I used two large courgettes in there! That negates at least half of the bad stuff, right?
I think it turned out quite nicely - the recipe was easy to follow, and looked pretty with the flecks of yellow and green. I sent C home with some of the remaining cake, and as for the rest? I sneaked in a small slice or two, but E pretty much wolfed the lot down that evening.
Always a good sign.
