"by Robin C. Poe. This is a special treat for all Lord of the Rings fans. These light, crispy, scented cakes are an attempt to recreate the waybread given to the fellowship by the elves."

Questions & Replies

  1. I have some questions on the recipe. It calls for butter, but the directions don't say when or where to add it. Could you update the recipe with some clearer directions, and maybe some pictures? Thank you!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

Strangely enough, I've become a better cook to lose weight. I joined eDiets and lost 100 pounds. Now I'm on the look out for tasty recipes that are easy to fix (I teach and often don't get home until after 5PM). In addition to my kitchen, my favorite place is my garden. I have a combination flower/herb/veggie garden and love to grow a variety of vintage or unusual plants. Because I teach I actually DO get a month off. I get up early to garden, sleep the hot afternoons away, then cook, read and watch movies. My favorite cookbooks are Crazy Plates and Looneyspoons. They are full of delicious, lowfat recipes with tons of trivia and humor. I teach science in a converted home ec kitchen. I love to use food as a teaching tool - making cheese to teach enzyme action, pickles to teach osmosis and diffusion, fudge to demonstrate igneous rock formation. I love kitchen gadgets, KitchenAid, Le Creuset cookware and my cats.
