Please let me know if you find any good ones. I do have a spelt recipe in my file that I would like to try. It is from Bob's Red Mill. The recipe calls for margarine. If you would like to avoid the transfats found in margarine, I highly recommend Earth Balance Buttery Sticks. They are non-dairy. I'll let you know if I find any more good spelt recipes. Applesauce Spice Cake Ingredients: 1/2 cup Margarine 1 cup packed Yellow D Sugar ( Brown Sugar) 3 large Eggs 2 cups Light Spelt Flour 1 1/2 tsp Baking Soda 1 1/4 Tbsp Baking Powder 1/2 tsp Sea Salt 1 1/2 tsp Cinnamon, Saigon (Premium) 1/2 tsp Nutmeg 1/2 tsp Allspice (ground) 1 1/2 cups Applesauce, unsweetened 1 cup Raisins (Unsulfured) 1/2 cup Walnuts-Baker's Pieces Preheat the oven to 350°F. Prepare a 9"x 13" baking pan with nonstick cooking spray. Place the margarine in a mixing bowl, and cream with a fork until soft and smooth. Gradually add the brown sugar, continuing to cream. Add the eggs one at a time, creaming after each addition. In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt and spices. Stir to mix. Alternately, add small amounts of the flour mixture and applesauce to margarine mixture, stirring until just mixed. Fold in the raisins and nuts. Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 40 minutes, or until the cake is golden brown- use a toothpick to test. Cool completely, cut and serve. Serves 8 Hi Gloria,

Can you offer a recipe for apple pie or a cake of some sort using spelt flour? I did make a pumpkin pie the other day with a "double recipe" of pie crust. Except for the use of evaporated milk, the pie came out scrumptious! I should have used non-fat evaporated milk. I am on a “no wheat” “no dairy” diet.

I am starting to like pound cake more and more. For the next one, I think I might try using a very soft flour such as White Lily. Southern cooks have been using that in their pound cakes for years and I don't know why it's not used more often nationwide. Thanks again for the comment. Hi Stephanie,
