Beetroot Bonanza

My mum is coming for her tea tomorrow night. She's not a massive cake eater so thought I'd better try something different for her and not too sweet.

I had loads of beetroot ready in my veg plot (I say veg plot, I mean large wooden box with veg growing in it) so thought I would give these a go...



First dig up your chosen beetroot. Wash it, peel it, grate it.



THEN...



Sprinkle in some love (as well as a bit of flour and some eggs and that)



It really is that colour with no added colourings or preservatives honestly!



Spoon into some pink and lovely bun cases (you might need a wonderful boyfriend to buy these for you)
Pop in the oven at 200 degrees Celsius for twenty mins then leave to cool on a wire rack.



Add the magic pink frosting (food colouring is what made that pink!) et voila!




Beetroot bonanza eat your heart out.

Taste a bit like carrot cake, only PINK!
