One of the set of recipes developed for Lakeside Joondalup for Autumn, you will have a batch of these in the oven in no time, with or without a Thermomix on hand. I confess, slightly easier with a thermo in your kitchen, but no biggie....so get over the cup measurements, I have written the recipe with just a thermo method and standard measurements...at least until I make another batch and re-measure.
