Ever so often, I decide that I need to do some kind of #challenge.

I've embarked on an "extreme #Mediterranean #diet", in which I pretend it's 1951, & I'm somewhere in Manna in the Corinthian mountains.

Today, the challenge was to make a sweet treat.

I've decided to make a 'Fanouropita', a Lenten #cake to honour #Saint Phanourios. He's asked to find things that have been lost because his icon was found intact in the ruins of a church.

I liked the #mythology & it's pretty tasty too!

This is a photo of a piece of Fanouropita to show the inside. It is a soft crumbly texture in a caramelly brown colour, on a small round ceramic plate.
