Airfryer Rock Cakes: budget friendly ~ only 10p each!

Thank you Alan and Ella for suggesting Rock Cakes to try, who knew their history (prob a lot of you lol) but it was new to me. The Ministry of Food heavily promoted rock cakes because you didn't need a lot of sugar and only 1 egg to get your sweet fix and a lot of people, with rationing, would have been craving a sweet fix!

Rock cakes to me, bring up images of Rubeus Hagrid in his hut at Hogwarts, asking Harry, Ron and Hermione if they would like one, I think they only tried one once where there was an ominous cracking of teeth.  Thankfully mine were not teeth cracking and were really lovely, with the addition of dried fruits (left over from the xmas cake).

I hope you enjoy...

Thank you for watching, and if you like this content - consider subcribing - it really helps my channel grow.
