Almond Flour Cooking

Two weeks ago we received an almond flour cook book in the mail, since then I have made; almond flour pancakes, bread, banana choc chip cake, and date scones, [Which were meant to be apricot but I had to substitute for dates].
The pancakes and bread were from the authors blog not from the cook book.

The pancakes were great, far better then I thought they would be, the only problem with them was a strong flavor of almond, I soon found by adding more honey and vanilla I got rid of the almond taste.

The bread tastes great smeared with butter and saturated in honey especially while it's still hot, my only problem with it is it does not rise.

The banana choc chip cake was fantastic it was more of a moist cake then one of those dry cakes, which I thought was great, the only problem was I'm not really allowed to have choc chips, so next time I will have to have it without them.

The date/apricot scones were great and tasted nice with honey or butter or even just by itself.
