The best type of flour for general home-baking is fine plain wholemeal flour, which goes under various other labels — wholemeal cake flour, wholemeal pastry flour, etc. I love devising recipes for treats that include nuts, seeds, dried fruits, fresh berries and even grated veg. Put the flour, ground almonds, oats, seeds, sugar and salt, if using, into a large bowl and mix thoroughly. Add an egg and a spoonful of the dry ingredients to the butter and sugar mix and beat until evenly blended. Once the toasted oats, nuts and seeds are cold, mix them with 100g each of chopped chocolate and raisins.
