The Lord Of The Rings Cram Recipe

We’ve already shared recipes for honey cakes and lembas inspired by The Lord Of The Rings. Today, we turn our attention to cram, biscuit like travelling foods which were particularly popular with dwarves.

Unlike Lembas, which is also a travelling food, cram is not enjoyable to eat and is more of a chewing exercise.”

However, if you use this recipe you can make some unusually delicious cram (biscuits) which will keep for a long time. Have then as a snack or an appetiser to a meal.
