Lembas Bread

Lembas bread! “One bite will fill the stomach of a duly grown man!” Or in the books, “one will keep a traveller on his feet for a day of long labour, even if he be one of the tall Men of Minas Tirith.” -Lord of the Rings, Fellowship of the Ring.

Lembas bread is the mythical Elvish Waybread.

My take is Vegan and Gluten-free! As it is described as “The food was mostly baked in the form of very thin cakes, made of a meal the color of cream.” And sweeter than Cram.

My interpretation was that is was a soft scone like texture with a light texture and sweet lemony taste.
