I read here Eclectic Recipes: Weight-of-an-Egg that a medium egg in UK = a large egg in USA.

A standard egg, in France, weighs 60g. A weight of 60g per egg corresponds to 25oz per. dozen US large, or UK medium. A standard egg is just over 10% shell, 30% yolk and just under 60% white, by weight. For the standard 60g egg, the figures are 7g shell, 18g yolk, 35g white.

I noticed that some of you are using Ground Almonds and some are using Almond flour. Are these both the same thing? I have been searching for Almond flour for the last couple of days without success. Can any UK followers point me in the direction of some Almond flour please. x

Ground almonds and almond flour are the same. If you have trouble finding the stuff you can make your own by buying plain skinned almonds (or blanching un-peeled almonds in boiling water and skinning them yourself), then grinding them up in a coffee grinder. Just be careful not to over grind them as they'll turn into a paste.
The "flour" will be much coarser than normal flour but it's wonderfully versatile all the same.

Try googling Julian Graves for your nearest health food store. They sell 350g packs of Ground almonds. They also deliver online!

Thanks for the advice. I found some ground almonds on ebay i paid £4.85 for 1kg, i also found a Julian Graves store nearby, so i will pop along and see what else i can pick up there. Im going to try some coconut flour its very expensive on ebay i think £15.99 for 2 500 gram bags.
