Oats-almond flour berry cake!

Sometimes I just need something nice to eat with my morning cup of coffee, and to be my breakfast to. This cake is quite delicious and moist, I keep it in the fridge and it's nice cold for this hot weather! 


As always I m trying to eat healthier! So this cake were made with mixture of oats and almond flour, no oil, no butter... You can make it with any kind of berry or without! Here is the recipe:


Ingredients:

  • 1 cup of oats flour
  • 1/2 cup of almond flour

  • 1 cup of berries or more depends of your taste



Preheat the oven on 400F. Mix first dry ingredients, and in the other bowl mix wet one. Slowly add the dry ingredients in. Grease the baking pan ( I usually use medium cheesecake pan) pour the batter in and bake for about 40 min, more or less you will see when the edges will start to detach from the pan. And you can always try with toothpick is the cake done! You have to leave it to rest and get cold, about 30 min before you serving this beauty. 

If you have guests you can put some vanilla ice cream on the top for nicer look and taste!

Oats cookies without fat πŸͺπŸͺπŸͺ

I m trying to be fit this summer... Well there is 2 month left until vacation...πŸ‘€πŸ™ˆ And after pregnancy I loveeee to eat sweet treats πŸ˜‹ That why I m trying my best to make some healthy treats. So here is one recipe for cookies, they are really good for breakfast. They have 88 calorie per piece.  And they are made without fat and white flour.




Ingredients for 10 of them:


  • 1 egg
  • 2 smaller bananas or 1 big one
  • 1 tsp of vanilla
  • 2 tbsp of honey - or you can do it without
  • 2 tsp of baking powder + 1/4 tsp of baking soda
  • 1/2 cup of oats flour ( I grind my rolled oats into flour)
  • 1 cup of rolled oats
  • 1 tbsp of cocoa, optional
  • I used 1/2 cup of chocolate chips and some diced strawberries (but strawberry give them little bit of moisture, not bad, but next time I will try something else), you can use what ever you like nuts, raisins, coconut, you make your own mix.
Preheat oven to a 340 F. Place baking paper on the pan.
As always mix first wet ingredients, start by mixing banana with egg, vanilla, honey, mix nicely then add dry items. With ice scoop apportion mixture into little balls placing them on the pan. After dividing them, use the tea spoon to flat the cookies into thickness around 1/2 inch.
Bake them about 12-15 min if you want them to be chewy, or couple minutes more if you prefer not to be chewy. 

Place them on cooling rack to rest 20 min. 
And they are ready to eat! 

Not so dense and rich, but nice to nibble something healthier with coffee or tea in the lovely summer mornings! πŸ’—πŸͺ☕☕πŸͺ

Energy bars πŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺ

I love healthy snacks that you can bring with you where ever you go, to work, to picnic, while traveling, going to a park. These bars are very good for your kids too, like a snack in the middle of day. They are like false chocolate 😊 


And very easy to made. I pack two of these to my husband for work, every morning. He really likes it. Here is the ingredients:


  • 1 1/2 cup of dates
  • 1 1/2 cup of nuts (what ever you like)
  • 1/4 cup of pure cocoa
  • 1/4 cup of nut butter ( peanut or almond)
  • If you want you may add some honey, depends how sweet you like it to be!
  • some cocoa or coconut, or more nuts for the coat
First grind the dates . Add the nuts in the  grinder with already chopped dates, add cocoa, and nut butter. Mix it until the is a nice consistency of mixture. Put the baking paper on the counter top, put the mixture, and on the top another baking paper. With a rolling pin, roll the mixture until there tick about a 1/4 of inch. Cut the mixture into a bar. Coat them with cocoa (like me)or coconut (I would do this but my husband is allergic to coconut - I love it πŸ˜”) or coat it with more chopped nuts! 

I keep them in the fridge πŸ’™πŸ’™πŸ’™πŸ’™πŸ’™
