Single Serving Apple Crumble

I have a terrible time digesting raw apples, so I started baking them. This was a lovely dessert and also breakfast the following day.

My subs:

milk -> coconut milk
quick oats -> gluten-free oats
oat flour -> gluten-free flour mix
stevia -> coconut sugar

Vanilla Cupcakes

These cupcakes are super easy! The frosting is incredible; I couldn’t believe how good it tastes!!! I sprinkled some chia over them.



You can also have them with no frosting, also delicious.

EVEN MY HUSBAND ATE IT,
BUT WITH OVOMALTINE 

SPREAD hehehe...

Raw Mushroom "Meatballs"

I must say I’m just in love with the blog Fragrant Vanilla Cake. Chef Amy Lyons
 has incredible vegan/raw recipes! When I saw these “meatballs”, I got crazy. I was so eager to eat them I didn’t dehydrate because it would take too long :P (made a non-raw version in the oven).


My substitutions:

hempseeds – blanched almonds
sauce – used another batch of frozen Healthy BBQ Sauce

Drizzled some olive oil on top and baked them in preheated oven at 180ºC/350ºF. Yielded ca. 26 “meatballs” depending on the size. After 15 min, I turned off the heat but let the balls inside for another 5 min before removing them from the oven.

ABSOLUTELY delicious!!!

Served them over raw zoodles and some stripes of bell pepper.

A tip for you: I hate raw zucchini, this is something I somehow have a horrible time digesting. But not if you toss them with salt first and set aside. Check this site. It worked for me.

Amy’s books are on my wish list for my next Amazon purchase: Fragrant Vanilla Cake: Sweet and Savory and Rawlicious Desserts.

Plantain Cashew Veggie Burger

Had one extremely ripe plantain laying around and needed to find a new recipe. After a little research, I came up with this recipe, which is a mix of many I found online. It's a sweet burger that can be combined with whatever you want.




Ingredients

1 plantain (or very green banana)
2 TBS ground cashews (roughly processed into a "parmesan")
¾ cup chopped mushrooms
3 TBS grated goat cheese
oregano, salt, chili flakes
olive oil

1)      Bring a pan of water to a boil. Put plantain into it (whole, with peel). Boil for 25-30 minutes or until soft.
2)      Mash plantain and then add mushrooms, ground cashews and spices (oregano, salt, cheese, chili flakes)(oregano, salt, cheese, chili flakes).
3)      Make patties/burgers and drizzle olive oil on top.

4)      Bake in preheated oven at 180°C for 10 min. Flip patties and then bake for another 10 minutes.
