Healthy Gluten-free Pancakes

Happy Pancake Day 2016! It’s my great pleasure to share this super easy and super yummy recipe with you all.

PancakesIngredients:

  • 4 organic ripe bananas
  • 4 organic free range eggs
  • 80gr of brown rice flour
  • 1 tsp organic cinnamon
  • 2 tbsp organic raw coconut oil

Method:

  1. (Invite friends around)
  2. Mash the bananas with a fork and add the eggs, cinnamon and coconut oil. (make sure the coconut oil is liquid so if you need to, warm it up a little bit)
  3. Mix them in a food processor or use a hand mixer.
  4. Add the rice flour and mix again thoroughly, then leave it to rest for for 10 minutes
  5. After the 10 minutes, blend the mixture throughly again and your pancakes are ready to be fried.
  6. Use your pancake pan to fry them, fry both sides for a few minutes. This mixture is so amazing, you won’t need any extra oil – it just won’t stick and will be super easy to flip as well.
  7. Enjoy your pancakes with organic berries, and any other topping you like – and make sure you share it with your friends. 😉

Welcome to the 3rd blog post of my breakkie super stars. Hope you enjoyed the last two posts and you’re ready to try my next recipe.

Breakfast for champions 3.

Mango-Chia-CashewSmoothieMango-Cashew-Chia Smoothie

Ingredients:

  • half a ripe mango/person (try the Indian ones, they are just amazing)
  • handful of cashew nuts
  • 3 tbsp chia seeds
  • 150ml almond/coconut milk (I still use Rude Health if you wondered)
  • cinnamon to dress
  • organic blueberries/raspberries to dress

Method: (easiest ever)

Put all ingredients (starting with the mangoes, than almond milk) in your blender and blend until smooth. Once done, serve in your favourite bowl and dress with blueberries and cinnamon. If you need some extra energy and protein and the crunch you can sprinkle a little more cashew nuts on top as well.

Enjoy! x

Poppy-seed cake (gluten & dairy free)

I love December, the year end with all the awesome food creations and yummy cakes.

Since I started my journey towards healthy eating – it’s become quite a challenge though. Finding gluten free, dairy free and sugar free desserts can be quite a challenge – as I had to say goodbye to all the traditional Hungarian winter treats – including ones with poppy-seeds.

I was so happy when my mum found this recipe and it ended up one of the quickest and tastiest festive cakes for me – and to be honest for my parents as well.  Hope you will enjoy it just as much as we did 😉

Recipe

poppyseedcake

Ingredients

  • 50g sultanas
  • 200ml water
  • 4 organic free-range eggs
  • 2 tsp agave syrup
  • 3 tbsp extra virgin coconut oil
  • 200g ground poppyseed
  • 100g shredded coconut
  • 2 medium sized organic apples

Method

Wash the sultanas and soak them in the water.

Beat the egg-whites with a drop of lemon juice and the yolks with the xylitol and agave syrup. Add the coconut oil, poppy-seeds, shredded coconut, sultanas and water to the egg yolks. Mix them all thoroughly and then slowly start to blend them with a hand mixer and start to add the beaten egg-whites to the mixture.

Pour half the mixture into a baking tray – the size should be around 230cm x 180cm (line the tin with baking paper or coconut oil first). Shred the 2 apples evenly and then pour over the remaining of the dough.

Bake it for 20 minutes on 180 degrees Celsius and then leave it in the oven for another 10 minutes on 150 degrees – check with a fork – once it doesn’t stick – it’s done. 🙂

Let it cool and enjoy with your favourite tea! x
