HEALTHY OAT COOKIES-VEGAN AND GLUTEN-FREE; NO SUAGR

These cookies are my new favorite! I love the crunchy oats and the chewy inside. The recipe is super simple, you just need 7 ingredients, it's vegan if you use vegan chocolate and gluten-free with gluten-free oats. You don't need any fancy ingredients, we are just going to use a flax egg- that might be new for you. Basically, a flax egg is made out of flax seeds and water, you let that mix sit for 5 minutes until it turns into a gel. This has the same effect as an egg and is often used in vegan baking. RECIPE: Ingredients: 3 tbsp. coconut oil 3 tbsp. agave syrup 3 tbsp. nut butter 6 tbsp. oats 3 tbsp. ground nuts 3 flax eggs (3 tsp. flax seeds and 6 tsp. water) a few drops of apple cider vinegar and a pinch of baking soda OPTIONAL: Chocolate chunks; vanilla extract; any spices Instructions: Preheat your oven to 180°C/356°F. Start by making your flax egg. Mix together the flax seeds and the water and stir. Then let the mixture rest for 5 minutes. In a bowl, combine coconut oil, ...

Healthy Banana Cake (Bowl Recipe) : healthy, vegan and with included video

This recipe was first shown in my IGTV video on Instagram. But there was no 'real' recipe, so here it is. The banana cake is made for a small bowl ( 10 cm or 3,9 inches).

I haven't made the cake in the microwave yet but you can try it if you want. I bake it in the oven for about 10-15 minutes.  So let's start with the easiest and most delicious banana cake!   Recipe: Ingredients: 1 egg 1 pinch salt 1 mashed overripe banana 1 tbsp. melted coconut oil 1 tbsp.

So let's st art  with a  quick "Porridge-Guide" to help you optimize your Porridge-Skills! What are the basic ingredients for the perfect Porridge? Oats: we don't have to talk about that, I think.
