Recently I was wondering what to do with my coconut flour. I bought a package long time ago and realize that as of then, I cooked with it just once and that was actually really bad buy for me. Bad but expensive… so, I looked all over the internet for something easy and of course – tasty. I have found something interesting in one of the numerous health web sites over the internet, with author Ambitious kitchen. I have changed couple of things in it (basically because I didn’t have some of the ingredients, but mostly – because I was following my intuition 🙂 ) and ended with a great result. So, here are my ingredients for this healthy cake with lots of love 🙂  1/4 tea cup butter (~70-80 grams) – 3-4 BGN for a 250 grams package 3 tablespoons honey – 7 to 10 BGN for a kilo jar 2-3 pinches of vanilla – up to 1 BGN for a 10 pinch package 2 eggs – 2 to 4 BGN for 6 to 12 eggs pack 3/4 tea cup of milk (~150-170 grams) – 3-4 BGN for a kilo bottle half tea cup coconut flour (~120-130 grams) – 10 to 15 BGN per package half teaspoon of baking powder – up to 1 BGN for a package (~20 tea spoons spoons) pinch of salt – 2 BGN for a kilo bottle dark chocolate (minimum 75%) – 2-4 BGN for a piece half tea cup coconut rasp (~120-130 grams) – up to 2-3 BGN per 300 grams package It is not Read More

Long time ago I bought chopper with the initial idea of preparing raw candies from  nuts, dried fruits and berries, avocado, cocoa and so on – healthy, sugarless ingredients. By sugarless I mean without any added sugar (white/brown sugar, honey, peanut butter, etc.). Nuts themselves are sweet, especially gathered with raisins, coconut rasp, dried plums and figs… so, you can easily make yourself candies with healthy ingredients and to eat them all without feeling guilt. Well, there have been months since I tried to use it, but once I got used to it – this chopper really helped me a lot in my cooking experiments. After using it numerous of times to chop onion, tomatoes and numerous of other things, I finally used it for the initial purpose I bought it for.  What I’ve used for my delicious unbelievably yummy candies?    2 packages raw nuts mix (almonds, raisins, peanuts, cashews, etc.) –  up to 5 BGN per package ~200 grams a handful of walnuts (~150 grams) – up to 15 BGN per kilo 2-3 full tablespoons of coconut rasp – up to 2-3 BGN per 300 grams package 1-2 tablespoons of cacao – up to 2 BGN per 300 grams package you’ll need additional coconut rasp and cacao to powder your candies as final touch It is pretty simple to do those candies, as you basically wont bake, brew and stew – you’ll only use the chopper and your hands 🙂 Put your nuts mixture into a bowl with lukewarm water for half an hour or something.
