This extra moist and delicious zucchini banana bread (or cake) with a crunch oat topping is a combination of two all-time favorites. The deep dark colour and rich flavour come from the use of Dutch-processed cocoa powder and chopped milk chocolate.

Streusel ToppingCake Batter
  • 45 g Rolled oats
  • 35 g Einkorn berries, ground into flour
  • 1 tbsp Coconut sugar
  • 1/2 tsp Cinnamon powder
  • 35 g Coconut oil
  • 2 tbsp Mixed seeds
  • 1 Large zucchini
  • 60 g Dutch-processed cocoa powder
  • 200 g Einkorn berries, ground into flour
  • 1 tsp Baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp Baking soda
  • 1/5 tsp Sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp Cinnamon powder
  • 100 g Coconut oil
  • 100 g Coconut sugar
  • 5 g NuNaturals white stevia powder
  • 2 Large eggs
  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract
  • 2 Very ripe large bananas, mashed
  • 150 g Milk chocolate chunks
  1. Combine oats, ground einkorn flour, raw brown sugar and cinnamon in a bowl. Rub in coconut oil until the mixture resmebles coarse crumbs. Stir in mixed seeds. Set aside.
  2. Grate the zucchini on the small holes on a box grater. Squeeze shredded zucchini with your hands to remove as much excess liquid as possible. Line a standard-size loaf pan with baking paper. Preheat the oven to 180C/350F.
  3. Whisk together the cocoa powder, einkorn flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon in a large bowl.
  4. In another bowl, beat together coconut oil, raw sugar, stevia, eggs, and bananas until well combined. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Fold in zucchini and chocolate chunks.
  5. Scrape the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle the streusel over. Bake in the middle of hot oven for about 60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan to wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

http://schneiderchen.de | © 2015 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com


For this simple, healthy, light yet incredibly satisfying salad, nutty, chewy ancient einkorn berries-the most primitive of any wheat on earth are blended with fresh blackberries, roasted peanuts, and herbs and tossed in a garam masala vinaigrette. It makes a great meal and also a perfect side for some roasted chicken. If preferable, you can substitute spelt or emmer for the einkorn.

SaladGaram Masala Vinaigrette
  • 150 g Einkorn berries,rinsed
  • 1/2 tsp Ground turmeric
  • 1 tsp Sea salt
  • 500 ml Water
  • 150 g Blackberries
  • 80 g Peanuts, roasted and salted
  • 3 stalk Scallions, thinly sliced
  • Some mint leaves, coarsely chopped
  • 2 tbsp Fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp White balsamic vinegar
  • 2 Garlic cloves, finely minced
  • 1 tsp Fresh grated ginger root
  • 1 tbsp Garam masala powder
  • 80 ml Olive oil
  • 20 ml Cold pressed peanut oil
  • 1/2 cup Flat parsley, coarsely chopped
  • Sea salt and ground black pepper to taste
  1. Combine einkorn berries, turmeric, salt and water in a medium pot. Bring to a boil over high heat, reduce to a simmer and cook uncovered for 55 to 65 minutes or until the einkorn berries are tender. Drain and let cool slightly. While the einkorn berries are cooking, make the vinaigrette. Combine lemon juice, white balsamic vinegar, garlic, ginger and garam masala in a bowl. Slowly whisk in olive oil and peanut oil. Stir in chopped parsley.
  2. To assemble salad, stir in enough vinaigrette to moisten the warm wheat berries. Add blackberries, roasted peanuts, scallions and mint and gently toss to combine. Taste and season with salt and pepper.

Friday, August 28, 2015

http://schneiderchen.de | © 2015 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com




These trumpet-shaped fleshy mushrooms, also known as "golden chanterelle" and "egg mushroom," are nutty, with an aroma of apricots or peaches. The distinctively flavoured chanterelle mushrooms contain high amounts of vitamin D2, significant amounts of protein and iron. They should be kept dry and refrigerated, and used within a week.

Chanterelle OmeletteSauteed Chanterelles with Fresh Herbs
  • 2 tbsp Coconut oil
  • 1 Small shallot, peeled and minced
  • 1 clove Garlic, peeled and minced
  • 200 g Chanterelles, trimmed and coarsely chopped
  • Salt and freshly ground pepper
  • 5 Eggs, lightly beaten
  • 4 tbsp Heavy cream or whole milk
  • Pinch of nutmeg
  • 1/2 bunch Chives, chopped
  • 200 g Chanterelles
  • 2 tbsp Coconut oil
  • 1 clove Garlic, peeled and minced
  • 1 Tomato, peeled, seeded and diced
  • Some leftover roasted chicken, diced, optional
  • 1/2 tbsp Thyme or rosemary leaves
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  1. Melt coconut oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic, shallots, and chanterelles and cook, stirring often, until mushrooms are soft, about 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  2. Beat cream or milk into eggs. Season with a little bit salt, pepper and nutmeg. Stir in chopped chives. Pour the mixture over the mushroom mixture in the skillet and turn down the heat to medium-low and let the eggs cook undisturbed for 2 minutes. Fold over and let cook another minute or so.
  1. Trim and clean the chanterelle carefully with a pastry brush. Cut the large mushrooms into halves and leave the smaller ones whole.
  2. Heat a skillet and add coconut oil. Add the chanterelles and minced garlic and saute for two minutes or until they start to become soft. Add in diced tomatoes and leftover chicken if using, and cook briefly. Stir in thyme and season to taste with salt and pepper.
