Einkorn Vanilla Protein Pumpkin Bread With Port Soaked Raisins

Monday, October 15, 2018

A delicious, nutritionally packed quick einkorn bread filled with my Autumn favourites - pumpkin and warm spices. It makes a perfect low sugar snack or breakfast with plenty of protein. You can swap the protein flavour and feel free to use other types of whole grain flour instead of einkorn.

50 g Vanilla whey protein powder
50 g Almond meal
150 g Einkorn berries, milled into flour
2 tsp Baking powder
1/2 tsp Baking soda
1 tbsp Pumpkin pie spice mix

300 g Pumpkin puree
50 g Lemon curd
1 Large egg
2 tbsp Coconut syrup
50 g Ghee, melted
180 g Raisins, soaked in port wine and drained
1 tbsp Coconut flakes for topping

Line a standard-size loaf pan with baking paper. Preheat the oven to 190C/375F.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the protein powder, almond meal, milled einkorn, baking powder, baking soda and spice mix.
Beat pumpkin puree, lemon curd, egg, coconut syrup, and melted ghee in another bowl until smooth and well combined.
Sift in the flour mixture and fold to combine. Fold in drained raisins. Scrape the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Smooth the surface and sprinkle the coconut flakes over.
Bake in the hot oven for 30 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 170C/340F and bake 15 more minutes until nicely golden brown and a wooden toothpick, inserted in the middle comes out clean. Remove and cool in the pan for 5 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Keto Hazelnut Chocolate Chip Cookies

Monday, October 08, 2018

Rich, delicate, moist and chewy - - these easy low carbs, gluten free hazelnut chocolate cookies are perfect for grab-and-go and an ideal treat for cookie fans on low carbs or anyone who follows keto diet. If you want to make them paleo friendly, just replace psyllium husk powder with arrowroot powder. Also almonds or macadamias can be used in the place of hazelnuts.

200 g Hazelnut meal
10 g Psyllium husk powder
10 g Arrowroot powder
120 g Erythritol
1 tsp Baking powder
100 g Salted butter, chopped and melted
1 Egg, medium
1 tsp Vanilla extract
150 g No-sugar added chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 180C/350F. Prepare a large baking tray lined with parchment paper.
Place chopped butter in a microwave-safe dish. Microwave, uncovered, on high until butter is melted, about 30 seconds. Take out and cool slightly.
Place the hazelnut meal, psyllium husk powder, arrowroot powder, erythritol and baking powder in a large bowl and mix to combine. Add in melted butter, egg and vanilla and mix well to combine. Stir through the chocolate chips.
Roll 2 tablespoonfuls of dough into a ball. Place the cookie balls on the prepared baking tray, leaving 5cm between each to allow room for spreading. You will have 12 cookie balls.
Bake for 10–12 minutes or until golden brown. Allow to cool slightly on trays before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
