Banana, caramel protein baked oats
Oats have a rep for being boring but not mine!
I played around with different plant protein flavours and fruit to make my baked oats more fun and also balanced with the cashew frosting which is so easy to make & adds healthy fats to balance out the carbs in the oats and protein for a well balanced breakfast. You can even use this as a treat and make it sweeter, plus the sweetness comes from natural sources that also contain fiber.
Rich, sugar free, chocolate frosting!
I’ve wanted to make a good, sugar free frosting for cakes for a while now, I have finally nailed one I’m happy with. This rich, peanut butter chocolate frosting is amazing, creamy and still indulgent even though it’s refined sugar free!
I love adding this to my cakes and it’s enough for 5/6 slices depending on size. I also tested this on other people & they loved it!
Healthier chocolate banana bread!
I know banana bread was all the rage during lockdown and it always is because we very often have ripe bananas to use up in a short period of time so I did just that but put my own healthy twist on this one & also added some cacao powder for chocolate hit but is still healthy enough to have for breakfast!
This can also be gluten free by using GF flour and also vegan too! You can adjust the sweetness but I like to keep it low, letting the ripe bananas do most of the work here.
