Vegan, Raw, Dairy-Free

This festive tart has been inspired by Christmas. Sweet gooey base made from almonds, roasted hazelnuts and delicious ‘caramel like’ Medjool dates. Layered with homemade marzipan and sweet, juicy cherry mousse. All topped with crunchy almond flakes and 100% cacao sugar-free dark chocolate. Making tart like that is super easy as it is raw, so no baking required. Cherry mousse can be either cooked as per recipe or made by blending raw cherries with the rest of the ingredients. You may need less or nearly none water to keep the mousse thick.

To make this tart, you need only some basic ingredients, easily accessible from the supermarket like dates, nuts, coconut oil, cherries, maple syrup. To lower the amount of sugar I have used erythritol – 0 calories sweetener. If you do not have it at hand do not worry, just use another natural sweetener like stevia, maple syrup or use local honey. There is no nastiness in this tart. No flour, just nuts so everyone on a gluten-free diet can happily indulge into this guilt-free pleasure. Instead of palm oil and sugar, I have used organic raw coconut oil, pure maple syrup and erythritol. If you are dairy intolerant – some good news for you! You can sink your teeth into this tart with no regrets as it contains no dairy, only pure coconut milk.

If you love Christmas like me, and every flavour that reminds this beautiful time of family gathering, sharing presents and happiness, then you will fall in love with this tart. What is even better if you want to send your taste buds to the Disneyworld then use sour cherries or raspberries and dry roast almond flakes before sprinkling on the top.

One piece of tart has got around 214 calories and over 4 grams of fibre, that will fully satisfy your sweet tooth without making you feel guilty. It will also nourish your body by providing a lot of potassium, calcium, iron, manganese, selenium and vitamin E. Sweet, raw, sugar-free and dairy-free raw cake you can enjoy with a huge smile on your face! How to make it? Recipe below. Enjoy!

Sugar-Free, Gluten-Free

This morning it was very gloomy outside, rain was pouring like a crazy and the puddles couldn’t handle the amount of water falling angrily from under the heavy clouds. I looked through the window and knew that all I want is nice warm cinnamon and orange flavoured fluffy crepe with delicate cream, topped with some juicy oranges and sweet blueberries.

I quickly ran downstairs… Looked if all my healthy ingredients are in a kitchen cupboard… Flour?… In! Milk?… In! Eggs?… Proudly standing at the bottom of the fridge. In! Banana, quietly begging to be used, as little freckles have already started to show up on its yellow skin. Even orange decided to join the morning party. Luckily to make this pancake batter I didn’t need any complicated ingredients and making them took me less than 15 minutes. All the batter ingredients need mixing in the blender for a minute, then frying and voila!

No oil needed to make this Crepes! Would you believe that whole portion has only 6 grams of fat?! I call these crepes FIT, as they are a good sweet alternative for everyone who wants to lose some weight or maybe is looking for a nice alternative for a healthy breakfast.

Portion like on the picture has got only 343 calories and 24 grams of proteins. It’s a perfect idea for a sweet dessert or breakfast with a great ratio of protein-fat-carbohydrates.

How come these crepes has got only 343 calories and still look so improperly delicious? By using the secret ingredient – erythritol! Zero calories sweetener that brings 70% of the sweetness of the sugar, without loading your meal up with unnecessary calories. These crepes will satisfy your sweet tooth and thanks to the high content of proteins, they will keep you full for longer. Did you know that the more protein in your meal, the more calories your body burn? Is it a magic? No way! Proteins are harder to digest, so your body needs to do an extra job to break them down… High protein content comes mainly from high protein Greek yogurt. If you are dairy intolerant you may wish to swap it for organic soy yogurt or unsweetened coconut yogurt. After filling in your crepes, fold them or roll up the way you prefer most. Did you know that apparently the most popular way to eat Crepes in France is by folding, but actually their name comes from greek crispos , that means ‘rolled up’. What a coincidence… 😉 But enough talking as I bet you have started feeling hungry already 😉 Let’s make these beauties quickly now, yay!

{Vegan, Sugar-Free, Dairy-Free}

Delicate, infused by fresh lemon juice Mini Mince Pie base, filled with the unique mixture of sweet crunchy figs, slightly sour cranberries, refreshing orange juice and festive spices, will take you back to the last Christmas spent with the loved ones in front of the crackling fireplace…

These little refined sugar-free raw Mince Pies are dairy-free and 100% Vegan. No nasties in these bites, no trans-fats,  no palm oil, no dairy either.

Would you believe that when I first moved into England a few years ago I thought that Mince Pies are made with real mincemeat? Hahahaha… It wouldn’t really surprise me if it was true, as Pigs in Blankets, Pork Pies and other Puff Pastry savoury bites are very popular in this country.  For years I was avoiding Mince Pies like the plague until somebody finally told me that they are filled with the mixture of dried fruits and aromatic dried spices. I still wasn’t much convinced but after investigating ingredients I have decided to challenge myself with recreating these beauties in a healthiest possible, sugar-free version.

Now I know that it was the best decision I have ever made and I can happily share the recipe with you. When buying dried fruit I always scan with my eyes quickly labels… Why? Because recently so many dried fruits are sweetened by refined sugar or treated with potassium sorbate. To keep these festive bites sugar-free I have sprinkled them with powdered erythritol (0 calories sweetener).  I tend to buy the crystal version and use the blender to make as much powder as I need. The sweetness of erythritol is around 70% so you may need to sprinkle quite generously your Pies. Good news?! You can get crazy with sprinkling, as the amount of calories stays the same!

This bite will be a highlight of every Christmas party. It will satisfy your sweet craving and because it is packed with great, healthy ingredients it will make you feel amazing rather than guilty! Is there anything better on a cold day than wrapping yourself in a fluffy blanket with a cup of warming tea accompanied by the healthy fruity Mini Pie? Enough of talking… Let’s make it!

Sugar-Free, Gluten-Free, High-Protein, Fit

Some mornings you just do not want to spend hours in the kitchen and… and I feel like that today! So let’s make these healthy, sugar-free and gluten-free pancakes in no time! As you know, not all my recipes are vegan, not all are dairy-free… What you can be 100% sure, they are all sugar-free and made in a way to satisfy your sweet craving! Most importantly, after eating them you can feel absolutely good about yourself!

If you are a busy bee or just care about your weight, these pancakes may be a good idea to share on a lazy Sunday with your family. To make them all you need is some basic ingredients, that you probably have in your kitchen cupboard already, one blender and around 10 minutes of your time! 8 pancakes have got only 354 calories and an astonishing 28 grams of proteins! As you probably remember from the previous post ‘How to make your breakfast FIT’ the more protein and fibre in your diet, the fuller you will feel for longer, the less likely craving demon will come with an attack!

Traditional pancakes can contain a massive amount of calories but not in a FIT version! Sugar has been replaced by banana and powdered erythritol. Besides that, white wheat flour by gluten-free flour mix. You can also divide one portion of 8 pancakes into halve and use as a healthy snack. Fresh berries are always a good idea when it comes to topping, as they are low in calories, packed with antioxidants and fibre. Perfect, delicious sweet breakfast like this will brighten up your day! If at any point you will get bored with pancakes you can always make yourself Orange&Cinnamon or Strawberry & Cream Crepes. Give it a go and let me know how big was the smile on your face on a day, that you made yourself these beauties. Enjoy!

By using coconut milk, I made these bites dairy-free. Refined sugar has been replaced by zero calories powdered erythritol and pure maple syrup.

Besides that, you can save your time by making a double batch and keeping these raw treats in the freezer, even up to a month.

Are you on a diet, or maybe you want to lose weight? You can have them too! Just skip the chocolate drizzle on the top and use fewer cranberries and almond flakes. If you like the combination of marzipan and cherries you may want to try my Velvety Almond and Cherry Pie or alternatively, if you prefer caramel and coconut then these raw sugar-free Bountwix bites will steal your heart!

Who doesn’t like Christmas? Time spent with the family and friends, in front of the fireplace, joking an laughing… The smell of the freshly peeled orange and the sound of the Christmas carols coming from the radio in the kitchen corner… These Raw Chocolate Mini Pies will be a perfect addition to the Christmas fete. Sugar-free, dairy-free, gluten-free and vegan. Packed with health benefits Mini Pies will fully satisfy your sweet cravings.

Chewy pecan and date base, infused with freshly grated orange zest and rich cacao, covered with smooth chocolate cream. Even peanut butter has its place in the cream layer!  Homemade orange caramel makes these pies irresistible. You can go even further and grate some more zest on top each raw cake. In this way, you will intensify the orange flavour sending your taste buds to the Disney World. These guilt-free mini pies contain loads of healthy fats, therefore they need to be eaten mindfully.

To make these festive treats more skinny – swap maple syrup for maple flavoured monk syrup. This syrup will be beneficial for everybody on a diet or who struggle with high blood sugar levels. By making a thinner base of the pies and skipping topping (truffles and melted dark chocolate) you are cutting a few calories off. What is more, for making skinny caramel layer, feel free to use nut drink or diluted coconut milk. They are fairly easy as all you need is food processor bowl, no cooking skills required. If you like Christmas Treats and fruity flavours, you may also like my Sugar-Free Raw Mince Pies or Marzipan & Cranberry Bites.

When you try these pies, let me know how big was your smile! Enjoy!

This guilt-free Snickers Cheesecake is far better than the one from the store. It tastes ridiculously good! What is more, it has around 6 g of protein per slice and feeding good gut bacterias – fibre. Made from scratch, brings loads of health benefits to the table. Packed with Iron, Potassium and Calcium and what is even more important it tastes soooo naughty! The caramel layer is made from potassium-rich Medjool dates and a tiny bit of peanut butter. If you like caramel you may want to try my caramel and coconut chocolate bars.

If you have a sweet tooth, a small piece of this rich cake will satisfy your craving so you won’t feel like snacking so often. The healthy fats come from nuts and organic virgin coconut oil, stabilising absorption of the sugar, providing you with energy for longer! Want to know few tricks how to make it even slimmer? Skip dark chocolate, use only half of the peanuts, crush them into smaller bites and finally swap maple syrup for zero calorie maple flavoured monk fruit syrup. All the above things reduce the number of calories per slice, at the same time allowing your hand to slide to the side and cut bigger piece 😉
