Teaching a yoga class at YogaRoots studio on 31/10/2017

Banana-oat breakfast cake Ⓥ

This morning I felt like eating something sweet but relatively healthy, hence I went to my go to banana ‘bread’ recipe by ‘The Colorful Kitchen’ and pimped it a bit with:

• A few tablespoons of coconut flakes
• A handful of crushed walnuts
• Some ginger & cardamom powder
• FYI: I used buckwheat milk & 2 ultra ripe bananas

Enjoy it warm or cold with or without peanut butter on top 🙂 (that’s the Dutchness in me).

Frangipane pie Ⓥ

Sometimes all you want is a home-baked pie. This is not my own recipe, I pimped it a bit and think it’s my best EVER Frangipane pie. The original recipe (in Dutch) can be found here.

Ingredients

Wet

• 150ml almond drink (I used almond cream, slightly thicker and so good)
• 5 tbsp of sunflower or canola oil
• 1 tub of Alpro Go On mango (or another flavour) OR 5 tbsp of non dairy yoghurt & some jam or marmalade of your choice.
• 1.5 tsp almond essence (artificial) or extract (natural)
• 0.5 tsp vanilla essence (artificial) or extract (natural)
• 120g unrefined cane sugar

Dry

• 1 ready made puff pastry (“pâte feuilletée”) – check that it’s vegan (so without butter)
• 150g flour
• 40g almond powder
• 1.5 tsp baking powder
• 0.5 tsp salt

Preparation

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C.
2. Blind bake the puff pastry for about 10 minutes.
3. Sieve & stir all the dry ingredients together.
4. Mix all the wet ingredients & cane sugar.
5. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ones and mix well (except for the Alpro fruit mixture, save that for step 6).
6. Spread the fruit mixture of the Alpro Go on the baked crust
7. Add the filling.
8. Put in the oven for 25 minutes.

Your pie is ready when you can stick in a fork in the middle of the pie and it comes out dry. ENJOY.

Optional: Let the cake cool completely and then cover with icing (powdered sugar mixed with water).
