Hello everyone, hope you have a joyful Friday so far and a lovely weekend ahead! ๐Ÿค—

My mom made me delicious egg rolls so I donโ€™t cook for food today, I just made some dessert instead.

Today I made Fresh squeezed Orange juice dessert that has no sugar added and refreshing in this Summer heat! ๐Ÿ˜‹๐Ÿ‘

All you need is orange juice (about 2 cups) and your favorite choice of flour. I used gluten-free flour (1/4 of cup) and cooked in pot for about 10 mins.

As always, be inspired, be joyful, take a picture and Enjoy it! ๐Ÿ˜‹โค๏ธ

We enjoy tinned mandarins here that we keep in the cupboard for standby!

I love mandarins too. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‘

What do you usually make out of tinned mandarins? ๐Ÿ˜‹

in reply to

We put them in a dish with condensed milk usually.

in reply to

Oh like shaved ice condensed milk dessert. Have you tried mixing mandarins with salad? Hope Baby is doing well in this heat. ๐Ÿ‘

Baby is driving us crackers with her bad tempered meows over the heat!

We have had strawberries and cream for dinner tonight which we enjoyed and some egg sandwiches as we had fish and chips for lunch today.

in reply to

Oh my, I add some ice and chill my babies water in the fridge, maybe that can help Baby. ๐Ÿค” Your meals sound delicious, make me feel hungry now. Itโ€™s lunch time over here!

That looks tasty, but as vitamin C is denatured by heat, I would worry there wouldn't be much left after 10 minutes in a pot.

I wonder if you could reserve some of the orange juice and add it after the cooking ๐Ÿค” I am not sure what that would do to the texture, might be worth trying.

Or replace the raspberries with orange segments?

in reply to Subtle_badger

Thank you for saying how tasty my dessert looks! ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ™When it comes to sweet treats, often time they associate with added refined sugar and industrial oils, all junks garnishes. This would eliminate that one concern by incorporating simple fresh squeezed orange juice. Orange juice is a powerful source of antioxidants, and when it is under gentle heat, (not boiling like hot water at 100 degree, to dissolve my added gluten-free flour into smooth paste texture)of course it looses some but still remains some not all lost.

This is orange juice made into dessert beautifully that can preserved in the fridge up to 5 days with the awareness not added extra sugar or anything rubbish along and still thereโ€™s some health benefit of vitC. Thatโ€™s the perfection of my orange dessert. ๐Ÿ˜‡๐Ÿ‘Œ

If we want full experience of vitaminC in one shot, can always do Intravenous VitC treatment for maximum boost of immune system. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‘

No added whatever else, I like it as is how I made that with fresh raspberries garnished. ๐Ÿ˜‹
