In the kitchen

I went out for a powerwalk today and had time in the kitchen when I got back.

I made raw bars (dates, shredded coconut, peanut butter and raw cacao powder) and sweet potato brownies.

Here's the brownie recipe:

I use 252g cooked sweet potato, 160ml maple syrup, 129g peanut butter, (I didn't use oil), 55g cacao powder (I prefer to cocoa), 68g oat flour (I make my own by grinding down oats in my food processor), 61g chopped pecans, 48g dark chocolate chips and 90/140ml of almond or oat milk. These are absolutely stunning. The recipe doesn't include milk but this makes them extra gooey.

Here's the raw fruit bars:

Saved the recipes Alicia! Will try the fruit bars out if I can find all ingredients 🙏😋 it would be a nice treat now and then in lockdown!

Excellent. The fruit bars are so easy to make and taste awesome. I buy the shredded coconut, peanuts (to make the peanut butter) and raw cacao in Grape Tree. They are online but I'm fortunate to have a store in my city centre. They are healthy as there's no sugar so I eat them every day😉😋😋
