Orange Brownie

 What are two of the best things you could put together? What are two of the weirdest things you could put together? The answer is one amazing, fantastic, fabulous recipe (drummmm rolllllll)

ORANGE BROWNIE!

I have made this recipe at least twice a week over the past few weeks. It is an amazing after workout snack! So again why am I wasting your time reading this? Lets jump in!

What you will need:

1 cup walnuts

1 cup orange juice

1 cup oatmeal

2 T cinnamon

3/4 cup cocoa or carob powder

1/2 cup chocolate chips

1 egg

1 T baking powder

~Preheat oven to 350~

Mix walnuts and orange juice in a high power blender or food processor. Add oatmeal and make sure the walnuts, oatmeal, and orange juice are a very liquidy paste. Now it gets super simple! Add everything else mix, scrape into a greased pan, wait 30-40 minutes and

ENJOY!



Guilt Free Nutella

This is possibly my new favorite recipe! It is a guilt free NUTELLA it does not get any better than that! I would bore you with the details of how great this is but honestly it would just be wasting the time that could be spent making and enjoying this lovely recipe!!! 

What you will need:

1 cup walnuts

2 T maple syrup

2 T cocoa powder or carob powder

2 T milk

1 t vanilla

1/2 cup of chocolate chips

Put your walnuts into the blender or food processor until they are finely ground. Throw in the rest and mix!

And ENJOY!!!!!

P.s. amazing with bananas!!!

Gluten Free Healthy Waffles

BREAKFAST! This is my personal favorite meal of the day and no matter how hot it is outside I will still make a warm breakfast and this has to be my favorite. Especially since it's so easy! My dad who really doesn't like anything semi-healthy likes these.

(Sorry for the poor quality of the pictures they were taken at 6 AM and it was really dark.)

What you will need:

1 banana  

1 cup of oatmeal

1/2 cup of water

1T of vanilla

You can add fruit or you can leave the waffles plain.  I sprinkle cranberries on top of the batter once it is in the waffle maker.

Put everything except the fruit (if you are doing fruit) in the blender. You can, of course, mix it up and stick in the fridge but I prefer to make them fresh.

This will make around 4 waffles.  I usually double the batch and my family and I eat them for the next couple days.

This is also a great after workout breakfast!

Almond Coconut Macrons

Hello and happy Saturday.  The weekend has finally come (sigh). In celebration of this marvelous day I have put together one of my most tried and true recipes. If you like coconut you will love this!!!

What you will need:

1 T vanilla 

1/3 cup of sugar

2 cups coconut 

1 cup almond (or really any nut walnuts are amazing!!)

Preheat oven to 350 

Blend all ingredients in the blender or food processor and your good to go!!

Stick them on a sprayed baking sheet and bake for 20 min on 350. 

Hope you enjoy!! Have a lovely weekend!!!

Gluten Free Breakfast Souffle

Greetings!

Today we have a breakfast dessert combo! You can eat this with your toast in the morning or with ice-cream after dinner... or just frankly for dinner (hehehe). This recipe is truly the only way we can get my brother out of bed sometimes!

What you will need:

5 Eggs

2 t of almond or vanilla extract

2 T maple syrup

3 t of cinnamon

2 cup of fruit (I used raspberries)

cook for 20-30 minutes depending on the size of your pan(s).



Heat oven to 350

Start out by separating your whites from the yolks.

Set aside the yolk.  

Whip the whites for a few minutes until there is peaks. 

Mix your egg whites, maple syrup, yolks, and cinnamon together. 

1 cup of raspberries in each pie pan. 

Put your lovely batter on top of your raspberries and stick in the heated oven for 20-30 minutes.  This is good the next day too.

You can really make any variation of this just as the original author (Primally Inspired) said.

Good luck!
