Banana chunks in coconut batter with chocolate sauce

Hi everyone!

Do you like Indian food? Indian food is very aromatic, rich in colours and includes a lot of healthy veggies, which makes it perfect for PKUers! It's also really spicy and hot, so I  m u s t  n o t  eat it on my diet:) For those of you who don't mind hot spices or love spicy food, Indian cuisine is a good choice. What's your favorite Indian dish? Maybe dahl,  veggie korma, curry, flat breads called 'naans', papadams or samosas? Mine are definitely bananas in coconut batter, but in tummy friendly version without frying in deep oil!

Did you know that Indians love very sweet desserts? I'm not a huge fan of very sweet desserts, but I absolutely love bananas in coconut batter! This recipe is inspired by an Indian dish called 'pakora', but I've used bananas instead of veggies, replaced chickpea flour with gluten free mix and I've fried them on dry pancake pan instead of frying in deep oil.  

Coconut milk batter, banana and chocolate are such a great combination of flavors and they make low protein or gluten free diet much more tastier and varied! The bananas in batter are lightly sweet, crunchy outside, soft inside, delicious and they taste perfect with homemade warm chocolate sauce. Yum!

You can easily make a PKU friendly version of this dish. You just need to replace an egg with some egg substitute in powder and use low protein flour, for example FATE, Bezgluten, Glutenex, Taranis, Mevalia or any other PKU flour. You can also make low protein chocolate sauce using Chocotino from Mevalia, Schoxxi from Metax or Vitabite energy bars from Vitaflo.


What a shame you can't smell this melted chocolate...Yum!


What you need:

2 small bananas (the riper the better)

Batter:
♡5 tbsp of gluten free universal flour/LP flour (I used Mehl Farine from Schar)
♡one egg/2 teaspoons of egg substitute mixed with 40 ml of water)
♡1 tbsp of melted butter/coconut oil
♡100 ml of coconut milk
♡a pinch of salt
♡1 tbsp of coconut shreds (optionally)
♡1/4 teaspoon of baking powder

Chocolate sauce:
♡ semi dark chocolate (I've used 50% of cocoa mass) / Vitabites
♡a little bit of coconut milk (about 2 tbsp)

For decoration:
♡powdered sugar

What you need to do:

SAUCE

1. Melt the chocolate with a little bit of coconut milk in the water bath or in microwave to get a smooth, silky sauce.♡

BANANA CHUNKS IN BATTER

Raisin loaf with sweet crumbles

Hi everyone!☺️ Are there any raisin lovers? Or yeast cake lovers? I know that people are divided into raisin lovers and raisin haters! I like raisins, they are full of magnesium, potassium and boron. Did you know that raisins contain resveratrol, an antioxidant that protects cells against damage?

Below is the PKU version!☺️ For those who must follow the low protein medical diet, 100 g of raisins contain: Kcal: 286 Fats: 0,5 g Carbs: 64,7 g Protein: 2,30 g Phe: 85 mg Values from  PKU Connect ☺️ You can use them as exchanges.☺️ I was inspired by the recipe for  Gluten Free Challah  from  The Gluten Free Mom ☺️ What you need: DOUGH ♡1 glass of gluten free mix for bread* (I used  Schar's mix B  ) ♡ 25 g of lactose free butter* ♡1 egg* ♡60 ml of rice milk* (
