protein pancakes with berry topping:

My relationship with sweet food is quite obvious.

  • 100ml maple syrup
  • 3tbsp of melted plant based butter

  • a handful of cashew nuts
  • 20g butter

instructions:

  • mix the ingredients for the pancake dough with a hand whisk
  • fry the pancake in a pan with only a little bit of oil on medium heat and flip sides over as soon as a few bubbles appear on top of the pancake
  • meanwhile mix 2 tbsp of maple syrup with 20g of plant based butter in a pan on high heat
  • reduce the heat a little and add approximately one handful of cashews
  • stir occasionally and let the mixture thicken to caramelize the cashews
  • after 3 minutes remove the cashews form the oven and let them cool off
  • let the frozen berry mix defrost in a pan on medium heat with 3 tbsp of maple syrup and occasional string
  • in the end pile the pancakes up and add the toppings

hot chocolate:

On very cold winter days a lazy afternoon cuddled up in a cozy blanket just feels great. But these relaxing days during winter and Christmas season only feel perfect with some hot chocolate as well.

  • mix everything
  • after mixing heat the mixture on the oven or in the microwave (I heated the hot chocolate in the microwave for 50 seconds)
