Cashew Butter


Hey guys!

So.. you think peanut butter is good? Well... let me tell you that this cashew butter is a 100 times better!
It's so sweet and creamy!! I have been making it for good few years now and it's one of my favourite snacks, especially when I feel like eating something sweet. I used to use sunflower oil to prepare it but this time I decided to experiment with my fave coconut oil and must say it came out even better!

Ingredients:
  • Raw cashew nuts (I used 500g but depends how much cashew butter you want!)
  • Melted coconut oil (coconut oil melts in the temperature higher than 24C so if you ned to melt it, just pop the jar in the sink under hot water for few mintes)
Method:

Simply put cashews in the blender and blend until they start getting smooth (also depends if you like your butter smooth, I like it with bits so that it's a little bit crunchy) then add coconut oil to the blender and keep on blending, you will also see how much to add as you keep on blending, so add small amount first. Taste if you need to! Everyone likes their cashew butter different so you need to find your own preference!

I love to do cashew butter wraps with wholewheat tortillas or put some cashew butter on oat cakes, you can also spread it on toast or add it to smoothies!

I'm sure you will love it as much as I do!

Bon apetite!

Coconut crepes

Hey guys,

Since I don't use white flour in my kitchen, I used wholewheat one for making crepes but they always always come out really thick.. Until now.. Look at these beautiful thin crepes! And they are delicious too! With my favourite coconut flour!!

 Ingredients (for about 7 crepes)
  • 6 free range organic eggs
  • 250ml rice milk or almond milk or coconut milk- whichever you fancy
  • 3 TBSP coconut flour, sifted
  • 2 tsp coconut oil, melted
  • 1 tsp arrowroot powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt (I used himalayan pink salt but sea salt is fine too)
  • coconut oil for greasing the pan
Instructions:

Mix all ingredients (apart from last one) together until smooth consistency. Heat up the pan with some coconut oil and fry crepes!  I ate mine with sugar free blueberry spread.

They tasted like heaven, Honestly! So light!

Bon apetite!
