kerravonsen: tea, nuts and noodle soup (Food)

Stumbled across this on Pinterest, have already experimented with it, too.

Sugarless, Flourless, Three-ingredient Mug Cake

Ingredients:

  • 1 ripe banana
  • 1 egg
  • 3 tablespoons of cocoa (NOT drink mix, just plain cocoa)

Instructions: Puree/blend/mix ingredients together in microwave-proof container, until it forms a thick batter. Scrape down the sides and even out the top of the batter. Microwave on high for 1 minute.

What you get is a moist chocolate pudding, really, rather than a cake. But yummy. Very nice with ice-cream, too (if one wishes to indulge).

The taste may vary a bit, depending on the ripeness and size of the banana.

Variant #1: as well as the cocoa, add a tablespoon of cinnamon. Also yummy.

I also want to try one using solely "Christmas spices" - cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves. But I haven't figured out the amounts yet.

I'll have to try that!

I made banana oat biscuits this week with three ingredients:
- 2 ripe bananas,
- 1 cup rolled oats (add more if needed)
- optional chopped dark chocolate or sultanas or coconut or whatever you fancy.
Spoon onto baking tray (with baking paper) and bake at 180 for 15 - 20 minutes.
