    Vanilla cream rolls

    Table of Contents

    Ingredients

    For the custard cream (crema pastiera):

    • 3 egg yolks
    • 3 tablespoons 30 gr of all-purpose flour
    • 1/2 cup 100 gr of sugar
    • 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
    • 8 oz 235 ml of milk

    For the cannoncini:

    • 1 sheet of puff pastry defrosted (about 8 oz, 225 gr)
    • 1/4 cup 50 gr of sugar
    • 1 egg for egg wash
    • powdered sugar to decorate

    Instructions

    Start by preparing the custard cream (crema pastiera):

    • Warm up the milk until hot (not boiling).
    • In a medium-sized pan, whisk the egg yolks with the sugar, vanilla extract, and flour, until light and fluffy.
    • Add the milk some at a time while whisking, making sure there are no lumps.
    • Set the pan over mediocre heat and stir continuously until it reaches a slow boil. The cream will thicken, so be careful not to let it stick to the bottom. Lower the flame and cook for a couple of more minutes, until you reach the desired thickness.
    • Pour the cream into a glass bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let it cool down. Chill for at least one hour.

    For the pastry horns:

    • Preheat the furnace to 400°F (200°C).
    • Spray some sugar on the counter and on top of the puff pastry and roll it out to a rectangle about 9 by 12 inches.
    • Cut into 12 strips (about 1 inch thick). Easy way to do it: cut the pastry into three parts, and then each part into four strips.
    • Roll each strip onto a horn mold (conical in shape). The pastry has to overlap (about half of the length).
    • Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper with seem (end of the strip) side down.
    • Beat one egg with one tablespoon of water. Brush lightly each pastry cone with the egg wash.
    • Make sure you keep the egg wash away from the mold. It will make it harder to remove the pastry horn from the mold once baked.
    • Bake at 400°F (200°C) for about 15-20 minutes until golden on top.
    • Let them cool down for a couple of minutes and gently remove from the mold.

      • Eggs – 2 large
      • Sugar – 100 g (divided into two portions)
      • Vanilla – a pinch
      • Salt – a pinch

      • Baking temperature – 180°C (356°F)
    • Baking time – 45-50 minutes
    • Oven mode – Top and bottom heating, no convection

    Step-by-Step Instructions

    Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients

    1. Mash the bananas:
      Start by peeling and mashing 3 ripe bananas in a large bowl using a fork or potato masher. Make sure the bananas are smooth with some small chunks for texture.
    2. Melt the butter:
      Melt 60 g of butter in a small saucepan or microwave. Allow it to cool slightly before adding it to the batter.

    Step 2: Mix the Wet Ingredients

      1. Beat the eggs and sugar:
        In a separate large bowl, crack 2 eggs and add 100 g of sugar. Using a whisk or hand mixer, beat the eggs and sugar together until the mixture becomes pale and slightly frothy. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
    1. Add vanilla and salt:
      Add a pinch of vanilla and a pinch of salt to the egg mixture, mixing well to incorporate the flavors.
    2. Add the mashed bananas, melted butter, and sour cream:

    Step 3: Combine the Dry Ingredients

      1. Sift the flour and baking powder:
        In a separate bowl, sift together 200 g of flour and 1 teaspoon of baking powder. This ensures that the flour is aerated and helps the cake rise evenly.
    1. Incorporate the dry ingredients:
      Gradually fold the sifted flour and baking powder into the wet ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing, as this can make the cake dense. The batter should be smooth with no visible streaks of flour.
    2. Add the chocolate chips:
      Gently fold in 70 g of chocolate chips into the batter, distributing them evenly throughout. The chocolate chips will melt while baking, creating rich pockets of chocolate in every bite.

    Step 4: Prepare the Baking Pan and Bake

      1. Prepare the baking pan:
        Grease a 24 cm round baking pan with butter or line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking. Pour the cake batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
      1. Preheat the oven:
        Preheat your oven to 180°C (356°F) with the top and bottom heating mode. Make sure the oven is fully heated before placing the cake inside.
      2. Bake the cake:
        Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes. To check for doneness, insert a toothpick into the center of the cake. If it comes out clean or with a few crumbs, the cake is done. If the toothpick comes out with wet batter, bake for a few more minutes and check again.
      3. Cool the cake:
        Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer the cake to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.

    Step 5: Serve

    1. Slice and serve:
      Once the Banana Chocolate Chip Cake has cooled, slice it into portions and serve. This cake can be enjoyed on its own or paired with a scoop of ice cream, whipped cream, or a dusting of powdered sugar for extra sweetness.
    2. Optional garnish:
      For a decorative touch, you can sprinkle extra chocolate chips on top of the cake before baking or drizzle melted chocolate over the finished cake.

    Cooking Tips

      • Ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful the cake will be. Bananas with brown spots are perfect for this recipe.
      • Chocolate options: You can use semi-sweet, milk, or even dark chocolate chips depending on your preference. You can also substitute with chopped chocolate bars or chocolate chunks.
      • Add-ins: For added texture and flavor, you can mix in chopped nuts such as walnuts, pecans, or almonds to the batter.
    • Preventing chocolate chips from sinking: Toss the chocolate chips in a little flour before adding them to the batter. This will help prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the cake.

    Storage

      • At room temperature: Store the cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. The cake will stay moist and flavorful during this time.
    • In the refrigerator: If you want to keep the cake for longer, store it in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Before serving, you can bring the cake to room temperature or warm it in the microwave for a few seconds.

    Soft and Fluffy Pancakes – Egg and Dairy-Free

    Table of Contents

    Ingredients

    • 1 large cup (200 g) white flour
    • 1 large cup (200 g) feno flour (fenugreek flour or a similar grain-based flour)
    • 2 cups (480 ml) water
    • 1 tablespoon (15 g) instant yeast
    • 1 tablespoon (15 g) sugar
    • ½ tablespoon (7 g) salt
    • 1 teaspoon (8 g) baking powder (chemical yeast)

    Step-by-Step Instructions

    Step 1: Prepare the Batter

    1. Combine the Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, add 1 cup of white flour1 cup of feno flour1 tablespoon of instant yeast1 tablespoon of sugar, and ½ tablespoon of salt. Stir all the dry ingredients together to ensure everything is well combined.
    2. Add Water Gradually: Slowly pour in 2 cups of water, stirring continuously as you add it. Mix thoroughly until the batter is smooth and free of lumps. The batter should have a consistency similar to a thick pancake batter. If the mixture seems too thick, you can add a little more water, a tablespoon at a time, to reach the desired consistency.
    3. Incorporate Baking Powder: Once the batter is smooth, stir in 1 teaspoon of baking powder. This will give an extra boost to the fluffiness of the pancakes during cooking.

    Step 2: Rest the Batter

    1. Let the Batter Rise: Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen cloth and allow the batter to rest for about 30-45 minutes. During this time, the yeast will activate, causing the batter to rise slightly and become bubbly. This resting period is crucial for achieving light and airy pancakes.

    Step 3: Cook the Pancakes

    1. Preheat the Pan: Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. No need to add oil, as you want the pancakes to cook evenly and develop their signature holes on the surface.
    2. Pour the Batter: Using a ladle or small scoop, pour a small amount of the batter onto the preheated pan. You can make the pancakes any size you prefer, but traditionally, these pancakes are small, about the size of a palm.
    3. Cook on One Side Only: Cook the pancakes on one side only. As they cook, small holes should begin to form on the surface—this is a sign that the yeast is working its magic! Allow the pancakes to cook thoroughly on one side until they turn a light golden color. There’s no need to flip them; they are meant to be cooked only on one side.

    Step 4: Serve the Pancakes

    1. Serve Warm: Once cooked, remove the pancakes from the pan and place them on a plate. These pancakes are traditionally served warm with honey or butter for added richness and sweetness. You can also pair them with jams, syrups, or your favorite sweet spreads.
    2. Enjoy the Fluffy Texture: The pancakes should be light, soft, and full of tiny air pockets, making them incredibly fluffy and delicious.

      1. Fill Dessert Molds:
        • Take 6 small molds or cupcake liners, and press the biscuit-almond mixture into the bottom of each mold to form a firm base. Place these in the fridge to chill for about 15 minutes.
      2. Make the Ganache:
          • Melt 100g of chocolate and mix it with 40ml of warm cream to create a smooth ganache. This will be used as a topping for the almond crust.

         

      3. Top the Almond Crust:
        • Once the biscuit-almond bases are firm, pour the ganache over each one to create a smooth, glossy top layer.
    1. Chill Again:
      • Place the molds back in the fridge for an additional 30 minutes to allow the ganache to set.
    2. Serve the Almond Crust:
        • Once chilled, remove the almond crust desserts from their molds and serve. These make an excellent bonus to complement the main banana chocolate dessert.

       

    Cooking Tips

      1. Choose Good Quality Chocolate:
        • The flavor of the chocolate is key in this recipe. Use high-quality chocolate for both the main dessert and the almond crust variation to get the best taste.
      1. Add a Bit of Texture:
        • For added texture, consider mixing in a few chopped nuts or dried fruits, like raisins or cranberries, into the banana and biscuit mixture.
      2. Alternative for Ganache:
          • If you prefer a lighter topping for the almond crust, you can simply drizzle some melted chocolate without the cream to make it less rich.

         

      3. Cooling Time:
        • Ensure the dessert is properly chilled to get a firm texture. If it’s not firm enough after 30 minutes, leave it in the fridge for another 15-20 minutes.
    1. Serving Ideas:
      • Serve the banana chocolate dessert with a dollop of whipped cream, or for a more indulgent treat, with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side.

    Storage

      • Refrigeration: Store the banana chocolate dessert and the almond crust variation in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3-4 days.
    • Freezing: You can freeze these desserts for up to 1 month. When ready to serve, simply let them thaw in the fridge for a few hours or overnight.

  • Amazingly Delicious No-Bake Banana Dessert in Just 5 Minutes

    Amazingly Delicious No-Bake Banana Dessert in Just 5 Minutes

    Amazingly Delicious No-Bake Banana Dessert in Just 5 Minutes

    Table of Contents

    Ingredients

    • 2 bananas
    • 120 g (4.2 oz) biscuits
    • 35 g (2.5 tbsp) butter
    • 75 g (⅓ cup) whipped  cream
    • 200 g (7 oz) condensed milk
    • 35 g (3 tbsp) sugar
    • Powdered sugar, to taste
    • Chocolate flakes, to taste

    Step-by-Step Instructions

    Step 1: Prepare the Biscuits and Bananas

    Start by placing the biscuits in a plastic bag and using a rolling pin to crush them into fine crumbs. This will be the base of the dessert, adding a crunchy texture. Next, mash the bananas in a bowl until smooth and lump-free, using a potato masher or fork.

    Combine the Mixtures:

    Mix the crushed biscuits with the mashed bananas in a bowl until well combined.

    Step 2: Form the Base

    Press the banana and biscuit mixture into the bottom of a round cake tin, using a spoon or spatula to smooth it out. Ensure it forms an even, firm base, as this will give structure to your dessert. Set aside.

    Step 3: Prepare the Condensed Milk Mixture

    In a small pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, add the sugar and stir until fully dissolved. Pour in the condensed milk and continue stirring for about 5 minutes until the mixture thickens and turns creamy. Be careful not to let it burn—constant stirring is key.

    Step 4: Layer the Mixture

    Pour the thickened condensed milk mixture over the biscuit and banana base in the cake tin. Use a spatula to spread it evenly over the entire surface, forming a smooth, sweet layer that complements the crunchy base.

    Step 5: Add Banana Slices

    Slice the remaining bananas into thin rounds and arrange them over the condensed milk layer, covering the entire surface. This fresh layer of banana slices adds both texture and extra flavor.

    Step 6: Whip the Cream

    In a separate bowl, beat the whipped cream along with a teaspoon of granulated sugar using an electric mixer. Whip the cream until it forms stiff peaks, indicating that it’s perfectly whipped and ready to be layered.

    Step 7: Top with Whipped Cream and Chocolate Flakes

    Spread the whipped cream evenly over the banana slices. Once smoothed out, sprinkle chocolate flakes on top for a hint of chocolatey crunch. Dust the dessert with a bit of powdered sugar for extra sweetness and a touch of elegance.

    Step 8: Final Touches

    Carefully remove the dessert from the cake tin mold, ensuring the layers stay intact. Your banana and biscuit no-bake dessert is now ready to serve!

    Enjoy this creamy, crunchy, and fruity treat with friends and family. Its quick preparation time and indulgent taste make it perfect for any occasion, big or small!

    • 3/4 cup (180 ml) of milk

    • 1/4 cup (50 grams) of stevia sweetener (or alternatively 1/2 cup (100 grams) of regular sugar)
    • 3 eggs
    • 3 apples

    For garnishing:

    • 2 teaspoons of stevia sweetener (optional)
    Preparation
    1. Prepare the Batter: Begin by breaking the eggs into a bowl, adding the sweetener (stevia or sugar), and whisking them together until well combined.
    2. Mix in the Wet Ingredients: Slowly add the melted butter while continuing to whisk. Then pour in the milk and mix until smooth.
    3. Incorporate Dry Ingredients: Sift the flour into the mixture, along with the yeast. Mix until there are no lumps and the batter is velvety.
    4. Prep the Apples: Peel and core the apples, then slice them thinly. Set aside for a moment.
    Baking
    1. Layer the Batter: Take a rectangular baking dish with high edges and pour half of the batter onto the bottom.
    2. Add the Apples: Arrange the sliced apples on top of the batter layer.
    3. Finish with Batter: Cover the apples with the remaining batter, ensuring an even layer.
    4. Garnish: Optionally, sprinkle 2 teaspoons of stevia sweetener over the top for an extra touch of sweetness.

    Serving

    Once your apple pie is out of the oven, let it cool slightly before slicing. Serve it warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for a truly indulgent treat.

    Tips for Success
    • Choose the Right Apples: Opt for firm, tart apples like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp for the best flavor and texture.
    • Keep the Batter Smooth: Make sure to mix the batter until it’s free of any lumps to achieve a silky pie crust.
    • Don’t Overbake: Keep an eye on your pie while it’s in the oven to prevent it from becoming too dark or dry.
    Healthier Option

    For a healthier twist, you can substitute some of the ingredients with healthier alternatives like whole wheat flour, almond milk, and coconut sugar. Experiment with different combinations to find the perfect balance of taste and nutrition.
