Zucchini, a humble vegetable, can be transformed into a culinary masterpiece when combined with the goodness of oatmeal. This recipe for Zucchini Meatballs with Oat Flakes will not only satisfy your taste buds but also provide a healthy alternative to traditional meatballs.

    let’s gather all the ingredients we need:

    • 1 zucchini (350g)

    • 2 eggs
    • 100 grams of cheese
    • Parsley

    • 1 tsp smoked paprika powder

    Preparation

    Grating and Draining the Zucchini

    To start, grate the zucchini and allow it to stand for about 15 minutes. This step is crucial as it helps remove excess water from the zucchini, ensuring our meatballs aren’t too soggy.

    Mixing the Ingredients

    After draining, squeeze out any remaining water from the zucchini and add the grated carrot. Next, incorporate the eggs, cheese, parsley, grated potato, and garlic into the mixture. Season it with salt, black pepper, Herbes de Provence, and a dash of paprika for that extra kick.

    Now, it’s time to introduce the secret ingredient – oatmeal! Grind the oatmeal in a blender until you achieve a fine consistency, then add it to the mixture. Mix everything well and let it rest for about 15 minutes, allowing the oatmeal flakes to swell.

  • Quick 3-Ingredient Date and Peanut Treats (No Baking, No Sugar)

    Quick 3-Ingredient Date and Peanut Treats (No Baking, No Sugar)

    Quick 3-Ingredient Date and Peanut Treats (No Baking, No Sugar)

    Table of Contents

    Ingredients You’ll Need

    • Dates: 1 1/4 cups (200 g)
    • Peanuts: 1 1/3 cups (190 g)
    • White  Chocolate (or dark chocolate if preferred): 3.5 oz (100 g)

    Optional Garnish:

    • Sesame Seeds: To taste
    • Dark Chocolate: To taste

    Step-by-Step Guide:

    Step 1: Prepare the Peanuts

    • Place 1 1/3 cups of peanuts in a food processor.
    • Grind the peanuts until they form a crumbly texture. Be careful not to over-process, as you don’t want to turn them into peanut butter.

    Step 2: Prepare the Dates

    • Wash 1 1/4 cups of dates, remove the pits, and add them to the food processor along with the ground peanuts.
    • Grind the mixture until it forms a sticky, cohesive mass. The dates act as the binder, creating a naturally sweet and chewy base.

    Step 3: Form the Mixture

    • Transfer the sticky mixture into a bowl.
    • Using your hands, squeeze the mixture together to form one solid block of dough. The texture should be firm and sticky enough to hold its shape.

    Step 4: Roll and Coat

    • Take a portion of the mixture and place it on a flat surface.
    • Roll the portion into a log shape. If desired, sprinkle sesame seeds onto the surface and gently roll the log to coat it with the seeds.
    • Repeat the process with the remaining mixture.
    • Place the logs on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.

    Step 5: Create Wells

    • Using the end of a wooden spoon or your finger, make a small well in the center of each roll. This well will later be filled with melted chocolate, adding a creamy, indulgent center.

    Step 6: Melt the Chocolate

    • Place the white chocolate (or dark chocolate) in a heatproof bowl.
    • Melt the chocolate by setting the bowl over a pot of boiling water, stirring until smooth. Alternatively, melt it in the microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring between each until fully melted.

    Step 7: Fill and Decorate

    • Once the chocolate is melted and slightly cooled, transfer it to a piping bag (or use a spoon).
    • Fill the wells in the rolled logs with the melted white chocolate.
    • If desired, melt dark chocolate for an extra decorative touch and drizzle it over the filled logs using another piping bag.

    Step 8: Chill and Cut

    • Let the filled and decorated rolls chill for about 5 minutes to allow the chocolate to set.
    • Once set, heat a knife in hot water, dry it, and cut the logs into bite-sized pieces. The warm knife will make slicing through the sticky date mixture much easier and create clean cuts.

    Serving

    • These date and peanut treats are best served chilled.
    • Enjoy them as a healthy snack or a quick, no-sugar-added dessert! They are naturally sweet, making them a great alternative to sugary treats.

    Notes

    • Chocolate: You can use either white  chocolate for a creamy, sweet finish or dark chocolate for a more intense flavor. Both work beautifully with the natural sweetness of dates and the nuttiness of peanuts.
    • Garnish: Optional garnishes like sesame seeds and dark chocolate drizzle add extra flavor and visual appeal. You can also experiment with shredded coconut or chopped nuts.
    • Cutting: Heating the knife in hot water before slicing the rolls will prevent the sticky mixture from sticking to the blade, ensuring cleaner cuts.
