  • 4 INGREDIENT LEMON CAKE (NO FLOUR, BUTTER OR OIL)

    4 INGREDIENT LEMON CAKE (NO FLOUR, BUTTER OR OIL)

    4 INGREDIENT LEMON CAKE (NO FLOUR, BUTTER OR OIL)

    Table of Contents

    INGREDIENTS

    4 large eggs whites and yolks divided
    1 cup (227 g) granulated white sugar divided
    2/3 cup (102 g) potato starch
    2 packed tbsp (9 g) lemon zest

    INSTRUCTIONS:
    1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Generously spray the interior of a 9-inch bundt cake pan with non-stick baking spray. Lightly dust the pan with potato starch and tap out any excess. Set aside. If flour is not an issue for you, you can also grease with a baking spray with flour like PAM baking spray with flour and then you don’t need to dust with potato starch.
    2. Add the egg whites to the bowl of a stand mixer. Using the wire whisk attachment, beat at medium speed until the eggs are foamy. With the machine still running, slowly add 1/2 cup of the sugar (1 tbsp at a time). Increase speed to high and continue to beat until mixture is thick, glossy and stiff peaks form.
    3. Transfer the meringue to a clean bowl and set it aside.
    4. Add the egg yolks and remaining 1/2 cup sugar to the stand mixer bowl. Whisk at high speed until the mixture is very thick, has more than doubled in volume, about 4 minutes. When you lift the whisk, the mixture should ribbon down and hold its form on top of the mixture for several seconds before sinking in. See photo in post for reference.
    5. Sift the potato starch with a fine mesh strainer into the egg yolk mixture and mix with a spatula until evenly combined. It will be stiff and very thick.
    6. Add in 1/3 of the egg whites, gently folding the egg whites into the egg yolk mixture with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to deflate the egg whites too much. Repeat with the next 1/3 and then the final 1/3 of egg whites.
    7. Sprinkle in the lemon zest and gently fold it in to the batter with your spatula just until it is evenly combined into the batter.
    8. Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
    9. Bake in the preheated oven for about 40 minutes or until the cake is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. When you apply light pressure to the surface it should feel firm and should not completely sink in.

    Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 20-30 minutes, or until cake and cake pan no longer feel to hot to touch. Then invert the cake onto a plate to cool completely. It is important that you unmold the cake from the cake pan after 20-30 minutes and not wait too long. If you wait for the cake to finish cooling, it will start to stick to the pan. If you unmold it after letting it cool only 20-30 minutes, it should slide out easily. In addition, I found that letting the cake cool fully on a plate with the crispy meringue layer on the bottom of the plate helps the meringue layer stick to the cake and not break off as easily when cutting the cake. When cake is finished cooling, you can decorate the cake before serving. I like serving with a dusting of powdered sugar or drizzling it with lemon icing. Use a large sharp knife to gently cut into the cake to serve.

    Table of Contents

    Desserts often get a bad rap for being indulgent and unhealthy. However, with the right ingredients and preparation, desserts can be both delicious and nutritious. This healthy slimming dessert combines wholesome ingredients like oatmeal, bananas, and cocoa to create a treat that satisfies your sweet tooth without derailing your diet goals. Let’s explore how to make it!

    Ingredients

    To whip up this healthy slimming dessert, you’ll need:

    • 120 g oatmeal
    • 250 ml warm milk
    • 2 bananas
    • 2 eggs
    • 4 tablespoons cocoa (45 g)
    • 1 tablespoon baking powder
    • 40 walnuts
    • 75 g dark chocolate
    Preparation Steps

    Let’s break down the preparation process into simple steps:

    1. Soaking Oatmeal

    Begin by pouring the oatmeal into a bowl and adding warm milk. Allow it to soak for 10 minutes, allowing the oatmeal to soften.

    2. Preparing Bananas

    While the oatmeal is soaking, peel the bananas and mash them using a fork. This will add natural sweetness and moisture to the dessert.

    3. Mixing Dry Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, combine the cocoa and baking powder. Mix well to ensure even distribution of the cocoa flavor.

    4. Beating Eggs

    Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk them until they are well beaten. This will help incorporate air into the eggs, resulting in a lighter texture for the dessert.

    Mixing the Ingredients

    Now that all the ingredients are prepared, it’s time to bring them together:

    1. Combining Oatmeal and Bananas

    Add the mashed bananas to the bowl of soaked oatmeal. Mix them together until well combined.

    2. Adding Cocoa Mixture

    Next, pour the cocoa and baking powder mixture into the oatmeal and banana mixture. Stir until everything is evenly incorporated.

    3. Incorporating Eggs

    Gently fold the beaten eggs into the oatmeal mixture. Be careful not to overmix, as this can deflate the eggs and result in a denser dessert.

    Baking the Dessert

    Once the batter is ready, it’s time to bake:

    Preparing the Baking Dish

    Grease a baking dish with oil to prevent the dessert from sticking. Pour the batter into the dish and spread it out evenly.

    Adding Walnuts

    Sprinkle chopped walnuts over the top of the batter, adding a crunchy texture and nutty flavor to the dessert.

    Baking Process

    Place the baking dish in a preheated oven and bake at 180°C for approximately 40 minutes, or until the dessert is cooked through and golden brown on top.

    Adding Chocolate Topping

    To add a decadent finishing touch to the dessert:

    Melting Dark Chocolate

    Break the dark chocolate into small pieces and melt it either in the microwave or using a water bath until smooth and glossy.

    Drizzling Chocolate

    Transfer the melted chocolate into a pastry bag and drizzle it over the baked dessert. Allow the chocolate to harden before serving.

  • Four Ingredient Nougat Bars

    Four Ingredient Nougat Bars

    Four Ingredient Nougat Bars – I recall growing up and seeing this treat on the dessert table every holiday. This was one of those desserts that was saved for adults only.

    I never did understand that as I was growing up. When I got older, I started making this treat myself and although I do not understand why it was an adult only treat, I understand why they kept it all to themselves.

    Place a heat proof bowl or another pan over the first pot with the water

    To the top dish add in the miniature marshmallows, the white chocolate chips and the butter

    Melt the ingredients in the pan, over( or rather like a double boiler)

    Gently fold in the gumdrops
