These recipes are all ones that I enjoy when I want something sweet but hearty in the morning. They fill me up, satisfy my sweet tooth AND provide me with the nutrients I need to help make it through a busy day with two jobs, and an active lifestyle!
Gluten and Refined Sugar Free Banana Bread –
Ingredients:
1 Cup of Gluten Free Oat Flour
1/4 Cup Coconut Flour
1 1/4 teaspoon Baking Powder
1/4 teaspoon Cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda
3 eggs
2 tablespoons all natural Maple Syrup
3 Ripe Bananas (3/4 cup to 1 cup)
2 Tablespoons Almond Milk (or milk of your choice)
1 Tablespoon Vanilla Extract
1/8 cup chopped walnuts (but you can add whatever nuts or dried fruit/chocolate chips you would like)
Mix all Dry Ingredients in a bowl:
1 Cup of Oat Flour, 1/4 Cup Coconut Flour, 1 1/4 teaspoon Baking Powder
1/4 teaspoon Cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda
Then
Mix all wet Ingredients in a bowl:
3 eggs, 2 tablespoons all natural Maple Syrup, 3 Ripe Bananas (3/4 cup to 1 cup), 2 Tablespoons Almond Milk (or milk of your choice), 1 Tablespoon Vanilla Extract, 1/8 cup chopped walnuts (but you can add whatever nuts or dried fruit/chocolate chips you would like).
Mix all dry ingredients into wet ingredients until well combined.
Pour into a greased or non-stick bread loaf dish/pan.
Bake at 350 Degrees F, for 45 minutes, flipping half-way to ensure consistent baking.
A-Z Smoothie –
Ingredients:
1 Scoop of Greens powder of your choice (I prefer Garden of Life Raw Organic Meal)
1 Scoop of Collagen powder
1/4 Cup of Blueberries
1/4 Cup of Strawberries
1/4 Cup of Pineapple or Mango (Or really any fruit of your choice)
Directions:
in a blender, blend a 1/4 cup water, protein powder, and Collagen powder together well first.
Then blend in the strawberries – because they are larger and thicker they are harder to blend, so it helps if they are the only thing in the blender.
Next, blend in other other fruits.
Pour and Enjoy!
Superfood Oatmeal –
Ingredients:
1 small sweet potato (Roasted and Mashed)
1/2 cups Gluten Free Rolled Oats
1/2 cup Water or Milk of your choice
1/8 cup Frozen Blueberries
1 Teaspoon Maple Syrup or Honey
1 teaspoon PB2 (or any powdered peanut butter)
Directions:
Bake the sweet potato for 25 minutes at 400F (cut in half horizontally and bake flesh side down) I cook a batch each week to add to various quick meals.
Once the potato is cooked take the skin off and mix into paste. Cook the oatmeal per directions, when half-way done add in sweet potato puree, until cooked fully, mix in frozen blueberries. When warmed through, pour into bowl, stir in cinnamon until well combined , add peanut butter powder, and top with as much honey as your heart desires.
