Almond rawtella

When I was tasting Prague with my friends, I tried sweet spread called "Datela". It was delicious and that's why I wanted to do it by myself. I did. And how it happend? I just wrote down ingredients which could be suitable, then I used my intuition for how much this and how much that and the result is .................. (try it and then fill the gap)!

Mango raspberry chia pudding

When my mother told me about chia seeds for the first time I didn't pay attention at all. Two years later chia seeds have become well-known all over the world. They call it superfood and it has lot of proven benefits for our healthy (you can read it more here). Normally, chia seeds has no taste and to make a pudding from them I found as the easiest way how to eat them. Chia pudding is a great breakfast because mostly it has already been prepared with no work during the night. And the best part? You can do it thousand different ways according your taste or pantry supplies.

Pistachio Matcha Rawcake

When you are lactose and egg intolerant and you want to eat gluten-free, it is not easy to find a recipe for a suitable dessert. I'm glad there is a raw food and its recipes! I'm a big fan of pistachios and matcha too, so I went crazy when I saw this recipe on the websites :) It was so easy for me, because I usually have every needed ingredient in my fridge or pantry (I guess you don't but every ingredient written here is healthy and good for you so don't hesitate to buy them). As usually, I transform original recipe into my own recipe - I used more accurate units and ingredients I had at home in that moment. The result was more than tasty, it was delicious! Even my oldschool grandma with her boyfriend liked it very much! It is a proof you have to make an effort to get the special ingredients and make this cheesecake too :)

Chocolate chilli cheesacake

First thing when I arrived (I really don´t want to mention the duration of my exhausting and dreadful journey...grrr!) to Birmingham, my sister, she told me: "We need to bake something, my housemate is going to celebrate his birthday on Saturday!". So the plan for the rainy Friday morning was settled. Only question was, what should we bake? My sister bought a few packages of fresh full fat cheese, so we decided to bake a cheesecake, chocolate chilli cheesecake (my idea), because everyone who had ever tasted it, felt in love with it! When you are not a big fan of spicy things, just add little bit less chilli than we used. 

First time I did chocolate chilli cheesecake couple years ago I followed recipe on the blog Chez Lucie, but its final form is changed and created by me. So if you want to pleased someone who loves spicy things, this cheesecake is perfect for it!

Sweet millet dumplings with strawberries

When I decided to remove almost all gluten from my meals I was looking for a classic flour replacement. In our organic store I found surprisingly a lot of gluten-free flours, for example millet, buckwheat, chick pea and amaranth. For this recipe I chose millet one, because millet is well known in our family for years. The real advantage of millet flour and hazelnuts is, that if you do these dumplings in advance or if you have leftovers, they won't get as hard as usual wheat dumplings. The other thing I hate about preparing wheat dumplings - dough is sooo sticky. Gluten-free, sticky-free :) And of course, hazelnuts make them much more tastier and unusual!

Coconut and raspberry cheesecake

Finally!
One of my favourites! Coconut cheesecake (read čískejk). This coconut and raspberry dessert with hint of lemon taste is kind of my sudden creation. Here it is kind of summer, well I'm in England so summer more feels like spring, and lots of fresh strawberries and raspberries are on rack in my favourite fruit shop.

Daring Bakers Challenge - Charlotte Royale

Well, first question you are gonna probably ask is "what is the daring bakers challenge?"

Just to explain shortly. Daring bakers is website where people share different recipes from all around the world. Every month there is a challenge hosted by one of us. The challenge has to be completed within a month period and after  that we share our results. It is a amazing way how to try new recipes and discover tweaks and tricks for baking.

This month the challenge was hosted by Rebecca from BakeNQuilt.com. Our job was to make either Charlotte Royale or Russe.

I chose Charlotte Royale because it looked bit more interesting and challenging than Charlotte Russe. The Charlotte Royale is mostly made in a round bowl lined with slices of Swiss roll cake for a spiral effect.

                       

I know it might seems like a bit tricky kind of dessert to make but it is much easier than it looks. Let's get started!

Glutenfree banana pancakes

Today, I want to introduce my favorite breakfast far away for last months - it is really easy and tasty so don't hesitate to try it!

               

You can find banana pancakes recipes everywhere on internet, but I want to share my own improved one. The trick is that you add protein powder into the batter and your pancakes will be more compact and you can turn them easily to other side without tearing. And the protein powder adds them flavour so you won't be bored from always the same banana taste - my favorite is chocolate with peanut butter (yes, I am deeply in love with peanut butter - you can buy it here). So let's start!

Cocoa avocado pudding

                 

Cocoa avocado pudding was one of the most surprising dessert I have ever made. Have you ever imagined or heard before, that you can prepare pudding from avocado? With the nearly same texture like real chocolate pudding has? No? But it is possible and the result is awesome!
