Organic Breakfast Juice

May 10, 2015 by Jamie Leave a Comment

I’ve decided to make myself some organic breakfast juice so that I can get some extra nutrients while my body recovers from the last stint in hospital. I grabbed a bunch of different organic fruits and vegetables from my local markets for the ingredients and it tastes great! This is super easy to make and only takes about 35 minutes.

Makes roughly 2 liters

Ingredients

  • 2 bunches of kale stalks (makes 200ml)
  • 1 medium beetroot (makes 100ml)
  • 5 carrots (makes 275ml)
  • 5 celery stalks (makes 325ml)
  • 1 medium bunch broccoli (makes 100ml)
  • 1 large orange (makes 250ml)
  • 3 small apples (makes 275ml)
  • 1/2 large pineapple (makes 600ml)

Instructions

  1. I juiced the different fruit and vegetables in the listed order and joined them in a single jug to mix. My juicer doesn’t fit much in it which is why I did everything in stages.
  2. Refrigerate and drink as you want.

Banana and Chia Seed Cake

May 5, 2015 by Jamie Leave a Comment

2015-05-04 17.12.49I have wanted to try out a gluten free alternative to one of my favourite cakes (banana cake) and finally got the chance to do it. I had too many banana’s in my freezer and a surprising amount of coconut flour. So I thought I would put something together and see how it turned out.

Serves 12 possibly more.

Ingredients

  • 500 grams of bananas (usually 4)
  • 6 free range eggs
  • 40g of sultanas
  • 20g of slivered almonds
  • 3 teaspoons vanilla extract or 1 vanilla bean pod
  • 60 ml coconut oil
  • half teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 teaspoons gluten free baking powder
  • 70 g coconut flour
  • 20 g chia seed

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 150 degrees celsius
  2. Combine the bananas, eggs, vanilla extract, coconut oil, cinnamon and baking powder in a food processor and blend to combine, or combine in a large bowl.
  3. Add the sultanas and almonds to the mixture.
  4. Stir in the coconut flour and chia seeds and let it sit for 10 minutes. The batter should thicken by the end.
  5. Oil a bread pan ready for the batter use baking paper if you have it.
  6. Add the batter to the pan.
  7. Cook in the oven for 60 minutes, check at 50 minutes with a skewer at the centre (it should come out dry).

Notes: If you want it to be a little sweeter you can add maple syrup, honey or stevia to sweeten. 

Once the cake has cooked, remove from pan leave on a drying rack to cool. You can serve as is or with ricotta, ice cream or other delicious toppings.
