Gluten Free Goodies

Yesterday we visited Wolfi's "auntie" Usch and because I don't like to visit people without bringing something with me, it meant that last Sunday was a heavy baking day!

I love chocolate and coconut (which many of you might know by now), so this is what I came up with... Hope you enjoy as much as we did! :D

Chocolate Cake (some kind of modification of this recipe)
makes 1 big cake

• 2 dl gluten free flour mix (mine contained rice, corn, millet, guar gum and xanthan)
• 2 dl rolled oats
• 2 dl cacao powder
• 4 dl coconut sugar
• 1 tbsp No Egg powder (this might not be needed, but I have it still, so I use it till the end :))
• 2 tsp baking powder (contains baking soda)
• 4 dl coconut milk
• 1 dl melted coconut oil
• 1 tbsp vanilla extract

Mix all the dry ingredients together and add in the wet. Stir quickly together and pour the dough into an oiled cake form. Bake in 175C degree oven for about an hour (depends how deep dish you have). Let cool down properly before taking out of the form or cutting into peaces. The texture of the cake is a bit like mudcake or brownie, so you can also bake it in a brownie form. Serve for example with coconut cream sweetened with maple syrup and flavored with vanilla, perfect combination!


Hazelnut Raisin Cookies
makes about 18 cookies

Totally addictive cookies! These vanished almost instantly :D

• 5 dl oat flours
• 3 dl raisins
• 2.5 dl chopped hazelnuts
• 1.5 dl coconut sugar
• 1 dl rolled oats
• 1 tbsp No Egg powder (might not be needed)
• 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
• 2 tsp baking powder (contains baking soda)
• 1.5 dl coconut milk
• 1 dl maple syrup
• 0.5 dl coconut oil

Mix all the dry ingredients together and add in the wet. Stir quickly together and let set in fridge for about 30 minutes. Scoop big spoonfuls on to a baking sheet and bake in 200C degree oven for about 10 minutes. Let cool down before moving away from the sheet. Tip: enjoy with cold soy-rice milk, delicious! :P

The ingredients I used. Just raisins, hazelnuts and maple syrup missing from the picture.
