Just in time for the Hobbit’s release!

Elven Lembas Bread 

  • ¼ cup sour cream 
  • ¼ cup fresh lemon juice 
  • ½ cup honey (mallorn tree preferably) 
  • 2 cups flour (i used whole wheat for healthier version) 
  • zest of 2 lemons 
  • 1 tsp baking powder 
  • 110 g cold butter 
  1. Whisk flour, zest and baking powder.
  2. Add diced butter and mix quickly until it becomes crumbly.
  3. Mix cream, juice and honey (it doesn’t have to be runny).
  4. Add wet ingredients and mix with hand until it forms a ball – do not overwork (use more flour if needed, it should feel a bit less thick than shortbread).
  5. Refrigerate for at least an hour.
  6. Roll out 1 cm thick and cut square pieces – i made 12 7x7 cm cookies.
  7. Bake 15-17 min in 200C until edges are golden brown.
  8. Wrap with mallorn leaves and save for your travel.

For any of my Hobbit fan followers. Hopefully you have/had a great time seeing the movie, and this will be something you’ll like to try! ^^

I’d always heard rumors of people making their own almond milk but I assumed it was a super difficult process. I was pleasantly surprised when I finally built up the courage to make it. It’s really easy, and oddly fun.

To make Raw Almond Milk:

What you’ll need:

1 cup raw almonds

2-3 cups of water

vanilla extract (optional)

blender

cheesecloth/muslin/pantyhose 

What you’ll need to do:

Combine almonds and water. Let sit overnight. Blend together and pour into a jar lined with cheesecloth/muslin/pantyhose. Let this separate the milk from the leftover almond chunks. Make sure to give the cloth a good squeeze when you’re done to get as much out as you can. Refrigerate and enjoy!

Fab Fit Friday: Healthy Blueberry Pie With Banana Graham Cracker Crust

undressedskeleton:

Thanksgiving is in less than one week. This is the time of year we: throw on our lose pants, flowing tops and dark colors to hide our holiday splurges. You don’t have to ditch the skinny jeans in order to indulge this Thanksgiving. Make smarter choices. Offer more: vegetable dishes, whole grains, and lean protein. Try to eliminate extra: butter, oils and sugar. Making your dishes healthier can take away the guilt of going back for seconds. It’s Thanksgiving, if you don’t go back for seconds, you are not human. Here is my pie recipe, that will not put you in a sugar-induced coma. 

Pie Crust Ingredients:

  • 12 Low Fat Honey Whole Grain Graham Crackers
  • 1 Tbsp Honey
  • 2 Medium Bananas
Preparation:
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Break graham crackers into little pieces. Add to electric mixer.
  3. Mash bananas with a fork. Add bananas and honey to electric mixer, with graham crackers.
  4. Mix on low speed for 3 minutes
  5. Slowly, increase speed until ingredients form a dough texture.
  6. Use 3/4 of the dough for the bottom of the pie. Save the rest for edges. 
  7. Spray pie pan with cooking spray.
  8. Add dough to the center of the pan. Start at the center and spread the dough out with fingertips. 
  9. After bottom layer of dough is spread out evenly, add the leftover dough to the edges. 

Now, this is the easy part. I found a can of no sugar added blueberry pie filling.

-I added two cups of the filling to the pie crust. The can is much cheaper and easier to use. 

-Bake pie for 20-25 minutes, or until pie crust is lightly brown.
