Enjoy!
Ingredients
500g pumpkin (once peeled and deseeded comes to 400g / 3 cups grated)
1 cup (200g) pitted prunes
1 ½ cup rice flour (can sub for buckwheat flour but it does take a lot of the flavour away)
½ cup shredded coconut
⅓ cup honey
1 ¼ cup olive oil
1 cup pumpkin seeds
½ tsp baking powder
1 tsp bicarb soda
2 tsp cinnamon
3 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
Method:
Preheat oven to 180C and line a large loaf tin (approx 15x22cm) with greaseproof paper. Peel, deseed and grate pumpkin into a large bowl. Chop prunes in half and add to bowl with olive oil, honey, eggs, vanilla. Sift the flour, cinnamon, bicarb soda, baking powder, and salt together, then add shredded coconut. Combine both mixtures and fold in the pumpkin seeds (sparing a small handful) Pour into a loaf tin and sprinkle with extra pumpkin seeds and bake for 1 hour 15 minutes. Allow to cool in tin for 20 minutes, then remove from tin to cool completely on a wire rack. Slice and serve or freeze in pieces for up to 2-3 weeks ready for snacks and treats!
3 days ago by brownpapernutrition Mum sent me home with some chocolate melts she didn’t know what to do with ... I had two options, 1/ eat them straight up, as they delicious 2/ be kind and get my bake on even though temp and humidity feels like 45 deg C today. Option 2 evidently won, the melts didn’t melt and I am not one bit worried about it. I’ve done plenty of melting today for everyone This ALMOND BROWNIE recipe is a quick variation from one I’ve got on the blog and it’s nek level... especially with cheeky chocolate care of the my lil
3 weeks ago by brownpapernutrition INDIAN SPICE SAUSAGE ROLLS WITH RAITA : Most of my sausage roll creations come about from leftover veggies, a handful of herbs and a well fuelled spice rack. I don’t ever recall going out and physically purchasing anything for them and that I think is the best principle when it comes to these things – especially when there’s some cheeky pastry to wrap around it like a present to your tastebuds. Having oats, eggs and sunflower seeds on hand helps here but no doubt you could do with breadcrumbs and whatever other nuts or seeds you might have for some
1 day ago by brownpapernutrition I didn’t want to share too much of our excitement for this little person whilst there is so much devastation in our country, but after speaking to a few friends and being reminded that with all darkness we must also have light to look forward to I thought maybe a bit of bump might be ok to share here too. Can’t wait to meet this tiny human... only about 6 weeks to go. Love. #34weekspregnant @svendsenfitnesshealth
1 week ago by brownpapernutrition Hi friends, please excuse my radio silence as we've launched into 2020 I had a little break from social media to refresh and have honestly just felt a bit speechless with the bush fire devastation in our country so haven't been posting, rather I've quietly plugged away with $ donations to different charities, donated supplies to any of the collections possible and have been supporting those close to us, in particular my family, caught in the fires. My aunty has had to evacuate her home, it's situated right in the middle of the two southern fires, as a family we
3 weeks ago by brownpapernutrition #simplification Lots of New Year resolution chats happening this time of year and before the anxiety of wtf shall I resolve to do and an epic long list appears before you I just wanted to drop this thought which is - it’s ok to resolve to do less. Doing less and simplifying things doesn’t make you any less. In fact, if anything, just doing a few less things but doing those chosen things with INTENTION will mean you are doing more - because of the QUALITY of your attention to it. I scaled back on SO MUCH in 2019 and
