Orange Almond flour cake with Titan whey cream cheese frosting



Hello ladies,

Hope everyone is well?  I went on a big baking spree over the weekend.  One recipe that stood out to me was this almond flour cake.  It was superb.  I ate the last piece today and it was still amazing so I can say it lasted 5-6 days in the fridge.  Great for 'make-ahead' snacks.  This delicious cake is also refined sugar free and gluten free.

Ingredients:
4 large eggs
150g honey
1 tablespoon vanilla essence
150g almond flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder

I wanted to give this cake a zesty orange flavor, so I added the juice of 1/4 of an orange and about 1-2 teaspoons grated orange rind.

Mix everything together very well and bake for 45 minutes ( or if toothpick comes out clean) in 200 degrees oven.

Optional frosting:
60g Titan whey in vanilla
160g medium fat cream cheese plain
1 teaspoon orange rind
2 teaspoons fresh orange juice
Mix very well and top once your cake has cooled off.

Makes 8 servings.  This will become a regular thing in my house from now on!  :)

Bon ap!

3 snack tips for busy people!


 Hello friends,

I want to share this quick 3 super easy snack tips with you.  If you are mostly  on the run, like me, you will find it convenient.

Look for JOYA in Woolworths stores.  I don't think you will be able to find them much longer.  Don't miss out on these sweet, crunchy apples!

1.  JOYA and peanut butter


No recipe needed here.  Too quick and easy!


Just control yourself on the nut butter, although healthy, they pack a few calories! Try to limit to 1 teaspoon


2.  JOYA compot


Peel and cut your apples.  Cover with water in a pot.  Bring to boil and turn down heat.  Let it simmer for 30-40 minutes.


You can add it to your yogurt in place of the whole fruit, or just enjoy with a few chopped nuts.



3.  Shake and JOYA


Have a delicious, crunchy JOYA with cinnamon as a side to your Titan whey!
