#Recipe - Oat raisin cookies

Oat raisin cookies 

If anyone knows the source of this recipe let me know please. 
I found it on FB, but don't remember where :/

Currently our most favorite snack :-)
Sugar free - but be aware of the sugars in the Bananas and raisins, if you have to watch your sugar Levels!

1 cup oats
2 ripe Bananas
1/3 cup raisins
(I added some Cinnamon and ground Flax seeds to my last batch - delicious!)

Mash together, I use a fork.
Bake in preheated oven at 180C for approx. 15 min

Enjoy! :-)

ca. 64g Haferflocken, 2 reife Bananen, 43g Rosinen (natuerlich kannst Du auf und abrunden)
Hab bei der letzten Runde noch 1 EL Zimt mit reingetan.
Eine Freundin hat's mit Aepfeln gemacht (1 Apfel statt Bananen und das ganze im Mixer gemixt -
mit den Bananen mansch ich's mit der Gabel)
Bei vorgeheiztem Backofen auf 180C ca. 15Min backen
Feddisch :-)

#Handmade - DIY stuff with garlic

The other day I had to make use of a bunch of garlic and came upon a recipe for garlic paste.
You can adjust the amount to your liking, I used about 5 pieces of garlic and had only Cilantro, but it worked.

500g garlic
100g parsley
100g chives
100g sea salt

peel garlic, wash the herbs, let them dry a bit
put all together in mixer, fill in clean jars and keep in a dry, cool, dark place (mine's in the fridge)
But if you have a pantry that fits the above, will work as well.
Paste lasts for approx. a year

(Knoblauchpaste Rezept auf Deutsch)


What I used it for

Garlic butter
Just add the paste to some butter and mix well

From Handmade

For spicing Veggies

For homemade salad dressing

Just use half a tsp of the paste, add about 6 tbsp of water, apple cider vinegar and about 4 tbsp of olive oil,
salt and pepper - adjust to your liking.

A healthy alternative to the ready made bags. Just check the ingredient list of the bags:
Sugar, Flavor enhancer, Lactose, potato starch, palm oil, more cheat flavours, ...

#Handmade - Homemade mustard

My first homemade mustard! HOT!

I only had one kind of seeds available here (very dark ones), my suspicion is that they
were a wee bit old too. Liquid didn't get absorbed all the way and I had trouble
blending them. Sadly, I already discarded the access liquid and had to supplement with some water
and apple cider vinegar to get it ground into a paste.

But I LOVE it and the next batch will go into the works soon :-)

Here's the recipe - easy peasy!

#Recipes - Yeast free bread

Quick, easy and yummy!

Here's the link to the English / Original recipe

I only used 3 Teaspoons of Baking powder
I also used Buttermilk instead of milk powder, butter instead of whatever oil they used
and whole wheat flower.

Tip: To form the dough, grease your hands with olive oil, that will work like a charm.

Brot ohne Hefe

Schnell, einfach und sehr lecker!

3 Tassen Mehl Eurer Wahl - bei mir war's Vollkornmehl (umrechnen muesst ihr das leider selber - zB: Hier)
4 Teeloeffel Backpulver (ich bin einem Tip gefolgt und habe nur 3 genommen)
1.5 Tassen Reismilch (oder egal welche andre Fluessigkeit, Wasser geht auch - ich habe Buttermilch genommen)
1/4 cup of liquid fat (ich habe geschmolzene Butter genommen, es geht jedoch auch jedwedes Oel)

Trockene und fluessige Zutaten getrennt mischen
Mehl langsam zu dem fluessigen geben und kneten
Der Teig muss nicht wie ein Hefeteig ewig geknetet werden - wenn alles Mehrl verarbeitet ist, reicht das. Falls Euch der teig zu mtaschig vorkommt, ein bisschen stehen lassen und Fluessigkeit 'ins Mehl' ziehen lassen.
Blech und Haende mit Olivenoel einschmieren (oder einem andren Fett). Das macht es einfacher, den Teig
in Form zu bringen.
Mit einem X in der Mitte den Teig leicht einritzen (Messer dafuer etwas mit Mehl oder Olivenoel versehen hilft)
40Min bei 400F (ich hab 200C genommen - vielleicht besser mal nachgucken) in den vorgeheizten Ofen.
Zahnstochertest funktioniert hier prima!

Guten Hunger :-)
Das Brot schmeckt natuerlich anders als Hefebrot und ist von der Konsistenz her auch anders.
Also nicht ueberrascht sein - ich fand's jedenfalls lecker :-)

#Recipe - Homemade Hummus

So easy, quick and yummy!

From Handmade

I don't know where I found the original recipe,
but here you go:

1 cup boiled chick peas (I use a can and the water, boil it and dump the whole thing in the Blender)
4 Tablespoons Tahina paste
2 medium green Chilis (the recipe says large, but I'm fine with this heat ;-) )
3 garlic gloves
2-3 Table spoons of Olive oil (I use 3)
1-2 Tablespoons of Lemon juice
throw it all in your Blender
sprinkle salt and pepper over the top, you can always add more later,
but that's usually enough for me
Blend it, taste it and add more of whichever ingredient you think is missing - Enjoy!

#365 - Cherry / Kirsch muffins

My Mom sent me this recipe the other day - they are yummy and so easy! She replaced the cherries from the glass with cherry yoghurt. I might add something fruity next time though. I added some coconut. Recipe in German / Rezept auf Deutsch

#Handmade - Sticky Date cake

Oh, so YUMMY!
Fluffy and sticky!

The icing is not exactly as it should.
Have trouble translating 'thickened cream' into something usable... used normal whipping cream, but it's not 100% as it should.
Next time :)

#Recipe - Cinnamon Rolls

YUMMY!
And easy to make (if you are not so lightheaded like me today), but they were yummy!
I mixed the Vanilla for the icing into the filling. Squeezed the juice of orange into the icing instead of water, milk or cream and skipped the Vanilla part there, didn't want Vanilla rolls ;-)
I also used brown sugar for the filling (I think, you can use honey instead as well)

Recipe / Rezept (auf Englisch, wenn ihr Hilfe braucht, sagt Bescheid :-))
___________

Sehr einfach und lecker!
Ich hab aus Versehen das Vanillepulver fuer die Creme oben drauf in die Fuellung gepackt.
Zum Ausgleich hab ich den Saft einer Orange fuer das Icing benutzt und nicht nochmal Vanille dazugegeben, war SEHR lecker!
Ich habe ausserdem braunen Zucker fuer die Fuellung genommen, Honig geht wohl auch habe ich gelesen.

Just found some great 'How to' Tips (was looking for the option of freezing the rolls, since I made so many - I wanted to make half the recipe, but forgot ;-))

PS: Yes, you can freeze them, any time during the process. Good!
