* orange, carrot cakes *

 
























 Good morning! 

We are on our second snow day in South Carolina, and I finally had time to make some 
delicious snacks again. 

My mom made these in Hungary, sent me the recipe and the next day my sister and I 
both made it :) 
It has no flour, no refined sugar in it, but the carrots and the fresh orange juice 
make it perfectly sweet for a little afternoon snack. 



























* Orange, carrot cakes * 

* 10 dkg coconut oil 

* 2 eggs

* 2 yolks

* 20 dkg almond meal 

* the zest of one orange 

* the juice of half of an orange 

* 1 medium carrot ( grated ) 

* 5 tsp maple syrup 


1. Melt you coconut oil and mix it with the eggs and the yolk, 

preheat you oven to 350 degrees ( 180 Celsius ) 

2. Add the rest of the ingredients to the coconut oil mixture. 

3. Grease your baking sheet ( i used my smallest, square one ) with some coconut oil 
and pour your cake mixture in it. 

4. Bake it for 35 minutes. 

Enjoy! 




























Have a wonderful week!

* energy bites *




























Good morning Friends! 

I've been sick for over 4 days... Thank goodness we had a 4 day weekend  
(so I could relax all day ) and for my ginger+lemon+honey tea . 

I feel so much better now and I was so excited to hare this amazing recipe with you! 
Yaaaayyy for healthy snacks! 



























* energy bites *



* 2 cups almond meal

* 2 cups dried dates 

* 2 bananas 

* 1/2 cup ground flex seed

* 3 tbsp chia seeds 

Place your dates in your food processor for a few minutes( I had to do it twice :) )
then gradually add all the other ingredients.

After a few minutes the mixture will be smooth and sticky, so you can start 
rolling your balls. 

I used a tablespoon to scoop up a batch of dough, then roll them into little balls 
with your hands.

You can roll them in some chia seeds, coconut flakes or whatever you'd prefer :).

Place them in the freezer for 2 hours to set, then keep them in the fridge. 

This recipe makes about 30 balls.




























Have a wonderful week! Don't forget to enjoy the little things! 


Be yourself, be happy, be creative,
