Low- Fat Vegan Banana Bread

My second banana bread... I thought it's better than the first one.. I adapted this recipe from Veganomicon , but i don't have the molasses and sucanat sugar, so I replace it with Maple and brown sugar. It still turns out good and not too sweet. If you prefer to make it sweeter then maybe you can put more sugar. Give it a try... ^^ 

Low-Fat Banana Bread (Vegan)

Makes one loaf about 12 slices

Ingredients

2 large or 3 small very ripe bananas

1/4 cup applesauce

1/4 cup canola oil

1/3 cup maple syrup

2 tablespoons brown sugar

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 cup white whole wheat flour

3/4 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1/2 teaspoon salt

Preparation

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan.

2. In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas really well. Add the sugar, applesauce, oil, and maple, and 

    whisk briskly to incorporate.

3. Sift in the flour, baking soda, spices, and salt. Use a wooden spoon to mix until the wet and dry 

    ingredients are just combined. If you're using chocolate chips or nuts, fold them in here.

4. Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and bake for 45 to 50 minutes (it took 50 for me). The top should 

    be lightly browned and a knife inserted through the center should come out clean.

5. Remove from the oven and let cool!

6. Slice it and enjoy with tea or coffee (maybe) ^^

Single Serving Vegan Mac and Cheese (You'll love it!)

I adapted this Vegan Mac and Cheese form Chef Chloe lovely recipe. This's my first time and it turns out so good. My sister also like it so much (She asked me to make it again for her, Yey!!). Actually I bought Chloe's Kitchen cooking book and got the recipe from there (Best-Ever Baked Macaroni and Cheese). Have you bought it yet? If you haven't, you probably need to get it now.. hehehe..
Ups, I almost forget to tell you, this is a single-serving size Mac and Cheese.. Hope you like it! =)

Vegan Mac & Cheese

Ingredients
75 gr elbow macaroni
10 gr vegan margarine
7 gr all purpose flour
125 ml soy milk (or your choice of non-dairy milk)
10 gr nutritional yeast
1 tsp tomato paste
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp lemon juice
1 tsp maple syrup

Preparation
1. Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil and cook the macaroni according to package directions.
    Drain and return to pot.
2. In a sauce pan, make a roux or paste by whisking the margarine and flour over medium heat for 3 minutes.
3. Add non-dairy milk, nutritional yeast, tomato paste, salt, and garlic powder to the sauce pan and bring to  
    a boil. Whisking frequently. Reduce heat to low and let simmer until the sauce thickens.
4. Adjust seasoning to taste and stir in lemon juice and agave.
5. Toss the macaroni with the sauce and serve immediately.

* If you prefer to bake your mac and cheese then preheat your oven to 180 degrees celcius before you start making the mac and cheese. Place your mac and cheese into a small baking dish. Next, sprinkle a tbsp of bread crumbs in the top of your Mac and Cheese. Finally put it in the oven for about 30 minutes. And ENJOY!!! ^^

Raw Vegan Brownie

I found that my oven's broken last week. This really made me sad. I couldn't bake any cakes (and also couldn't post any fantastic food on my Instagram, hahaha...) Finally, I decided to made something raw. Then I ended up with this Raw Vegan Brownie. Although this brownie 's raw, they're pretty good. I like it sooooo much... ^^

Below is the recipe.. ^^ enjoyy~ =D

Ingredients

1 cup dates

1 cup walnuts

1/4 cup cocoa powder

a pinch of salt

Preparation

1.     Place walnuts in food processor and blend on high until the nuts are finely ground.

2.     Add the cacao and salt. Pulse to combine.

3.     Add the dates one at a time through the feed tube of the food processor while it is running. What you should end up with is a mix that appears rather like cake crumbs, but that when pressed, will easily stick together.

4.     Press into a lined cake pan or mold. Place in freezer or fridge until ready ro serve.

ENJOYYYY~~~~~ ^^
