1918. Date Molasses Chickpea Oat Cookies


My sister bought a small packet of delicious but overpriced cookies, which had the list of ingredients clearly printed on the packet. This led me to trying my hand at replicating it, using experience as educated guesses as to the measurements and method.

I make my own yogurt weekly using two litres of milk. I then strain it to get 1 kilogram of greek yogurt, and about a litre of whey. To make this blueberry chia yogurt pudding, I thin it out a bit using the whey.

This is the first time I use buckwheat. Although coming from wheat, it has many health benefits that I preferred making an oat-less granola just to let it shine.

1811. Cottage Cheese Chocolate Pudding


Cottage cheese is back, and the make over is real. Specifically, blending the cheese completely transforms it. Exploiting its naturally bland nature, it can swing sweet or savory.

1674. Bee Pollen Granola


Bee pollen has a wide range of amazing health benefits. Downside is that it may taste a bit like what I imaging chalk to taste like, so eating it by the spoonful is ruled out.

Caution: bee pollen loses much of its nutritional value upon heating, so add it to the granola once out of the oven to minimize this loss.
