Blueberry pancakes �
3 egg whites beaten till frothy
add 1/8 cups yogurt
combine and add scant 1/4 cup of whole wheat or other flour + dash of nutmeg + 1/2 tsp baking powder
Add 2 Tbsps of Olive Oil
add 1/2 banana peeled and diced
add 1/2 cup frozen or fresh blueberries
dash salt if desired
Combine all above with whip or mixer - batter should be thick as cake batter. If not add little more flour
Cook in electric fry pan 300 degrees F with a coating of canola oil for 5-7 minutes per side or less for thinner pancakes. Rule of thumb when all the bubbles burst, it is time to flip and cook on the 2nd side. If using stovetop, cook low to medium heat so do not burn pancakes
Bon appetit! Enjoy!

I don't like to cook but I have a simple and quick breakfast add on:
Cinnamon toast{ spread butter to your liking, sprinkle a dash of cinnamon and a teaspoon of sugar or as I use a sweetener toaster oven until golden brown. Add a cup of coffee or your favorite drink and that's it.
Carob Banana Bread or Cake
I think this is mostly gluten free but not sure about bananas so maybe other fruits like dates might work (pitted)
Here is a list of supposedly gluten free foods https://www.celiac.com/articles.html/safe-gluten-free-food-list-unsafe-foods-amp-ingredients/safe-gluten-free-food-list-safe-ingredients-r181/
Preheat oven to 325 or 350
1/2 cup carob powder - 1 3/4 cups garbanzo bean flour or other non gluten flour (if you tolerate wheat you may use wheat or whole wheat flour)- 2 tsp baking powder - 1/2 tsp baking soda if tolerate the sodium combine all those in a bowl
Beat 2 eggs with mixer then add 1 cup mashed banana, cup milk or water. (Can use 3 egg whites if you prefer less fat.)
⅓ cup olive oil or oil of your choice, can use less but cake will be drier, 2 teaspoons vanilla extract, blend until creamy.
Slowly combine mixed dry ingredients with eggs and banana creamy mixture
At end you can add cups of cashews or any nuts or carob chips for a very caroby experience. Or for smoother texture add 1/4 to 1/3 cup almond butter instead of cashews. You can reduce olive oil if you like.
Oil pan, I like 9X13 because gives thinner like brownies. Use whatever size you have. Bake 30 minutes then test if done. If cooking thin layer takes less. Thicker could be 15-30 minutes longer. Insert fork in center when comes out dry then it is done.
I can never let it cool before I try a piece.

My favorite.
sugar free ice cream Carob or other
I think this is mostly gluten free but not sure about bananas so maybe other fruits like dates might work (pitted)
Here is a list of supposedly gluten free foods �https://www.celiac.com/articles.html/safe-gluten-free-food-list-unsafe-foods-amp-ingredients/safe-gluten-free-food-list-safe-ingredients-r181/
Here is my winging it recipe for ice milk with bananas and carob powder. about 4 cups in a liter. There are no strict measurements. Alter to your taste.
2 cups of milk (whatever fat level you drink) put in ice cube trays so only filled halfway then freeze them.
1/2 cup of liquid milk held aside
2/3 to 1 cup of frozen, skin removed, bananas
1/8 to a 1/4 cup of smooth almond butter according to how much fat you want. I use skim milk so I go with a 1/4 cup �
1/4 cup of carob powder
1 tsp vanilla extract
STEPS
1) Food processor the ice milk cubes until frosty snow
and empty into bowl �
2) Food processor frozen banana breaking them into smaller pieces to make it easier to puree them.
3) Add almond butter, vanilla, and 1/2 cup milk to pureed frozen banana and puree all ingredients till smooth.
4) Add carob powder to puree in food processor.
5) Cover carob powder with frosty snow that is in separate bowl and blend in food processor until all ingredients mixed. �
6) Taste and adjust anything by adding if needed (sweetener for instance)
7) Serve immediately and put uneaten portion into the freezer is some kind of container. I just thought it might be okay to use the ice cube trays and then you take out as many cubes as you want after they are frozen and let sit out till soft or for impatient eaters, defrost in microwave for 20-30 seconds. If you put in a large container you may have to microwave for a minute or two to cut into pie shaped slices or scoop out. Break apart pieces uneaten and refreeze.
Let me know how this sounds.

@Lauren63 wow lauren this sounds like a rich treat. Thanks for sharing
@Lauren63
Lauren that sounds heavenly for a special day! Can I exchange the chicken soup with vegetable broth as I am vegetarian or does it change the taste of the dish completely?
@amiablePeace77 I would say it would be better to use a cream soup. Say cream of mushroom. Would that work? If not try it, Theres no calories! 🤓
@Lauren63
that's a good idea Lauren, I'll give it a shot, love mushrooms anyway

Sweet Potatoe Pudding
2 big sweet potatoes, peeled and cut in cubes, 1 big onion cut in cubes, 1/4 tsp salt, 1 Tbsp margarine, 1 Tbsp browning, 1 Tbsp (or more or less ) hot pepper sauce (not a must though), 1/4 tsp cloves, 1 Tbsp mixed italian herbs
put all in a blender and blend very fine
transfer into bowl which can take heat and put it into a bigger pot (it has to stand on a steaming rack or just metal cookie moulds, it works if you do not have steamer), pot needs to be closed
steam for about 1 hour, it should have the consistency of a paste.
serve with cucumber slices and onions marinaded in lemon or lime juice with hot pepper sauce
ENJOY
@amiablePeace77
Yumm. I would like to try. Your cooking is so nice.
@soulsings
Those pancakes are heavenly! Never thought they turn out so fluffy particularly since I used whole wheat and chick pea flour. Thanks for this great recipie!
@amiablePeace77 yes the eggs really make it fluffy and light. I beat the egg whites with a whip and that helps and combine all ingredients with a hand whip .
@soulsings
I forgot to beat the egg white but still they turned out awesome. Thanks for mentioning it so that I can do it next time. It's a great way for me to get tasty protein
,@amiablePeace77 looks like success 👍😊!

@amiablePeace77 I'm going to try making this. It looks so good.
@Goldcherry2113
I find it's really yummy, let me know how you liked it
Emergency bread
1lb self-raising flour (4 cups cake flour)
1 teaspoon salt
2 oz margarine (1/4 cup)
1/2 pint milk (-ish)
Method
Mix flour & salt, rub in margarine
Add the milk & mix to a soft dough (add a little extra milk if mixture seems dry & won't bind)
Shape lightly & place into a 1lb loaf tin & cover with tin foil (or place another 1lb loaf tin on top & clip the two together using bulldog clips)
Bake in the middle of a moderate oven 180C or 325F, gas mark 3, for about an hour
Hopefully, you'll end up with a tasty, soft, cake-like bread and not a house-brick
@cal1860 thanks for that recipe.
If you do not have margarine you can substitute andy kind of vegetable oil.
@cal1860
Cal, thank you so much for sharing this recipie, will try. Could this work with different kind of flours too like mixing whole wheat and chickpea for example?
