Happy 19th Birthday to my beautiful amazing Klara🎂 My smart, ambitious, strong, kind and sweet daughter. I love you so much, and I am so proud of you, for the amazing person you are, and for all that you have accomplished so far♥️ I made this cake a few days ago for the first time and she loved it so much that I decided that it should be her birthday cake🎂
It is basically chocolate on chocolate: super soft and moist chocolate sponge with lots of melted chocolate chunks🍫 So I guess, what’s not to like😁?!
Brownie Chocolate Chunk Cake
Dry ingredients
1/2 cup rice flour
1/2 cup spelt flour
2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp unrefined salt
1 tbsp chia seeds
4 tbsp unsweetened cocoa
Wet ingredients:
1/2 cup almond milk + 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
1/3 cup melted coconut oil
1/3 cup maple or agave syrup
2 tbsp flax seeds ground and mixed with 6 tbsp water
1 large apple - grated

100grams dark chocolate cut in pieces

Method:
Prepare the flax egg - grind the flax and mix with water.
Mix milk and apple cider vinegar.
Peel and grate the apple.
Place all dry ingredients in the bowl. Mix oil and syrup separately. Then add milk wit cider and flax egg, mix together.
Add wert to dry ingredients, fold it carefully till batter forms. Add grated apple and half the chocolate pieces.
Pour into cake pan. I used 18cm round cake pan, and baked it on 175C for 25 minutes. Check with toothpick if it’s done.
Hope you guys love this one, cause we adored it😍
.
Danas moja Klara navršava 19 godina. Moja pametna, jaka, ambiciozna, pažljiva, mila i prekrasna kćer. Moja brucošica, moja velika sreća i ponos♥️ Sretan rodjendan mila🎂
(nemam inače običaj “sramotiti” svoje dijete na društvenim mrežama, al valjda je jednom godišnje ok😁)
Neki dan sam napravila ovaj kolač prvi put i kako se Klari jako svidio, odlučila sam da mora biti njena rodjendanska torta.
Zapravo se radi o jako sočnom čokoladnom biskvitu s puno nasjeckane čokolade. Recept je dva posta unatrag. Koristite taj recept i količine, a danas sam ga pekla u kalupu za tortu od 18 cm, 25 minuta na parnom modu u @electroluxhrvatska pećnici. Više o parnim pećnicama i zašto su super pročitajte na linku u storiju.

Chocolate Chunk Chocolate Loaf Cake🍫
English below⬇️
Super čokoladni kolač s komadićima čokolade i @adezhrv bademovim mlijekom, jaaako sočan (unutra je skrivena i naribana jabuka😉), mekan, čokoladan a jednostavan za napraviti. Ja bih rekla, može i klincima za doručak😃 (naravno i vama)
Evo recept pa probajte:
Čokoladni kolač
Mokri sastojci:
1/2 šalice #adezhr bademovog mlijeka
1 žličica jabučnog octa
1/3 do 1/2 šalice agavinog sirupa
1/3 šalice rastopljenog kokosovog ulja
2 žlice lana + 6 žlica vode
Naribana jabuka

Suhi sastojci:
1/2 šalice rižinog brašna
1/2 šalice pirovog brašna
2 žličice soda bikarbone
4 žlice kakaa
1/4 žličice soli
1 žlica chia sjemenki

100g crne čokolade - nasjeckajte je na kockice oštrim nožem

Metoda:
Stavite jabučni ocat u @adezhrv bademovo mlijeko i promiješajte. Pustite da odstoji dok pripremite ostale suhe i mokre sastojke.
Sameljite lan u mlincu za kavu ili u sjeckalici (naglašavam da treba biti što finije samljeven) i pomiješajte u zdjelici s dvostruko više vode. Vidjet ćete kako lan dobiva konzistenciju razmućenog jajeta. I napomena: nemojte kupovati samljeveni lan. Lan sadrži puno omega 3 masnih kiselina koje vrlo lako oksidiraju. Drugim riječima, takav lan će brzo izgubiti nutritivne vrijednosti i užegnuti.
Pomiješajte ulje sa sirupom.
Umiješajte lan i smjesu ulja i sirupa u suhe sastojke. Lagano promiješajte, dodajte mlijeko malo po malo i ponovno promiješajte. Nemojte prežustro miješati da biskvit ne bi bio žilav.
Kad je smjesa uglavnom jednolična, umiješajte naribanu jabuku i pola nasjeckane crne čokolade.
Dobivena smjesa treba biti prilično gusta, ali da se ipak može preliti u kalup uz pomoć špatule. Slobodno isprobajte sirovu smjesu kako biste provjerili je li dovoljno slatka i ukusna.
Stavite u kalup za kruh obložen masnim papirom (ili u manji kalup drugog oblika), obilato pospite komadićima čokolade. Pecite u pećnici zagrijanoj na 175stupnjeva, 20-25min. ✖️
How does double chocolate sound to you? Yep, meaning chocolate sponge plus chocolate chunks. Now I got your attention😁
Stay tuned for the recipe (or translate from Croatian😁🙈😘)

Recept je na blogu i jedan je od mojih najpopularnijih recepata. Link je u opisu profila pa povirite. I na hrvatskom. Ja ga uvijek pečem na #plussteam modu u svojoj @electroluxhrvatska pećnici jer bude još sočniji i bolje se digne.

1 cup raw cashews (soaked for at least 3 hours)
2/3 cup water (up to 1 cup if you need more to blend it)

Dupla čokoladna torta, s čoko biskvitom i kremom. Moja ekipa kaže, prava čokoladna torta! Nikad ne bi pogodili da ima “čudnih, zdravih” sastojaka😂 A i jednostavna je i za napraviti, svakako jednostavnija od klasičnih torti.
Biskvit je divno mekan i sočan a krema jaaaako kremasta i intenzivno čokoladna.
Da bi biskvit bio još sočniji i da se fino digne, pečem ga na parnom ili #plussteam modu u mojoj @electroluxhrvatska pećnici. Parne pečnice su vam odlične za razne oblike spravljanja hrane, od pečenja, sous vide, parenja do čak i prženja. Da, i ja sam se tome začudila, ali zbilja dobijete hrskavu koricu kao da je prženo. Stavit ću link u story za parne pećnice ako vas zanima pa pogledajte, a link na recept za ovu tortu je u opisu profila. Ako imate pitanja, kao i uvijek, pišite #electrolux #makelifedelicious #electroluxhrvatska #steamoven #parnapecnica

Rice Flour Chia Waffles🥞 Would you like some? I love how crunchy they are when just slightly cooled and then when completely cooled become softer. I’m “give me them hot” kind of person😁 I don’t care if I burn my tongue😂 as long as I get reaaaally crunchy stuff to eat. I even love all the burnt parts. Do you do that too? And what are your fav additions to waffles? I love them with date syrup and berries. My hubs, he’s a strawberry jam kind of person.
Here’s a quick recipe for waffles:
Rice Flour Chia Waffles
1 cup rice flour
1 cup spelt flour
2 tbsp chia seeds
1/2 tsp salt
3 tsp baking powder
Cinnamon, vanilla
2 tbsp melted coconut oil
3 tbsp maple syrup
1 cup almond milk
2/3 cup water

Mix all ingredients together folding gently. Leave at least an hour to thicken. Use 2-3 tbsp of batter for each waffle.
Cook them for about 5 minutes.
Wishing you a great start to a new week guys.
Love, Maja

Evo jedni fini hrskavi wafli. Da, ja sam definitivno “waffle person”. Za palačinke se ekšli treba pomučiti i stajati kod špareta, a ovi se gotovo sami peku. Nema špricanja, dima pa sve do lijepljenja i raspadanja🙈 Zato probajte😉 Ja ima toster od Tefala koji ima i ploče za waffle tako da nije da trebate neki specijalni uredjaj. Smjesa može biti dva dana u hladnjaku bez problema. Imam par raznih recepata za wafle. Mom dragom su najdraži pirovi (recept je 27 posta niz moj feed), a meni moji blender waffles (na blogu) i ovi rižini. Recept je skoro isti kao za pirove, samo 1 šalice pirovog zamijenite rižinim brašnom i povećajte količinu praška za pecivo za 1 žličicu. Meni je ova varijanta draža jer rižino brašno daje hrskavost, a ja to obožavam😍 Ono, može i zagoreno samo da je hrskavo i nema veze što je vruće i što ću spržiti jezik, samo da je hrskavoooo😂🙈 Javite koji su vam se svidjeli😃
Puse, Maja

Kolač od jagoda i vanilije😍 Danas sam na placu našla vjerovatno zadnje jagode u ovoj sezoni😭 Al zato ću napraviti ovu ljepoticu. Zamislite divno mekani i sočni biskvit i divnu bogatu kremu od vanilije♥️ Jesam vas uvjerila da probate? Kolač je bez pšenice, napravljen s heljdinim i zobenim brašnom, maslinovim uljem i još puno finih i zdravih sastojaka.
Biskvite uvijek pečem na parnom modu #plussteam u svojoj @electroluxhrvatska pećnici jer tako se biskviti bolje dignu, a ostanu divno sočni i meki iznutra. A ako pečete kruh, osim što se super digne, dobije još finiju hrskavu koricu. Cijeli recept za ovaj kolač nadjite u blogu (link je u opisu profila) - na hrvatskom. Ako nemate jagode, slobodno stavite borovnice, ili čak maline. Javite kako vam se svidio😉

Pomegranates are here! So happy the season had started and we’ve been having them for days now🙈 Aaand here’s how I love it most, with chia pudding of course😁
Do you like pomegranate? And did you know that it is so rich in nutrients that is considered a super food that has:
• amazing anti inflammatory properties,
• that it may help reduce insulin resistance
• is very rich in vitamin C - one of best natural sources
• is very rich in anti oxidants - helps reduce cellular damage
• can lower high blood pressure
• there are several more benefits but I was surprised to learn it was considered a symbol of fertility in many olden cultures. Research has shown that can help better production of testosterone for men and help balance sex hormones for women😉
I say, let’s go back to that chia pudding...
I’ve written the basic chia pudding recipe tons of times before, but let’s do it anyway:
Basic Chia Pudding Recipe for 2
1 cup plant milk
4-6 tbsp chia seeds
2 cups plant yoghurt
2 cups fruits of choice
Sweetener / maple syrup, coconut sugar, agave syrup - optional
Method: place seeds in a jar, add milk and mix. Keep mixing until the seeds start to release the gel and the pudding starts to thicken. This is important, if you don’t stir it long enough, you’ll end up with lumps. Let it sit at least half hour, preferably longer or overnight. When ready mix in yoghurt, add fruits and a splash of sweetener of choice. You can keep mixture of milk and seeds up to 3 days in the fridge.

Prije par dana sam kupila prvi šipak ove godine🎉 Jako ih volim, a ova kombinacija sa chia pudingom mi je jako mljac! Jedan od razloga zašto toliko volim šipak je što me podsjeća na djetinjstvo. Jedino ga ne volim čistiti, al zato je mužek tu♥️😁
Jeste li znali da je šipak izuzetno bogat nutrientima: antioxidantima koji sprečavaju upale i oštećenje stanica radi izloženosti stresu, da može smanjiti povišeni krvni tlak i rezinstentnost prema inzulinu, a danas sam otkrila i da pomaže izlučivanje testosterona kod muškaraca i balansiranje ženskih spolnih hormona😉. Jeste li i vi ljubitelji šipka? Ili ćete sad možda postati?

Do you make your own nut butters? Or you think that’s too complicated? Well, I thought so too, but once I learned a few tricks I make them all the time! Guys, it is so easy (and for me rewarding for I love having everything homemade). And it is one (or two ingredient recipe! Not kidding😉!
All you need is nuts and pinch of salt, but there are a few tips to how to make it a super quick and easy process, and answers to some frequent questions like: do I need a super powerful blender, how long the butter lasts, is it cheaper then store bought? I will tell you a super important tip here: always roast the nuts and start blending while still slightly warm. This way your blending process will last a few minutes, literally. As opposed to it with cold nuts which can make up to half hour blending process🙈. Check out my blog post with step by step recipe. Link in my bio. .
.
Radite li sami maslace od orašastih plodova: bademov maslac, lješnjakov, od indijskih? Ili mislite da je to prezahtjevan proces. I ja sam jednom tako mislila, dok nisam naučila par trikova i sad ih izblendam za par minuta. Istovremeno znam što je unutra (oraščići i sol - doslovno, samo to), a višestruko je jeftiniji od kupovnog. Link na blog post u kojem dajem odgovor na najčešća pitanja poput: koliko treba vremena za napraviti, koliko može trajati i kako ga čuvati, može li se napraviti mlijeko od maslaca. Pročitajte i javite ako se odvažite probati😃 Link je u opisu profila😉 .
