| The 350 calories cake
This is a cake I made yesterday and tonight, since it tastes so damn good. It is only 350 cal. for the whole cake, and is in fact big enough to fit in a medium cake oven tray. This is a thing that totally satisfies my sweet-tooth cravings with the minimum calories amount plus the main ingredients are veggies and fruit, so it is in fact a very healthy choice in contrast to other sweet-tooth-craving food.
I post the recipe in two different mass systems, ounces and grams.
The 350 calories apple cake
100 gr / 3.5 oz zucchini, finely grated
225 gr / 8 oz apple, finely grated.
That means aprox. 1 large apple that has been peeled
30 gr / 1 oz skimmed milk powder
10 gr / 0.35 oz uncooked cous-cous
17 gr / 0.6 oz maize flour/ corn-meal
3 gr / 0.1 oz melted butter
- Sweetener of choice, quantity depends on the type of sweetener, just put the amount that is the same as 1-2 tsp of sugar.
- little bit of vanilla in any form (with no sugar added of course)
- Tiny amount of salt
- Cinnamon powder, no sugar added.
Just mix everything well together except the cinnamon powder. Use the melted butter to spread in the cake oven tray, so it wont get stuck to the tray. Put the whole thing in the tray, drizzle cinnamon powder on top and bake for about 1 hour in 160° C or 320 Fahrenheit. It isnt very firm as normal cakes, and in fact it is more of a dessert then a cake, so be prepared that it is very soft in the middle, but should be firmer on the outside, and fully baked it should have a dark brown color. I really like eating no-sugar, low-fat vanilla icecream with it, or low-fat sourcream. This cake is a thing that tastes too good to actually be healthy, but it is fact that this is probably the cake with the healthiest ingredients of any dessert (except for plain fruit) I have ever known. This recipe is also certainly easy to adjust to ones liking. Instead of the skimmed milk powder, cous-cous and corn-meal you can use plain flour or other meals. You can also use different fruits. These are fruit options that I think would also taste good.
- Grated pears with a very finely grated lemon or orange peel. I think a 1/8 to 1/4 tsp of the peel would be enough for one cake.
- Grated bananas with cocoa powder.
- Grated pineapple with rum or/and cocoa-nut essence/flavor.
Just use your imagination to make a low-calorie cake with your favorite taste. |
