‘Words are like ingredients; it only takes a few simple ones to sweeten someone’s day’ Mr B loves these cupcakes, as he can eat them as his breakfast. They are high in protein due to the double quinoa and almond flour. They are high in antioxidants due to the raw cacao, which also has calcium, …
This is adapted from a Seed & Mill recipe, my favorite brand of Tahini. They use high quality Ethiopian sesame seeds, giving a deep roasted quality to the Tahini. The granola is sweet and salty, with plenty of antioxidants from the raw cacao and healthy fats from the nuts. You can also adapt it, using …
