Black sesame smoothie bowl


Smoothie bowls are perfect breakfasts on some days for me when I am not able to cook elaborate ones. This not only satiates your hunger but also fulfills your daily nutrition. I must say Sesame seeds are basically packed with health-boosting minerals, rich in calcium, magnesium, and copper. Especially black sesame is rich in calcium and good fats that are necessary for good health.

 So in order to make breakfast super healthy, I am here with a Black Sesame Smoothie bowl. Very simple and can be done quickly. You must try this recipe because it is sugar-free as you need to add honey or maple syrup.

You will require a black sesame paste which is very easy to make. You can add garnishes as you wish.

Eggless Brazilian Cheese Bread

Pao de Queijo (pronounced as pown -deh- kay-zho) aka Brazilian Cheese Bread is a small baked cheese bun, a popular snack and breakfast food that originated in the state Minas Gerais of Brazil. These are bread/buns usually made with tapioca flour, milk, oil, cheese, salt, and egg/egg substitute. Since I don't use eggs in my baking I have used vinegar instead. These are soft, chewy and so addictive. I love to make healthy bakes from all around the world. Inspired by this YouTube video by Something Dave and I gave it a try as it was an eggless version.These came out so well. These are super simple and easy to make with just five ingredients. A must try because they are gluten-free, contain no yeast, no baking powder, yet so soft and cheesy😋 I had never tried baking with tapioca flour...and found it so interesting to bake with. The dough is too sticky and you will need some extra flour to be dusted to make balls out of it. I have used plant-based pa...
