Wholewheat Ladi Pav

     Pav is basically a soft and puffy Indian style bread recipe made with flour and dry yeast. It is ideally served with Pav bhaji, Vada pav, Bhaji Pav, and many other Indian street snacks and Chaats. It is so popular in the streets of Mumbai that people eat Pav with their tea, breakfast, as snacks, and also for dinner. This is a whole wheat Pav recipe that doesn't contain any Maida/All purpose flour. I have tried all the proportions of APF and whole wheat flour. I got great results but always felt that there must be a completely healthy option for this Pav. So finally tried making them completely with whole wheat flour and the results were amazing.  Even though you don't get that too soft texture in this recipe...still they are soft and puffy enough just like the maida ones. This recipe requires very few ingredients. The process of making them definitely requires some practice. I will be explaining the method in detail. Let's dig in the recipe! IN

Blueberry Swirl Loaf Cake

This is a wonderful recipe for Loaf cake which is so moist and flavourful. You will definitely make it again once you will try it.    I usually make round or square cakes never baked a loaf cake. Always wondered how beautiful it rises and looks so delicious!! I got inspired by the base recipe from Julie Blanner, and I decided to bake it making it healthier... I was literally amazed to see the result. It's so easy and at the same time healthy. This recipe is eggless, made with whole wheat flour, Refined sugar-free since I always opt for it's healthier alternative which is coconut sugar.This recipe requires minimal ingredients to whip up and is ready in an hour. Perfect with your tea /coffee...also can be served for breakfast. Grab and go healthy snacks for those times when you don't have much time to cook. Here I have made a blueberry sauce with fresh blueberries. It is again a very simple recipe that I will be sharing.

Healthy Mini skillet cookie

Thats when I got the base recipe from Lean Green Nutrition Friend. It was a perfect recipe to bake in my mini cast iron skillet.   This cookie is made up of chickpea flour/Garbanzo flour which may surprise you.

Or when you are alone and want to have something sweet but healthy...this is the perfect recipe. Tastes heavenly when you eat it along with Ice cream scoop on top. I added my homemade 2 ingredient Ice cream scoop and it completely enhanced the taste of the cookie. Let's see the main ingredients here : Chickpea flour which is high in protein and so nutritious. Coconut sugar is not only a healthy alternative to refined sugar but adds a lovely
