This buckwheat cake with cacao and pearls is one of my favorite cake recipes, ideal as a special breakfast or dessert, especially for those days when we feel like something a little sweeter and sweeter in Phase 1.

Gluten-free and delicious

In addition to being very healthy and delicious, this cake is also gluten-free as it is made with buckwheat flour. So it is also ideal for celiac people.

Try a different version

Although the combination of pears and cocoa is one of the best, you can give this cake a different touch by using carob flour instead of cacao powder, or by using apples instead of pears.

Buckwheat bread is a flavorful and naturally gluten-free bread. And unlike most gluten-free bread recipes, it’s not that dense.

Healthy and gluten-free

The best thing about this bread is that it requires a very short and above all healthy list of ingredients. It is a bread with a special flavor and is naturally gluten-free, so it is perfect for everyone.

Freeze your bread

Another great advantage of preparing this bread is that you can cut the slices you want and freeze them, to always have homemade, healthy, and gluten-free bread available.
Check out the recipe video here:

Phase 1 Serves: 16 Prep Time: Cooking Time:

Ingredients

  • 3 cups of buckwheat flour
  • 1 1/2 cup of warm water
  • 3-4 gr of dry baker's yeast
  • 5 grams of salt
  • 10 gr of psyllium husk (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix the yeast with a little warm water.
  2. In a large bowl, put the buckwheat flour and add the yeast and water mixture. Mix well.
  3. Add the rest of the water little by little and you see mixing to incorporate it. The result should be a smooth, homogeneous, and flexible dough.
  4. The dough is sticky and quite dense, pour it into your mold lined with greaseproof paper with the help of a spatula. Make sure the dough is distributed throughout the mold. Smooth the surface of the bread with the spatula.
  5. Cover the mold with a cloth, and let the dough rest in the oven off but with the light on for about two or two and a half hours, until it has doubled in size.
  6. Preheat the oven to 180 ºC and bake your bread between 40 and 50 minutes. To check if the bread is ready, do the toothpick test: if when you stick the toothpick in it comes out clean, the bread is ready, otherwise, it needs a little more time in the oven.
  7. Unmold your bread and let it cool on a rack. Do not cut it before it has cooled completely.
  8. When your bread is cold, you can slice it and freeze it.

This recipe is suitable for Phase1 – FMD P1.

The Escalivada is a traditional dish here in Barcelona. It is a simple but delicious dish, consisting of fire-roasted vegetables, but since we cannot have a barbeque every day, I have thought of proposing an oven-roasted version.

The Escalivada is very versatile, you can use it as a side to any dish, put it on top of toast, eat it alone … If you want, here you can see my Instagram Reel (video) of this recipe.

  6. When the vegetables are well cooked, take them out of the oven and let them warm for a few minutes, so that they are not so hot when you go to peel them.
  7. Very carefully peel all the vegetables and remove the seeds from the peppers. Be especially careful not to burn yourself on the peppers as they can contain very hot water inside.

Breakfast is my favorite meal, although it hasn’t always been that way. It took me a while to get used to having breakfast in the morning, and one of the things that have helped me the most has been preparing sweet and healthy recipes.

Customize your pancakes

I usually eat these pancakes with blueberries on top, but you can give them your personal touch by choosing the fruit you prefer. Raspberries, kiwis, cherries, strawberries, mango, and even tangerines look great. Go ahead and try new combinations.

Making bread at home is one of those traditions that seemed to have disappeared and is now coming back. I personally love to make homemade bread of all kinds, but the rye loaf is certainly one of my favorite bread. It is a rustic bread, denser than wheat bread and with a unique aroma.

The recipe I share is to make excellent and vegan 100% rye bread. It is a recipe that requires only a few ingredients and a pinch of patience to wait for the dough to rise. Below, I also leave you the video of the recipe.

This bread is especially nutritious and satisfying, making it ideal to start your day with energy. In addition, it can be frozen to always have fresh bread on any occasion.

I hope you like it as much as I do!

  • 5.5 gr of dry yeast
  • 1 teaspoon salt

  2. After an hour, add the rest of the water, the rest of the flour and the salt, in the same bowl where you made the poolish.

In the last few weeks I received many messages from different people in Argentina asking me to prepare some Argentine recipe for FMD. Since at the beginning of the year I promised that in 2018 I would make some of the recipes that you ask me, I decided to share a recipe inspired by Argentine cuisine.

Dulce de batata is a traditional dessert from Argentina, Uruguay, and Paraguay, made from sweet potato, in my version I wanted to add squash to make it more original. I have used butternut squash, but you can also use different varieties. It is an easy dessert to prepare, delicious and 100% vegan, and is an excellent way to eat vegetables. I hope you like it 😉

Cacao is one of the oldest foods in the world, in fact  4,000 years ago people like the Maya and the Aztecs used it. These populations mixed it with water, honey and spices, giving life to a strong drink that offered a lot of energy. When cacao arrived in Europe, foods like milk, sugar and butter were added.

Still today I would like to propose a simple recipe, inspired by the cacao drink that the Mayans took. In addition, to turn it into a complete snack my recipe carries egg whites.

It is a really delicious recipe, with an original spicy touch due to the chilli pepper.

I wait for your opinions 🙂

The salted cakes are a dish that is used a lot in Italy, there are all kinds of varieties and they carry the most varied ingredients. The cake that I propose today is a vegan and gluten-free cake, based on zucchini, millet, and buckwheat, perfect for eating alone accompanied by a good salad or open in half and stuffed like a sandwich. It is also an original way of eating vegetables, which children will also like.

The salted cakes are a very old dish, the old Romans used to prepare them with very bitter vegetables to eat alone or with the less noble cuts of meat. In the middle ages, they reappeared at banquets and became increasingly elaborate and sophisticated until they became true sculptures made of dough. Clearly, they were very different from those we can see today, the dough served to contain the filling and was not normally eaten; The existing salted pies did not appear until the invention of the molds.

  3. In a large bowl, mix the flours, baking soda, cream of tartar, salt and thyme.
  4. Add the drained zucchini to the flours and mix until it is as uniform as possible.
  5. Also, add oat or rice milk and mix well.
  6. Cut the tomatoes into slices.
  7. Pour the dough into an 8-inch silicone mold and decorate it with the slices of fresh tomatoes. Sprinkle a little thyme on top.
  8. Bake the cake for 50 or 60 minutes, until it is golden brown and cooked. Prick the cake with a toothpick to make sure it is perfectly cooked.

  • 1/2 cup oat milk
  • 2 egg whites
  • 5 tablespoons birch xilitol
  • 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda
  • 2 3/4 cup of sliced fresh pineapple
  • 1/4 cup of fresh blueberries or cherries

Instructions

  1. Start by mixing all the dry ingredients: flour, 2 tablespoons of xylitol, baking soda and cream of tartar.
  2. Add the oat milk to the flours and mix well.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk the egg whites until stiff and incorporate them into the flour mixture with a spatula. Make enveloping and careful movements, so as not to depose the egg whites very much.
  4. In a silicone mold, put the remaining xylitol, evenly distributed. Place the pineapple slices on top.
  5. Blueberries or cherries can be placed now or wait for until the cake is baked, as you prefer.
  6. You can cut the remaining pineapple into small pieces and put it in the dough.
  7. Pour the dough on top of the pineapple placed at the bottom of the mold and bake the cake at 160 degrees for 25 -35 minutes or until cooked.
  8. Take out the cake upside down immediately. Pay a lot of attention because the xylitol “syrup” could be very hot.
  9. If you haven’t done it before, add blueberries or cherries.
