Red Velvet Brookies!!!

Wednesday, 5 February 2014

Oh my goodness. These are good. And oh so healthy! The beautiful red comes from steamed beets not food colouring. Coincidentally, (or not) beets are also what keeps the brownie moist and dense! The the brownie part and the chocolate chip cookie layed over, are both made using oat flour, which means you can make this gluten free Ü 


Came across brookies (brownie cookies) on Pinterest and decided to healthify them ASAP because I wanted to get this post up before Valentines ❤ Day!! Hope you guys make this and try it out! Honestly it isn't too difficult and I think brookies, especially those that are red velvet AND healthy are pretty unique. 


Please use a measuring tbsp to measure cocoa powder so you don't add too much ^^ You want it to be RED. 

Red Velvet French Toast

Red velvetttttttt. The combination of vanilla kissed with cocoa and the cream cheese frosting is just perfection. My frosting is greek yogurt for more protein and less fat but you can totally use cream cheese if you wanted! 


And guys tomorrow is Christmas Eve yay :) I spent today afternoon making cute cards for my family members, hopefully they appreciate it. Also, I won the Christmas recipe contest by funwithmunch so thank you guys so much for voting for me :) 



What you'll need
2 tbsp chopped beet root 
2 tbsp milk
1/4 tsp vanilla extract 
1/2 tsp unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tbsp honey 
1 egg 
2 slices wholemeal bread 
Oil to fry 

1/3 cup greek yogurt to serve 

How to
1. Blend first 5 ingredients together. Make sure there aren't any beet root chunks! Then blend in the egg.
