* VEGAN Banana Bread *

Hello everyone! 

Once again I'm SO sorry I haven't been active for a LOOOOONG time. College just got me super busy, but now I'm on my summer holidays so (let's pray) I have more free time to dedicate to this blog :).

In August this year i fully committed to the vegan lifestyle and today I'm giving you my VEGAN banana bread recipe. It's super duper good and it's High Carb Low Fat so for all the hclf vegans out there here you go:

Ingredients:

• 4 ripe bananas (PLEASE USE RIPE BANANAS IF NOT IT'S GONNA BE HARD TO MASH THEM).
• 2/3 cups (around 150grams) coconut sugar (can be replaced with any other kind of vegan sugar)
• 2 cups (250gramos) wholewheat flour.
• A teaspoon of vanilla extract.
• 1 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder.

Instructions:

• Preheat the oven at 180/190° Celsius.
• Smash the bananas in a bowl. (Tip: if your bananas are not ripe enough you can put them without the peel in the microwave for 30 seconds to make them softer)
• Add the rest of the ingredients and mix until smooth.
• Put the mix in a baking mold. If it isn't a non stick mold use some oil or margarine.
• Bake for about an hour. Check it constantly so it doesn't burn. 

And tadahhhh enjoy with some peanut butter, jam, vegan caramel spread or by itself.

It's super delicious and you should try it ASAP!

*Bliss Balls*

I just wanted to let you know that beside being a fashion lover, I'm also a foodie sooooo, this time I have a recipe for you guys!

I love healthy and delicious food, but It's quite hard to get good and natural snacks sometimes...

so I decided to show you guys what I make to avoid eating super processed food and also getting in all the protein and carbs I need!

Here are my *Protein Bliss Balls*

Recipe (makes 18 of this babes):

• 100grms (1 cup) of prunes (you can use pitted dates too).
• 120grms (1 cup) almonds.
• 1 Scoop vanilla protein powder (Optional if you want to give this balls a punch of protein).
• 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.

1. Soak the prunes or dates in warm water for about 5 mins.
2. Put the prunes or dates in a food processor and add only 2 tablespoons of the water they were soaking in.
3. Add the rest of the ingredients in the food processor and process until you get a sticky texture.
4. Make little balls with your hands.
5. Put them in the freezer for a few hours or leave them overnight.
6. Enjoy!!!
