Eggless Oats Blueberry Peach Pancakes - No added Sugar!

And by now you know my love for English breakfasts, I don't think I need to reiterate that. Pancakes are one among them which I love the most. But because of all purpose flour, and its not so good carb content, I stay away from pancakes even if I love them so much, and just make it so occasional when my mind cannot push back my taste buds thinking about pancakes all the day.

I got over this trauma by finding the best ever pancake mix that everyone would love and try for yourself and see how good it is :) Oats the wonder complex carbs, and you will be surprised that this healthy pancake version tastes better than its Maida counterpart.

This is an option for vegetarians too, as eggs are avoided and another wonder of nature, mashed bananas are used with yogurt to get the texture. To make this version more exotic, as this was one of the breakfasts I prepared for my Gauthappan during my last vacation to home. His tastes so much matches mine, so I never had a trouble finding the best stuffs that he would enjoy to the core. Like Mommy like son :-* 
This pancake is a combination of both of ours favorite, dried blueberries and canned peaches chopped, with peach juice poured over the pancakes. I am not joking, seriously I kept the left overs in fridge taking my portion size needed for the meal, but I couldn't stop myself peeking into the fridge and take small bites from it frequently passing by the fridge every time :P


Ingredients:

Oats flour - 1 cup (I used rolled oats and powdered it in mixie)
Salt a pinch
Banana - 1 mashed
Cinnamon powder -1 1/2 tsp
Coconut oil - 1 tbsp
Baking powder - 1/2 tsp
Milk - 1/4 cup

Toppings:
Blueberries - 1/4 cup
Peaches - 1/2 cup chopped
Peach juice - 1/4 cup
Coconut oil to smear the pan each time


Method:

Mash the bananas and add milk, salt, Cinnamon powder , coconut oil, baking powder and whisk well. Now add oats flour and combine to a batter. Do not over mix.
In a pan, smear coconut oil and pour a ladle full of batter. Top with blueberries and cook till bottom side is well done. The top starts to dry out, then is when bottom is cooked well. Now flip to other side and cook for 1 min. Do not spread the batter as traditional pancakes are thick and fluffy and we want to maintain that. 

Arrange the pancakes one on top of another and pour the peach juice over it. Now, top with chopped peaches and serve.

Grilled Chicken in Quinoa Tortilla wrap

Healthy meal preparation is so satisfying, as we know we are feeding our loved ones with clean food. When I say clean food it does mean, non processed, with balanced nutrients, and not in expense of the taste. These healthy tortilla wraps are so yummy that you will not even imagine it has so many hidden good stuffs in it. I am like my mom, she is too smart to hide the good stuffs in whatever she prepares and we will not even know what we just ate had something which we hate if given in its form. Now I have acquired that smartness too and just few days back I prepared an Avocado Mango smoothie for one of my colleague and she told, "I hate Avocados! My mom would be surprised if she comes to know that I had Avocado. But how yummy your smoothie is ! " I was glad that I could make someone eat a healthy thing which they hated ever, and my hiding skills worked out.  The same lady was fooled by my papaya halwa, she is a papaya hater too :P Fooling people is good som...

Ayala Pollichathu - Mackerel roast in plantain leaves

This is yet another traditional Kerala recipe, in which fish is roasted in plantain leaves. There is a two step process in cooking fish, first by shallow frying and then roasted inside a plantain leaf covered with masalas. So my experience with pollichathu was with Karimeen alone until this time, my favorite fish, which is called Pearl spot in English. All these while I haven't tried any other fish for this recipe. So let me tell you the story of how Ayala came into picture :D This happened on one fine day, my mom in law was telling me that the women who brings fish has brought lots of Mackerel and many other fishes and convinced her to buy a lot of them. So she was in a confusion on what will we do with all these, as weekend was almost going to finish and everyone of us moving to different places. And the same curry or fry would be boring and won't be appreciated by the men's league at home :D Then I went for helping her with the fish dilemma, she was having and...

Bionico - Mexican Fruit Dessert

I was looking for a dessert which is simple and healthy for today and what came to my mind was Parfait. But the day was Mexican themed and I didn't want to deviate for the dessert part and spoil my theme plan ;) I was looking for similar desserts of Mexican origin, coz I wanted an easy healthy option and has base ingredients which I already have at home.  My search for the recipe ended in this great dessert from Mexico, The Fruit Bionico, which resembles parfait in many ingredients, just some difference in some of them. And I found an interesting factor in it and that strengthened my decision to go on with this. Yes, that is nothing but, our own freshly grated coconut :P Bionico is on sweeter side when compared to Parfait because of its sweetner condensed milk. I had my jars saved from Frozen bottle ice cream cakes, and that helped me to give my Bionico that ramp ready look. After the layers were set up, I was going crazy with the photos, as the beauty was looking so pr...
