Strict diet outlet - special dessert
It's no secret that overweight is a serious hindrance in the personal lives of many people. Extra pounds are constant dissatisfaction with one's own figure, an additional burden on the body and a decrease in personal self-esteem. And in order to get rid of excess weight, you have to go on a strict diet, which not everyone can handle. It is especially hard for those who love sweets. But it turns out that you can combine diet, fitness, cakes. Recipes for such desserts exist, and we offer one of them.
Combining incompatible
A real result when losing weight gives an integrated approach that combines regular physical activity and the correct, balanced diet. But this does not mean that desserts should be abandoned altogether. Useful sugar-free fitness cakes are a real find for the sweet tooth who want to maintain the perfect shape of their body. It is about vegetable desserts.
So, a carrot fitness cake is considered an excellent option for a healthy cuisine. This vegetable is generally one of the main components in diet food: it is not only used in the preparation of soups, salads and main dishes. Delicious casseroles, pies and muffins, rolls and muffins are made from carrots. The menu of many coffee houses and small restaurants very often contains these delicious treats.
Cooking a Tender Fitness Cake at Home
In fact, this healthy dessert is easy to prepare at home. Having mastered some recipes, any housewife will be able to bake a delicious vegetable treat in the oven, microwave or slow cooker.
To prepare cakes, you will need:
- 2-3 medium carrots, chopped on a fine grater;
- 3 chicken eggs;
- 5 tablespoons of bran (can be replaced with oat or multi-cereal flakes) - they need to be crushed;
- a little sweetener;
- cinnamon, stevia or vanilla is perfect;
- ½ teaspoon of baking powder;
- a pinch of salt.
Mix all the ingredients. Place the resulting dough in a baking dish and place in an oven preheated to 180 degrees for 30-40 minutes. If carrot biscuits are cooked in the microwave, then the cooking time is reduced to 10-15 minutes. Do not forget that the dishes for baking in a microwave oven must be appropriate! The readiness of the cakes can be checked with a toothpick.
To prepare a diet cream, you will need:
- the yolk of one chicken egg;
- 200 grams of low-fat cottage cheese;
- ½ cup of milk;
- ½ teaspoon sweetener, cinnamon or stevia.
Beat the yolk, add milk, mix thoroughly and heat over low heat or in a steam bath, stirring constantly. The resulting mass should slightly thicken after a while. Beat cottage cheese with sweetener, gradually pouring custard. As a result, a mixture is obtained that resembles thick sour cream in consistency.
Ready cooled cake layers are cut lengthwise into 2-3 parts. Each layer is lubricated on both sides with cottage cheese custard and laid on top of each other. Nuts, fresh or dried fruits are used to decorate the fitness cake. If desired, you can sprinkle the cake with grated orange zest and cinnamon.
The cooked dessert is placed in the refrigerator for several hours, so that the cakes are completely saturated with cream.
