Alrighty.
Just baked some LOW G.I. Apple pie flavoured soft cookies.
Here they are. Words are not enough to describe how yummy they are- I am speaking from a true non- sweet tooth person's point of view- I will expalin more on this later on.
And if they don't look very yummy. Forgive me and my blackberry.
This is how I made them.
You will need:
Preheat your oven at 150C.
2 random apples, peeled and grated.
2 packs of small instant oats, I use apple and blueberry ones. But I am sure 80g of any normal oats will do.
100g wholemeal flour, however, I have something far better so in a typical chefy style- ie, we use what we have in our dry store- I used this cool thing: Oat bran and some plain flour mix. Let's say: 90g/ 10g
14 tsp of Splenda or somthing like this- sweetener.
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 cup ground almond
2 eggs
3 tsp vanilla essence
Here comes the weird bit: 1/2 cup of WHATEVER soft runny sweet things you have in your kitchen. I had hoped to have a small tin of baby apple puree but unfortunately I am not- and probably will never (if I carry on working a lot...) to have a baby in the house so this is a no go. I am talking more like the directions of honey, maple syrup, soft RUNNY jam, golden syrup.... you get it. I have a jar of homemade quince jelly by the lovely French mum of an ex which I don't know what to do about. (I mean the runny jelly...) So I just poured some into my mix.
Mix everything together. Then add 1/2 tsp of baking powder. Mix it in properly again.
And now it comes the easy bit: if you, like me, find it impossible to resist buying all of those Unnecessary kitchen equipments whenever you put a foot in the shops. You will, like me, have one of those, silicon mini baking moulds. Oil those little holes and spoon some heap mix in each of them. If you don't have them- then I congratulate you for your strong wills and your bank accounts. Just line a baking paper over your baking tray and drop a tsp of those mix, with some space apart from each other, like 3 cms.
Bake them for 30 minutes.
Happy late Easter!
