Ok, I blog about the recipes I love the most! But, I don't remember the last time that I came up with something so good that I just had to stop (after I ate it, of course) & blog about it right then & there! Well...... that time is now! I just came up with the absolute most fantabulous dish to date! I am calling it a Fruitcake because it's made like a pancake but with fruit..... so it's a Fruitcake! Let me tell you, this was so good that I turned right around & made it again but made it into Fruitcake Muffins so I could have them to eat on for a few days.
SOOOOOO GOOOOOD!!!!!!
Simple, sweet, fruity, filling, healthy & at around 200 calories - sooo very figure friendly!!!!! You have got to try this! I know I will be making this A LOT from now on! It'd be so good for breakfast but since I love breakfast for dinner, I ate it for dinner tonight! There are all kinds of different fruit options that I am sure would be wonderful in these! I used blueberries & strawberries but I would love to try peaches, like Peaches 'n Cream Cakes...... apples, like Apples Pie Cakes & top with honey, bananas, like Banana Cream Pie Cakes & top with natural peanut butter...... YUM!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fruitcake (with toppings) |
Fruitcake
cake ingredients:
4 egg whites
1 Tbsp unsweetened almond milk
1/2 C fresh (or frozen) fruit - I used strawberries & blueberries.
1/2 Tbsp vanilla
1 Tbsp Stevia
topping:
1 vanilla carb smart yogurt
1/2 Tbsp Stevia (optional but it gives the yogurt a sweeter taste that makes it taste more like a topping instead of just yogurt.)
Fruitcake without toppings |
Stir the Stevia into the yogurt in a small bowl or in container & spread on top. Then I added a few more pieces of fruit & a sprinkle of pecans!
And get ready for some seriously happy
taste buds my friend!
Fruitcake Muffins |
For the muffins, I did the same thing but used 6 whites (for 6 muffins) & just added a little fruit to each muffin cup after filling them 1/4 with the egg mixture. I am practicing extreme willpower because I haven't tried one of them yet but I know they will be equally as delightful! And maybe easier to deal with since the flipping won't be an issue. They are so pretty too aren't they?!
I LOVE PRETTY FOOD!!!! I love it even more when it's
HEALTHY, YUMMY AND PRETTY!

seems to be missing some sort of flour or flour equivalent......
ReplyDeleteI think oat or coconut flour would be fantastic in added to this recipe! When I made it, I was going for something different....... kinda like a fruit omelet sort of thing. :)
