Luscious and irresistible combination, of wholesome ingredients
Ingredients:
3 over-ripe bananas
3 tbsp. coconut blossom nectar (or agave syrup, pure maple syrup)
3 tbsp. Fushi chia seeds
1/3 cup Fushi virgin coconut oil
1/3 cup milled flax (or my favourite, milled Flaxseed, sunflower seed, pumpkin seed and goji berry mix)
1 ¾ cups ground almonds
1 tbsp. lemon juice
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp bicarb
1/3 cup chopped walnuts for topping
Method:
- 1. Preheat oven to 170 degrees C and coat cake tin in coconut oil to prevent sticking
- 2. Ground the chia seeds in a pestle and mortar. Transfer to a bowl and add 9 tbsp. of warm water and stir well (1 tbsp. chia + 3 tbsp. water = 1 egg substitute. Therefore, because we have 3 tsps. Chia we need 9 tbsp. water). Leave to soak while you are preparing the rest of the ingredients
- 3. In a large bowl, mash bananas and coconut oil together
- 4. Add coconut blossom nectar, lemon juice, vanilla extract and bicarb
- 5. If the chia seeds have become ‘gloopy’ they are ready to add. If not, give them a few more minutes
- 6. Add the chia mix to the bowl, mixing in well
- 7. Add the flax and ground almonds
- 8. Sprinkle over the chopped walnuts for decoration (you can use any nuts/seeds for this)
- 9. Pour into cake tin and place in oven for 1hr. I usually end up covering the cake with foil in the last 20mins to stop burning
- 10. Take out of oven and leave to sit for 20-30 minutes to cool
Enjoy!....

- The Great Pomegranate Seed Oil Jan 15, 2021Hi Kianouche, Thank you for your message. I would recommend to mix pomegranate oil with Marula oil for what you are looking to treat. A few drops of antioxidant-rich Marula oil mixed with Pomegranate oil can boost efficacy and help restore your skin’s functions in perfect equilibrium. Long term use may visibly minimise pores, brighten the skin, protect it from the oxidative damage caused by pollution, tones down pigmentation and assists with scar tissue healing. Hope this helps :)
- The Great Pomegranate Seed Oil Jan 15, 2021Hi I’ve bought some of your pomegranate oil, together with rosehip and marula oils. Which of the other two oils would be better to mix with pomegranate oil for mature skin with hyperpigmentation due to sun damage and sometimes prone to spots and milia when using rich moisturisers. Also, can I use pomegranate oil by itself or combined with either of the other two oils around my eyes
