Healthy Breakfast Pudding
You all probably know white sugar is evil. But still I can often hear that you can’t live without breakfast or a snack that doesn’t contain any sugar. Of course it would be perfect not to sugar at all (easy, I’m not planning to start another no-sugar challenge anytime soon :)). But if you find it hard to give up sugar completely, try to use some of its healthy substitutes. Let me tell you today a few words about one of my favorite alternatives to sugar, which is coconut sugar.
Ingredients:
- 50 g basmati rice
- 100 ml coconut milk
-
1 tablespoon coconut sugar
-
1 tablespoon coconut oil
-
1 tablespoon cocoa
- a handful of forest fruit (for decoration)
Buy Coconut sugar
Coconut sugar is obtained from the coconut palm juice from which the water has been evaporated. It has a deep brown color and an intense caramel flavor. It isn’t as sweet as white sugar, but when added to dishes, it gives them a unique taste and aroma. It has a lower glycemic index than white sugar, so it is an excellent alternative. How about a delicious breakfast pudding with coconut sugar? Healthy and tasty at the same time. You won’t regret it! And it looks amazing, too…
Preparation:
I cooked rice in coconut milk and when rice absorbed the milk, I added some water. Then I stirred in all the other ingredients apart from cocoa and blended until smooth. I transferred the pudding into a bowl, decorated with fruit and sprinkled with some cocoa.
