- Scrolla ner för recept på svenska -

A smooth panna cotta with coconut all over — that’s a way to describe this dessert! Topped with a compote that is sweet yet and tangy. And a brittle that is pretty much to die for, so make sure to make a big batch as it goes very well on most things — or just nibbling on at it is!

En len pannacotta med kokos på bredden och tvären, skulle man kunna beskriva denna dessert som! Agar agar är hemligheten bakom konsistensen, och det är ett ämne som utvinns från rödalger. Du hittar agar agar i bakhyllan i välsorterade matbutiker eller i ekobutiker. Kompotten kan göras på i princip vilka bär eller frukt som helst, jag gillar kombinationen av söta jordgubbar och syrliga havtorn, och med ett gäng dadlar i blir balansen mellan sött och syrligt perfekt.

Mandelknäcken rekommenderar jag att göra en dubbel sats (minst) utav, den är nämligen riktigt god och kan så klart ätas för sig själv eller toppad på ungefär alla desserter du kan komma att tänka på!

Kokospannacotta med jordgubb- och havtornskompott och mandelknäck

4 portioner

Kokospannacotta

4 dl kokosmjölk

3 dl mandeldryck

1 ekologisk citron, zest + saft

3/4 dl kokossirap, eller kokossocker

1 nypa salt

3/4 tsk agar agar-pulver

Jordgubb- och havtornskompott

250 gram färska eller frysta jordgubbar, tinade om frysta

50 gram frysta havtorn, tinade

1 krm äkta vaniljpulver

6 färska dadlar, urkärnade

Mandelknäck

1 dl mandelflarn (eller finhackad mandel)

1 msk kokossocker

1 msk kokossirap

1 msk kokosolja, smält

2 msk mandelmjöl

1 nypa flingsalt

Till servering

Färsk mynta

Gör såhär

Pannacotta: Koka upp alla ingredienser till pannacottan i en kastrull, låt sjuda i 3 minuter under omrörning så att agar agar-pulvret säkert löses upp. Låt svalna något.

Kompott: Mixa jordgubbar och havtorn tills slätt. Passera genom finmaskig sil för att avlägsna kärnorna från havtornen. Mixa ihop med dadlarna. Fördela i 4 glas. Häll försiktigt pannacottasmeten över. Ställ in i kylen och låt stelna i minst 1 timme.

Mandelknäck: Värm ugnen till 175°C. Blanda ihop kokossocker, kokossirap, kokosolja och salt. Vänd ner mandelflarn och mandelmjöl. Blanda ihop till en kletig blandning, klicka sedan ut 4 klickar på en bakplåt. Baka i ugn i 5-7 minuter, tills de flutit ut till knäckiga flarn. Låt svalna helt.

Bryt mandelknäcken över pannacottan vid servering. Garnera med mynta. 

Chocolate peanut butter truffle bites

Might be one of the most heavenly chocolate truffles I’ve ever tasted. Very easy to make, with only a few ingredients and melting-in-your-mouth-kind-of-yummy. Any further description unnecessary - let’s get baking!

Chocolate peanut butter truffle bites

Makes 12

Ingredients

3 dl / 1.2 cups rolled oats

1 dl / 0.4 dl cacao (preferably raw)

1 tsp ground cinnamon

1 pinch flakey salt

12 fresh dates, pitted

1/2 dl / 0.2 cups unsweetened crunchy peanut butter

Frosting

8 fresh dates, pitted

3 Tbsp cold pressed coconut oil, room temperature

5 Tbsp water

1/2 dl / 0.2 cups cacao (preferably raw)

1 pinch flakey salt

How to

For the base: Mix oats, cacao, cinnamon and salt in a food processor. Add dates and peanut butter and mix until a sticky batter (I like when there are still some crunch to it so I tend to not mix until completely smooth). Add some more water if it feels too dry. Firmly press the dough in to a a small baking mold (covered with parchment paper). Put in the fridge.

For the frosting: Mix all the ingredients until completely smooth in a food processor. Spread out the frosting over the base. Put back in the fridge for an hour before serving.

Cut in to 12 pieces. Powder with extra cacao and sprinkle with salt before serving. DIG IN!

PS. Store in the fridge, or freezer (if any left…)

Loveable (raw)yum

This is my - semi raw - take on a Swedish classic called Kärleksmums. Chocolaty, slightly salty, sweet, crunchy, creamy and PACKED with plant based protein!

The recipe is from my second book The new green protein where I call them “Kärleksfulla (raw)mums”. That’s not all, it’s also my first ever recipe shared in a live television show! This very morning that happened! So, let’s just say that from this day on this cake will be quite special - not only because it’s yummy and works for as well fika as an afternoon snack but also because it reminds me to sometimes take a step back and enjoy the feeling of reaching milestones. And appreciating where hard work has taken me. Well done!

So, I’ll probably make another batch as soon as I get home (the friendly people at SVT enjoyed it all) and spend the rest of the evening with a couple of blankets, lit candles and all my new cookbooks that have finally reached me!

I know you wonder about the recipe. Here it comes!

Loveable (raw)yum

12 pieces

Base

2 dl / 0.8 cups toasted whole buckwheat *

1 dl / 0.4 cups pepitas

1 dl / 0.4 cups raw cacao

10 fresh dates, pitted

2 Tbsp cold pressed coconut oil

1-2 Tbsp water

Ganache

2 Tbsp cold pressed coconut oil

1/2 dl / 0.2 cups raw cacao

3/4 dl / 0.3 cups water

8 fresh dates, pitted

1 pinch unrefined salt

1/2 dl / 0.4 cups shredded coconut

How to

Mix all the dry ingredients until a fine crumble using a food processor, it’s nice to keep some of the buckwheat whole as that will give an extra crunch! Add dates, oil and water and mix in to a dough. Press out the dough in a small baking tray, put in the fridge.

Melt the oil on low heat. Mix all the ingredients for the ganache, except for the shredded coconut, until completely smooth. Preferably use a high speed blender if you have one - or continue mixing using a food processor - this might take a bit more time.

Spread the ganache over the base, sprinkle over the shredded coconut. the cake in the fridge for at least 20 minutes before serving. I even keep mine in the freezer as I love my bite properly chilled!

ENJOY!

• Toasted buckwheat: Put the buckwheat in a fine mesh strainer. Bring some water to a boil and then pour over the buckwheat. Rinse with cold water and let drain for a few minutes. Toast in a dry pan, on medium heat, until golden and crisp. Let cool.
