Tonight's task was making my month's supply of homemade #glutenfree granola. We don't eat a huge amount of meat any more, so I do like my breakfast to include a good pile of seeds and nuts in amongst oat, buckwheat, millet, and quinoa flakes.
This granola will also be coming to Glasgow with me next week as it will be one of the few meals I will have that I know I'll be eating safely while away from home.

Lifestyle | Foodie | Family | Bryony on Instagram: "Rustic Beetroot, Chocolate and Rose Brownies (Gluten & dairy free) ๐ŸŒน Ingredients that work! Beetroot makes brownies extra moist, naturally sweet and richer in colour without altering the chocolate flavour! Coconut oil keeps brownies moist and dairyโ€‘free and the almond flour makes them tender, nutty and glutenโ€‘free. Rose water is a fragrant liquid made by steeping or distilling rose petals, used to add a delicate floral flavour to food and drinks. Dark chocolate has more cocoa solids and less sugar than milk chocolate, giving brownies a deeper flavour and making them less sweet. INGREDIENTS: โ€ข 200g cooked beetroot, finely grated โ€ข 150g dark chocolate (dairy-free), chopped โ€ข 100g coconut oil or dairy-free butter โ€ข 3 large eggs โ€ข 150g coconut sugar or soft brown sugar โ€ข 1 tsp vanilla extract โ€ข 1 tbsp rose water โ€ข 100g almond flour โ€ข 30g cocoa powder (unsweetened) โ€ข ยฝ tsp baking powder โ€ข Pinch of salt โ€ข Dried rose petals (for topping) โ€ข Optional: crushed pistachios or flaky sea salt METHOD: 1. Preheat oven to 180ยฐC (160ยฐC fan). Line a square tin (20cm) with parchment, letting it overhang for easy lifting. 2. Melt chocolate and coconut oil gently in a pan or bowl over simmering water. Stir until smooth, then remove from heat. 3. In a large bowl, whisk eggs, sugar, vanilla and rose water until light and slightly frothy. 4. Stir in the grated beetroot and melted chocolate mixture. 5. Fold in almond flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt until just combined. The batter will be thick and glossy. 6. Pour into tin, smoothing the top. Scatter with dried rose petals and any extras like pistachios or sea salt. 7. Bake for 30-35 minutes until the edges are set but the centre still has a slight wobble. A skewer should come out with moist crumbs. 8. Cool completely in the tin. Slice into imperfect squares. Let the crumbs fall where they may. To note: โ€ข Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for 1 month (they'd be gone first day) โ€ข If new to beetroot baking - you can boil, steam or use vacuum-packed beetroot (not pickled)"

It is one of the fruits that has fewer carbs and is therefore tolerated by many. A medium-sized lemon contains around 0.6 grams of fructose - this is significantly lower than many other fruits. The recipe is self-paired, meaning it can be eaten just the way it is without having to add additional protein and fats - however I found when I ate too much of it, it did spike my bloods so for me it's fine when portion controlled.
