Most healthy fitness recipes are not quick and easy. Quite
often - they can take close to 20 minutes to prepare - then
another 30 minutes to cook. Not to mention the clean-up
time after the meal. Worry no more - this one takes less
than 13 minutes to prepare and only 20 to cook.
While it may be a little longer than you wish, it's worth
the little bit of extra time. When you taste these healthy
snacks - you'll be glad you took the 33 minutes to put them
together.
Simple fruit based snacks are an easy, fast and inexpensive
way to get high quality nutrients into your fat loss and
fitness diet. However, it is also easy to go overboard when
it comes to the calorie content that can be loaded into
these quick and simple treats.
From your choice of fruits to how you actually combine them
with other ingredients, can make the difference between
bloating yourself up with unnecessary carbohydrates and
sugars, or feeding your body in way that leaves you full of
energy & satisfied, while keeping you in a favorable
calorie range.
INGREDIENTS: NOTE - use organic ingredients if you can...
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 tablespoon ground flax seeds
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon powder
- a pinch of sea salt
- 1 large egg - lightly beaten
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/3 cup skim milk (fat-free)
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large, mashed up, ripened banana
- 1/3 cup chopped-up dried figs
1) Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Then coat an 11 inch by 7
inch baking pan with non-stick cooking spray. Combine
flour, flax seed, cinnamon, baking powder and sea salt in
large bowl.
2) In medium bowl - stir together egg, brown sugar, 1/3 cup
skim milk, olive oil, and vanilla. Then mix in banana and
fig pieces. Add all this to first large bowl with flour
mixture and stir. Spread evenly in pan.
3) Bake for 20 - 25 minutes - or until toothpick inserted
at center comes out clean. Remove and let cool for 15 - 20
minutes.
4) Cut into 20 squares and EAT.
- each square is about 80 calories - 2 of these are perfect
for a daytime snack or satisfying pre-bedtime snack.
For 80 calories per square you get a nutrient dense,
well-balanced, great-tasting, appetite-satisfying fitness
snack that can fit into almost anyone's fat loss & fitness
program. You can also create your own variations of this to
match it perfectly to your body enhancement goals.
