Everyone sometimes wants something sweet. Even men like to eat homemade chocolate cake. If we compare home-made desserts with their counterparts from the store, then the latter lose in many respects. For example, homemade sweets are considered healthier and tastier by most. But on the other hand, they often turn out to be more high-calorie and harmful to the figure.
Let's talk about how you can make a healthy and tasty dessert at home with minimal harm to your figure.
1. Oatmeal cookies are perhaps the most popular cookies in our country. It is not at all difficult to prepare it. Typically, 100 grams of cookies contain over 400 calories. But we will prepare it in such a way as to significantly reduce the calorie content of the product.
So, we need:
- half a glass of oatmeal
- 1, 5 Art. l. honey
- 1 egg
- 50 grams of butter
- flour
- ½ tsp soda
Place the butter and honey in a large bowl, add 1 egg and mix thoroughly. Pour the resulting mixture with oatmeal and mix thoroughly. Finally, add flour and soda. Bake for 5-7 minutes at 180 degrees.
2. Dessert of avocado with banana. This straightforward recipe is popular for its avocado content. As we know, avocados are extremely rich in vitamins and minerals, and regular consumption of this fruit can serve as the prevention of many diseases.
To prepare this dessert, we need:
- 1 banana
- 2 tbsp. yoghurt
- avocado
- walnuts
Grate avocado and banana on a fine grater, add two tablespoons of yogurt and mix. You can sprinkle with walnuts.
3. Delicate yoghurt dessert.
To prepare a delicate yoghurt dessert, we need:
- yogurt
- marshmallow, 2-3 pieces
- a handful of dried fruits
- marmalade
Add finely chopped dried fruits, marshmallows and marmalade to the yogurt. Place in the refrigerator until completely frozen. We take it out and eat it like ice cream!
If you wish, you can combine different foods and make your own desserts. Remember that dried fruits, honey, jam, although they are natural and healthy sweeteners, are still quite high in calories. If you want to make your dessert sweet but not overly high in calories, add them wisely. 1-2 tablespoons of honey or a small handful of dried fruits will not harm your figure. Also, do not forget to clarify the calorie content of each product according to the calorie table. So, nuts, banana, avocado are quite nutritious in their composition. Therefore, if you are striving to lose weight, they should not be abused either.
