Healthy Oatmeal Raisin Cookies


Very yummy oatmeal cookies! I adapted this from a youtuber named "hockie", a Japanese mother who has two cute kids. The recipe is easy and healthy. I made some changes onto her recipe though. Hope you like it. =D

Ingredients:
3 tbsp vegetable oil
3 tbsp mango juice (any juice is fine)
3 tbsp honey
3/4 cup raisins (more is fine too)
150g all-purpose flour
1 tbsp baking powder

Steps:
Mix all till combine. Bake in preheated oven of 350 F for 15-20 minutes. Cool on wire rack.

Very easy recipe and also healthy. No egg & no milk. You can add in any nuts if you like too. =)

Tips:The batter is very sticky, so handle carefully. You can put some flour onto your hands first before you scoop onto the baking sheet.



Happy baking =)

Blueberry Jam Quick Bread


Another blueberry baking project using my homemade blueberry jam. This is a blueberry quick bread. It has the textures of a cake and a bread. It does not require any yeast, thus make this bread easy and quick. It has a nice smell, and it is low in sugar as well.

Ingredients:
1 egg
80g sugar
150g all-purpose flour
60g vegetable oil
60g milk
1 1/2 tbsp baking powder
1/2 tbsp salt
100g blueberry jam

Steps:
1. Preheat oven to 350F. Grease a loaf pan with oil or butter or cooking spray. Line a parchment paper at the bottom of the pan.
2. Beat egg, sugar and oil till combine. Mix in milk. Add in the dry mixture and stir till well-combined.
3. Pour the mixture into the loaf pan and add in the blueberry jam on top of the batter. Use a knife to swirl it.
4. Bake for 45-55 minutes or a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Be careful not to burn the top of the cake. Mine is slightly burnt, but still edible.
5. Cool completely on wire rack and enjoy with more blueberry jam on top or other jams.




It is very moist and very good for breakfast. Easy to make and healthy. So...........
Happy baking =D

"Very-Berry" Homemade Blueberry Jam Muffin


A Very Berry Homemade Blueberry Jam Muffin that I have created. Love the "jam-ness" inside. Super much JAM! Haha.. I just want to finished the blueberry jam that I  have made.Forgive me that all these posts were not current baking projects. I'm trying to catch up to my blogging now. Be patient with me ya, I appreciate it! =D

Ingredients:
1 egg
60g vegetable oil
60g sugar
100g blueberry jam
1 tbsp baking powder
130g all-purpose flour
50g milk

Steps:
1. Preheat oven to 350 F.
2. Beat egg, sugar and oil till combine.
3. Add in milk and mix.
4. Sift in dry mixture till combine then stop mixing.
5. Scoop in batter into lining baking paper till 1/2 full. Then put one big tablespoon of blueberry jam into the baking cup and swirl it together using a bread knife.
6. Bake for 12-15 minutes or toothpick inserted comes out clean. Leave to cool and enjoy!

This homemade blueberry jam is very healthy and tart. Not at all sweet. It is very different between fresh and frozen blueberries. The fresh ones really give you the tartness and the freshness. So do expect the blueberries jam to leak out its juice into the muffin. Very much indeed.

 See how juicy this muffin is. Don't put too much though. I have been greedy. >.<

Baked Red Bean Paste Mooncake (Failed =( )


First attempt to make baked mooncake. Not-very-successful. It lacks of the greasy taste and softness of mooncake. It's a failed attempt I guess. It is not very easy to make baked mooncake. IT is easier to make snowskin mooncake. But, I'm not sure why snowskin mooncake actually worth more in the market. The price is higher! Weird. But, my boyfriend said it is still okay. Just needs improvements. Thus, I'm not sharing nay recipes till improvements is made. Hehe.. Let me make it better so that I can share it with you next time. >.<


I made 9 small pieces only, so luckily I did not waste much. I think I used the wrong syrup for this which makes it tastes weird. Hmmmmm......

However, still blogging about it.
