to soak them in

water fi rst.

Greek Yoghurt Panna Cotta

Recipe / Lisa Guy

Including fermented foods such as yoghurt in your diet is an excellent

way to support gut health, which helps promote good digestion, mood

and immune function. Greek yoghurt is rich in protein and provides

your body with the amino acids it needs to build and repair muscles,

maintain healthy hair, skin and nails, and heal wounds. Yoghurt is

also a good source of vitamin B12, which plays a vital role in healthy

nervous system and brain function.

Serves: 4

3 tbsp water

1½ tsp powdered grass-fed

gelatine

1½ cups full-fat Greek yoghurt

1½ cups coconut cream

3 tbsp raw honey or 100 per

cent maple syrup

1 tsp vanilla bean extract

or paste

Strawberry Compote

1 heaped cup sliced

strawberries

½ tsp rose water

2 tsp raw honey

Pour water into small bowl , sprinkle with gelatine and allow to sit.

In medium bowl, mix yoghurt and ¾ cup coconut cream and

mix well.

In small saucepan over medium heat, combine remaining

coconut cream, honey or maple syrup and vanilla. Bring to

simmer for 2 mins. Remove from heat and stir in gelatine.

Pour mixture into yoghurt mix and combine.

Pour mixture into 4 glasses and put in fridge to set.

In small saucepan, heat strawberries, rose water and honey

for 3 mins.

Top panna cotta with compote and serve.

Cypriot Lemon Almond Cakes

Recipe / Jacqueline Alwill

A scrumptious, zesty and nourishing take on a traditional Cypriot semolina

cake. I’ve swapped semolina and sugar for almond meal and maple syrup

in this recipe, which tastes just as good (if not better) as the original while

making it c hock-a-block full with skin- and heart-loving healthy fats.

Makes: 8 mini cakes

4 free-range eggs

2 tsp lemon zest

⅓ cup maple syrup

1½ cups almond meal

2 tbsp coconut flour

1 tsp baking powder

Sea salt

Preheat oven to 175°C and grease

8-cup muffin tray.

Whisk eggs, lemon zest and

maple syrup in bowl until creamy.

Add almond meal, coconut flour,

baking powder and pinch of sea salt.

Mix well.

Pour into muffin tin and place in

middle of oven to bake for 20 mins.

Cool in tin for 15 mins.

Serve with coconut or Greek

yoghurt or enjoy on their own.
