Catherine loves to make healthy snacks for her children, and has shared this one that sneaks beetroot into their brownies!\u00a0 Beetroot is a great source of B vitamins, particularly folate (B9) and many minerals such as manganese, potassium, iron and magnesium which are all essential for good energy production. It also contains a good dose of vitamin C too, to supercharge the immune systems.\u00a0 The recipe does include a reasonable portion of sugar, but not nearly as much as commercial bought cakes and combining it with the fibre in vegetables should slow down its release into the bloodstream and help avoid sharp spikes in blood sugar.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Ingredients:<\/strong><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>125ml coconut oil, melted<\/li>\n<li>150g sugar (I used coconut palm sugar, you could use any brown sugar such as demerara)<\/li>\n<li>1 egg<\/li>\n<li>100-200mls milk (I used almond milk, but any type is fine)<\/li>\n<li>2 teaspoons vanilla bean paste<\/li>\n<li>250g wholemeal flour (I used spelt for extra nutrients, gluten free flour would also work well)<\/li>\n<li>40g cocoa powder<\/li>\n<li>1 1\/2 teaspoons baking powder<\/li>\n<li>250g grated root veg or\u00a0veg pulp* (I used beetroot and carrot)<\/li>\n<li>*optional* 100g dark chocolate chips<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>*I used left over veg pulp from my juice here, but you could just grate the whole vegetables, in which case reduce the milk to 100 mls<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Method:<\/strong><\/h4>\n<ol>\n<li>Preheat the oven to 180 C \/ Gas 4. Grease (with a little oil) and line a 20x30cm baking tin or prepare trays for 12 cupcake cases.<\/li>\n<li>In a large bowl, mix together the oil, sugar, egg, milk and vanilla until well blended.\u00a0At home I use my mixer to speed up the process, but when working with the children mixing by hand is fine (and significantly less stressful!)<\/li>\n<li>In a separate large bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder and baking powder.<\/li>\n<li>Stir the liquid mixture into the dry mixture until well combined, then add the veggies and chocolate chips (if using).<\/li>\n<li>Portion the mixture out into the cupcake cases or spread evenly into the prepared tin.<\/li>\n<li>Bake for approximately 25 minutes for the cupcakes, 30 minutes for the tin, until the cakes spring back when gently touched. Leave to cool for 10 minutes before turning onto a wire rack.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>I\u2019ll be honest, I decorated these ones with some not-so-healthy buttercream, but the kids were only too happy to devour many of them straight from the baking rack before I had a chance to get to the icing stage!<\/p>\n<p>More details can be found on Catherine\u2019s Real Food Nutrition blog <a href=\"http:\/\/www.realfoodnutrition.co.uk\/blog\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">HERE<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2026 don\u2019t go yet \u2013 if you have any\u00a0recipes,\u00a0reviews,\u00a0book recommendations\u00a0or comments\u00a0,\u00a0or there\u2019s something you\u2019d like to see, please send it to\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:studentsocialmedia@bant.org.uk\">studentsocialmedia@bant.org.uk<\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0post it on our\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/groups\/4061266\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">LinkedIn\u00a0<\/a>page\u00a0(BANT Student Network).
