In the world of food and nutrition, Em The Nutritionist has been making waves with her tantalizing recipes and nearly 2 million Instagram followers. Her latest offering, "Live to Eat: The Food You Crave, The Nutrition You Need," promises a collection of nutrient-packed and flavorful dishes, including the Strawberry Shortcake Yogurt Breakfast Loaf.
The Strawberry Shortcake Yogurt Breakfast Loaf is a delightful twist on a classic dessert, transformed into a nutritious breakfast option. The recipe, crafted by Emily English, the author of the book, requires simple and readily available ingredients.
To start, gather 2 large free-range eggs at room temperature, 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, 100g caster sugar, the zest of half a lemon, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1 cupped handful of diced strawberries. For the dry ingredients, you'll need 150g oat flour or ground oats, 50g plain flour, and 50g ground almonds. The star ingredient is a whole tub (450g) of Skyr-style strawberry yogurt. Additionally, the recipe calls for 1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda and 2 teaspoons baking powder.
Once you've gathered your ingredients, preheat your oven to 190°C/170°C fan. Mix the wet ingredients together, then gently fold in the dry ingredients, followed by the yogurt and strawberries. Pour the batter into a loaf tin or, if a loaf tin is not available, bake the mixture as muffins instead.
Bake the Strawberry Shortcake Yogurt Breakfast Loaf for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean. Let it cool before slicing and enjoying this delicious breakfast treat.
Each portion of the Strawberry Shortcake Yogurt Breakfast Loaf is under 210kcal and contains 9g of protein, making it a satisfying and low-calorie option for those watching their intake.
