Skinny Peanut Butter Swirl Brownies

Got the recipe from Echa's Pinterest. You can see the recipe from Sallys Baking Addiction blog. Super fudgy brownies made without white flour, butter or oil!

I'll copy paste it for you...

Ingredients:

• 3/4 cup (185 grams) creamy peanut butter (do not use natural, runny peanut butter or powdered "peanut butter")
• 6 oz. low fat or fat free vanilla greek yogurt
• 1/4 cup (60 ml) skim milk (or almond milk)
• 1 large egg (or 2 egg whites)
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 cup (200 grams) granulated sugar  (see note above in post about substitutions)
• 1/2 cup (64 grams) unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1/2 cup (40 grams) old-fashioned rolled oats

 

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350F. Spray a 8×8 inch pan with non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.
2. Place all of the ingredients except for the peanut butter into a blender or food processor. (Yes, a blender!) For easier blending, place the liquid ingredients into the blender first. Blend until mix is smooth and oats are ground up. You will have to stop the blender and scrape down the sides a few times.
3. Pour batter into prepared baking dish. Batter will be thin. Microwave peanut butter for about 30 seconds. Drop melted peanut butter by spoonfuls onto the batter, swirling gently with a knife to create a marbled effect. (Try not to overmix!)
4. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until brownies begin to pull away from the sides of the pan. Brownies will be extra fudgy, so be sure to wait until COMPLETELY cooled - I stuck mine in the refrigerator for 2 hours, which allowed them to be cut very easily. Cut into squares and enjoy!

Happy Val's day ♥

Whether you celebrate Valentine or not...

have a nice day ♥

It takes a pencil to draw, a book to open up their imagination & a very small contribution to make a big difference :)

Dear all,

Adalah salah satu mimpi saya untuk bisa membantu anak-anak di Indonesia. Kebetulan teman baik saya, Nila dan Eva, mengajak saya untuk berbagi dan meluangkan waktu untuk mengunjungi anak-anak Taman Bacaan Pelangi di beberapa daerah bagian Indonesia Timur dalam waktu dekat ini. Dan, kebetulan pula sudah lama sekali saya ingin berkunjung ke tempat tersebut.

Taman Bacaan Pelangi adalah organisasi nirlaba yang mendirikan perpustakaan bagi anak-anak di pelosok Indonesia bagian Timur. Tujuannya adalah menumbuhkan minat baca anak dan meningkatkan akses terhadap buku bacaan berkualitas bagi anak-anak tersebutl. Didirikan pada tanggal 5 Desember 2009 oleh Nila Tanzil, Taman Bacaan Pelangi saat ini telah berada di 26 desa yang tersebar di 11 pulau di Indonesia Timur, antara lain: Flores, Timor, Lombok, Sumbawa, Sulawesi, dan Kepulauan Banda di Maluku.

Terhitung bulan ini, biaya kelas yoga saya akan didonasikan untuk anak-anak di Indonesia bagian Timur. Dan juga biaya kelas Kutakatik saya. Setiap 1 anak yang ikut 1 kelas yoga, akan membantu 10 anak di desa pelosok Indonesia Timur untuk mengikuti workshop kreatif di Taman Bacaan Pelangi. Sebagai informasi, satu desa bisa sampai dengan seratus anak.

Hanya dibutuhkan satu pensil untuk menggambar, satu buku untuk membuka pikiran, dan sebuah kontribusi kecil untuk membuat perbedaan.

Ayo ikut kelas KidsYoga atau ikut Kutakatik Art Craft Class. Untuk info lebih lengkap dan kalau mau ikut menyumbang bisa email ke: kyra.pradiono@gmail.com


Terima kasih :))

Dear all,

It has been among my dreams to help indonesian children. Fortunately my good friends, Nila and Eva, asked me to join them to share and spend some time with children from Taman Bacaan Pelangi (Rainbow Reading Gardens) in remote areas of Eastern Indonesia, a place I wanted to visit.

Taman Bacaan Pelangi is non-profit organization which set up community libraries for children living in remote areas in the eastern part of Indonesia. Its aim is to nurture the children's interest in reading and increase their access to quality books. The library will enable the children in the most remote areas access to good quality books. Established in December 5, 2009 by Nila Tanzil, Taman Bacaan Pelangi is now available in 26 villages spreadout in 11  islands in East Indonesia, among them: Flores, Timor, Lombok, Sumbawa, Sulawesi and the Isles of Banda in Maluku.

This month, I will donate my earnings from my kids yoga class to the children in East Indonesia. Also from my art and craft clas. Income received from every child taking 1 yoga class will cover the fee of 10 children in the remote areas (1 village may have up to 100 children) of eastern Indonesia to participate in a Creative Workshop at Taman Bacaan Pelangi.

It takes a pencil to draw, a book to open up their imagination,  and a very small contribution to make a big difference. 

So come join my KidsYoga class kiddos or Kutakatik Art Craft Class . For more info and for those who are interested in donating, kindly email to kyra.pradiono@gmail.com

Thank you :))

"Aku tak pernah tahu adakah kata yang lebih baik dari ‘aku mencintaimu’.

Karena ‘aku mencintaimu’ begitu penuh. Begitu seluruh.

Aku mencintaimu. Sudah. Cukup. Pas.

Aku mencintaimu. Sederhana. Bersahaja.

Aku mencintaimu. Indah. Pasrah.

Aku mencintaimu. Dan jika kauharus ditelan malam, aku memilih mencintaimu di mana saja.

Karena jika aku harus mencintaimu, aku mencintaimu demikian saja.

Dan ketika aku mencintaimu, aku mencintaimu begitu saja. Tanpa jeda.

Karena, sayangku, jiwaku, nafasku, udaraku, airku, hidupku, saat aku mencintaimu, aku kau. Dan kau aku.

Biar kurasakan hidupmu di telapak kakiku. Sisa-sisamu.

Biar. Cukup sudah."

Simple hearty breakfast

Made this simple hearty breakfast. Just toast 1 whole wheat bread. After that, cut a heart shape in the middle of the bread with a knife. Or you can use cookie cutter if you want to. Make lots of shapes, I bet the kids would love this! Then I put some butter on the pan, then put the bread, and then put the egg into the heart shape. Sprinkle some herbs on top, and just wait until it's cook (to taste). Easy right?
