| Fresh Snow this Morning Knee Deep |
The other night I had my *monthly* oat craving. I don't eat very many cooked grains, but I do make sure I get enough carbs for fuel through raw breads and dates (love!) etc. However, around that time of the month I get crazy fruit or carb cravings. It's usually around this time I eat 4-5 apples a day or 8 kiwis, 20 dates, etc. Maybe it's the snow, but I was craving oats. There is a fabulous recipe for raw oatmeal I'll have to post. Also see the porridge in a previous post. However, this craving hit at 9pm.. my usual bedtime. I was eating a handful of plain uncooked barley oats while I searched for a healthy recipe as my tired mind was a blank. Thank you Fat Free Vegan Kitchen! This lady R O C K S vegan cooking/baking. I did use her recipe. Not to mess with perfection, but I also changed a good bit to fit my personal needs.

| Yummy! |
1 pint blueberries
1/4 cup agave nectar (I juiced two granny smiths-and doubled the juice-omitted agave)
1/4 cup apple juice
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
2 tablespoons cornstarch mixed with enough water or juice to form a smooth paste (I used arrowroot)
3 cups oatmeal* (regular, not instant)
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
6 ounces unsweetened applesauce (I used fresh pulp from the juicer)
6 tablespoons (3/8 cup) agave nectar (again-subbed juice)
6 tablespoons (3/8 cup) water
1 teaspoon vanilla
I didn't have an issue as I thought I would subbing in extra liquid. The batter was actually perfect. Once baked, the crust was thick and had bits of beautiful green apple skin throughout. They held together wonderfully once cooled. I ate four, cured my craving and the hubs demolished the rest. I must admit he made most of these, while I delegated instruction! :) They aren't very sweet.. so the blueberry filling really pops. They are perfect. Amazing recipe Susan V!

What do you get cravings for? Do you think your mileage can determine what you crave? Do you ever run *silent?*
Jo, we're totally in the same place right now, except that you have snow. I used to always run silent, but I found that longer distances became very tedious and I turned to tunes. They quickly became a habit. My battery died on a particularly difficult run yesterday, and I wanted to give up. I think I want music more for city runs, and no tunes for trails.
ReplyDeleteAs for cravings, I <3 this recipe. I'm going to make it tonight!
Oh, tell me (or Susan V) what you think! I like that idea. Silent for trails. It's safer and more serene. Kind of weird to be listening to dance music etc. when I'm in the woods! ;) I definitely loather traffic noises though. It stresses me out. Good for you for sticking through that moment(s) of GRRR yesterday! :)
