Beetroot Red Velvet + Wild Orange Flavoured Coconut Cream






Ingredients
  • 2 Large grated beetroot (fresh, not from a tin)
  •  2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • Pinch of sea salt
  • 1 1/2 cup almond meal
  • 4 tablespoons raw organic cacao powder
  • 3 tablespoons coconut oil
  • 2 Tablespoons Organic Honey
  • 1 Teaspoon baking powder

Coconut Cream

  •  270ml Can Ayam Coconut Cream. Leave in the fridge for 24 hours or Place in the freezer 30 mins before whipping
  •  Wild Orange Essential Oil (5 drops) (HERE)
  • 1 teaspoon gelatin



Directions

1. Preheat oven to 180ÂșC and line a cupcake tin with 12 cupcake cases (even if using a silicone tray, still use cupcake cases as it will stick)

2. Blend all ingredients (in a blender/Bellini/thermy, cannot mix this one by hand) until it’s a smooth batter, then divide between the 12 cases. I used my Bellini Intelli, Speed 5, Sharp blade 3 minutes.

3. Cook for 40 minutes.

4. Add cream, oil and gelatine together and whip, I used the belini, butterfly on, speed 3 for 2 mins.

5. Add a small amount of cream to each cupcake.



These cupcakes are Paleo and a great sometimes treat. The pair so well with doTERRA's wild orange. I hope you enjoy them, let me know if you make them :)
