Peanut Butter Oat Cups recipe

I haven’t made baked oats in a while and I missed them. So I made a video which is live on YouTube and you can view it by clicking here.
These baked oats are 2 syns for both, using your hexb, part hexa and the 2 syns are for the peanut butter powder (I use PB2 from Amazon or you can get PBFIT from tesco). 

Peanut Butter Oat Cup Recipe

• 40 oats (hexb)
• 50mls of skimmed milk ( 1.5 syns per 100ml so I would say 1 syn or (Part hexa) 
• 1 egg (protein)
• 2 caps of Almond extract or a flavouring of your choice (free)
• 1 tbsp cinnamon
• 1 tsp of sweetener 
• PB2 powder (2 syns per level tbsp)

What you need;

• Muffin tray
• 3 silicone cases
• Preheat your oven to 180 degrees

Measure your 40g oats and put in a jug with your milk and stir. Then add in your egg and mix throughly. Then add your sweetner and flavouring of your choice. Combine all together. 

Place your silicone cases onto your muffin tray or tray, then pour in the mixture. 

Now time to make your peanut butter. So you weigh out two tbsp of PB2. (It is 1 syn per tbsp) then you mix it with water and make the consistency you want. I like mine a little runny as when it cooks, it thickens.

Now you can lick the spoon 😋

Put into your oven on 180 for 20-25 mins. Then leave to cool for 3-5 mins.

             Add me on snapchat “justjulietta”

Then pop them out and enjoy as they are or decorate it with Sweet Freedom choc shot.
Serve with some speed food and yogurt if you like, or if you’re having an SP day have some quark. 

These muffins are perfect for an SP day because it used milk and not yogurt. 

If you make them be sure to let me know here, YouTube or tag me on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook or add me on snapchat “justjulietta” as I’d love to see.

Low syn “Haribo” style sweets

Halloween is coming and having children there will be sweets everywhere. My self control will be tested so what other way than to plan. So I decided to try slimming world sweets, really simple and they work! They don’t taste like harbio but they’re like jelly sweets and will certainly do the trick for me.

What you will need;

• Ice cube silicone moulds
• Cupcake silicone (also work for bigger sweets)
• One sachet Hartley’s sugar free jelly (1.5 syns)
• One sachet of gelatine
• 1/2 pint of boiling water
• 3 tablespoons of fat free yogurt

Boil you kettle. Fill a jug up to 1/2 pint. Then stir in the gelatine, you will need to stir this well. Then add in your jelly and mix.

Next you will need to fill each section of your mould up half way. Once done place in the fridge to set for 20mins.

I let the remaining mixture cool for 5 mins, then add in the yogurt and mix well.

Once the 20mins is up take the moulds out and fill them up with the yogurt, jelly mixture. If you’ve any left mixture left over, fill the cupcake moulds as they work well for larger sweets. Then chill for another 20 mins or until set. 

Enjoy x

Sweet Freedom (Review)

Do you ever find a staple product and always have to have it? Well thats how I feel with Sweet Freedom products. If you have been following my blog you know I am following Slimming World and being a chocolate and honey lover well that makes it difficult, until I found Sweet Freedom. For each of their products it is only 1/2 syn per level teaspoon!! Yes you read that right!

Sweet Freedom has 5 different products;

• Choc shot
• Choc shot coconut
• Choc shot orange spice
• Syrup
• Syrup (dark)

I use the syrup (which tastes like honey/maple syrup) in my over night oats, pancakes, baked oats, over fruit and nuts. The choc shot I use over ice cream, fruit, pancakes, baked oats, to bake with and a hot chocolate! The hot chocolate is so good when it’s made with Choc shot and Almond unsweetened milk!

I was so surprised by the taste of the syrup, it is a beautiful and thick syrup. I was worried that it wouldn’t be thick because it is so low calorie and vegan friendly, but it is! Heavenly! The same applies for the Choc shot, it is thick and has a gorgeous taste. I have raved about it that much in my Slimming World group around 50 members have bought it in the last few weeks, as we have our own group page and I always share my baked breakfast which all have Sweet Freedom products used in them.

Each product for me serves a different purpose depending what I am in the mood for. Recently I was inspired by the Slimming World HiFi macaroon bars and made Chocolate macaroon baked oats, where I used the Choc shot coconut which worked a dream.

Chocolate Macaroon Baked Oats (5 syns)

When I fancy a Terry’s chocolate orange the Choc shot orange spice hits the spot! I bake with it then add some over the top, delicious!!

Chocolate orange weetabix (5 syns)

The syrups are perfect for pancakes and waffles, yum! I am getting hungry just thinking about those. Waffles are my new obsession and the syrups are like the icing on the cake.

Chocolate weetabix waffles (1 syns)

The things you can make with Sweet Freedom products are amazing. If you check out their Instagram and website you’ll be blown away by the range of recipes and how other people are using the products ever day. The fact it’s low calorie and a vegan product, makes it top marks! It is a staple that I could not be without, I use it almost everyday and replace it every few weeks!

You can purchase Sweet Freedom products from Asda, Tesco, Morrisons, Boots and many other stores, which you can find here.

COMPETITION to Win the set of Freedom Freedom product ends 30th September 2016.
