Food Thread: Food Item of the Week
- Chocolate
A dish I created with chocolate is chocolate granola cereal lunch. It contains chocolate, oatmeal, flax seeds, salt, marshmallow, crispy rice cereal, sunflower seed butter, and vanilla extract. After the batter is made, it is baked in the oven for 18 mins with an 8 min cool down. Then you can eat the granola as a cereal or in bars. Here is a picture of them:
What about you? What foods have you created with chocolate? I am excited to see your creations 💕.

@Desmynn6789 I cook with a chocolate substitute, carob. I make pancakes
.
Carob pancakes �
3 egg whites beaten till frothy
combine and add scant 1/4 cup of whole wheat or other flour + 1/2 tsp baking powder +1/8 cup or more of carob powder
Add 2 Tbsps of Olive Oil
add 1/8 cup yogurt
add 1/2 banana peeled and diced
dash salt if desired
Combine all above with whip or mixer
Batter should be thick as cake batter - if not add more flour and carob powder
Cook in electric fry pan 300 degrees F with a coating of canola oil for 5-7 minutes per side or less for thinner pancakes. Rule of thumb when all the bubbles burst, it is time to flip and cook on the 2nd side. If using stovetop, cook low to medium heat so do not burn pancakes
Bon appetit! Enjoy!
