Lean chocolate cake without baking.

Ingredients:

  • apples (any sort) - 6 pcs. large or 8 pcs. middle
  • bananas - 2 pcs.

  • almonds - 1/2 tbsp (125 ml)
  • oat flour - 2 tablespoons
  • cocoa - 3 tablespoons
  • sugar - 1/2 tbsp. (125 ml)
  • honey - 3 tablespoons
  • carrageenan or agar agar (cake jelly) - 1 sachet
  • water - 1/2 tbsp.

How to make a lean pie:

1.Carrageenan is a vegetable substitute for gelatin. As you know, gelatin is made from the bones, cartilage of animals. Carrageenan is extracted from red algae, it swells well and takes on a jelly-like structure. Carrageenan is sold in the store in the form of jelly for cakes. You can also take agar agar, which is also made from algae. This cake does not need to be baked; it will be enough for it to stand for 15 minutes in the refrigerator to harden.

2. Peel the apples, cut in half and remove the seeds. Cut the apples into large pieces. Pour half a glass of water into a saucepan and let the water heat up. Put the sliced ​​apples into hot water and add half a glass of sugar. If your apples are sweet, you can add less sugar. Cover the saucepan with a lid and simmer the apples over low heat for 15-20 minutes until tender.

3. Almonds need to be ground into flour. Use a coffee grinder or blender grinder. Grind until finely crumbled. Almonds can be substituted with whatever nuts you like.

4. Soak the dates in warm water for 5 minutes. Add to water citric acid or lemon juice to soften the fruit. Then drain the water and blot the dates with a paper towel to prevent the water from dripping off.

5.Mash the dates in the chopper. You get a viscous mass. Add it to almond flour... Also add a couple tablespoons of oatmeal to these ingredients.

You can buy oat flour ready-made. And you can do it yourself, grind oat flakes like nuts.

6. Knead the three ingredients into a dough. It is convenient to do it with your hands. You will get a dense sticky cake.

7. Cover the bottom of the split mold with cling film. The film is needed to make it easier to remove the lean cake from the mold.

8. Place the resulting date dough on the bottom. This will be the bottom of the pie. Use your hands to spread the dough all over the bottom. It doesn't have to be perfectly aligned. An uneven surface will bond better to the second coat.

9. Place the first layer cake pan in the freezer for 10 minutes.

10 Place the bananas in a chopper and add three tablespoons of cocoa to them. Make banana puree.

11. Make mashed apples too. The applesauce should be hot. So put it on the stove to heat up. When applesauce boil, it must be combined with carrageenan or agar-agar. To make the connection process better, put a couple of tablespoons of hot applesauce in a bowl, add all the thickener to it and stir until smooth. Then put this puree with carrageenan in a saucepan with the rest of the apples. And let the puree simmer for one more minute.

Vegetable thickeners for a good jelly need to boil for a minute, which we did.

12.Place the banana puree in the applesauce and mix. You don't need to heat the bananas, just add them to the hot apples. This banana apple jelly will be the second layer of the pie. Pour the jelly into the mold that you remove from the freezer. Shake the mold a little to smooth the jelly.

13.Let the jelly cool (5 minutes) and put the cake in the refrigerator for 10 minutes. Carrageenan, like agar-agar, solidifies very quickly, unlike gelatin.

14.After 10 minutes, remove the frozen cake from the refrigerator. To gently remove it from the mold, you first need to walk along the edge with a knife. Then open the mold and remove the boards.

15.To transfer the cake to a plate, grasp it by the plastic wrap and transfer it gently. Remove the film. The jelly on top turned dull. To keep the cake shiny, brush it with a thin layer of honey. Use a silicone brush for this.

16. Decorate the cake with any nuts if desired. That's all. This lean pie is easy and quick to prepare, freezing in a minimum of time. Vegetable thickeners make the jelly tender, similar to a soufflé. If you use gelatin, there will be a firmer consistency. The pie is bright chocolate flavor and a sweet date cake. Be sure to prepare this cake. As you can see from the recipe, the main tool for preparing it is the chopper.
