Cake for Dinner

This cake has all the healthy components of a well-rounded S meal. It contains veggies (although you’d never know it), a balanced amino-acid protein profile, prebiotic cleansing fiber, and superfoods, including thermogenic fat of the healthiest kind. Go ahead—don’t just have a little piece for dessert; eat a big ol’ one for dinner! Pair it with some Tummy Tucking Ice Cream (page 363) and you’ll feel full and satisfied. You haven’t spoiled your dinner, you’ve perfected it. Live a little and don’t stick cake on the dessert menu only (although we guess you are allowed to eat this as a dessert, too).This recipe is found in the "Sweet Treats - Family Cakes" section of the Trim Healthy Mama Cookbook, page 311. This recipe makes a family-serve cake.

1 Family Serve Cake

Ingredients
  • coconut oil spray
  • 3/4 cup TH Baking Blend
  • 1 1/2 Tbs TH Psyllium Husk Flakes
  • 2 1/2 Tbs TH Gentle Sweet
  • 2 doonks TH Pure Stevia Extract Powder
  • 1 1/2 tsp aluminum-free baking powder
  • 8 oz radishes (diced, but not peeled)
  • 1/2 tsp TH Glucomannan ((Gluccie))
  • 2 Tbs extra virgin coconut oil
  • 3 large egg (s)
  • 6 egg white (s)
  • 2 tsp TH Natural Burst Vanilla Extract
  • 1/4 tsp sunflower lecithin (n (optional))
Instructions
  1. 1
    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Lightly coat a large baking sheet or 2 smaller ones with the coconut oil spray.
  2. 2
    Place the Baking Blend, psyllium flakes, Gentle Sweet, stevia extract, and baking powder in a large bowl. Put the radishes, Gluccie, coconut oil, eggs and egg whites, vanilla, and lecithin (if using) in a blender and process to a smooth puree. Add the puree to the dry ingredients in the bowl and mix well, until smooth.
  3. 3
    Spread the batter on the baking sheets until ¹⁄³ to ½ inch thick, as if you were making focaccia. Bake for 30 minutes. When cooled, slice into 2 by 4-inch rectangles that can be stacked one on top of the other.
  4. 4
    Spread whichever icing you choose on each layer, then top with the remaining layers. Ultimately, the number of tiers you end up with will depend on how many layers you use to form a cake.
Note

From page 311 of the Trim Healthy Mama Cookbook...
"Imagine a world where someone who needs to lose weight or find renewed health is told to eat a large slab of cake for dinner. That world is not just in fairy tales—it’s your world now. One where cake whittles the waistline and floods the body with vitality and vigor. This cake has all the healthy components of a well-rounded S meal. It contains veggies (although you’d never know it), a balanced amino-acid protein profile, prebiotic cleansing fiber, and superfoods, including thermogenic fat of the healthiest kind. Go ahead—don’t just have a little piece for dessert; eat a big ol’ one for dinner! Pair it with some Tummy Tucking Ice Cream (page 363) and you’ll feel full and satisfied.  You haven’t spoiled your dinner, you’ve perfected it. Live a little and don’t stick cake on the dessert menu only (although we guess you are allowed to eat this as a dessert, too).

The cake is pleasantly sweet but not so sickly sweet that you couldn’t eat your fill of it. Depending on which of the two icings you choose, you get either a double dose of carefullychosen, nutrient-dense, and weight-reducing veggies or a serving of high-antioxidant red raspberries. The Princess Icing is soft and sweet, the Raspberry Tart Icing is bursting with tangy berry flavor. And Mamas with food sensitivities, take notice! This cake is completely gluten- and dairy-free!"
