Making raw cinnamon rolls~ 

We've been capturing my parents house out in the countryside for a while now (I have been loosing track of the days, which indeed is a result of the nature taking over my mind... aaaah!) They are out traveling so we couldn't miss the opportunity to escape the city for a week of working, chilling and reconnecting. We still have sauna bathing on our schedule :) And making a bonfire out in the forrest. Connecting with the elements is vital for my wellbeing. 

Earlier this week we had the Day of the Cinnamon roll in Sweden, so I figured I could try make some in a raw version. I've been wanting to try to roll a raw dough in the making of different desserts and it wasn't as tricky as I imagined. Though not like rolling a non raw dough. You could do it with nut flour as you would roll a non raw dough (but with wheat flour), or use plastic film. I rolled these buns using plastic film. I made a fatty, salty, sweet and spicy filling and sprinkled with bee pollen. You will see more of these babies later.  















This is a very nutritious smoothie with immune boosting ingredients such as the raw coconut butter/oil, the berries and purple corn. Antioxidants and a good quality fat is just what you need when it's getting chilly and dark.

Kokosfett, menar du kokosolja då, eller är det något annat? Jag kan inte tänka mig att det är den processade kokosfettet i blått och silver man hittar i mataffären, eller?

Elenore: hihi, ja vad gjorde man utan mossa lixom? :)

Gab: Yes, it's been really energizing, and have given new perspectives on things. Im grateful of this week. Hugs!

Tess: Ja kokosfett, kokosolja är samma. Jag menar det kallpressade, ekologiska kokosfettet. Hihi det kokosfettet man hittar i mataffärer duger nog mest att göra tvål av :D Men tänk om det kom en dag där man kunde köpa bra kokosfett i en vanlig mataffär. Det vore nått!
