Prep time: 20 Mins Cook time: 5 Mins  Serves: 1 Ingredients 300g Wholefood Earth Dark Muscovado Sugar 200ml Water Half a cup Wholefood Earth Rice Flour 100ml Oat Milk 3 Large Eggs If delicate crepes aren’t your thing then why not celebrate pancake day with an American style short stack! Starting off with a versatile recipe for any homemade syrup, all you need is a small pan, sugar and water. On a medium heat you just need to simmer equal parts of your sugar of choice (we’ve gone for rich muscovado) and water, stir frequently and simmer gently without a lid so the syrup thickens and reduces. you’ll have plenty of time to make your short-stack pancake batter in the meantime. Separate three eggs over a large mixing bowl and keep the yolks in a smaller bowl to one side, add 100 grams of sugar to the egg whites and whisk vigorously until you’ve aerated and whipped the mixture into soft peaks, beat your egg yolks and add them to the large bowl and fold them in gently. Add 100ml of milk and half a cup of flour. Whisk gently to get rid of the lumps but be careful not to knock the air out, this is what will give the pancakes their volume. You should now have a nice thick, bubbly batter that's ready for frying! Check on your syrup and remove it from the heat if it's bubbling away. <img src="https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0027/6008/1477/files/websize-ap-5_240x240.jpg?v=1613128257" alt="" style...

It's nearly the New Year, and many people set themselves New Year's resolutions to help guide them into building new healthy habits. These healthy resolutions often include eating healthier. There's just one problem; most people don't stick to them! In fact, YouGov reports that only about 25% of people stick to their New Year's resolutions. We want you to join the elite 25% who stick to their new year's resolution, so we've made a list of our New Year's tips to help you sticks to your new lifestyle. Stock a Pantry Our first tip is to stock up on some pantry staples . Having a well-stocked pantry has been a significant life-hack this year during the first lockdown, and both for the environment and your wallet. A well-stocked pantry contains at least some grains, flour , oil, vinegar, tinned foods, salts and spices , and nuts and seeds . Having these basic pantry staples in your home makes it less likely that you order unhealthy foods. Using the pantry staples as a foundation, you always have a tasty, healthy meal within reach and you reduce your chances of slipping up and buying that cheeky take-away that you are keen to leave back in 2020. Even if you suddenly crave sweet or unhealthy foods, you could whip up homemade cookies or pancakes in minutes as you already have most ingredients in! A Step-by-Step Change in Diet Going "cold turkey" before you've finished the leftover cold Christmas turkey is an ill-advised decision. A reason many people give up on healthy lifestyle resolutions is that the changes are overwhelming. To prevent this, we suggest a step-by-step change in your diet and lifestyle. If you want a h...

These days, there are plenty of vegetarian and vegan options available for those who wish to stick to a plant-based diet during pregnancy. Plant-based diets are considered safe for pregnant women as long as you get enough nutrition and can even contribute to a healthy pregnancy. The trick is knowing which foods to fuel you and your growing body with. With that in mind, here are some foods that you can eat during your plant-based pregnancy. Tofu and Setian Products During the second (week 13 -28) and third trimesters (week 29-40) Pregnant women, women need to aim for around 70 grams of protein daily. Tofu and Setian products are very high in protein and can contribute heavily to a healthy pregnancy diet. Blend soft tofu into smoothies or cut chunks of tofu up to incorporate into stir-fries or other dishes. You can use Setian as an additive in burritos or vegetable hashes. Lentils Your pregnancy is a great time to load up on those lentil soups and big lentil salads. These complex legumes are ideal for pregnant women because they pack a lot of protein and fibre. Not only will they keep you nice and full, but they also taste delicious and are endlessly versatile. Nuts Nuts are high in protein and good fats, and they are also a hearty source of iron and zinc. Iron is vital for a healthy pregnancy, and you will need to come up with creative ways to incorporate it into your diet if you are not planning on eating meat. Nuts are delicious, and you can enjoy them as a snack, or add them to just about any food you can imagine. Leafy Green Vegetables These nutritional powerhouses will do your body good during your pregnancy. They are packed with all sorts of nutrients that...

Cobalamin (Vitamin B12), a water-soluble vitamin, plays important roles in your body. The recommended daily intake for this vitamin is 2.4 mcg per day for adults. Vitamin B12 food sources include dairy products, fish, meat and poultry. Vitamin B12 is also available on the market as an oral supplement and is added to some foods. For those on a vegan diet, products such as Nutritional Yeast can provide a viable source of B12. Vitamin B12 nasal spray or injections can be prescribed in the treatment of vitamin B12 deficiency.  Deficiency is rare because the human body is able to store vitamin B12 that can be used for several years. However, for those following a vegan diet or vegetarian diet, they can be susceptible to deficiency since plant foods do not contain vitamin B12. Individuals with digestive tract disorders that affect nutrients abortions and older adults are also prone to vitamin B12 deficiency. Here are some of the health benefits of vitamin B12. Helps with Anaemia Prevention and Red Blood Cells Vitamin B12 plays an important role in the production of red blood cells in your body. Low vitamin B12 levels lead to a reduction in the formation of red blood cells and inhibit them from developing properly. When the red blood cells are healthy, they are small and round. When you have a vitamin B12 deficiency, the red blood cells will become larger and oval in shape. As a result, the red blood cells won't be able to move from your bone marrow and go into your bloodstream at a proper rate, which results in megaloblastic anaemia. When you are anaemic, your body does not have adequate red blood cells for transporting oxygen to all your vital organs. This can lead to symptoms such as weakness and fatigue.  May Reduce Risk o...

Did you know cholesterol is vital to us? It gets a bad rap, but this fatty substance, which is in every cell of your body, is used to make vitamin D and steroid hormones. It even helps to make bile, which you need to digest other fats! We get some cholesterol from the foods we eat, but around 80% is made by our very own liver in an impressive 37-step process. What is High Cholesterol? The problems start to emerge when you have too much cholesterol, specifically too much non-high-density lipoproteins. ... Er, what!? ... So, it turns out there are two main types of cholesterol: one is considered good and the other bad. High-density lipoproteins (HDL) is considered good cholesterol, as it gets rid of the bad cholesterol. Non-high-density lipoproteins (non-HDL) is bad cholesterol because when there is too much, it builds up and clogs the arteries. This makes it harder for blood to flow efficiently and can lead to some nasty side effects down the line. Who is Most Prone to High-Cholesterol? It's important to note that anybody can get high cholesterol, however, some people are more prone to it than others. There are some factors which cannot be controlled, but others are lifestyle habits. Those who eat too much-saturated fat, do not get enough exercise and have too much body fat around their middle are at greater risk of developing high cholesterol. Likewise, if you smoke, are overweight or have diabetes, you are at more risk. Unfortunately, there are some risk factors which you can't control, such as your age,...

Many of us took this year’s Working From Home stint to reflect on what we really want and need in our homes. Many started DIY projects. Others moved to a house with a garden. And everyone was suddenly really conscious about what they had in their pantries , cupboards and freezers. The mass-hoarding that happened at the start of the first lockdown was difficult to navigate, but thankfully there are a lot of ways to store emergency food supplies that would have prevented any worry. Here we’ll give you a list of nutritious foods that are easy to store for a long time. Grains and Flours Storing Grains is easy. Grains like bulgur, brown rice, spelt and barley keep well for months in an airtight container and are a great base for most meals. They are also great additives to vegan  or gluten-free diets as many grains do not contain gluten but do contain a whole host of other nutrients to enrich a diet with. Flours, made from grains or things like almonds or soy, also keep really well in a pantry. In a clean, airtight container, they will last for several months. Flour is great to have in stock at all times; those times you crave some late-night pancakes? With flour in your house, you can whip some up in minutes! (Dried) Fruit We all need plenty of fruit in our diets. It contains many healthy vitamins and minerals and fibres. One of the notorious disadvantages of fruit is how quickly fruit goes off, and it is generally not seen as a food great for storage. How wrong we all were. There are so many varieties of dried fruit nowadays, that you never again need to worry about not having fruit in your pantry. Why not stock up on some delicious dried <a href="https://wholefoodearth.com...
