Some New Fava Flour Recipes

By Paul Thompson


The qualities of fava beans are lately more and more appreciated. The beans are used for making really tasty and meaty flour. Thanks to the fact that fava flour recipes don't contain gluten and are really rich in fibers, common meals might become tastier and healthier, and this works for sweets as well as for breads, pizzas and other popular foods.

This particular ingredient is often mixed with garbanzo beans, and can be used instead of rice flour in different recipes. Experts recommend that you keep it in your refrigerator, and that you use a little bit more baking powder when you use it in your usual recipes. In the beginning, you might want to replace only a part of your ingredients with this new one, just to get used to this new taste.

There is one really easy recipe you could start with. This quick apple cake takes just a little time and effort to make, and tastes really nice. You will need three to four apples, sliced, three eggs, one cup of fava flour, one tsp of cinnamon, baking powder and vanilla sugar, one cup of ground walnuts and the same quantity of sugar and a half of a cup of some vegetable oil.

The first thing you should do is to switch on the oven, on 180 degrees of Celsius. Take a non-stick pan and spread the apples mixed with one spoon of sugar and cinnamon on the pan. Bake it for maybe fifteen minutes. Mix egg whites with the rest of sugar, add yolks, vanilla and oil and continue mixing. Add all dry ingredients, mix it all together and spread over baked apples. Put it back into oven for another fifteen minutes.

When baked, the cake should be turned upside down. Maybe you would have to correct the surface. It's nice to decorate it with some whipped cream or some other topping of your choice. Lactose intolerant people could use non-dairy whipping. When it comes to sweetness, the amount of sugar depends on your personal taste. This particular cake is not very sweet, but it's easy to change it.

Fava and almond cookies are also really easy to make. You will need one egg, one cup fava flour, the same quantity of ground almonds, sugar and butter each, one tsp baking powder and cinnamon and a pinch of cardamom. Mix together egg, sugar and butter and add dry ingredients. Bake on the non-stick pan for fifteen to twenty minutes on 180 degrees of Celsius.

Here is another quite unusual but really tasty dessert. It is called Poppy muffins with raisins and dark chocolate. For preparing it, you will need three eggs, one cup each of fava flour, vegetable oil, sugar and ground poppy seeds. You also need half of that quantity of raisins and chocolate chips, and a little bit of cinnamon, baking powder and vanilla, depending on your taste.

Eggs and sugar should be well mixed. Then, you have to add vegetable oil, cinnamon and vanilla. First combine dry ingredients with this mixture, and then add raisins and chocolate chips. Bake in molds for muffins, for maybe 15 minutes or so. Decorate with icing, chocolate chips, some kind of topping, it's up to you.
