Dietary dessert made with kefir
Description
The baking is simple and quick. I find it very hard to live without sweets—my hand constantly reaches for cookies, cakes, or candies. That's why I prepare these muffins using kefir as a base, with the addition of oat flakes, cocoa, and bananas. The finished baked goods are low-calorie and diet-friendly, yet delicious and aromatic (thanks to the cocoa). If you pour the batter into one large baking pan instead of individual muffin molds, you'll get a fantastic cake. Serve it cooled or slightly warm.
