Cookie Dough Ice Cream Sandwiches! (Raw Vegan!)

Screenshot 1

Hi Guys! Welcome back to the food blog ;)

Today we have one of the most decadent summer recipes I know of, the amazing ice cream sandwich. Only this time, we have made it #modeldiet worthy, filled it with all the good stuff and left all the not-so-good-for-you stuff out!

The recipe is pretty simple and straight forward, you just need a blender and a freezer. I bet you want to get on with the reading now and just make the recipe. Let's go!

Cookie Dough Ice Cream Sandwiches (Raw Vegan)
 
Author: Cecilie Hjorth
PREP TIME: 15 minutes
TOTAL TIME: 3 hours
Servings: 4-6 cookie dough ice cream sandwiches
Category: Dessert / Snack
Cuisine: Gluten-Free, Vegan, Low-Fat, Sugar-Free, Oil-Free, Raw Vegan
Does it keep? 1 month in the freezer
  

Ingredients

Tools needed

Instructions

  1. Add all the dough ingredients except oat flour and cacao nibs to a blender. Blend until smooth, don't worry if it's a bit runny since you will be adding the flour.

  2. Add flour and cacao nibs and divide into two. Spread into two seperate square molds lined with parchment paper. Add to the freezer for 60 minutes

  3. After an hour, take the cookie dough squares out of the freezer. Start preparing the ice cream by adding two frozen bananas, a dash of vanilla and plant milk to a high speed blender and blend until creamy

  4. Spread the ice cream on one of the cookie dough squares. Add the other square on top and freeze for another hour! A bonus tip is to spread a bit of peanut butter mixed with agave syrup on one or both squares as it makes the ice cream sandwiches extra delish!

  5. After an hour, take out the big ice cream sandwich and cut it up into 4-6 sandwiches. Ready to serve and eat like this or re-freeze them for a future delight! Let them thaw for 2-3 minutes before eating them as the banana ice cream can be a bit hard.

I hope you like it! If you make it, take a photo and tag @celiahjorth on Instagram and I will re-share it on my stories!

MY 22 DAY WATER FASTING EXPERIENCE

Screenshot 5

Hello everyone! And welcome back to the blog!

Before I start my story, I just want to say that water fasting can be a dangerous healing modality if done wrong and has to be done under professional medical supervision and only in the right conditions. Please do not do this at home. And please do not do this for weight loss!! I explain in the video why. My water fast was medically supervised and following the instructions to the t.

Today I wanted to go into depths with my experience of doing a 22 day water fast back in 2014. For 22 days straight I ate absolutely nothing, I was in bed all day and I just drank water. I wanted to cleanse and heal my body, and more importantly my soul. Did I achieve that? Watch the video below to see my full story!

To recap, I experienced the following benefits from the water fast:

  • 50 pound weight loss overall
  • Healed connection with my body
  • Increased intuition and 6th sense
  • A renewed sense of life
  • Feeling reborn, new, ready to start a new life
  • Food tasting amazing and all cravings for junk- or unhealthy foods gone

But let's also be real, there are potential side-effects:

  • Long-term weight gain (gaining all the weight back and more)
  • Eating disorder like behaviour or full blown eating disorder
  • Loss of period for 7 months following
  • Purity or perfectionist, rigid mindset
  • Isolation from the rest of the world 

 While I am no expert in water fasting, I hope you enjoyed my video! If you want to know more, send me a message through my site or comment on my YouTube video :) If you want to start a healthier lifestyle, remember that it is all about your daily habits! Start by eating healthy today, a 10 day waterfast does not undo 2 years of poor food choices. I was eating healthy and wholesome both before and after the fast and it was never an excuse to break that pattern. The book you see below, I finished writing just before my fast and I published it right after. This was the way I was eating! Go have a look at it to get inspired on how to live a healthier lifestyle.

Easy Raw Vegan Granola Recipe!

Hi guys and welcome back to the blog!

Today we keep going along the raw vegan ride! I just posted a super exciting interview on my YouTube channel, with raw food guru Lissa Raimondi, otherwise known as Lissa's Raw Food Romance. In the name of that I want to share this super easy, delicious and everyday raw vegan recipe. My easy raw vegan granola!

Most people think granola is a health food, but if you read the ingredient list of most granola's in your supermarket, you will find they are packed with refined sugar, oils and even chemicals. Even so called organic granola can be packed with cane sugar and oil, which are absolutely not foods that support health. This granola is free from all of that, and it is gluten free as well. You do need a dehydrator to make this granola, but you can also make it in the oven on the lowest setting, baking with the oven door slightly open. If you do want a dehydrator, this is the dehydrator I use: https://amzn.to/2Ur0uCr and here is a cheaper option: https://amzn.to/37n7YM6. I highly recommend getting one, mine is in use on a weekly basis and I will be having more recipes coming! For just 70 USD you can get a pretty decent dehydrator!

Easy Raw Vegan Granola
 
Author: Cecilie Hjorth
PREP TIME: 15 minutes
TOTAL TIME: 12 hours and 15 minutes
Servings: 10 portions
Category: Breakfast / Snack
Cuisine: Gluten-Free, Vegan, Low-Fat, Sugar-Free, Oil-Free, Raw Vegan
Does it keep? 1-2 months in an air tight container in the fridge
  

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Measure the buckwheat and soak overnight.

  2. A few hours before making the granola, soak chopped dates, nuts and raisins. 

  3. Add all ingredients for the granola in a bowl, finishing up with adding the protein powder, cinnamon, salt and agave syrup. Mix well

  4. Spread the granola evenly on a dehydrator sheet. You want it to stick together, but make the layer thin enough for it to dehydrate well. If making it in the oven, keep the oven on the absolute lowest setting and bake overnight with the oven door slightly open for the air to flow well

  5. After 12 hours, check if the granola is crunchy. It should stick together in big, dry chuncks. If needed, dehydrate for longer time

  6. Once done, serve and enjoy! I love mine on top of a smoothie bowl. Add remainder to an air tight container and place in the fridge!

I hope you like it! If you make it, take a photo and tag @celiahjorth on Instagram and I will re-share it on my stories!

THE BEST RAW VEGAN CINNAMON ROLLS

Hi guys! And welcome back!!
 
Screenshot 2

Today I am super excited to share a recipe with you all which honestly really surpassed my expectations. It is made with such few ingredients - bananas being one of the main ones. And if I may say so myself, I do happen to be a very experienced cinnamon roll eater, which is one the recipes I grew up with and happened to be one of my mom's expertise recipes. So there was a lot at stake making this recipe! But when I took the first bite, there was no way back. Oh my God, so filled to the brim with cream that I couldn't help but fall in love! And it's just made with fruit? HOW?? 
 
Keep reading to learn how!


Raw Vegan Cinnamon Rolls
 
Author: Cecilie Hjorth
PREP TIME: 15 minutes
TOTAL TIME: 12 hours and 15 minutes
Servings: 10 small cinnamon rolls
Category: Dessert / Snack
Cuisine: Gluten-Free, Vegan, Low-Fat, Sugar-Free, Oil-Free, Raw Vegan
Does it keep? 1-2 days in the fridge. Eat fast as banana oxidizes quickly.
  

Ingredients

Tools needed

Instructions

  1. Prepare the bananas the night before so they can dehydrate the overnight. See video below for full instructions. Slice the bananas into 3-4 pieces, lengthwise, and place them on the dehydrator tray. Dehydrate overnight at 40 Celsius (115 Fahrenheit)

  2. The morning after, check the texture of the bananas. They have to be rubbery yet firm. 

  3. Once you are ready to prepare the filling, add dates and cinnamon to a high speed blender. I recommend a vitamix. Add a bit of the water from the soaked dates in order for it to blend more effeciently. Blend until completely smooth and creamy. This filling lasts a week in the fridge, so you can prepare beforehand if you wish.

  4. Spread the filling along a banana slice, lengthwise, and roll it up. Repeat, and roll the next banana slice round the first already rolled one, in order to make a bigger cinnamon roll. You can even use small or broken pieces of the banana, as they can all help make the cinnamon roll bigger. 

  5. Once all rolled up, add to the dehydrator for another 1-2 hours. This will heat them up slightly and make them more firm. This step is optional but I found they came out more delicious like this!

  6. Once done, make the icing by mixing cashew butter, agave syrup and vanilla well. Top the cinnamon buns generously with this. 

  7. Ready to eat! Best to eat right away, they last only 1-2 days in the fridge before the banana part gets too oxidized. 

I hope you like it! If you make it, take a photo and tag @celiahjorth on Instagram and I will re-share it on my stories!

My Last Runway Show

Hi everyone! And welcome back to the blog!

Screenshot 8

Today I want to post the final video from my last runway show before the quarantine. I remember this show clearly, I had been travelling a lot and I was really enjoying the evening but at the same time I was so tired from all the work. Fast forward a few months and what a different world we live in! it's kind of funny to think about how we had no clue about everything that was about to happen back then. I am happy to share this show with you and I look forward to many more!

Runway shows are one of my favorite jobs to do, I am a very physical person and I love the movement. Funnily enough, that is also the part of the modeling industry where you see the least diversity and that has the absolute most strict rules about the look of the models. To be a professional runway model, you have to be at least 1.76 cm tall (with few exceptions), and have some of the most strict body measurements in the industry. It is also one part of the modeling industry where you can make the most money. As a curvy model, I dream of being part of bringing more diversity to this part of the industry, and it is happening, one step at a time. That is one of the reasons I have taken a professional Pret a Porter education by Hernando Herrera and I do every single runway show I can get my hands on! Let's keep going! Have a look at the vlog below to see behind the scenes of the show!

To see the final video of the show, click below. Comment on the video if you spot me!

If you want to book me as a model, I have a full summertime offer, where you can book me for a day of work for just 99 euro, with 25 euro being donated to One Tree Planted, effectively planting 25 trees by booking a session with me! Click here to read more and book me
