Since finding out I have a pregnancy related liver disorder called cholestasis I have been trying to cut back on unnecessary fats and sugars in my diet. Just to give me liver a helping hand and fingers crossed keep my baby cooking till as close as possible to 40 weeks. Having said that I am still having a little as I don't want to be 100% sugar and fat free and leave my baby wanting for anything.
So as many of you know I have a real sweet tooth, so I have come up with this recipie so I can have my cake and eat it! Perfect served with a little low fat greek yogurt I think. Yum!
