Caprese pinwheels

I don´t read many magazines but there is one I make an exeption for. It´s called Zonder Meer, a dutch magazine full of recipes for people who have food allergies. This recipe is from the newest issue (Nr.6) all credits go to Zonder meer magazine. As the recipe is in dutch I have translated it into English. The pinwheels turned out so good that I didn't see any reason to change anything about the recipe.

Nutty brownies

One of my friends sent me this youtube video* knowing I'm always on the lookout for new recipes. After watching the video I decided to give these brownies a go. The only thing I changed is substituting the butter for coconut oil to make them lactosefree. If you do want to use butter in your brownies use the same amount as the coconut oil (130 grams).

Enjoy!
